A Children Restaurant
In Amsterdam, the capital of Holland, there is a unique Children Restaurant. It is run wholly by the
children. From the manager to the cooks, cashiers, waiters or waitresses and other staff members are
all children form 6 to 12 years old. They themselves do all the necessary work such as cooking and
cleaning. These children are selected in Amsterdam. After training, they may serve in the Restaurant for
four weeks. All of them are willing to work there and they are very proud of the work.
This Restaurant was founded in 1983 by a woman cook, who wanted to give the children chances to
learn to be useful to the society. And now she is the only adult there, but her job is just to take care of
the children.
