I do have some places in mind that can become ironically romantic, if you visit them with the right person (i.e. anyone with a bit of sense of humor)...anyway, here they come:
- the harbour of Rotterdam. That's where we actually went on our second date.
Blade runner-esque neon lights, fumes and fires, secluded beaches just reclaimed from the sea, wild rabbits and nobody around but eager surfers and fishermen. Bring a takeaway and share it with your beau while looking at the sunset from the car;
- the La Place on the top of the V&D in Utrecht, as mentioned here. Get the dish of the day and a strawberry smootie with 2 straws and gaze dreamingly into each other eyes and over Utrecht's Domtoren and roofs;
- the EYE in Amsterdam, for some quality cinema followed by steamy cappuccino or dinner in the cafe overlooking the hustle and bustle of the Ij. (http://www.eyefilm.nl/)
- in The Hague, go to the VaVoom on the Grote Markt and toast the night away while sipping Dark&Stormies and Porn Star Martinis (http://www.gmdh.nl/vavoom/)
Whatever you opt for, enjoy your weekend!
