Vinkeles in Grachtengordel-West

Great experience! We had a delicious meal and drinks! 10/10!

In my opinion, Vinkeles can be considered one of the best restaurants in Amsterdam. We enjoyed the atmosphere, the friendly, correct service and of course the sublime flavors of the perfect dishes and wines. An absolute must to treat yourself and your taste buds.

A great experience, both culinary and ambience and service! The friendliness of the staff is particularly noteworthy. Thank you for this unforgettable evening!

We (7) had the chef’s menu in Dec 2024. The food, the service, the setting - all exquisite and as you would expect at a fine dining location. But it went beyond this; it was a memorable experience in itself and worth every penny.

Hoge verwachtingen? Jazeker, we wisten waar we naartoe gingen. Een mooie lokatie, 2 sterren Michelin en een stevige prijs voor een Chef’s menu. Zijn die verwachtingen vervuld? Nee, jammer genoeg niet. Met bovenstaande kwalificaties mag je hopen weggeblazen te worden met iedere gang die gepresenteerd wordt. Gerechten die verrassen, bekoren en je tong strelen. Was het slecht? Nee natuurlijk niet, de lokatie is inderdaad fraai, het personeel vriendelijk en goed. Onze plaats iets minder, een tafel in de grote ruimte was leuker geweest, maar dat had waarschijnlijk te maken met het late tijdstip van reserveren. We zaten met z’n drieën in een soort van alkoof wat een beetje ten koste ging van de beleving. Het Chef’s menu had samenhang en ritme. Mooie producten prachtig opgediend maar zeker 3 van de 7 gangen waren te zout. En vrijwel ieder gang had het formaat van een amuse! Brood en boter is werkelijk heerlijk en wordt rijkelijk aangevuld gedurende de dis. Eerlijk gezegd spijt dat ik hier niet meer van gegeten heb want ik stond op met honger. Resumerend zijn we helaas teleurgesteld in het gebodene. En dat heeft dan ook wel te maken met de uiteindelijke rekening van ongeveer Eur825 voor 3 personen. Voor dat geld hadden we heel graag blij en opgetogen het restaurant verlaten.

High expectations? Yep, we knew where we were going. A beautiful location, 2 Michelin stars and a good price for a Chef's menu. Have those expectations been met? No, unfortunately not. With the above qualifications, you can hope to be blown away with every course that is presented. Dishes that surprise, delight and caress your tongue. Was it bad? No, of course not, the location is indeed beautiful, the staff is friendly and good. Our place was slightly smaller, a table in the large room would have been nicer, but that probably had to do with the late reservation time. The three of us sat in a kind of alcove, which somewhat detracted from the experience. The Chef's menu had coherence and rhythm. Beautiful products beautifully served, but at least 3 of the 7 courses were too salty. And almost every course was the size of an amuse-bouche! Bread and butter is truly delicious and is richly replenished during the meal. To be honest, I regret not eating more of this because I woke up hungry. In summary, we are unfortunately disappointed with what was offered. And that has to do with the final bill of approximately Eur825 for 3 people. For that money we would have loved to leave the restaurant happy and excited.

Another wonderful place in Amsterdam

We had a great dinner at Restaurant Vinkeles. From the moment we arrived at The Dylan, we were treated very well. The service was excellent and the menu inventive and delicious.

I came here over 5 years ago and still think about the carrots.

What an oasis in the middle of Amsterdam, beautiful ambiance with a sense of elegance by combining comfort, quality and originality. Beautiful wines with delicious dishes, rare combinations! Enjoyed lunch here in a secluded room which is also ideal for family dinners or business meetings. Highly recommended, a pearl in the heart of Amsterdam!!!

Wat een geweldige ervaring bij Vinkeles! Het eten was werkelijk subliem; elke gang was een feest voor de smaakpapillen. Het bijpassende wijnarrangement was perfect afgestemd op de gerechten en maakte de maaltijd helemaal af. Fantastische smaken, topservice en een intieme sfeer. Echt een aanrader voor liefhebbers van fine dining!

Vinkeles, gevestigd in het historische The Dylan Hotel in Amsterdam, biedt een unieke culinaire ervaring. Dit restaurant, dat bekroond is met een Michelinster presenteert gerechten die zowel visueel als smaaktechnisch helemaal top zijn De sfeer in Vinkeles is intiem en elegant. Het restaurant bevindt zich in een voormalige bakkerij uit de 18e eeuw, wat zorgt voor een unieke setting met een warme uitstraling. Het personeel is vriendelijk, attent en kundig, maar niet te formeel. De wijn is heerlijk en goed passend bij de gerechten. Wij hebben genoten van een avond Vinkeles en komen zeker terug.

Vinkeles, located in the historic The Dylan Hotel in Amsterdam, offers a unique culinary experience. This restaurant, which has been awarded a Michelin star, presents dishes that are top notch, both visually and taste-wise The atmosphere in Vinkeles is intimate and elegant. The restaurant is located in a former bakery from the 18th century, which provides a unique setting with a warm atmosphere. The staff is friendly, attentive and knowledgeable, but not too formal. The wine is delicious and goes well with the dishes. We enjoyed an evening of Vinkeles and will definitely return.

What a great experience at Vinkeles! The food was truly sublime; every course was a feast for the taste buds. The matching wine pairing was perfectly matched to the dishes and completed the meal completely. Fantastic flavors, top service and an intimate atmosphere. Highly recommended for fine dining enthusiasts!

Had an amazing experience - both the vegetarian and the non-vegetarian courses (with the wagyu) were simply mind-blowing. The chef's surprises, the seabream, the oyster, wagyu and the dessert were sublime and to-die for. In the veg courses - the main course (the porcini mushrooms) were absolutely divine. Just one thing that somewhat ruined the experience - being charged for water refills without being informed by the staff. It isn't nice to pay 50 euros for tap water when the staff doesn't inform you that refills aren't free. In terms of atmosphere, the restaurant is a little small and gets very loud, which I didn't appreciate that much.

We had an amazing time here. Service is very lovely, everyone is nice and friendly. Food was amazing, each dish had its unique flavor to it. It was truly a unique experience that I am so happy about.

Food and service were exquisite. The oyster entree left my girlfriend and me speechless. The pigeon was well balanced with the acidity of the cherries. The dessert had a lot of different textures that left us with a fresh palate. The sommelier and all the staff were extremely knowledgeable and very aware of details. Special mention to Valentino that treated us in a formal, yet amicable way. Would endlessly recommend! Keep the good stuff coming :)

Fantastic environment in The Dylan's restaurant. Vinkeles is located in the old historic bakery with one of the top kitchens in Amsterdam. Great service fortunately not stiff at all but relaxed. The service takes the time to explain the menu and later the dishes at the table. Fortunately, the wine list is not boring and even has a choice for less than 10 euros per glass. All dishes are tasty and refined. You certainly shouldn't miss the sweetbreads here. And for those with a sweet tooth, the friandises with coffee or tea are a sure thing.

This restaurant is impeccable in every category.. classic French cooking with a modern presentation. We loved every dish and wished for seconds on the pigeon and the poached oysters in beurre blanc. Our server was attentive and assisted by the maître and sommelier. Prices are extremely digestible for the quality of the restaurant. It is also situated in the beautiful Dylan Hotel. Thank you so much!

Went a while ago and had a very culinary evening! Everything perfectly prepared and tasty. An extra compliment for Jason, what a host 🥂

Worst Michelin experience ever. Please don’t waste your money here! Total spam. The main dish (pigeon) was so salty that we kindly told the manager about how we felt about the taste. She had a very strong attitude and said “I think the dish is just having strong flavor” and walked away. We left the dish there with only a few bites and when the server were taking the dish back, we told them again (seems strange they didn’t even ask why I left it barely un-touched) that we didn’t like it and we have had many good main dishes at other Michelin restaurants. They didn’t even bother to respond with a strong, cold attitude (As if I’m the one who couldn’t appreciate). This is not the Michelin standard I was expecting, food and service. We have had many great Michelin experience worldwide and this one feels like a spam. Please reconsider and don’t come here. I sincerely hope you enjoy food elsewhere.

I always eat at Vinkeles when I'm in Amsterdam (at least, when I can get a reservation), and it has never let me down. My wife and I had a pre-dinner drink in their comfortable bar, and then went to the restaurant when we were ready. It looked as though they had some sort of high society event in a private room, but other than causing some noise, it didn't really bother us. The food and wine pairings were as good as ever. We will be back.

Very good food and service. But for a two star Michelin restaurant I would have expected a bit more. For a one star, would have been excellent!

The chef got his stars for a reason! If you’re wondering if the dinner is worth it, if it lives up to its reputation, or if you’ll enjoy every course… yes, yes, and yes! The wine pairings make a LOT of sense with this tasting menu. Of the Michelin restaurants I’ve enjoyed, this wine pairing was by far the best overall. My liking for it was not because the wines were exceptionally rare or exotic, but rather because they simply paired so nicely with each course. Fair warning there were a couple sweeter wines mixed in, but not so sweet as to teeter on out right misplaced dessert wines. With all this praise, I must add, this was surprisingly my second favorite Michelin experience in Amsterdam. The best overall remains the tasting menu at MOS, that we had the day prior, just outside Amsterdam Central Station. Vinkeles is absolutely fantastic, but it’s an unbelievably close second to MOS in my opinion. Truly special and would happily dine here again!

I thoroughly enjoyed the inventive cuisine, took a la carte and it did not disappoint. The 2 points for improvement for me are 1) cocktails; the presentation could be elevated to be on par with the food experience and 2) the service; some staff were great some stiff and not attentive enough (sorry for a 2*, one can be demanding… just a benchmark based remark) and to top it …we were asked if we had paid after moving to the courtyard for drinks with friends… the tone of the request was slightly condescending; dont ask your guests, in case of doubt check with the team. Please do your job this is not Gauchos. That was a bit of a mood killer.

The comments for this place are fake. They hired some people to concieve others to write a good comment for this place.

Everything was good, I suggest that

At the end of the conference, my husband and I had a meeting with a special guest and wanted to choose a fine dining restaurant to mark the occasion. We decided on Venkeles Restaurant. The meals were absolutely delicious, with beautiful presentations, a variety of ingredients, and unique combinations. The desserts at the end were fantastic, making the experience truly memorable. Interestingly, the restaurant is located where the first theater of Amsterdam once stood. The new cocktail menu is inspired by this rich history, with cocktails categorized into four different types. Non-alcoholic drinks are also available, which was great news for me ✨

Beautifully enter the Dylan and then be guided to the wonderful and elegant dining room of Vinkeles. We had a very nice table with a view of the magnificent historic patio, which is beautifully planted and lit. In combination with the skilled and attentive service, a dream venue to go out. We took the 6-course chef menu with an amazing cheese platter of Dutch cheeses. Nicely warm and very complete with delicious accompaniment. About the entire menu. Stunning in balance, execution and layout. We enjoyed it so much. After the fish dishes, we are often a bit disappointed with the meat mains. The wagyu that we were presented excelled in fantastic sear, especially because, I suspect with extra time, it was possible to also add the characteristic fatty alloy. Present impressive extra melting cooking. Never had such an excellent meal. Overall, great experience at Vinkeles. What a recommendation.

Had a delightful experience here!

Nous avons passé un très bon moment au restaurant Vinkeles. Le personnel était pro et attentionné et l'accord mets et vins parfait. Ma compagne étant allergique à l'ail, tout à été fait pour qu'il n'y en ait pas dans ses plats et nous vous en remercions de tout cœur. Le repas était magnifique, mention spéciale pour les crevettes , la sole et le pigeon, ainsi que l'assortiment de fromages néerlandais avec son accompagnement d'un verre de macvin proposé par le directeur de salle. Nous recommandons sans restrictions, évidemment cela a un prix, mais l'excellence se paie.

Great dining experience with exceptional food and service

One of the best restaurant experiences. It is more than just having a meal. The food is innovative and tasted great. Fabulous!

I had a wonderful night at Vinkeles for a birthday celebration. The service was exceptional and the dishes and wine complemented each other amazing. If you want an amazing culinary evening, don't look any further :)

It is said that you should never meet your hero's, never tug on superman's cape and don't return to a restaurant expecting the same experience. This is not the case with Vinkeles. We dined here about 20 months ago and I wrote a five star review. My sister and I returned last night to honor the passing of our father. The second you step food in the place, you are greeted with warm professionalism as though you are in someone's home. The restaurant, once a bakery, is so cool and inviting. The elegant and sparse tables are simply set with a precision rolled and folded crisp napkin. Noticing the grand mirrors that flank either side of the wall they match the heavily lacquered ceiling beams. From there, dinner is off and running. Opting for the chefs vegetarian meal, everything is delivered to perfection. The staff are prompt, warm and friendly, but never out of step. Long thing trays or brought to the table by a food runner, only to be set on the table by a perfectly suited server and followed with a small cup filled with broth or cream or sinfully delicious foam. Poetic food descriptions make your mouth water as you then dive in to discover these taste sensations. One plate looked like a warm river stone with an exquisite mushroom and chest dish I will not soon forget. Course after course is served. Exemplary mason plus service done for each course. The restaurant only has maybe a dozen tables, but as each guest is moving along it is entertaining to see which course is happening for their table. Ok, so this is it folks. The best meal of my life and for the second time!! The chef came out to greet us and we were even walked to the door when we were done. Could not get over how fun this place is, just wish I didn't have to take a nine hour plane ride to get here.

Wij hebben met vrienden gedineerd in deze voormalige bakkerij dat deel uitmaakt van The Dylan. Keurige ontvangst met mooie amuses gevolgd door een fantastisch diner met heerlijke wijn. Op het menu stond makreel, tarbot, morilles, langoustine, hun signature dish Anjou duif (al ‘eeuwen’) en als dessert bloedsinaasappel. De bediening is onberispelijk, maar ietwat afstandelijk. De akoestiek blijven wij niet fijn vinden.

Excellent food delivered by amazing staff in a gorgeous surrounding. Thank you all for a great night!!!

I was there for celebrating my birthday. It was an incredible dining experience. They took care of us from start to finish. Impeccable service and food that is out of this world!

Delicious food, great wine and professional and friendly staff! Many thanks to the team for making this happen!

Grande cucina, ottimo servizio di sala, in un ambiente molto curato con un recupero architettonico perfetto delle vecchie cucine. Tovagliato perfetto, così come i bicchieri e la posateria, una chicca i magnifici coltelli di Scarperia in Toscana. Lo chef’s menu è un percorso articolato dove la ricerca non tradisce mai il sapore di ogni singolo ingrediente. La wagyu e la langoustine si tutto. Il servizio di sala è molto attento, ma mai invasivo. Jason Hunt un perfetto “padrone di casa” e Natasja Noorlander ha fatto scelte perfette nel wine pairing. Compagni di un bel viaggio. Un posto dove ritornare con un po più di tempo.

I had the pleasure of dining at Vinkeles and it was the most special evening! The food was just spectacular and I was impressed with how everyone working in the restaurant was so willing and able to discuss the menu and wines, it really shows the shared passion of the whole team and pride in the product. Would definitely recommend Vinkeles as it was such an amazing and unique dining experience!

Wow, stunning experience! The chef is a master of sauce, you discover how much it can be important to a dish... That's fantastic!

Enjoyed a dinner with 3 in restaurant Vinkeles, and all I can say is "wow!". Every dish, from the appetizers to the dessert was an amazing combination of flavours, that were only enhanced by the amazing wine pairings, that were so expertly and enthusiastically explained. Every staff member worked together seamlessly, which was just as wonderful to enjoy as the dishes. All with all an absolutely delightful evening out, and one of the best dining experiences I have enjoyed. Cannot recommend Restaurant Vinkeles enough, a must try, whether you are a local or visiting Amsterdam.

We have been there for breakfast. Food and drinks were good.

The environment of old bakery and boutique hotel combined from the entrance. It's definitely Michelin stars service, food, presentation. Taste is extremely sophisticated, service is flawless.

Fantastic meal. Very nice atmosphere, top wines and professional service. Absolutely recommended

Experience a wonderful evening with fantastic gems of dishes, served by super hospitable staff. The choice of vegetarian menu was surprising and delicious. Our party enjoyed both menus with matching wine selection. And I don't like all wines and was allowed to taste them first. Great that this was possible.

I was particularly happy that they had a non-alcoholic mocktail pairings for each dish. The food was really inventive and unique (in a good way). The service is really friendly and makes you feel relax, even though this is a high dining place

I celebrated my friends birthday here. This is the first time I came after the last chef Denis left for Japan. The service was flawless. The food was delicious but slightly on the salty side for my liking but this could be very personal. Overall still very lovely and would still come all the time.

Excellent food experience in a cozy and private atmosphere! The service was impeccable. This restaurant deserves both of its michelin stars! I highly recommend the langoustine ( a l'americaine, lavender, nashi peer & chips )!

What I loved most was watching the top notch team work together to bring dishes to the table — truly professionals that enjoy their job. Everyone was sophisticated and friendly, fine dining without the air of arrogance. The wine pairings were fantastic. I’m usually not a wine person but figured it’d be a nice splurge on vacation. I was wow’s by the unique flavor profiles and textures from each glass. The food was spectacular, with a few fun off-menu surprises to start. I cannot recommend the anju pigeon enough! I’d love to return someday to try the vegetable menu!

Nice restaurant, pleasant and knowledgeable service, but unfortunately we have to be strict... is this sufficient for Michelin 2*? Amsterdam has several 2* restaurants...the competition is stiff, but even compared to France you may wonder whether this would be rated 2*. Of course it is in a 5* hotel....but that should not be an argument, rather a stick behind the door. It was nice, but it could be better.

Outstanding experience from start to finish. Couldn’t recommend more enthusiastically!

Wonderful ambience and service. The entire team was helpful and very friendly. The food was wonderful with each dish being interesting and excellent. We were spoilt with an anniversary card and extra dessert.

Ik ben zeer onder de indruk van deze culinaire beleving. De wijnen zijn top passend bij de gerechten. Het smelt samen en daar is echt over nagedacht. De afwisselende smaken zijn goed en enorm lekker. Wat een op en top restaurant. En echt de gastvrijheid is uitzonderlijk goed. Ga zo door en tot een volgende keer.

Nice experience. The food was tasty and the service was top notch.

Fantastic gastronomic dinner with friends. We opted for the full tasting menu which surpassed all our expectations. Beautifully balanced cuisine, very precise and complex flavors, top quality ingredients. Personal favorite was the European lobster. Incredible historic setting and service to match, friendly and genuine. Great selection of wines, will return without a doubt.

Je suis allée fêter mon anniversaire dans ce lieu magnifique pour le passage d'une dizaine importante. Mes fils m'ont conviée. Les 2heures 1/2 de dégustation du chef's menu ont été un enchantement gustatif rythmé par la gentillesse et la bienveillance d'une équipe attentive et chaleureuse. Merci de tout cœur pour cette soirée inoubliable et toutes vos marques d'attention. Je recommande vivement ce restaurant

Zeer geslaagde avond gehad bij Vinkeles. Niets op aan te merken!

It was an amazing experience we will never forget. The staff is friendly, helpful and the food couldn’t get any better. 100/100!

Leuke sfeer, meer variatie aan eten, erg lekker, snelle service. ...

Heerlijk avond gehad. Super lekker gegeten, top bediening en een fantastische omgeving. Deze raad ik zeker aan!

Heerlijk gegeten ik kom zeker terug

Fantastisch gegeten en geweldig bediend. Een van mijn beste ervaringen in een restaurant. Zonder twijfel 5 sterren!

I absolutely loved this place. The food the service, the wine pairing, the dimmed lights and the beautiful building... Just everything about it was sublime! Can't wait for the next time I come here! I got the Vegetable Menu and my friend the Chef's Menu with the Wagyu. The white wine I got first I will never forget. Thank you for the great experience!

Hier is dineren een groot feest. Geen verlangens meer over.

Wir hatten das "Chef's Menu" und damit das beste Essen seit Jahren. Und wir gehen wahrlich oft und leidenschaftlich gerne essen. Jeder Gang war eine Freude. Als Option haben wir die Taube gewählt und gut daran getan. Kurz gesagt, das Vinkeles ist ein ganz dringende Empfehlung!

Alles war fabelhaft an diesem Abend. Wir hatten das 'Chef’s Menu'. Die Speisen waren von sehr guter Qualität (Wagyu und Langoustine waren herausragend), der korrespondierende Wein ganz wunderbar und der Service stets präsent und freundlich. Wir hatten einen sehr schönen Abend. Sehr empfehlenswert.

Wonderful fine dining experience in Vinkeles restaurant. Premium service experience can also be provided here as well as food quality.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Vinkeles and I must say, it was an absolutely delightful experience from start to finish. The waitstaff at this establishment were not only kind, but also incredibly professional, making me feel welcome and attended to throughout the entire evening. I decided to indulge in the chef's menu, which consisted of seven exquisite courses. Each dish that was presented to me was a true work of art, both visually stunning and bursting with incredible flavors. From the very first bite to the last, I was in awe of the culinary expertise that went into creating such masterpieces. The attention to detail and the precision in execution were truly commendable. What impressed me the most was the perfect balance of flavors in each dish. Every ingredient seemed to have been carefully selected and thoughtfully combined to create a harmonious symphony of tastes. The textures were also spot-on, adding an extra layer of complexity to the overall dining experience. Not only were the dishes exceptional, but the plating was also impeccable. Each course was artfully presented, showcasing the creativity and meticulousness of the chef. It was evident that a great deal of thought and effort went into every aspect of the meal, and it truly elevated the dining experience to an extraordinary level. Overall, my visit to this Vinkeles restaurant was an unforgettable one. I wholeheartedly recommend this establishment to anyone seeking a truly remarkable culinary adventure.

Restaurant is located in a beautiful building on one of the nicer canals of Amsterdam. Very nice interior, with details from the past, when the dining room was a bakery. Food was excellent, really rich and full of flavors, especially with the sauces. French with some Japanese influences. Service was great as well, quite international, as you can expect in Amsterdam.

We had an incredible fine dining experience in this place.. The restaurant's location is in the heart of Amsterdam, with stunning ambience. The food, wine pairing, and atmosphere were nothing short of perfection. The impeccable service and kindness of staff added a touch of magic to the entire evening. 🍷🥂✨ For all the fine dining enthusiasts out there, this place is an absolute must-visit! You won't be disappointed. #AmsterdamEats #FineDiningGems #UnforgettableExperience

Wou 100 sterren geven maar kon er maar 5 Van A tot Z meer dan fantastisch! Bedankt voor dit mooie moment.

The Restaurant is beautiful, excellent food and super service.

We tried the chef’s menu and it was incredible! Great service and beautiful presentation.

Amazing restaurant. Romantic ambiance. Low lights, dark tones, quiet environment, tablecloths. Despite being a Michelin starred restaurant food is surprisingly delicious and recognizable. Friendly service. Book with plenty of time, hard to get tables.

Besonders bleibt mir ein Gang des Menüs in Erinnerung: eine Scheibe gegarter Sellerie mit Molasses-Sauce und darüber gehobelte Wintertrüffel. Das war Wohlgeschmack pur. Auch die übrigen Gänge waren sehr präzise gekocht und geschmacklich top. Der Service war sehr aufmerksam und arbeitete perfekt zusammen. Wir fühlten uns in diesen historischen Räumlichkeiten sehr wohl und konnten uns zuvor noch an der gut sortierten Bar aufwärmen.

Very nice dishes and place bur the menu is too short

The ambiance the food the wine all five star. It’s worth the money and we can’t wait to dine there again soon with our family.

Vinkeles. Dit prachtige restaurant, onderdeel van het Dylan hotel en gesitueerd in een voormalig 18-eeuwse bakkerij, bezochten wij op mijn verjaardag. Een mooier verjaardagscadeau kon ik mij niet wensen. Samen met mijn gezin genieten van mooie gerechten en heerlijke wijnen. Op de eerste plaats complimenten aan de bediening die, op een hele rustige en fijne manier, ons in de watten legde. Brood, boter, water, alles werd op tijd gebracht. We gingen (zoals altijd) voor het chef's menu, met bijpassende wijnen. We aten hamachi (vis), krab uit de Noordzee, zeeduivel, zwezerik, duif, wagyu vlees met kaviaar, kazen uit Nederland en chocolade toe. Allemaal heerlijke gerechten, gebasseerd op de Franse keuken met hier en daar Japanse invloeden. De bijpassende wijnen waren ook heerlijk, van Spanje tot Zuid-Afrika en Oostenrijk en bij het vlees mooie Franse klassiekers. Bij de koffie en de friandises kreeg ik nog een persoonlijke felicitatie van het hele team. Een leuke verassing op een zeer geslaagde avond.

The best service I have experienced in a restaurant! Definitely recommend.

Update 2022: Impeccable professional and kind staff. The food was good and beautiful, but I missed the wow effect. Still recommended (photos are from 2022) The staff is professional and very kind. The food is excellent. The restaurant is elegant and comfortable. Recommended.
