WELCOME RECEPTION & DINNER AT LION NOIR
We will meet at the entrance of the W Amsterdam to take a city walk along the canal to Lion Noir.
Lion Noir – a modern French restaurant with a lounge, cocktail bar and hidden garden in the heart of Amsterdam – offers an authentic culinary experience in a unique and intriguing setting.
Serge Rijn, owner and host of Lion Noir teamed up with Casper Reinders and Mr. Yen in 2010 and created Lion Noir in the historic “Gouden Bocht” on the infamous and happening Reguliersdwarsstraat in Amsterdam. Casper Reinders created the signature interior together with Thijs Murré and Serge Rijn, hand picking the diverse eccentric objects, making Lion Noir the elegant place it is. Lion Noir’s eclectically chic ambiance has won much admiration, including an Interior Design of the Year Award.
Chefs Sammy Chau and Ron Dijkstra create constantly evolving menus with a modern take on French classics with spices all over the world, reflecting the availability of locally-sourced fresh ingredients. The best available ingredients of the moment are reflected in their weekly changing chefs’ menu, consisting of local, seasonal and exclusive products.

WPI PERFECT PARTNERS AWARD
The Worldwide Partners Perfect Partner Award is our way of celebrating great partners within our network who help us cement our vision.
These are the Partners that are progressive and innovative, have responded rapidly, worked as an extended arm of your own agency – and acted with the highest integrity throughout the entire process.
We will recognize and celebrate these partners during our final awards dinner.
ABOUT PLLEK
This post-industrial spot near the NDSM Wharf offers one of the best panoramic views of the River IJ and its banks, stretching from the Cruise Terminal to the Silodam and beyond. Both the view and the organic delights inside attract an inclusive crowd from young and hip creatives to older locals keen to catch an alternative view of the city.
Constructed from old shipping containers and making the most of recycled materials and maritime objects, Pllek's interior is as memorable and welcoming as its exterior. And naturally, the quality of food and drink is high on the priority list too.
