It's the year 1856. Twenty-two-year-old Adolph Wilhelm Krasnapolsky arrives in Amsterdam. With a tailoring diploma in his pocket, the young clothier secures a job at ‘Winkel van Sinkel’ following in the footsteps of his sewing father and grandfather. After a hard day’s work, Krasnapolsky often finds relaxation in the coffee houses around Dam Square. In 1866, the aspiring entrepreneur takes over an old and run-down cafe. That shabby coffee house will become the foundation of the legacy we know nowadays.
