Van Schaik is the name I have heard most often when I have asked around about expat investors people admire. I knew Jerry van Schaik back from when he was still running the Amsterdam Cafe.

Romania long-timers might remember Jerry Van Schaik from the early 2000, when he and a group of friends were starting the Amsterdam cafe in the old part of the city. Nowadays, those who like to spend their time at Jerry's new place, the Van Gogh cafe on Smardan street, also in the old part of Bucharest, must have seen him around quite often. In fact, it's almost impossible not to see Jerry around, at least once in a while – with his two businesses door-to-door, the Van Gogh cafe and the Rembrandt three-star hotel, he's around to manage the venture.
