 welcome thuis

can't find cream of tartar, cornhusks, jalapenos?  maybe you want to know where to buy amazing bread...it's all right here.

Allergies:
le poole
allergic to wheat?  you can buy wheat free products online here.  also some health food stores sell gluten-free products and some albert heijn's too.  

Local/Fresh:
albert heijn
want to shop like an american and buy a week's worth of groceries at a time?  live on the 4th floor with no elevator? albert heijn delivers.  shope online (in dutch), choose a day and time window and they deliver to your door.  it's easy and convenient.  


beef en steak
this place is out of control!  they sell an amazing selection of meat- brisket, pork tenderloin, t-bone steaks AND they deliver to your door the next day.  their prices are also very good- i need a bigger freezer.  

culinaire versmarkt
i found this on the internet.  i haven't ordered from them, but it looks pretty cool.

de krat.nl

this is the highlight of my every other friday.  10:00 am brings me a delivery of yumminess. bread, cheese, meat, veggies, sometimes fruit and an extra- juice, rosemary olive oil.  the send you recipes for the items in the krat (in dutch), but are super nice and speak english if you call.  everything is local and some things organic.  we get the krat for 2+ every other friday and it's enough for two people and it lasts. 

Hungarian Online:
lekkers uit hongarije  
crave hungarian food?  need ingredients?

Indian:
natco
they are located in the uk and ship to the netherlands.  they seem to have a large selection and their ground spices are gluten free.

Mexican Online:
cool chile
i'm a sucker for nice packaging and they have it.  simple, but nice.  they are in the uk and they ship to the netherlands, but their shipping costs seem to be pricey.

mex world
this place sells mexican ingredients online, which of course means, they deliver.  no more searching all over amsterdam for those corn tortillas or chipotles in a can. 

Peppers:
pepper king
it's called the pepper king, but you will shell out some $$ for fresh peppers.  check local places first (hanos) before ordering from here.  they also carry bar-b-que sauce and other ingredients that make my mouth water.

Tokos:
volkskruidentuin
they have an amazing supply of ingredients you can't find anywhere.  lots of spices and vanilla (clear or brown). 

wah nam hong
a toko sells all of the ingredients you are looking for, but can't find at the normal grocery stores. chinese, thai, american, japanese, indonesian.  this toko is pretty large, but it's not in the city center.  

Turkish Markets:
these are everywhere around amsterdam, however usually not exactly in the center.  i know there are a ton in the oost
(javaplein/dappermarkt).  veggies, meat (halal and not all stores have a butcher), fruits are lower priced than albert heijn, but sometimes their canned goods are a little higher priced than albert heijn (large coucous, phyllo dough).  i usually shop at my turkish market and then go to albert heijn for dairy/cleaning items.

versmarkt
this reminds me of a turkish shop, but no meat.  interesting
site and they deliver in amsterdam

US Foods Online:
us foodz
online shop only for....us foods, naturally.
