Bakken met passie a bakery, patissery just in the bakery itself. Baking bread how it should. Baked on a stone oven floor, sourdough and a lot of time to proof. And a good place to go for a real french baquette as well. Very attentive and nice staff. Just past it the other day and being hooked on the bread of BBrood ... this will be on my list as well.


Pay them a visit. Don't start on the Chocolat explosion because that's out of this world. Unbelievable how suttile how very well done. It's to die for, haven't had a chocolate patisserie like this in a long long time. And I do eat a lot of chocolate .. Big compliments. Just take a bite, look for all the different tastes in there ... wouw briljant. Carrot cake is also very well, but the chocolate one stands out !!!

Time to test breakfast as well ... :-)

The Fat Dog ... it just opened her doors. The new concept from Ron Blaauw. A just plain well known hot dog. Although plain ... the quality of the ho dog is superb. Three kinds, 'plain', lamb and vegetarian. And than in several variations. A few examples ...

The Roy Donders (:-)) plain with just ketchup and mustard.
Gangs of New York - sauerkraut, onion marmelade, yellow mustard, bacon.
Casablanca - Lamb sausage, Baba Ghanoush, Cummel cucumber, spicy mayonaise.

Next to that they also serve some small side home made dishes like Rillete de canard, cheese cake and chocolate cake.

They are still in upstart phase. Wines and champagne were not chilled, the fried onions were not filled, the mint was not in. So they need to fine their way a little bit. A lot of staff for this place and could be more attending the quests, although contact with guests is perfect.

Prices are good, quality is good. A real treasure for Amsterdam ... :-)
