Opening Le Creuset

On Tuesday 16th September, we catered the official opening of our partner, Le Creuset's, first branded store in Holland. Press and food bloggers were invited to attend, along with guest of honor, Alain Caron, who also unveiled a new range of pots that will be available from November.

In honour of Le Creuset's French heritage, we decided to serve food with a French flavour. To start, we served Gougeres and toasts with wild mushrooms and Reblochon cheese. For mains we made Boeuf Bourguignon in small Le Creuset pots and to finish, a classic tarte au citron.

You can find the store on the Heiligeweg in Amsterdam.

Bilder & De Clercq

Amsterdam has of late undergone a lot of changes. There are so many exciting new places opening up and Bilder & De Clercq is one of them.

Bilder & De Clercq is a supermarket for the 21st century. The formula is quite simple. Gone are the days of having to think what’s for dinner and then compiling a list of ingredients.

Once in the store, you browse the 14 recipe tables and choose the dish you fancy. Take a recipe card with the ingredients shown and you’re good to go. All ingredients have been portioned according to the recipe. This means an end to buying more than you need for a recipe. It’s better on your wallet and less waste means it’s better for the environment too. Most recipes are designed for two people, but there are also some for those dining alone.

The store sells other products too such as organic wines, cookies, jams, hand-made bread and kitchenware. There is also a cafe where you can sit down and enjoy excellent single estate coffee and cakes.

Every week, a couple of the recipes are replaced with new ones, so that there’s always something for everyone.

There are 2 stores and you'll find them on the corner of the Bilderdijk and De Clercqstraat and on the Ceintuurbaan.

It may interest you to know the we are the chefs behind Bilder & De Clercq. We develop all their recipes and cook for and style the photographs.
