bilder & de clercq

With the luxury of cooking every day there is sometimes the challenge of coming up with creative, delicious and at times easy recipes. In Hamburg and Amsterdam I discovered (ok - I stumbled upon), a new (for me) concept for cooking. Bilder & De Clercq is a perfect example of a new type of food shop. (It is not a supermarket and also not market - more a place where you find ideas and all the ingredients to match).

The concept: you walk in, choose a direction and start exploring. Each section provides a recipe and all the ingredients you need to make it. What I particularly like is that you can buy just one hot pepper (instead of a whole bag), one onion,  and if you are cooking for one, even one piece of sea-bass filet. The exact price of the meal is listed on the recipe card and the wine selection is nearby as well.

An easy way to make any dinner special any night of the week.
