Actual Augie Snack Tour of Amsterdam

Augie was kind enough to take us on a customized and highly personal snack tour this morning.

Our first stop Confectionery Lanskroon was for the famous Dutch stroopwafels which are basically two crisply fried thin waffle cookies with caramel smushed in between.

On the way to our next stop we passed a shop with a window designed to lure our friend Don inside.

Next stop was at the Febo, which is an automated junk food dispensing machine. Augie picked up a deep fried croquet with a veggie filling to make it into a proper health food. See it in action here: https://photos.app.goo.gl/ULfuxpoBRWn2esBM8

Next Nancy took us 3 miles out of the way to buy some bread.

On the way home Augie took us to Vleminkx, the place to go for the best Belgian/Flemish fries in Amsterdam. The tour guide behind us in line explained that Northern Belgium and Holland were both Flanders until the mid 1800s. Regardless, the frites were really good and well slathered in mayonnaise.Read more
