Laromme is a Jewish bakery shop located in A'dam's Jewish epicentre Buitenveldert. Several supermarkets in that area sell a small selection of the bakery, but sadly not the croissant-like puff pastry which just so happens to be what I'm most interested in.
Luckily, today I discovered where the mothership is located. Well, actually misfortune brought me there. After first being denied service at another Jewish shop (they much rather threw the pastry in the bin then serve it to this shiksa, seriously), I was "kindly" directed towards this bakery.
Since they didn't seem to happy with my presence at Laromme either, I thought it was most advisable not to whip out my camera, so no pics.
Anyways, Laromme has a wide variety of croissant-like filled puff pastries (both savory and sweet). The sweet are more croissant-like, the savory more puff pastry-like. Some of my favorite burekas: chocolate, cinnamon, poppy seed paste, potato, cheese & mushrooms.
Didn't see any bagels, though I wasn't paying attention.
My stomach doesn't discriminate, just wish they would do the same. read more
