I found a grocery story in Amsterdam, which is equivalent to Whole Foods Market and Trader Joes! I…read morealmost fell out when I saw that they had a whole row of gluten-free foods.Amsterdam is known for being very health food friendly. If your one of those people with many allergies, or just want to eat healthy while your on vacation, then I would suggest doing your grocery shopping at Natuur Winkel. There are "health food" stores all over called "Natuur Winkle" and most of the regular super markets such as Albert Heijn, also sell plenty of Gluten-free items. They even know the proper way of recycling bags from the store. I wish more stores would try this recycling method. http://www.natuurwinkel.nl

This is the best named grocery store ever. A gluten-free-gold-mine!read more

Everything in the shop is for sale, including tables and chairs. There is a kinderhoek for the children. This is a must - not only for the gluten-free set - but for those that are interested in good food, great household items, good stuff to take to eat. Make this place part of your life when you are in or around Amsterdam West!

Alright. Phhooooooo....okay…read more I'm a stuck-up, super-spoiled, vegetarian-mega-brat. Why? I come from Los Angeles where if you want a macrobiotic, vegan, raw, super-green slice of ANYTHING, we've got it. It's pretty much amazeballs. Really. We do it up in California without any pretentious vibes at all. We're just super stoked to be healthy and that's that. Oh, we also like options. So, when I heard about Unlimited Health yesterday from my holistic masseuse (Massage Marin - I've reviewed her, she's ridiculously great), I was so pumped. Their website looks stellar - they have a cafe+juice bar+restaurant. Yoga and detox center, too, but I'm not a stretchy kind of gal. So, I grabbed a friend this morning, hopped on our bikes and rode over there, so elated for the insta-health we'd find here. The setting is bland. No music. Feels like a cold cafeteria in a hospital. Granted, it was only around 11:30am, so maybe the older women working there just don't know ambiance is a 24-7 kinda thing? Not sure. Anyway... The grocery store. It has a small, but neat assortment of raw snacks. An okay assortment of supplements. Water bottles. Green powders. Skin care. Okay, good. So, there's stuff I can buy to feel awesome. Oh, but wait. 10euros for 300 grams of a raw cereal? You're, like, kidding right? Right? 40euros for a small green powder. Um, you are SO funny, store! What a crackup. Right? Right? Bottom line: the concept is ok. However, you're getting ripped off. The same products in the US go for half the price. Maybe more. It's nice to have a small grocer with even more upscale raw/vegan, etc. products...but come on. Is the wallet-raping necessary? I left with some kale chips and a shot of wheatgrass. I'll go back. For Liquid Aminos. After my paycheck. ;)

I truly will never understand how someone can give one to three stars for a place THEY ENJOYED…read more That's why I rarely take the stars seriously and look at what the person had to say, and if they are reasonable or not, most of the times they aren't. Yelp rant over. I walked past this nut shop for the past four years, yet for some unknown reason I never made it inside even with the luxurious smells permeating the street. Last week, I was craving some chocolate peanuts and I am so glad I went here! So tasty and fresh and I also took some salted cashews which were also so tasty, I finished 500g total in 3 days. The owner was very friendly and made me feel welcome which is already a lot nicer then more than half the stores in Amsterdam.
