The Dutch cuisine is not on top of most of the culinary rankings, but that doesn’t mean you can’t long to some of the typical Dutch treats. If you think of Dutch food the first things that come to mind are probably drop (licorice) and stroopwafels. And you’ve probably heard about the strange habit of eating chocolate sprinkles or hagelslag for breakfast. If you live in Ireland and you’ve tried it before and want to enjoy it again, or if you are curious how it tastes, please read this blog.
Irish cuisine
The Irish cuisine might not be mentioned in one breath with the Italian or the Thai cuisine, but is good food nonetheless. It is much more than potatoes and a whiskey on the side. Ireland knows a lot of great dishes with meat and fish and you don’t have to go to a restaurant to have some good food, since most pubs serve food as well. Nevertheless, you can still miss the Dutch food. Luckily it is easy to order Dutch products online at Dutch Expat Shop.
Availability of Dutch products in Ireland
Ireland is of course still part of the European Union, therefore it is easy for them to import Dutch products you would say. Despite that it is hard to find Dutch products and especially Dutch food. You might be lucky to find a special store or bump into some Dutch stuff by accident, but you’ll probably not find it in your local supermarket.
A nice treat on a rainy day
Ireland would not be this green and beautiful if it wasn’t for the rain. And with all the rainy days, you will often feel the urge to treat yourself to a nice beverage as soon as you get home from work. Those are the moments you might feel the need to have some typical Dutch treats like the Dutch craft beers or a nice cup of Dutch ‘Chocomel’. Both can make up for a bad day!
