    I was in tinned fish heaven, LET ME TELL YOUUUU. They have so many amazing brands, and even a…read morecouple that I've never had, or can easily get online. if we weren't in such a rush to get home (out of state) I probably would've stayed here for hours! They have "THE" French butter, and yes I went home with $100 worth of butter. No regrets. The workers were quite welcoming, and the prices are NOT overly marked up at all. I was expecting prices to be more expensive than usual, but I was very surprised and delighted to see that it wasn't. Whenever I head to this side of Cali, I'll be sure to stop by here for my treats.

    Finally made it to this place, this is the 2nd time I went - first time I came by they were closed…read more This time I went on July 3rd in the afternoon and it looked small from the front but it's a huge warehouse once you walk in. My goal was to get some French butter as I saw they have a huge selection of it. I found so many other items like 3 freezer full of items like pain au chocolaté and croissants made in France. All you have to do is bake it at home. They also have frozen baguettes. I got frozen pastries and I also got some French butter and their selection is massive with different flavors. I typically get this butter at the grove but this place has sooo many varieties. I also picked up Italian flour (to make pizza dough) and canned pizza sauce that they recommended. I picked up some Patata Torres chips as well. Will definitely be back to explore the store more. Definitely worth the visit if you're into cooking and like gourmet foods.

    This tiny store has been around for decades. The owners have changed, but they still manage to…read morekeep the same vibe and hard to find, imported Dutch products as before. If you are Dutch, or even a wannabe, you will be delighted. The last time I came here was at least a decade ago, but one bakery item stuck in my head all these years. I wondered if I could still find it. It was a thick cookie filled with delicious almond paste. After receiving a very friendly greeting, I wasted no time in asking about said cookie, and by golly, they had it. A different brand, different shape, but the same delicacy. Go straight to the refrigerator section to pick up a package of Almond Fingers. Irresistable. Finding this was way too easy, so I figured I needed to browse some more. The store clerk escorted me around, telling me about their products and answering all my many questions. She pointed out another favorite Dutch cookie, a crisp cookie great for dunking, shaped like a windmill. This is loaded with a wonderful blend of "Christmas" (my words, not hers) spices, and not too sweet. In case you are wondering, a small package landed in my shopping bag, too. And once home, it passed my taste test with 10/10 stars. In spite of being small, the store also carries a delightful inventory of canned and packaged goods and even some cute, Dutch knick knacks, like blue and white ceramic spoon holders and salt & pepper sets. You will find their candy section full of many options, including several brands of Dutch chocolates and real Dutch licorice. I love adventures like this! I only wonder why there is no such thing as a Dutch themed café in this area. We are missing out.

    While it is a relatively small store it does have a nice selection of the most popular items. I…read moredid not notice any items that were past there expiration date as some other reviews mentioned. Service was excellent. Purchased some homemade Lemper which were great tasting.
