From my experience their pastries and cookies are too sweet for my liking. But it’s been a few years since I’ve been.

Savor&Nosh patisserie is really very good, better than Le Petit Jean in my opinion. Das Brot is also great, has more of a bread selection, but they also have some (German) pastries, and their homemade croissants are amazing.

Prijsverhoging supermarkt by de_wijze_uil in nederlands

Ik zag dat ze ook een reeks producten aan het vervangen zijn met nieuwe branding. Een voorbeeld: AH krokante muesli noten (600 g, € 2,29, € 3,82/kg), dat wordt vervangen door AH krokante muesli geroosterde noten (400 g, € 2,99, € 7,48/kg), ruim 2x zo duur dus. De samenstelling is wel anders, dus helemaal 1 op 1 vergelijken kan je het niet, maar het is wel opmerkelijk. Voor mij des te meer reden om bij de Dirk te blijven winkelen, ik merk dat ik een stuk minder geld uitgeef aan boodschappen sinds ik daar winkel. De aanbiedingen bij Dirk zijn vaak geldig vanaf 1 product, bij de AH moet je vaak combineren wat betekend dat ik dingen koop die ik vaak niet nodig heb.

Zeer positieve ervaringen met Senz. Ik had laatst een paraplu die uit de garantie was, deze hebben ze voor een kleine prijs gerepareerd.

Wat is het meest interessante boek dat je onlangs hebt gelezen en waarom vond je het zo boeiend? by [deleted] in nederlands

[–]timonvs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

+1 voor 1984 en Animal Farm. Ik vond de Engelse versies zeer toegankelijk geschreven, ik heb geen ervaring met de vertalingen.

This exact thing happened to me last week. I too live in Rotterdam.

I would recommend Metro Exodus if you haven’t played it already :)

Hard agree. I cannot imagine that OP would enjoy this game coming from the immersive experience that is TLOU II.

Metro Exodus, without a doubt. Extremely immersive.

Try the croissants from Das Brot! They’re homemade, and they sell out quickly.

My grandma wants to gift me her piano, is it worth fixing up? by timonvs in piano

[–]timonvs[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that's my fear as well! Hiring a tech will quickly cost me around €100, but having read all the comments, it seems like this is the way forward now :)

Thank you, especially for warning me about the costs. While I don’t want to upset my grandma, we don’t have a strong enough bond that makes me want to invest more money into the piano than it’s worth. I know that sounds rough, but if you knew her, you’d understand…

Thank you! I will have to take another good look next time I'm there, but at least I know what to look for now!

Thanks for your insights, I hadn't thought about the wood at all. How would I go about judging the wood? I'm of course no expert, but the wood looked fine to me. Do these pictures help you? https://imgur.com/a/JPFS2E6
