ZWAANSHALS street
Upon reaching the slagerij (butcher shops):
Seller:Wsalam.Hoe gaat met jouw? (how are you?)
Me: Prima.Alles goed? (Everything good?)
Seller: Ja hoor…(hoor is like “lah”in Singapore singlish)
Start looking around at the many types of wonderful meats they had. Drools if u have too…
Me: Hoeveel kost dit? (pointing to weird looking meat such as Rabbit and asking how much it cost)
Seller: $4.95 per kilo (Ok, this one I still cannot get the cents being said in a backwards sequence -“vier euro, vijf en negen ter “.Its tough when I need to say it but to understand is not a problem)
Seller pack the meat slowly and cut if I ask them to and then hand it to me
(I paid the money and wait for the change and head to the exit…)
Me: dank ker well, prettige dag verder! Dag! (thank you, have a great day ,goodbye!)
Simple right? hehehe!If I can do it, so can you!

Eh,nuggets, fries…and the Loempia/Popiah (spring rolls) skin look familiar, I think the HALAL logo is from Singapore…
In the same shop, all the way behind, there is a small MEAT CORNER
This is Ali, a young butcher. He is kinda cool, he will answer your queries regarding HALAL meat and if u need help with what type of meat and how to cook it, feel free to ask.These butchers are quite knowledgeable. Hmm…what shall we cook today?
Beef steak,lamb chop…
Minced meat,bratworst (cow/calf/sheep/lamb)
There is no goat meat in most shops .The closest to goat meat is sheep meat. 
Lamb ribs,sheep ribs,skotelet….
Cow’s Heart,chicken heart,liver and lungs….
and more chicken parts… (chicken feet, u need to order first and collect days later, anyway the chicken feet is tough and its not as yummy as back home,try at ur own risk…)
Some butchers sells Ox balls (dont ask me what and why, I dunno) , rabbit meat, intestines….. gotta ask them if not on display, sometimes, they kept it hidden due to unpopular demands…
This is one of my favourite Turkish pizzas,here. I cannot find anything similar in Singapore.I’ve tried many turkish/mediterranean food but most of their pizzas are thick.This one is thin (almost like crepe but not as soft) and normally they will ask u whether u want salad with it. YUMMY!!
The machine that knead the dough for the base of pizza….
The man in the kitchen…
Flatten the dough…with the help of this machine
Add tomato paste +minced meat
Baked into oven for 10-15mins
Salad? Yes please…the salad + creamy garlic sauce +chilli (if u want) then rolled and wrapped in aluminium.Best eaten there and then, on the spot! Cost about $1.25-$1.75Euro .
Soft bread eaten with dips?
I’ve tasted their sweets before, very sweet…some are too sweet for my liking.Most used pistachios in their fillings…i need to taste the baklava…
Hey,a festival is coming…
