Larry’s menu usually features plenty of Asian combinations. Still, the young Amsterdam entrepreneurs behind Larry’s, Mathieu and Simon, wanted to try something typically Dutch for a change. To celebrate Amsterdam’s 750th anniversary, they joined forces with two Amsterdam icons: Holtkamp and Kesbeke.

Holtkamp, famous for its croquettes and patisserie, and Kesbeke, the king of pickles, have created something typically Dutch together with Larry’s, but in the form of a bao bun. The result? A sandwich that combines Dutch classics with an Asian twist. This is the bao bun croquette with pickle.

The unique combination: bao bun croquette with pickle

What makes this bao bun croquette so special? It’s all about the perfect combination of soft and creamy, crispy and tangy, making every bite a celebration. Larry’s soft bao bun, steamed to perfection, is filled with Holtkamp’s mushroom truffle croquette, which offers the perfect balance between creaminess and crispiness. Add Kesbeke’s piccalilli mayo and dwarsligger pickle to the mix, and you have a flavor combination that keeps surprising you.
