The Dutch Shop at 89 Jackson Street opened 20+ years ago because the owners missed great biscotti. Biscotti is now sold alongside salty liquorice, crunchy speculaas and Gouda with nettle, cumin and pepper.
Across the road, cardamom wafts out to greet you at The Spice Rack, the perfect stop for curry supplies and flavours for soups and stews.
