This is my favourite adress for anything electrical, from rechargeable batteries to banana plugs, they have it. The store keeper is über Dutch. I never had or witnessed a conversation with him where he would not make a snide remark leaving the customer feeling hopelessly inadequate. If you can get over that, this is the best place in Haarlem to go when you need new dust bags for your vacuum cleaner.
This establishment in Haarlem is where you need to go when you need to repair or dry-clean your clothes. The people who run it are Turkish immigrants who are too well behaved to interact in a truelly Dutch fashion. To make up for that, they decided to offend the customer right of the bat with the name of the store. In my case i’m not only lazy, i’m also a weakling since i can’t make my wife to go there for me.
Not only do the Dutch love to offend, we love to use the English language whenever we can. I’m happy with that, since Handige Man / Luie Dame would not make much sense to most of you.
