The BBC's Hairy Bikers arrived in Holland ( plus Belgium and Luxembourg) today on the second leg of their Bakeation . The boys didn't have the most auspicious start having arrived in Holland's version of Blackpool complete with 'kiss me quick' hats!
Things took a better turn when Cy and Dave arrived in Scheveningen, stopping off at The Kurhaus Hotel on their way to an award winning local baker Driessen Bakery where amongst the speciality bread, our intrepid bakers made Apple Tart.

The bakery can be found at Gentsestraat 50   2587 HV  's-Gravenhage - Scheveningen  Tel:             070-3661947       

... it is certainly going to be one of the yet to be discovered gems that I plan to visit over the weekend. Their next call was at the eccentric Bakery Sonnemans  in Burgh Haamstede.
Having captured the eccentricity on the Dutch quite well the intrepid bikers headed across the border to Belgium.....if you are in the UK or have a VPN you can see this episode on the BBC iPlayer now [link].
