One truffle is not the other

Another hobby of mine is cooking. I love food, good wines and to cooke for friends. I'm really fond of fresh ingredients and dishes that are being prepared with care and creativity. One of the ingredients for which you can wake me up in the middle of the night is truffle - truffle on pizza, in pasta, on meat, in sauce. truffle truffle truffle. The truffle I'm used to cook with, i've learned this weekend, is winter truffle, dark truffle.
Winter truffle tastes nice and soft. But i've met the white truffle. White truffle has far more taste than the dark truffle. Also the structure is amazing.
You are probably curious where I've tasted the white truffle. For everybody who lives in Amsterdam or who has the idea to come and visit the capital, please go and visit Madelief . Madelief is a very cute restaurant close to 'vondelpark'. The owners are very warm people who enjoy serving good food to people who appreciate quality. To buy this truffle they went all the way themselves to Umbrie to buy it 100% fresh.

Please let me know if you've tried it or if you have other great ideas where to eat the best truffle.
