My friend lost a bet

My buddy lost a bet and is responsible for buying some smokeables. Being the jerk that I am, I was wondering what the best place to take him to would be, as far as a coffeeshops. I want to make sure he is buying the best, and a decent variety. Preferably someplace that has jelly hash as well. Most of the shops I like are small, with a limited variety (Grey Area, El Guapo, etc.), and I want to make sure he can buy enough of a variety to make losing the bet sting a bit.

Dampkring has some good Royal Jelly, maybe checkout Greenplace.

Peace,

Sound advice. That's the way to play this.

Barneys is indeed overpriced, but without the Irish breakfasts they used to have I refuse to go there. After they won the cup they just went downhill imo. I'd like to sting him, but more by taking him to a place that has a larger high end menu. Then he will have to buy quite a bit at a justifiably high price, and in a sense, we both win

If you really want to get yer hands on some high-priced, high octane gear then Bushdocter is where you should take yer pal. Unfortunately, the menus for Bushdocter at FBN's site are woefully out-of-date but they should give you an idea if how much they charge:

Bushdoctor Ice Menu from Feb. '09

Some salient points regarding Bushdocter:

Bushdocter specializes in expensive ice-o-lators ranging from €35 to €55 per gram. In the past, I've gotten wrecked on their Sunburst ice with no complaints. In general, they get positive reviews for their ice.*
Bushdocter sells weed as well but in 2g quantities only, so once again the cost is higher (which is what u want, right? )
They have 2 locations: one at Thorbeckeplein and the other on the Amstel. In keeping with their price gouging practices, you cannot sit upstairs without purchasing something to smoke and drink -- the budtender will actually physically block yer path. On the other hand, sitting on the Rembrandtplein getting baked out of yer gourd is a nice consolation prize.
As alluded to above, the staff can be a pushy, ill-mannered lot. Put on yer poker face and know what yer getting yerself into.
They're Italian and know how to make a decent espresso.

You should also take a look at the Coffeeshop Reviews section for Bushdocter.

Personally, I avoid Bushdocter for most of the reasons listed above, save for the last, but perversely, it seems to suit yer situation. Hope this helps.
