Paradox

Here's a funny story for you. Yesterday I bought a gram of K.O. at Grey Area but the place was full so I went to Paradox for a coffee and a smoke. When I got back to my hotel the gram of K.O. was missing and I figured that it had dropped out of my pocket when I was sitting at Paradox and pulled my smoking kit out. Today I went back and ordered a banana milkshake. I was too embarrassed to ask if anyone had found my weed and someone was sitting at the corner table under the mural where I'd been sitting so I sat nearby and waited. When the person left I moved my stuff to that table and looked under the magazine rack. There was my gram of K.O. intact and undiscovered in it's little ziplock baggie. I dropped my lighter near it, picked up both and left a generous tip.

really enjoying the ace/white widow from here - very strong, clean smoke, looks similar to the batch Stuart1976 purchased in Breda Pax De Boot... 3grams for 24 euro

Got 2 grams of cheese from here and i have to say it was the best cheese of my visit... nice, tasty, flavoursome, nice on the inhale and exhale, and good strong effect of stonedness and high. Much better than the HGF Cheese, that was leafy and had a fake taste, smell in comparison. Paradox cheese, big thumbs up imho!

Manali Jungle is shit, worst hash of the trip and not even something i would look at again. Cheese was okay but nothing special. Still great service and a cracking shop.

Between us we bought - purple, (not great, even for outdoor 5 euro for .9g) chocolate hash, (not very soft but nice taste to it 5 euro for .7g) chocolope and l.a confidential 12 euro a gram - one of which was really nice but I can't say for sure what strain it was.

Overall I thought was a nice shop, when we visited just us and 2 others in the shop, the budguy was sound - even if he did laugh at me for not being able to open the door (damn thing was stuck I swear)

Yeah the door sticks, I remember seeing people inside and thinking why is the door locked.

Ah now what can I say about this coffeeshop. Always my first visit when I get to the city. I'm a big fan of this type of coffeeshop, no frills, filled with locals, dutch literature, great strong coffee, nice food, great weed, great hash, wonderful knowledgeable owners. It has it all.

I am a big fan of the Bio Green here, Euro 16 for 2.8g. It's not the strongest weed there is, but in my opinion it's one of the best and most developed. It has a great flavour, burns beautifully, a nice buzzy high. I love going in there, lighting up a Bio Green joint and reading De Telegraaf on a weekday morning. It's not so deep that you can't wonder round the Joordan after a few joints. You can wonder around looking normal, but feeling altogether different. Lovely stuff

The Chocolope is nice and strong, good price. The NY Cheesel is also a good buy.

Great veggie burgers in here too. Nice budtenders who are always chatty and welcoming.

I'll be there in 2 weeks, and guess what, can't wait!

Closest shop to my hotel so i visited a few times. Had the LA Con, Chocolope and the Turkish. The hash was the standout of the bunch, I wish I had bought more.

Ended up near paradox on a wander through the jordaan so had to pop in for a sit down. Same great atmosphere, so we enjoyed a drink and a toke staring out the door at the world passing by.

I picked up a €5 bag of LA Confidential which was enough for a hefty joint of tasty stonedness. Only downside was it was near closing time so we couldn't stay too long. We did however get to have a look at the closing stock check.

I always wonder how this place is not that crowded. Never seen such a chill and cool atmosphere. Loved their Chocolope back in August.
One of my favorite CS!

Ask when your there next the owner didn't even bat an eyelid saying yes

Gonna add now coz I didn't try it there

that their Chocolata is bloody lovely , rock hard but a quick flame turns it fudgelike

a lovely old school hash smell & taste that reminds me of when I 1st started toking

The Chocolata is so much better when it's fresh (supple without a flame) but I agree it's a top fucking smoke, I love it - hell I love Paradox.
