Traditional Dutch Food - The Rijsttafel
Jun 30th, 2009
The most famous - and uniquely Dutch - international food in Amsterdam is the Rijsttafel. Rijsttafel means ‘rice table’ in Dutch, and consists of tiny servings of about a million Indonesian dishes. The concept of this kind of Indonesian feast was brought back to the Netherlands by Dutch colonists in Indonesia, who loved sampling small servings of the spicy and flavorful local dishes.
