Ordered:
Menu Biru (~€53/person): selection of street food including meat, fish, and vegetarian dishes, and dessert from the chef
Gin-Tonic Blauw 7 Rempah (~€13): their homemade gin with 7 spices (Lemongrass, Juniper, Coriander, Cloves, Lime leaf, Pandan leaf, Rawit pepper)
L'Autantique Chardonnay Languedoc (~€30/bottle)
Aya's take:
My first Rijsttafel! Rijsttafel translates into "rice table" which is an elaborate Indonesian meal adapted by the Dutch. Their downstairs section is semi-private although still very loud but it gave us all the opportunity to sit together and move freely. This kind of meal is perfect for our large party of 15 people as they bring out tons of dishes and plenty of food. You will absolutely not get up from the table hungry! Each dish was vibrant, insanely well-seasoned, and varied in flavor. I'm salivating just writing this. If you're in Amsterdam, I highly recommend having a Rijsttafel experience - Blauw is a great option for it. read more
