Have you ever ordered a rice table to try the classic dishes of Indonesian cuisine? That won't get you very far in Indonesia. Because the “rijsttafel” is a typical Dutch dish! Which in turn consists of various Indonesian dishes. If you like authentic Indonesian cuisine such as rendang, sayur lodeh, sambal goreng buncis or acar, the Netherlands is the place to be. The reason for this lies in Indonesia's colonial history. The country was a Dutch colony for 350 years. After independence in 1945, many Indonesians moved to the Netherlands. And they took their culinary traditions with them. Today, there are hundreds of Indonesian restaurants in the Netherlands. Perfect for an Indonesian food tour.
