• Dinner at the Sky Restaurant Pi

  

  We had an unexpectedly delicious dinner at the Sky Restaurant Pi at the Fletcher Hotel. “Unexpectedly” because the decor did not look promising.

• Lunch at Indian Street Food & Co, Amstelveen

  

  One of the things I have often complained about living in Amsterdam is the glaring lack of street food. As someone who has lived in Asia and the Middle East, the paucity of options on this front has been a constant niggle. This also stood out to me in New York, although it is a […]

• New Lunch Menu at Loetje

  

  My love for Loetje is well-documented. I continue to enjoy their food and service. They have revamped the lunch menu and offer poke bowls, which are quite trendy at the moment. I had mine with “biefstuk” – it was delicious, beautifully cooked meat, succulent and full of flavor. The men in my life enjoyed their […]

• Oriental Tapas at Ruby Restaurant

  

  Ruby Oriental Restaurant has a long history with us. Our second winter in Amsterdam, Apoorva and I fell dreadfully sick. We were young parents to a six-month old, horribly ill with the flu. Ruby was located opposite our house and we genuinely believe it was their phenomenal wonton soup that nursed us back to health. We used […]
