• 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. Additionally, somehow being just off the highway does not spell out – gourmet extravaganza. Even though architecturally it is eye-catching, one does not derive a sense of – “oh this will be […]

• Buffalo Steakhouse at Scheldestraat

  

  For our first lunch in 2019 we went to the Buffalo Steakhouse. The hospitality of this place is par excellence. Our warm host (who strode in wearing a cowboy hat that looked more genuine than kitsch) made sure we were comfortable and well looked after. They boast of using fresh and finest ingredients, this was […]

• A Private Lunch Party at The Indian Kitchen

  

  I am in food heaven. With the amount of grub I have gluttonously devoured this afternoon, I don’t think I will be able to move till tomorrow. We have eaten a couple of times before at The Indian Kitchen, but I sloppily did not record it for the blog. Admittedly, each time the food has […]

• Made with Love by Tagore at Utrechtsestraat

  

  Going to Made with Love by Tagore is always an absolute joy. Firstly, the owners, previously Mr. and Mrs. Nayyar, and now their youngest daughter Pamela and her partner Sunny, are the sweetest, kindest, and loveliest people you are ever going to meet in Amsterdam. They serve the food with meticulous care and make sure every […]

• All You Can Eat at Fussia

  

  This post is long overdue. I had written out the content but not had a chance to edit the pictures. Between creative writing, editing my thesis, preparing for the class I am currently teaching, and carving out time for family, there was barely any room left. When I finally got around to choosing the shots […]

• My Name is Khan Korean Restaurant

  

  We had some delicious Korean food at Khan Amsterdam. This is a matter-of-fact joint, with decor that spells neighbor’s barbeque picnic rather than evening dinner restaurant. I found it charming in its no-fuss approach. A bit away from the center and the more popular De Pijp, located in Nederhoven, Khan is a bit off the […]

• Year 2017: Best Place to Dine in Lisbon is…

  

  Drumroll please….. Meson Andaluz Address: Travessa do Alecrim nº 4 1200-019 Lisboa I can’t recommend Meson Andaluz enough! We had two amazing evenings in this wonderful little restaurant. Carlos recommended the most delicious regional tapas. The care given to each dish, the ambience, the indulgent service, and attention to little details made all the difference. […]

• Lisbon day 3: Oceanario, Mercado, and Urban trekking

  

  On the third day in Lisbon my true love said to me, Wear walking shoes, eat good breakfast, and take pictures plentifully…. For children and grown-up children like me the Oceanario de Lisboa is a wondrous place. Aquariums are such a joy, their darkness cocoons you, you feel isolated from the world, above and beyond, […]

• Lunch at Loetje aan de Amstel

  

  I absolutely love Loetje aan de Amstel. The decor is modern, fuss-free, chic, with striking elements. The food is out of this world. The steak was perfect. The burger polished off in seconds. The Dover Sole, seasonal, fresh, and so delicate. I was in food heaven. We have been dining at Loetje for ten years […]
