Starters of satay with a new sauce I didn't identify and dumplings were good. The entrees were fantastic. A mix of Chinese and Indonesian offerings. Drunken beef, a soft boiled egg in a sweetened sauce (a first and awesome), sizzling shrimp, duck!, Indo stewed beef also a winner. More satay chicken with a peanut sauce, yum. 10 dishes in all for eight of us lined up along the tables. Greatness on a side street.

This is Chinese-American restaurant run by an English and Dutch speaking American couple (she has a…read moreChinese background). For 6.95 Euro one gets two main dishes and a side like rice, in ample quantities, well packed in a styrofoam meal container. The quality of the dishes is unusually good. No blandness nor anything overly saucy nor anything over or under cooked. It is just exactly right. The dishes are very fresh, flavorful (using various spices or fresh fruit based sweeteners). One can get spicy or sweet and sour dishes. Their crab rangoon dumplings are addictive, crisp and flavorful, without any greasiness. The orange flavored chicken truly tastes sweet and tangy with the tangy extra made with fresh orange peels and the sweetness with a special syrup. The general Tao chicken is more tasty (well spiced) than 90% of what one encounters in the USA or the Netherlands. The owners are very talkative and often experiment with improving their dishes and their cooking. In contrast to Dutch take outs which close either on the dot or way before official closing hours, this couple often stays open as long as there is business and will even prepare fresh dishes close to closing time, just to help customers. Generally they close between 8 pm and 10 pm, depending on the week day. Big benefit for expats is that they are fluent in English. The restaurant is located just off the main thorough fare called Willem De Zwijgerlaan. One turns at the traffic light and then thrice right to end up on a spacious free public parking. There are also a night convenience store and a hamburger take out restaurant in the same shopping strip. One can also order online. If one prefers to eat the food there, there is plenty of space to sit.

We came in for a late lunch around 2:30 so there were not a lot of other folks there. However, the place is massive and could easily seat over 100 people. There is a darker dining room and then a lighter dining room in the gazebo/greenhouse type of room. Our server gave us some recommendations but everything looked pretty good. The menu is Indonesian and Chinese influenced with lots of options (maybe a 6 page menu?). They also bring food heaters to each table to keep your food warm as you eat, which was a different/nice touch. Overall, the food and service was pretty good.
