While, it's not the best dim sum I've had (not sure if it's because I'm accustomed to having a Chinese-American palette), I enjoyed a change of scenery. Outside the store, you'll find the menu outside to entice you to come inside. From there, you climb a staircase that leads to a spacious restaurant with modern Asian décor. Daily, they offer both a Dim Sum and a Chef's Special Menu. For my beverage, I ordered a Milk Tea, but found the milk tea to be diluted with water.

Authentic Dim Sum in the Heart of Amsterdam If you are looking for authentic Chinese flavors near…read morethe Red Light District/Chinatown, Oriental City is the place to go. It's a multi-level restaurant that stays packed during prime hours, which is always a good sign for the food quality. They serve Dim Sum all day, which is a huge plus. The flavors are very traditional. While the Dim Sum was solid across the board, the Beef Chow Fun was the absolute standout--perfectly prepared with that signature "wok hei" (breath of the wok). The staff isn't necessarily warm and fuzzy, but they are efficient. Don't expect a long chat, but you'll get your food quickly. Be prepared for a bit of a climb; the restaurant spans several floors and it appears to be stairs-only. It gets very crowded, so timing your visit is key. A must-visit for Chinese food fans in Amsterdam. Just be ready for a lively, busy environment!

After I read the reviews for Foodhallen, I thought there would be more vegan options. Regardless, I…read morewas relieved to see that Dim Sum Thing had a veggie option. I asked if the dumplings were vegan, and after some asking around, they said yes, so I ordered the steamed veggie dumplings with soy sauce on the side. The outside of the dumplings was as soft as a cloud. On the inside, they had great textures. The flavor was okay. I thought the price was a bit high for 4 dumplings. If I were in the area, I might give them another try. Also, I found the name and decor to be cute and clever.

We were immediately greeted and seated in this nice restaurant with a great ambiance. The service was amazing and most importantly, the food was delicious. It was authentic Cantonese food. It is definitely top 10 Cantonese cuisine for me in the whole world outside of China. The duck was perfect with its slightly crispy skin and juicy meat over a bed of wide rice noodle. The sweet and sour fish was perfectly sauced. The Buddha's Delight came out and I was skeptical about how it would taste because it looked bland. To my surprise, they used fermented bean curb which took that dish to a whole new level. The eggplant sizzling clay pot was super flavorful. Just overall, superb. If you're looking for good food in Rotterdam, come here! You won't be disappointed!

Adorning one of the walls are solar powered neko cats that wave to you from the window. On the walls are interesting art pieces, one in particular with instructions on how best to enjoy ramen. Serving us most the night was the main chef himself who observed us smile with ease at every first bite we took of each dish served. The food was quite good. Small portioned with intentions to share with others; three to four dishes are plenty for a party of two. We were starving so we ordered quite a bit. Sashimi was okay, nothing worth raving about. However, they did have two types of soy sauce for sashimi. They had the traditional Kikkoman soy sauce which is often used for sushi and sashimi and then they had the Shibanuma soy, which was ever so slightly thicker and sweeter IMO. The Shibanuma is meant intentionally to be tasted with sushi and sashimi, not to be cooked with as the server mentioned. It was tasty, most defintely. Honorable mentions were the mongolian beef stew, which came piping hot and delicious. Picture does not do the dish justice. Meat was fall apart tender, full of spice and flavor. Probably best paired with a neutral side, like white rice but we got stir fried udon noodles instead. Udon noodles were delicious as well. Simple yet well made. Noodles had good chew to them and came out piping hot. Overall, nice restaurant to try out if you're in East Amsterdam by oosterpark and craving good variety asian food.

One standout dish that truly impressed me was the Kimchi Fried Rice with Shrimp & Sweet Corn. The balance of flavors was exceptional--the tangy, spicy kick of the kimchi paired beautifully with the sweetness of the corn, while the shrimp added a perfectly tender, savory touch. Every bite was vibrant and satisfying, showcasing a creative twist on a classic comfort dish. I cannot wait for an opportunity to revisit and try their duck. It smelled and looked decadent. The ambiance is equally remarkable, blending traditional elegance with a lively, welcoming vibe. Service was attentive and friendly, making the entire experience seamless and enjoyable. If you're in Amsterdam and looking for a memorable meal, Sea Palace should be at the top of your list--especially for that Kimchi Fried Rice!

So far, it's the most legit Dim Sum I've had in the Netherlands…read more It was packed on Monday night (good sign) with large tables having spinny things (good sign) and a mostly Asian crowd (good sign) - so we committed for dinner. We went too heavy on the Dim Sim, ordering six types of noodles, dumplings, and baopaos - but in reality one or two were enough for our small group. Take a look around - the main courses are running the show. As servers carrying whole suckling pigs, crackling peking ducks, and gorgeous overflowing plates of greens pass by your table, you'll regret your choice to stick with snacks. The salted cod + chicken fried rice should not be missed. Pictures on the menu are a huge advantage and let you spy on other tables to try and order better. It's not cheap - we somehow managed a €70 bill between the two of us, granted we had €17 of beer, but only one main course. They will do takeout containers, so be ready for that.

Sorry, het is niet mogelijk. But that's okay. The food comes quickly and is usually far better than the average Chinese food you're likely to find in Holland. Plus, the dim sum selection is great. I usually end up getting a noodle soup with either duck or pork, but that's only because it's late at night after concerts, and that's my favorite post-concert guilty pleasure. Everything else looks delicious, but for those who don't speak Dutch or Mandarin, be wary of asking for a description or translation in English...they might not bring you what you think you ordered. Thankfully there's a picture menu. The best part, as is usually the case in a place like this is the staff. The head waiter (maybe) is old, surly, and doesn't seem to like anyone. Or at least not me. There may have been an episode where some of my colleagues and I left origami dinosaurs and cranes along with the money, and ever since then he hasn't seemed to like any of us, even though we come in a couple times a month.
