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.

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.

Great restaurant! It's been a while since I was this…read moreimpressed with the complexity of a dish because every element on the plate complimented the others perfectly. We enjoyed the group menu very much and the option to try a bit verity of dishes. (Really recommend the orange duck and soft shell crab!!). The atmosphere was relaxing and the service very pleasant. The only downside were the desserts. Perhaps the rest of the food set the bar too high, but while the main food was a flavor explosion with every bite the desserts were quite unimpressive. The ice cream was blend and simple and the only thing that might have delivered was the candied spiced pineapple that was really lovely. All in all, still a great experience and highly recommended, just skip the dessert.

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.

I visited here in 2018 when I was backpacking in the Netherlands because I stayed at the King Kong…read morehostel nearby. This place absolutely saved my palate after weeks of deep-fried seafood (with mayo), fries (with mayo/peanut sauce and onion), and many hash joints. I still remember I got the nasi goreng and chicken sate, and they were absolutely godsends, especially after a long time of having the flavour I was not the biggest fan of (mayo). I remember I brought a kiwi with me for this meal, and the flavour also blew her mind as she hadn't had anything like this in her own adventure in the Netherlands. Great and relaxing vibe too I'll for sure visit the Netherland again and come to warung mini.

I was staying at the awesome City Hub down the block and decided to check this restaurant out. I went by fellow Yelper Michelle S's recommendation of the Gado Gado and Chicken with noodles. One would think, prices would be high like that of Amsterdam. The portions were big and good value. A lot of locals as well as tourists were here in this Witte de With establishment. I was pretty full after the meal. It was a pretty nice stroll down Witte de Withstraat back to City Hub.

So I did go two times, once for both options. A la carte was okay, sort of. Spicy? Not really. Food was decent but nothing spectacular. The hotpot was also okay. It's nice they give you your own small pan to use and you are given the option how spicy you want your soup. For the more adventurous eaters try the more spicier one. In the end hotpot is (food-wise) all about the soup, meat and vegetables. The meat was pretty mediocre so all in all don't go to RP if you want quality produce. Also, the service isn't very good. The waiters look very busy even though the place isn't packed. When they do come to your table it tends to be a bit chaotic or they don't really seem to listen to any requests.

I decided to look at the menu at small Asia and the pictures of the rendang as well as the sight of freshly baked pandan cake lured me inside. A quiet place with decor of trees on the ceiling and service with a smile. Service was fast and friendly and the music pianoesk and just right.. I settled on the rendang whilst munching on the free cassava krupuc and after a short wait ( I decided not to have some of the delicious sounding starters , dimsum, miso soup, spring rolls, prawns ,fried chicken all around the 3 euro mark) my rendang arrived. A huge plate with beef rendang that you could cut with a spoon and full of flavour, sided with vegetables in a very light curry , a fried boiled egg and fluffy white rice....wholesome with love and soooo good!. I decided on the pineapple cookies and Jasmin tea to finish. For someone who can't handle sugar to well these cookies were perfect.. That and 3 pastry cookies for 2 euros?? ( all their sweets were around that price mark) Who could resist right ?? So thumbs up for this quiet small piece of Asia in Rotterdam :)
