Blauw has been on my list of international dining destinations since my first visit to the Netherlands in 2018. I was finally able to make a reservation at Blauw during our trip to Amsterdam this past March, and our meal was absolutely worth waiting seven years for.
We enjoyed the Menu Biru, composed of Indonesian street food and rijstaffel (mixed rice table) containing 16 (!!!) different dishes. As someone who prefers to dine Family Style, the rijstaffel just might be my favorite meal sharing format.
Dishes included were beef rendang, chicken rica rica, eggplant green chili, ayur buncis, cod mentega, shrimp balado, egg kuning, sayur lodeh, gado gado, goat satay, chicken satay, sambal goreng potato, serundeng, cucumber acar, steamed rice, and fried rice.
To wrap up our meal, we were presented with a gorgeously plated dessert and a handful of takeaway containers to bring our delicious leftovers back to our hotel, which were promptly enjoyed for dinner the following evening.
