We've had our fair share of Dutch food in Amsterdam but we thought it was time to highlight and try out two incredibly popular cuisines in the city that have quite deep and dark ties to Dutch colonial history. We are of course trying Indonesian and Surinamese food in Amsterdam. The Dutch empire stretched across the globe and as a result of that, a sizeable diaspora from both countries have made their way into Amsterdam, opening restaurants of their home cuisines.

So in this video, we check out Albina in De Pijp for an epic Surinamese feast, and Desa to try the famous Indonesia rijsttafel (rice table)! We even have a few cheeky Dutch street food bites along the way!

Enjoy!
