Tatsächlich haben wir wohl kein indonesisches Restaurant in Düsseldorf,vor langer Zeit mal gab es einen.Aber ein par exotische Restaurants haben wir schon noch.Laotisch(Luang Prabang),peruanisch? auf der Ulmenstraße und koreanisch hat sich die letzten Jahre auch durchgesetzt,gibts bestimmt 10 allein in Düsseldorf.
The most beautiful beaches I ever been to are beaches on Caribbean islands and beaches in South Florida like Fort Lauderdale and Miami and Palm Beach. Turquoise blue Waters White Sands and palm trees.
The best beach I've ever seen is Ruby Beach in Washington state, a wild and untamed place with driftwood that confused my husband, "What is all this wood doing here?" But for sentiment, Rockaway Beach in Oregon where we had our family reunion every year. It's a lightly used beach where every 100 meters someone makes a fire and cooks on it while enjoying the sunset. We would grill oysters on our shared balconies and go catch crab and stuff the fridge full of them. I miss my home so much. If anyone knows of a place in Germany where I can go out on a little boat and catch my dinner, I'd love to know.
Peanut sauce or saté sauce is the best invention since the wheel. We Dutch put that stuff on everything. Next time also try also Surinamese, heavily influenced by Indonesian and Indian food with an African and South American indigenous twist. Match made in heaven.
@@LythaWausW Surinamese isn’t as wide spread as Indonesian restaurants but they are present in all the bigger cities. You will find an abundance of them in Amsterdam south east aka the Bijlmer.
That makes me hungry! I totally miss all those kinds food!!! Peanut sauce over Sate and rice is where it’s AT!!🙌🙌🙌😍,Soto Ayam too! My grandma makes the BEST Soto Ayam!!
Indonesian food is really integraded in The Netherlands, especially in The Hague. I think almost every family in The Hague has ancestors who are Indonesian or Dutcheis who lived in Indonesia. The Hague is called "The widow of Indonesia"Because of the many Indonesian people,hitory an influence it has. Preparing Indonesian food at home is almost as comon as preparing Dutch food in The Hague.
As Indonesian We consider the Netherlands to be our second home. Because we share food culture and language,We have a long history so we are no stranger to Dutch culture
That's what makes the Netherlands special, mostly asian food only Chinese, Japanese, etc that which pretty common everywhere. But they have Indonesian cuisine in every corner that became its own icon and signature even part of tourism, almost like Indian food in England.
The reason why Indonesian food tastes more authentic than other foreign cuisines in europe (e.g. indian food in the UK) is bc it was first brought over by Dutch-Indonesians, aka Indos, who repatriated to Holland after Indonesia's independence. Their families have been in the Dutch East Indies (colonial Indonesia) for generations and cook with the original recipes. So there was never really a "Dutch-ification" of Indonesian food, because it had always been authentic.
I am Dutch and oh man, I'm 1.52 minutes into the video and my mouth is watering. Indonesian-Dutch food is so delicious. Why are you teasing me with this video? Ich bin Niederländer und oh Mann, ich bin schon 1,52 Minuten im Video und mir läuft das Wasser im Mund zusammen. Das indonesisch-niederländische Essen ist so lecker. Warum neckst du mich mit diesem Video?
Do you still live in the Netherland? You have so many great places close to you! Sometimes, we go over the border to get the awesome snacks from supermarkets in the Netherlands!
Oh yes, I live in Hoofddorp, next to Schiphol (Amsterdam Airport). I really like your videos. I also speak German quite well, so I sometimes respond in German. I just like it. Probably because of my German roots :-) Indonesian food is very popular in the Netherlands. Indeed, it has to do with colonial history. But The Hague is the place to eat Indonesian food. You will hardly find original Chinese here. There are only a few real Chinese restaurants in Amsterdam and Rotterdam. In March of year I am going to Berlin with my wife and daughter. I hope to eat some very real German Bratwurst there. Thuringian Bratwust is my favorite so far. And maybe I will also visit Jöllenbeck (near Bielefeld) the origin of my family :-)@@DeanaandPhil
Yeah, we did have some history but i never will forget the hospitality i've got whilst visiting a large german festival years ago. We hadn't even setup our tents when some of our neighbors brought us (draft!!) beer on the campsite and invited us over. Ringrockers are awesome people, as goes for most germans!
I live in Austria and I miss being able to get good Indonesian food, it is tradition we go out for Indonesian food if we are visiting my family in Amsterdam. You can recognize a good spekkoek by how thin the layers are. I have eaten spekkoek with 3 times the amount of layers in it and it is even more tasty. Also next time try some Surinamese food. BTW the pronunciation of ou it is the same as au which is the same as in German.
You guys missed the 'rijsttafel'. Since you live in Düsseldorf you should visit a traditional Indonesian restaurant and order a rice table. Lestari in Arnhem (1,5 hour drive) is a good one. Make sure to get some Saté Kambing (goat meat)... the best!
So much fun watching you enjoy Indonesian/ Dutch-Indonesian cuisine. You just munched down a piece of spekkoek that supposes to feed 6 people, LOL. Usually we cut it in thin slices. It is that rich. Hope you had room for more.
When other countries say: "Chinese food", it's usually "Indo-chinese food" in the Netherlands. Examples: Nasi, Bami, Sate, Loempia. It's a heavily influenced cross between Chinese and Indonesian food. The history with Suriname as well, where a lot of those cultures are mixed in too The Dutch call bean sprouts Tauge.
@@razaqrazaq2992 I am sorry for you, but many things in Indonesia is from China origin as is in all Asia so it is very possible that satay is from China. It is not specific Indonesian. But is as Indonesian as Patat Frites is Dutch. BTW.. many Japanese things come from China: like Bonzai en Zen Boedhism.
@@Roel_Scoot Chinese people don't know peanut sauce because peanut sauce is not familiar in Chinese food and culinary delights. Peanut sauce is a native Indonesian heritage. so many Indonesian foods use peanut sauce as a flavor enhancer such as 'Ketoprak, Gado Gado, Chicken Satay, Siomay, Batagor, Rujak Buah. "
@@quietusplus1221 i have friends Chinese chef and thailand chef, and they said peanut sauce is definitely from Indonesia, and that thailand chef said why Indonesian doesn't really abroad their food, because many of people known peanut sauce is Thai, and some Indonesian food is chinese, but originally from Indonesia, we steal from you. That's what he said😊
There seems to be some confusion. IN THE NETHERLANDS: Most restaurants/take-out marked as Chinese are actually a combination of Chinese and Indonesian food (Indo-chinese). You'll find both influences on the same menu (Indo: Nasi, Bami, Sate, Lumpia, Krupuk / Chinese: Egg foo young, Char siu, chop suey)
I love Indonesian food, and i love my peanutsauce. But i guess, as a dutchie, i take it for granted. I didnt realise you dont have that many Indonesian options in Germany.
As an Indonesian ive always jokingly said that the reason Indonesian cuisine isnt as popular as thai or india cuisine is because the dutch keep and enjoy it for themselves 😂😂
@@harukrentz435candaan yang seperti masuk akal. Belanda adalah seperti gudang rempah rempah masakan Indonesia di eropa. Begitu berharga seperti berlian. Kenapa harus dibagi dengan negara tetangga ?? 😄😄😄
Very nice video and good synergy between you two! There are number of other Indo-Dutch dishes in Indonesia that currently hard to find in the Netherlands such as Klappertaart (coconut tart) Ayam Kodok (Baked stuffed chicken) etc. "Peranakan" food in Indonesia has 3 different culture influence such as native Indonesian, Dutch (European/Portuguese) and Foreign Asians (Chinese, Indian, Arab etc). A sweet snack called "Dadar Gulung" for instance is spring roll shape with green color(from pandan leaf), a green pancake (panekkuk/Dutch) from Pandan leaf (Indonesian) filled with grated coconut with molten Palm sugar (Indonesian/javanese) folded like spring roll (the art of folding is Chinese). Taste very delish! Also that Klepon you ate is supposed to be not frozen and you have to eat them at once as it will burst in the mouth and that would taste even better! I do love this video and looking forward to your other culinary adventure.❤
I am born in Scheveningen, Den Haag. I love it. You must go to Indonesian restaurant Bogor, van Swietenstraat , not the nicest to watch,but the nicest to eat
Welcome back🌞 Ohhh yes. I've been influenced by chinese and indonesian food so much, that i really don't like to eat any dutchdishes. You never know what type of weather we'll get here. According to the weatherforcast, this weekend is gonna be 24-25 degrees celsius and after that is a week full of rain and lower temperatures. Better suite up if you guys are still here then. Happy eating🌞
So much fun recognizing my city! And getting some ideas for restaurants I haven't been yet! Scheveningen is always the most busy beach we have in The Hague (and mostly tourists..). Thank you for trying real Indonesian food and not the heavily influenced by other cuisines stuff. Please try Surinamese food as well, and when you do: don't forget the bara. It's something most of my friends not in the big cities haven't even heard about, but it is so GOOD
You missed rijsttafel, a way of serving various selection of food in a single table. The practice is still common in Indonesia as “hidang”, especially in Padang restaurant. But here in the Netherlands, almost every Indonesian restaurant has rijsttafel as a choice. It consists of sate, tempe, rendang, gulai, bami, lodeh, you named it. I suggest to visit Warung Padang Lapek, a famous Indonesian restaurant in The Hague. As an Indo-Dutch, it’s really nice to see how ingrained the Indonesian culture in the Netherlands.
I feel like the Indonesians and Moluccans are most integrated of all the "foreigners". I don't see you guys as different, just Dutch with a different flavour. You have your own culture but adapt very well, not the same for all "foreigners".
@@BierdopjeNLAs an Indonesian,It seems like this is part of our culture,Respect and adapt to where we live, I also feel that in general Southeast Asian people are like this.
My dear friends!! Im dutch and is nice to see you guys making these video's ! Not only the Dutch video's but all your video's i love! So positive and with a good fibe! Keep it up! TIP: visit the city of Nijmegen, my city. Its 2000 years old.
a "bumbu " is a paste-blend of specific spices that is used as basis for many dishes. the coconut drink (cendol) is pronounced tjendol (I first typed "a" instead of "o" and was rightfully corrected! just a stupid older age mistake I think!)
@@Warren_is_yellow ah dear.. hello, if it is meant for me. I regard myself as Indo ( mixed blood) but yes Belanda probably also covers it (in a legal sense) though I am not belanda totok... (totok = white Dutch person)
Indeed, Phil, the pandan spekkoek is the best spekkoek. And you should not eat it like you guys did, biting off large chunks. The best way to eat it is by cutting the spekkoek from top to bottom in very thin slices (so perpendicular to the layers). And then eat it slice by slice. A good spekkoek is so full of flavour, that you should eat it bit by bit to keep enjoying it longer ;-).
Bumbu means a special mix of spices and Jawa is the island of Java in Indonesia. Many Indonesian dishes are made by making a paste of spices for a specific dish in a cobek and oelekan (special mortar and pestle) and fry this in a wadjan (wok) before adding other ingrediënts. You really got all the Indonesian food I like so much, even cendol and klepon,
I’m Indonesian living in the Netherlands. Went to Kopi Kopi and I wasn’t happy with their food. Next time go to Warung Padang Lapek (also in the city centre of The Hague). An Indonesian authentic restaurant with their Padang (west Sumatera) food. DELISH !
It's unfortunate for us to hear that! But all good, since it all depends on your own particular taste ofcourse. And you're definitely right that there are enough other lovely, tasty Indonesian diners in the Hague!
@@kopikopithehague I do like Kopi Kopi (and Sayang, and Bumbu Jawa and Cendana and Palembang and Istana and so many more . As for Surinamese Jawa food I like Warung Mini and Djojo).,,,,,,
Lets not forget the Surinam influence.. The bread roll is an example.. Also the saotosoup.. it's from Indonesia went through Surinam and ended up in the Netherlands. You could also do a seperate video of the food in the Netherlands that came from Surinam, which has creole an Indonesian influences.. Try some Roti..
On your way back to Dusseldorf, you should defenitly visit the city of Maastricht! Realy good food, friendly people and an ancient city with fortifications. When you do visit, come on a Friday morning when there's a big market in the center of town with lot of Belgian and German visitors. Eat fries zuurvlees at Reitz, eat vlaai (pie) at the Bisschopsmolen, many local foods at Piek Potloed, visit the Vrijthof and Onze lieve Vrouwenplein. Park for free at Belvedere, and your in the city cnter after a 20 min. walk! Enjoy!
The Bami-Scheibe (Bamischijf) has been a staple of the German "Imbissbude" since I was a kid. You can find those in Düsseldorf as well. It might have come via The Netherlands a long time ago.
A Spekkoek is a very rich cake: 275 g wheat flower, 500 g butter, 500 g sugar and 10 eggs are mixed. Half is mixed with the spekkoek spices (colored layers) other half has no spices (light layers) and the thin layers are one by one baked in an medium warm oven on top of each other under supervision which is very labour intensive. Energie 421 kCal / 100 g !
Thank you so much for making these videos cuz our Herbsturlaub is still up in the air! Where shall we go next with our Wyndham membership? Also, I was feeling jealous of your food but then I went to the oven and pulled out the most amazing thing...I made Au Gratin Potatoes the first time and they are perfect. Kartoffel Phil would love them and they weren't hard to make, just they take forever to bake. But they are crispy brown on top and creamy cheesy below, omg I hate my low-carb diet right now.
I am from the Netherlands and I love all of your videos in and around here! Also, peanut butter in the Netherlands is not sweet haha. Maby you should try to eat peanut butter like we "Dutchies" do, on bread of course 🤗 keep up the good work guys!!🫶🏻
I'm from the US and peanut butter isn't supposed to be sweet, but Americans are addicted to sweets so now it is becoming sweet. I only bought peanut butter with no sugar in the US.
You silly people. You missed the most iconic of all Indonesian dishes. Rijsttafel. A nearly unending parade of small plates all filled with different spicy-sticky-sweet Indonesian cuisine. All accompanied by rice, of course. With this dish, one gets a small taste of almost the entire Indonesian food experience.
I would have loved to hear you pronounce Scheveningen (the place where the beach is) or 's-Gravenhage (alternate more old fashioned name for Den Haag) Prijs-kwaliteitsverhouding pronounciation was pretty good 👍
THe "C" in Indonesian (and thus their food as well) is pronounced as a "ch" as in the word "chuffed" for Cendol, toko cendana, pecel, etc. The Kue (you said Queue) is pronounced like "Query" without the "ry" and with a longer "e" sound.
As indonesian, living in indonesia i really would like to try some of those foods, it look interesting. It'll be interesting if someone can bring them to sell here
It is a sambal of some kind for sure...oelek ( ulek) in the stone cup thing you use to grind spices, Mortar and pestle that's it in English so sambal oelek is made in a mortar and pestel...
Phill checking himself out at 18:04 was my first LOL of the day! Also did Diana’s accent get way heavier all of sudden as she saw the Beech?! 😂 You two are adorable
Hello good morning, I really like watching this video from beginning to end. It turns out that many people like Indonesian food. KLEPON is indeed delicious. All the reviews are delicious, es cendol gado-gado etc.
Indonesian food is really good and very well integrated in the Netherlands. Satesauce is used with everything with Fries, Potatos, any Meat you name it.
You should try some Suriname food that's from Suriname Paramaribo my family are from their and that's also really good like saouto soup or like nasi goreng all different kind of choices like broodje kerrie kip (bread curry chicken) I grew up eating it.
Meanwhile, in Indonesia there are more Japanese and Korean culinary delights than in the Netherlands. In Indonesia Dutch food does not exist and is not popular, only Japanese and Korean food in Indonesia is very popular, from cities to villages there are Korean and Japanese restaurants.
Which came via Netherlands. Like other Indonesian things like sambel oelek.. Even in Germany and in Belgium the Chinese restaurants have influence from the Dutch-Indonesian kitchen, they have Babi pangang and Lumpia on the menu and other things. Pretty amazing.
Hi guys, like your videos a lot. Just let you know Fanta Exotic is in The Netherlands available in Albert Heijn Supermarkets; 4-pack=2,69€. Keep on the good work ;-)
baka bana, Mmmmm! that's the Surinamese version of pisang goreng (which is indonesian fried banana). Of course the history of Surinamese cuisine holds a variety of influences, such as Indonesian (Java)
It's so interesting, dutch call peanut sauce as sate sauce. In Indonesia we have many kind of peanut sauce for different. Peanut sauce in sate is different in gado-gado, in pecel, in lotek, in karedok, in siomay batagor, etc
Nice to hear that you like Indonesian food. But as Indonesian living here, i wish somebody open authentic Indonesian restaurants/ desserts shops. I have been here for more 20 years, never found one. 😞
First time cendol was invented by Javanese people early of 9 century. Anyways thanks for sharing Den Haag , i really missed it. Good food, nice people and beautiful city!
You have to heat the klepon first so that the palm sugar inside melts. So when it's ready you have to eat it in one bite and the palm sugar inside will explode in your mouth.
@00:58 When made well, rendang is a piece of art. In my opinion thé best Indonesian dish, just rice, rendang, kroepoekk and some fresh sambal trassi or sambal baloujak!👴👌🤗 @10:09 You might know these as prawn chips, but actually it are kroepoek chips. Originally kroepoek is made in "leaves", 15-20 cm wide and 40 cm or more long goodness.👴👌🤗 @12:20 Sambal Oelek is for use in cooking. The mistake many make is to use it on a ready made dish. There are many far more suitable kinds of sambal to use as a side dish. Just like this one.👴😉
