Sunday Night Rijsttafel at The Wharf

(3/10/2007)

"Rijsttafel", Dutch for "Rice Table," is a delicious legacy of Indonesia's Dutch colonial past created to bring the best recipes collected from across the archipelago to the dinner table. Comprised of course after course of well-spiced and succulent dishes followed by a final act of exotic fruits and sweets a "Rijsttafel" is best met with a hearty appetite and at least a momentary inability to count calories.
