Excellent Indonesian food. I recommend the "rijsttafel" for 2 people. The staff here are super friendly, and a reservation is recommended as the place is quite small.

Some of the best Indian food in Amsterdam. The "orange menu" is delicious, and gives you a taste of everything. My parents ate here every day when it was just starting up, and the owners are awesome

Everything Else

This hair salon is excellent. Ask for Andrés to cut your hair - it will be the best haircut you've ever gotten! Not only is he excellent at his job, but he will massage your head with mint oil. Yummy!

Good dry cleaners and tailors. I bring all my dry cleaning here and have had a number of evening gowns altered. They always do a good job and are open very early during the week.
