Paon Bali

Takeout Restaurant · Oostelijk Havengebied

@eater

"Open for: Dinner Price range: $$ Following almost 150 years of Dutch colonization of Indonesia, the Netherlands is dotted with Indonesian takeaways, many serving recipes sweetened and de-spiced for cautious taste buds. Mixed in among some fairly uninspiring places, there are gems like Paon Bali, which serves up affordable (though inflexible) set meals. There’s only one plate on offer each day, consisting of a big scoop of rice surrounded by eight to 10 little portions of various meat and vegetable dishes and sambals. Bali is a historically Hindu island, so the cuisine includes more pork than elsewhere in Indonesia; the babi guling (traditional roast pork) here is excellent, as is the babi kecap (pork in sweet Indonesian soy sauce). Know before you go: The restaurant only takes walk-ins for dining in, and there is often a vegetarian option available (though check the week’s on the website)." - Katharine Khamhaengwong
