Tashi Deleg has been around for some time in the Utrechtsestraat. Before it had only a Tibetan menu, but I think business was not going that well, because they closed and when they reopened, they also had a Indonesian menu and added the name of the Indonesian restaurant down the street to their name.

In Holland we have no Starbucks, which I often complain about, so we go to The Coffee Company instead.

“Do you know how Cafe de Jaren got it’s name?”
