Attracted to the place by a flier in the ice creamery down the road. Ordered the Supreme Rijsttafel and we were blown away by the taste and variety of the dishes on offer! Not a word was exchanged for ten minutes, with requests for dishes to be exchanged or moved made by grunts and nods of the head. Left reeling and thoroughly satiated.

It was my wife's 49th (364th day), 1 day shy of 50, so we decided to try a different meal. Kees recommended the rijsttafel. Awesome meal, couldn't stop eating it. Wonderful. Will call again.

This was our first meal here and it was so lovely we aim to meet the record of the people before us! Thanks for being so accommodating to our toddler!

We have been coming here for 25 years. Always look forward to visiting Napier so we can enjoy the wonderful food here. Tonight the meal was as delightful as ever, or even better than before.
