Fodor's Expert Review Kantjil & de Tijger
$$
Centrum
Indonesian
Although you can order à la carte at this spacious and airy Indonesian restaurant, most diners opt for one of the four rijsttafels, each with at least 12 different dishes and flavors that range from sweet and coconutty to intensely spicy (the light local witbier is an excellent accompaniment); one version is vegetarian. There is a takeout counter around the corner (Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal 342), which serves inexpensive noodle and rice dishes.
