#487 Nice food, friendly, Vegane Glorie, The Hague (NL)

Published by

restaurant review #487 – Vegan restaurant a bit outside of the touristy center. Was here for dinner in the Spring of 2024. The name ‘Vegane Glorie’ has a double meaning. Of course Vegan refers to the plantbased aspect. But ‘vegane glorie’ gives a hint to the Dutch saying of ‘vergane glorie’, meaning fading glory, something that was glorious in the past. Mmmm. A bit strange to choose that for your restaurant name when you consider it like that… šŸ˜‰ (maybe I’m missing something here, do let me know šŸ˜‰

#481 Indonesian ricetable at Javaans eetcafƩ, Groningen (NL)

Published by

restaurant review #481 – Whenever we are in the Netherlands, we always try to visit an Indonesian restaurant. šŸ˜ŠThere’s always vegan options available and the cuisine is delicious! In this restaurant, there’s a vegetarian ricetable and rice dish on the menu.I had specified we wanted a vegan ricetable when making the reservation online, a couple of days before. Service was rather reserved. When we were seated at our table, we noticed kroupouk on the table, and when ordering (and repeating we wanted a vegan rice table), the waiter said the kroupouk & sauce was not vegan and he would bring a replacement (we normally get emping or cassave crackers at Indonesian restos).The replacement however never came ā€¦ The ricetable came swiftly. No heaters on the table to keep the food warm (as is usually the case in Indonesian restaurants).Food was nice, but not extraordinary, and at 29,75ā‚¬ pp very steep!! Nicely decorated place, loved the cat statues. Not accessible: very steep ridge when entering, no accessible toilet. Paper towels at toilets to dry ones hands.Large …

#479 Great breakfast, very basic accomodation, Hotel Nicolay, Zeltingen GER

Published by

restaurant review #479 – Vegan Hotel at the Moselle in Germany! We were here for a couple of nights in the Fall of 2023. Breakfast buffet was lovely. Lots of things to choose from, cereals, fruits, jam, slices, pate, spread, …No tofu scramble or other hot dishes, or Danish pastry, which would make it complete! Breakfast is in 2 shifts, and you have to notify the day before if you want the early shift or the later one. A bit of a pity, one of the pleasant things of being on holiday is just waking up when you want to, no alarm clock. Apparently some rooms in the hotel have been recently renovated, but our room clearly wasn’t. Judging by the bathroom and furniture, I think it stems from the late 1970’s? Which also means poor insulation, and you can hear traffic from the road as if the window is open. The room was very basic, with some furniture wore down. Fridge dirty and not working (was mentioned and apologised for by the owner, but …
