Part of the beauty and wonder of the just concluded London Olympics was the sneak peeks into the culture and customs of many of the Nations that sent athletes to compete for the Gold. One such example is the bold Dutch custom of the Rijsttafel. When the Dutch expanded their empire to Indonesia, they were swept up by the native cuisine it discovered. Excited by this new world of creative cooking, their appetites increased, and so did the number of dishes at the elaborate table. Thus began the birth of the Rijsttafel, which highlights the various Old World delicacies. The Rijsttafel was brought to The Netherlands, and now this fascinating culinary event in all it's glory, can be enjoyed by you -- right here in Chicago.
For the people who are familiar with the Rijsttafel, Chef Chris Reed and his staff expertly recreate the evening experience, that pleasured you in the past. For our newcomers, be ready to embark on a culinary journey, more than 400 years in the making - after which this experience of tasting the numerous and distinct dishes of the Rijsttafel, will safely guarantee that you'll be back for more. For this Rijstafel we have compiled some of our fan favorite dishes, so we know this will be a truly crowd pleasing evening. Our first three events were very successful and sold-out, so make your reservations early for this delectable culinary experience.
See you Sept 9th!

Sincecrely,
The Rice Table

I love rijstaffel, but we cannot make the event tonight. If you have another, please post it here and hopefully I'll see it and be available.

agreed !

The only place in Chicago where I've enjoyed rijstaffel is Angin Mamiri on Touhy (which may have closed or moved IIRC).

Agree with the above posts--plus a little more advance notice would be quite helpful as well.

Thanks.
