About

De Oude Plek serves classic Dutch Chinese-Indonesian dishes, including vegan versions of satay and babi pangang, alongside tofu, tempeh, and mock-meat plates. It’s a small, long-running, no-frills restaurant with quick service, generous portions, and good-value meals; most dishes can be made vegan, though the menu doesn’t clearly mark them and staff have served dairy milk with coffee after a vegan order.
