Last week I wrote something about rijsttafel and why it’s a perfect meal for picky eaters. I couldn’t find any good pictures in my stock photo subscription so I decided to team up with my friend Robin because he’s a really great photographer with a passion for food photography. 🙂
We had some great fun presenting all the different dishes (and of course eating all the food afterwards)!

Even more delicious sounding. I want all of the food (except the green beans). So ridiculously lovely looking.
Thanks! I still think some of the dishes look… well, let’s just say predigested. Even though they taste awesome! But I’m glad you think it looks lovely! 😀
Well, maybe I should say delicious-looking. Because they all look like things I want to eat (also you have very impressively nice plates.)
That was a cooperative effort as well! The little blue bowls with the hand painted flowers are mine, the rest are Robin’s. He is a guy with some seriously good taste. 😀
The chips at the center of the first pic look exactly like the ones my grandma would make for me. It’s comfort food for me but very hard to find in the US!!!
Prawn crackers! The “raw” version is available online (for example http://www.amazon.com/Komodo-Shrimp-Crackers-Krupuk-17-5-Ounce/dp/B004OV28PG), which you can deep-fry yourself. Easier to transport than already prepared prawn crackers which crumble as soon as you look at them. 😀
Looks great. You have got me thinking about a special meal I need to make this week, thanks
Great to hear I’ve inspired you, thanks!
