	Review: We hopping in to grab a bite and realized we'd already had their food at the BioMarket down the street. They make these giant sushi rolls! Also, in the basement there is a nice little biomarket. Best time to go is during lunch.   Pros: * * Cons: * *

"Tiny vegan haven"   My Rating
27 feorag	Posted on: Saturday, October 25, 2008
	Review: I visited at lunchtime, when €12.50 allowed me to fill a large plate from a selection of salads and hot items - a main course (stir fried tofu and vegetables) and a number of sides, including brown rice. Other possibilities included small plates or bowls for salads only. Soups, drinks and desserts were extra. The space is tiny, with very little seating available. It was also not immediately obvious what the system was, or which end of the counter was which. The food itself is macrobiotic, and entirely vegan as far as I could tell. It was also solid and wholesome, although a little bland - though as we were there prior to a beer festival, this was an advantage. The meat-eating partner opined that he was satisfied, though he wouldn't rush there himself. The shop downstairs is full of interesting Japanese stuff, including kuruma-fu, which I've never seen outside Japan before.   Pros: brown rice * healthy food * vegan desserts Cons: Not much seating * confusing at first * bland food

"Deshima"   My Rating
9 RayJulian	Posted on: Thursday, October 02, 2008
	Review: Deshima is a self-service cafeteria which is in and part of the Kushi Institute of Amsterdam (which also includes a macrobiotic/organic food shop and macrobiotic courses). The food includes a section with about half-a-dozen appetizers, about 5 main dishes and a wonderful and sinnfull variety of freshly made desserts, cakes and cookies. The price is by weight. The food is made daily by macrobiotic cooks and covers a variety of ingridients and cooking styles and tastes wonderful. I could eat there every day!   Pros: Central Location * Great Food * Good variety Cons: A bit cramped when full * *
