Everything you want in one restaurant. I can write a lot but you just have to go and taste for yourself. Typical Dutch Chinese with all the favourites. Also in a nice 90" chinese design. Love it.

Appearance is deceiving - Edit
Don't be fooled by the facade and surrounding area: this is a real gem worth visiting.
Read moreDe Oude Plek holds a special place in my culinairy heart. It was one of the first restaurants where I could properly go out for diner without a hassle (or squat atmosphere) when I became vegan 20 years ago. I still regulary go here to either dine in or even for take away, even though it's an 80 km round trip by car.
I absolutely love the babi pangang and the chicken in spicy sauce. Since a while they also have proper vegan desserts (Ben & Jerry ice cream + fruit + vegan whipped cream), so now I'll either have to be starved or ask for a doggy bag...
Portions are very generous, prices are decent and the staff is super friendly! I also love to see the wide range of different customers, from old hippies to Surinamese families: it's hard not to fit in. :)
Pros: Beste babi pangang around, Big portions, big taste, small price, Super friendly staff
Cons: Not nextdoor to me!

Delicious Chinese food! - Edit
It's so good, try the babi pangang and you won't be disappointed. we had the babi pangang and tau si sue ngau (brown soy slices with black bean sauce) and both were very good. together with a few tsing tao beers a delicious meal. very friendly and helpful staff. their is even vegetarian squid on their menu. and vegan icecream. it all says vegetarian on the menu, but almost all food is vegan as well. ask to make sure.

Old school, new recipe - Edit
If you have been raised in Europe, you may have eaten at Chinese restaurants. They serve specially tailored food that’s based on Chinese cuisine but adapted for the European palette. This is combined with a unique atmosphere inside the restaurant with cheesy decoration and Chinese music blaring from the speakers.
Read moreAt “De Oude Plek” in Rotterdam you can relive this experience, but this time in vegetarian or vegan style. The decoration hasn’t changed for decades, nor has the service. A Chinese person will take your order, bellow something incomprehensible into a window to the kitchen and some minutes later your food will be served.
And just like in the old time it cheap and plentiful. We went for “menu A” which consists of fried rice (not nearly as oily as in other Chinese restaurants), vegetables (roughly chopped), sate (fake meat on a stick in peanut sauce) and a mystery container with slices of fake meat in sweet and sour sauce. The latter was our absolute favourite because it was the richest in taste and texture.
All food is so authentic and rich in taste, that any meat eater would be fooled by “De Oude Plek”. In fact, we simply had to trust the chef that it was really vegan because it tastes exactly like the real thing. And just like in the old days, the servings are so plentiful that we had left overs for the next day. The only difference: we didn’t feel bloated the next day because of any excess oil or fat.
In short: if you want food that’s rich in taste and high in nostalgic value, do visit “De Oude Plek”. With regards to covid, they may only be available for take out, but that only makes it more of a sentimental journey!

Read moreVan wegen C konden we niet blijven eten dus een ophaal menu gekozen (menuA). Helaas was deze niet 100% vegan maar werd meteen geregeld toe ik aan gaf vegan te eten.

Zeer warme aan rader!!
Dit menu voor 2 was ruim genoeg voor 3
Pros: Heerlijk en veel eten, Veel vegan opties, Zeer goed betaalbaar

So so good! I love "Dutch Chinese" food and miss it quite often since going vegan - the veggie options don't tend to be great. But this restaurant is the exception: fantastic meat substitutes, sauces, spices, tastes just like "the real thing". My non-veg friends & family agree which is always a good sign! Highly recommend.

Vega Chinees! - Edit
Zeer uitgebreide kaart compleet vega!
Read moreErg goede vleesvervangers.
Ook voor vleeseters de moeite waard.
Uitstraling is als een eenvoudige authentiek Chinees restaurant.
Wel behoorlijk ver van 't centrum van Rotterdam. Wij namen de watertaxi en hebben daarna gelopen, maar je parkeert er gratis voor de deur.
Bezoek is zeker de moeite waard.
Pros: Uitgebreide kaart. , Snelle correcte bediening. , Alles vega, dus niet perongeluk toch vlees.

100% vegan buffet - Edit
We are here right now enjoying a 100% vegan buffet of delicious Chinese food! The price is 19,50 per person. There are 2 choices of rice and 1 of noodles, 8 main dishes, several fried goodies, and a desert that is a fried ball of dough with banana inside and powdered sugar. The buffet happens every 3rd Saturday of the month and a reservation is required - or for the first time slot (5-7:15pm) or the second (7:30-10pm).

Old school good - Edit
Remember getting Chinese when you were young? You can still do that, with all the meat replaced by mock meat. Nice, old school Chinese restaurant, nice staff, good portions, reasonably priced, just how it's supposed to be. (Except maybe for the bottle of water I asked for. They gave us a 1.5L plastic Spa bottle and charged € 6,50 for it.. really?!)
Read morePros: Not hip and fancy, variety, staff
Cons: Ehm table water?, Located outside city centre
