I highly, highly suggest that you hop a train from AMS to Leiden for 9E. Walk to Sumatra, which is the best Indonesian food I've ever eaten.

The 4 of us ate appetizers, ordered satay (pork, chicken, and tofu), then ordered individual plates over 2 nights. Yes, that's right, 2 nights. It was so good on the first night that we returned for more the next night.

It only seats 20 at a time. Staff was VERY friendly and helpful. They even provided us with extra vegetables b/c we shut the place down each night.

This restaurant and trip is high on my to do list on the next visit. 35 min. ride to Leiden, go see a museum or complete the Leiden Loop, then go to Sumatra to eat and head to AMS around 9.
