Little Sister-Indonesian Food Bar est un établissement chaleureux. Ce lieu apprécié est ouvert en soirée tous les jours de la semaine. Vous pouvez vous y rendre aisément par transport en commun. Le quartier voisin est prisé pour ses nombreux parcs, restaurants, marchands et cafés.
When Michael van den Winkel and Jennifer Gittins began hosting rijsttafel (a Dutch-Indonesian feast, which translates to "rice table") at their Quince Bistro, the events would sell out within hours. A craving was brewing for authentic Dutch-Indonesian food as well as a cocktail bar that this midtown neighbourhood was lacking – and so, without ado, in June 2014, Little Sister Food Bar was born.
Stepping inside feels miles away from midtown. The space can be characterized as a hip bar sans the attitude, paired with the frenetic street vibes of eating in Indonesia – all set against a backdrop of fast service and pumpin’ beats. Exposed ceilings rise above a long bar, while a mixologist serves up Indonesian-style cocktails with spices, lemongrass, lime leaf and caramelized palm sugar.
Indonesia was at one time a Dutch colony, and the food and flavours are an integral part to Dutch cuisine. Mike, Jennifer’s husband and business partner, learned Indonesian cooking while he was in the navy. The two met in England while working as chefs and went on to work together as private chefs on-board a yacht in Dubai, India and Singapore. “We’ve had restaurants in this neighbourhood for about 20 years, and we’ve always had Indonesian influences in our dishes. It was a natural progression to go into Indonesian food,” says Jennifer.
