History has it that when the dutch first turned up in Indonesia the local king
did not quite know what to serve the dutch. So they deceided to have a feast
where they would put on the table a bit of every thing. The dutch have loved
that concept to this day. In fact - if you are ever invited on a duch navy
vessel for a formal dinner - they'll rather serve you ricetable than something
dutch traditional and bland.
