Frommer's Review
Forget the corn-and-brown-rice image affected by some vegetarian restaurants, that worthy but dull message: "This stuff is good for you." Instead, garnish your healthful habits with tangy flavors and a dash of zest. This former hat store -- bolhoed is Dutch for bowler hat -- has Latin style, world music, ethnic exhibits, evening candlelight, and a fine canal view from each of the two plant-bedecked, cheerful rooms. Service is delivered with equal helpings of gusto and attention. Try pumpkin soup, ragoùt croissant (pastry filled with leeks, tofu, seaweed, and curry sauce), a variety of salads, and zarzuela (a cold Spanish soup). Even the entrees with brown rice and tofu taste good. If you want to go whole hog, so to speak, and eat vegan, most dishes can be prepared that way upon request. Ingredients and wine are organic, and in fine weather, you can dine at tiny tables on a small sliver of sidewalk right beside the canal.
