Description:
Not many Amsterdam eateries have made a name for themselves in the movies, but this one played a notable role in the 2002 red-hot romance flick De Oesters van Nam Kee (The Oysters of Nam Kee). In the heart of Amsterdam's small but growing Chinatown, Nam Kee has a long interior with few obvious graces and little in the way of decor. Still, people come for authentic, excellent, modestly priced food from a 140-item menu. Those steamed oysters with black bean sauce and the duck with plum sauce are to die for. The Peking duck -- always an indicator of quality in a Chinese restaurant -- is satisfyingly crisp-skinned. Service is fast, so you won't have long to wait for a table.
