A few years ago there was, believe it or not, a Dutch bar/restaurant here (operated by a Dutch man and his Chinese girlfriend, neither of whom were in any way from a catering background. He was plumber and I don't think she had ever worked before).
They were a very friendly, fun loving couple but their food was truly awful. But then, I've never been impressed by Dutch cuisine (other than the Indonesian stuff).
The only vegetable they ever, ever served was boiled-to-death broccoli. The place stank of broccoli.
I go to the market and see table after table covered in all sorts of green vegetables, half of which I can't identify, but they only bought and served the broccoli.
They didn't last long. Either as restaurateurs or as a couple. He is back plumbing in Dutchland and she is in Shanghai working in some multi-national company.
