Kampong Express Rotterdam

Malaysian good food!

Floor from Rotterdam

I was born in Rotterdam but raised in different cities in the Netherlands. In 2020, I moved back to Rotterdam. On weekdays, I am a teacher at the University of Applied Sciences. I find peace in long city walks with my dog and enjoy discovering new places while wandering around the city. I love to divide my free time between peaceful green spots and vibrant, crowded places. Additionally, I love to ...
"We love Sundays at Kino. After a movie, we enjoyed delicious Laksa and crispy chicken at Kampong, a cozy Malaysian spot near West Kruiskade. Perfect day!"

We love to spend a Sunday afternoon in Kino - like we did last Sunday. The relaxed atmosphere there and their great selection of movies (we went to Chet Baker's - Let's Get Lost) make it such a nice place.

With West Kruiskade around the corner, it is very tempting to skip home cooking after the movies and pick one of the many good eateries. That's how we ended up at Kampong. A small, cosy, Malaysian restaurant with very friendly service. At home, we sometimes make Laksa, but we haven't eaten it as well in a long time. And oh yes, even though we hardly eat any meat at home, we gladly make an exception for the crispy chicken!

Additionally, I love to cook, get fresh ingredients on the market, go out for drinks or coffee, or discover new flavours in restaurants. To me, Rotterdam is one of the true cities of the Netherlands. It's a vibr...
