Rotishop Gieta

Street foodLocals' pick

A takeaway in a De Baarsjes side street where Gieta herself has rolled every roti since 2008 from a chickpea-flour dough made from scratch; I amsterdam calls it the best roti in Amsterdam. If she cannot be in the kitchen, the shop does not open.

Good to know

  • Order the roti rol with curried chicken, the crowd-pleaser; there is also bami, nasi, pom and bakabana.
  • Takeaway only and no delivery: regulars phone ahead with their order and are given a pick-up time.
  • The walls are covered with press cuttings, including the 24Kitchen episode where Gieta explained her roti to chefs Job and Perry.
