I was lucky enough to get a last minute solo dining reservation at Rijks, a one Michelin star restaurant here in Amsterdam. I noticed them cleaning the amuse bouche off with clear liquid, and ended up asking my waiter what they used to clean the glasses and plates before serving.

That’s amazing! Rijks is a gem. It's intriguing that they pay such meticulous attention to cleanliness, even for amuse bouche. Did your waiter share what that clear liquid was? Often, top-tier places have their unique touches. Hope you enjoyed the culinary experience as much as the ambiance!
