My wife and I have been to several Bulelani popup events and they never disappoint! This time they were serving a three course menu: a butternut squash soup starter, their famous ribs or maple syrup smoked salmon for the main, and a cheesecake dessert. Everything was absolutely delicious! I had the ribs which are so good and unlike any I've had elsewhere, and my wife really enjoyed the salmon again. The BBQ beans and bone marrow mash sides were also extremely good. We've been a few times now and each time has been even better than the last.
Timo&Ossie do a great job making everyone feel welcome, taking time to chat to the guests and creating a great relaxed atmosphere. Can't wait to see them in a permanent location hopefully sometime soon!
Everything on this menu was absolutely delicious and surprising. The ribs are usually not my choice of food , but this time I am happy that I listened to the rumors and tried them. Still seeing dreams about them (starting to be worrying really). I am definitely coming back. And bringing friends. The Texas drink deserves special mentioning.
Must visit for any rib fan or foodie!
I've sampled some pretty amazing ribs in many different countries (including Texas) but these are probably the very best I've ever had.
I also must give big kudos to the Oyster Soup which we had for the entree that was definitely different but extremely delicious and also the White Chocolate Cheesecake for dessert which my girlfriend said was the best thing she's ever had. We had two servings...
I know I sound very enthusiastic but when you experience this quality of food in combination with fantastic service and obviously passionate staff then its easily something to get excited about.
Now I just hope these guys manage to open a permanent restaurant :-)
Spectacular food, amazing people and delicious cocktails. What else do you need in life?
The food is amazing. Definitely a must-go!!
Nom nom nommm... echt alles is heeeeeerlijk hier en de sfeer is zo gezellig!!!! Just ♡ it!!!
I just had smoked bbq ribs and sides at one of the best BBQ restaurants in Austin, Texas and I can honestly say that Ossie's smoke bbq ribs, beans and potato salad at Bulelani Smoked BBQ are far better not to mention Ossie's secret BBQ sauce!. These were very good but I am proud to say ours are better!
Great welcome, great food, great atmopshere! Thank you
Your ribs are the best I have ever eaten, not to mention your amazing cheesecake. I am a huge fan! X
I am no different than everybody else; WOW, the very very best ribs I ever tasted. If you go to one of the pop-up, take your time to enjoy the wonderful food. These ribs are excellent.
So for all of the cravings for ribs we have had since moving to Amsterdam, Ossie's ribs by a long stretch are the ones that satisfy. We left full and happy, after a truly lovely intimate evening with him and Timo. New addition to the menu of mac and cheese was the perfect carb to go with the perfect ribs, coleslaw and beans. Thank you guys so much!! Can't wait for the grand opening, when you guys get premises, which could only be improved by some ice cold classic whisky cocktails!
Thank you again!!
Amazing dry-rub smoked ribs, slow-cooked for hours on the BBQ... and the best baked beans I've ever taste - bar none!
I had an amazing dinner and night! Thank you so much. It was one of the best meals i had in a long time. The ribs and the sides were delicious!! Can't wait to come back and eat more of these ribs!!!! Keep up the good work and see you hopefully soon in your restaurant.
Best ribs I've ever had. By far. Same goes for the chilislaw.
Best BBQ! And a fun pop-up experience. Definitely worth trying

An overdue account of a Lovely, Yummy all around great evening while away on a romantic break.
I stumbled upon BULELANI during my online search for all great things food related in Amsterdam. I contacted Ossie and Timo and they made it happen!
Indeed the ribs where stellar as where the mac & cheese, coleslaw and milk tart.
Wine selection: let’s just say 2 bottles / 4 people.
We came in hungry and cold and left bodies full of flavors, souls full of friendliness and laughter.
