    Nasi goreng udang
    by belgianchocolate
    It looks a bit like a large open garage...with a large cooking corner , it is a sort of warung (streetfood) but in a concrete house this time..

    What I liked about it? You can see the cooking happen.
    It's a bit macdonals like , they got a few dozens of people working here. If you are in Indonesia , you will learn fast. There is one to take the order , one to bring the drinks , one to bring the order and one to clean up the table and one....
    If you ask something to the wrong person , they often laugh , nod yes , and nothing happens. (you'll learn)

    A nice menu , write down the order , quit some choise...and they got desserts as well.

    A pitty is that the airco makes so much noise.

    Nasi goreng Udang : simple nice good.

    Ayam goreng tepung : chicken baked in a little flour jacket.

    A little warning Served with the food , a little bowl with vegetables , watch out for the green little peppers. They are not created for western tongues.

    A nice simple place.

    Ikan mas , udang goreng
    by belgianchocolate
    Taman Ismail Merzuki is a popular spot for young people. It has a planetarium , some exhibition space and some restaurants....a movie theater.
    The chaotic traffic is nearby , yet this is a nice oasis in the city....

    This is how this restaurant works. You'll get a card and something to write your order down.

    This time we had
    Ikan Mas Bakar rica : grilled fish
    Udang goreng : baked prawns.

    I'm sorry to say so , we made the wrong choise here. We choose to sit inside a restaurant...the food wasn't too good , the service either.

    Last time we ate much better here.
    Go for a warung.
    (fish and seafood is , compared to other dishes , much more expesive in Indonesia)

    Oasis Restaurant and Cafe is known as the expert in Indonesia fine dining called "Rijsttafel'. Taken from Dutch lingo, means the buffet. But it's not the way it should be: guests comes to the table and choose the meals they want to have. Here, it's real entertaining. 12 maids comes using Javanese dress and served us. And we can take the delicacies and put them in our dish ~warmed Chinese porcelain dish from the collection of Raden Saleh and family.

    These are the menu of main course [we take it directly from the maids who bring the meals]:
    ~ Steamed white rice
    ~ Boiled deep-fried eggs in savoury coconut milk
    ~ Snapper fillet in heavy coconut milk
    ~ Chicken in heavy coconut milk
    ~ Deep fried boiled beef
    ~ Beef and chicken satay
    ~ Stir-fried baby corn with parrot and paprika
    ~ Beancurd and veggie
    ~ Fried banana
    ~ Roasted grated coconut and peanuts
    ~ Shrimp crackers
    ~ Mixed pickles
    ~ 4 kind of chilli pastes
    ~ Peanut sauce

    Situated in an old Dutch villa owned by a famous Indonesian painter; Raden Saleh, hmmmm, the appetizers are sooo delicious. First, Indonesian fruits salad called "rujak". Dices of tropical fruits with 2 dressings separated: brown sugar syrup and peanuts then the other is something green like avocado but sour. Second turn is light seafood soup, then continue with crabmeat omelette and mustard sauce.

    Love all of the appetizers.

    Rather authentic Javanese food with lots of interesting items on the menu. Some items in the menu are influenced by chinese or dutch food. Atmosphere is very friendly and the antique decor is interesting.

    This happens to be one of our current president's (Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, no relation) favourite resturants. The photo was taken in May 2005 when we happened to be having dinner at the same time.

    Osengan koyor (fried beef fat), Selat Lidah (ox-tongue soup), Rujak Cingur (Hot ox-nose salad), Tahu hotplate siram kepiting (Hot Plate Tofu with Crab sauce), Kangkung Hot plate (Hot Plate Kangkung/Morningglory). There are less exotic fare as well: fried rice, noodles, hot-plate tofu etc. all quite excellent.

  • "Teck Teck" is the sound a kind of food hawker makes while roaming around local residential areas selling boiled/fried noodles and rice. "Wangi" means frangrant.

    "Teck Teck Wangi" is a simple restaurant, one of the kinds where locals eat. It doesn't look like something special but as a local I say their nasi goreng (fried rice) is tasty and less greasy - different from most others. They serve Indonesian fried rice many ways, even there is one with cheese as the topping (which tastes good). Beside nasi goreng they also serve noodles, fish, chicken, etc.

  • Waiter at a Padang Restaurant - Jakarta
    Waiter at a Padang Restaurant
    by cometojakarta
    Masakan Padang , A very well known Restaurant sign board which you can see in every corner of the streets of Jakarta. .The display of these dishes on the front window is in a very unique way at on a top of each other without any scare that they are going to slip down despite the load of food items each white glass Dish plate carries on.

    What differentiates Padang food than any other Cuisines is their style of serving to their customers ..As soon as you take a seat , waiters will come to you holding at least 10 to 12 dishes in their hand ( Its amazing to see how they balance all of
    them) .Remember you never need to order anything except drinks even that also a hot tea will be placed on your table along with your food.

    Dishes will be placed on your table in a way like a card building game so that they adjust the width of the table , and here you are free in a full democratic way to chose anything you wish just as if you are looking at any ballot paper of a election and you have to pick somebody for your well being.

    Remember only the food from the dishes which you have taken will be charged and the ones untouched will be never be charged in your bill , So remember Don’t try to Taste all even a single small bite as it will be charged full , always A food touched is the food charged , it goes something like that ...

    So here you are stuffed full with one of the most tastiest cuisines of Indonesia and when you make your way back after paying your bills .Remember a last tip , Don’t try to look back at your plates , And what these Waiters do with it . Because it is recycled and remaining untouched food will be served again in the rack.

    Story & Photo- Aliakbar.

    18 to 20 dishes will be on your table which will consists normally of chicken gizzards tossed in chili ,lamb curry , prawns , fried sometimes baked potatoes, grilled kampong (local farm) chicken ,the sayur tempeh goreng, the chili eggs, the huge plate of sambal (sauce)…Rendang ( Beef Spicy dish).the list goes on and they will refill any dish if asked and along an extra plate of rice to each members on your table .

    But it’s a complete guarantee that someone who looks at the food displayed and the food served in the acrobatic way will forget all his paranoid’s and rationality because his tongue will water like crazy as soon his eyes make contact with these tasty food offered without ordering anything.

    Internal parts of goat soup.
    by wibisono
    Warning: This food is contained with high cholesterol materials.

    Sop Kaki Kambing is basically soup (with coconut water) and some parts of goat. Although its name is goat’s foot, but its main materials are not only come foot. It also comes from the head (i.e.: ears, eyes, skinhead) and internal organ of a goat (i.e.: liver, kidney, intestines).

    The standard menu is soup with goat’s meat, ears, eyes, skinhead, liver, kidney and intestines. For special, you can ask for brain and testicle.

    For a special menu, they'll charge you arround Rp.30,000 (arround US$3.5).

    It’s one of my all-time favorites food.

    Sop Kaki Kambing (with extra brain).
