This Restaurant were a quite small restaurant located in a corner of Margonda street, Kober region for the exact place.

one things were noticeable about this restaurant were the small comfort ambiance inside the restaurant. Althought small, the space were quite comfortable inside.

The food were quite delicious. although not much, but here quality were over quantity. For most of student who like to find food with extra amount of quantity, you wouldn't find it here.

the lack of quantity were covered in great length with the goodness in quantity. The food were quite superb in its own kind and the price were quite reasonable for that kind of food

Favorite Dish: Takarajima Bento were one of my favorite there although Dragon Roll were also good enough to give it a try.

Why i vote for Takarajima Bento? because those Miso Shiru Soup. Those soup were a rarity in Jakarta's Japanese Cuisine small restaurant chain. And of course the taste were true to itself.

Dapur Babah Elite and the adjoining Tao Bar were designed to capture the rich history of early 20th-century Java.

The restaurant has five main areas each hosting a unique décor. Entering the front door diners are transformed back in time to the atmosphere of a traditional Chinese shop house where great jars of condiments are displayed along an antique counter. Moving further into the restaurant you pass under an archway of a traditional Chinese temple.

Favorite Dish: Djawa and Babah heritage cuisine is featured on the menu. This type of food is considered the everyday food of the peranakan culture and has been sourced from many areas around the island of Java. Nasik Tjampoer Babah, which is pandanus rice mixed with nine kinds of lavish Javanese Lauk Pauk, Nasik Goreng Bang Samin, which is inspired by a Javanese-style fried rice, or Bebek Goreng Boemboe Lengkoeas (fried duck marinated with special Galangal sauce) are items that are hard to resist. The Dutch influence is also represented on the menu with Biefstuk Compleet Oen (pan fried beef tenderloins served with classic fried potatoes, string beans, and carrots).

Drink: Plasir D Amour (lemon with palm sugar and lemongrass)

Gerobak is what the locals call a small food cart. These carts are all over Jakarta selling all sorts of cheap food ranging from noodles to fried tit bits and are able to just move their little carts all around. I ate most of my meals at these gerobak because the choices are galore and its really cheap. Most of the time, these gerobaks only provide a small stool for you to sit on without any tables. You will have to manage to hold your food on one hand while feeding yourself with another.
