My Indonesian Food Trail

Look, if you only have time for 1 meal here, you should not even have to think. Piled with loads of duck meat (deboned), this is really good. Not cheap for local standards as you pay RP50,000 for a bowl

Must go if you are in Medan. Cant think of any item that didnt meet my expectations. Great Gurame Goreng, Udang Petai, Ayam Bakar and Sup Buntut

Another grill and fried shop honing Indonesian cuisine. The grilled chicken looked so good that I forgot a picture again :( and boy, it really tasted good. Juicy, grilled over fire and drenched with kicap manis. Im realising that the chilli here in Surabaya is seriously good stuff

If you had thought our imported version at Lucky Plaza was good, try Bu Kris. Local chicken (means normal sized, not the hormone induced overgrown ones we are used to) with some of the best chilli (cabe) I have had. Very spicy. They whip up a mean gurame (Grilled/Fried) and serve other good local dishes too. The tempeh was extremely fresh unlike the ones we get in SG where there is sometimes a slight soury taste.

Local betawi cuisine. Try the asingan (hope i spelt it right) and the sate. Good comfortable introduction to the betawi cuisine in this franchise cafe found all around Jakarta

Try the fish head and the ikan bakar. Nice little enclave with authentic local food

Yummy. The outdoor ambience makes it a mini Bali in North Jakarta. You can have the crispy fried version or the grilled versions. Depends on your preference
