Balinese food does not have to be enjoyed in Bali. It can be found in this capital city of Jakarta too. Just located not far from Bebek Kaleyo, Smarapura Resto has a homey ambience with a local touch of Bali. There are 4 wooden gazeboes adorned with typical Balinese fabric in its surrounding. The waiter and waitress here also wear a traditional Balinese suit. A famous dish from Bali you must try is Nasi Ayam Betutu. Another good option is Nasi Campur Bali. It is a lovely restaurant with a lovely and romantic atmosphere, and the food is fantastic. I had the duck and my girlfriend the nasi campur, both were delicious. I would also recommend their best selling drink, kintamani. And all for such a low price make it a restaurant I would definitely recommend. #urbanexplorer #tripfoodie #tripfoodie #urbanexplorer

Sajian Sambara Cipete Jakarta Selatan

The combination of modern concepts and legacy produces something quite unique and interesting. Like the Sambara restaurant that serves Sundanese cuisine. This restaurant is visited by many customers who want to taste typical Sundanese food. Aside from the dishes that truly have authentic Sundanese flavors, the prices offered to eat there are also affordable. Besides that, the facilities are also complete, such as restrooms and others. There are several mainstay menus here namely Baked Rice, Anglo rice, Tutug Oncom Rice, Liweut Rice and Song-Song Rice. Song-Song rice is a menu of rice mixed with oncom with banana leaf packages and put into bamboo. #urbanexplorer #tripfoodie #urbanexplorer#tripfoodie

Bumbu Desa

What better way to have a quick break while shopping at the well-known Rumah Mode than at a local Indonesian restaurant set-up right inside the shopping premise! This restaurant serves authentic Indonesian and Sudanese food, so brace yourself for a multitude of dishes to choose from – from the classic gurame goreng (fried carp), ayam bakar (grilled chicken) and sop bontot (ox tail soup) among many others. Take note that it is not a buffet set-up. Choose the dish of your liking and a server will prepare them accordingly and serve it to your table! Bumbu Desa exactly offers me food like my family usually have at home. #urbanexplorer#tripfoodie

Bebek Bengil

Adopted from The Balinese language which means Dirty Duck, Bebek Bengil has been here in Jakarta since 2009. The first branch is originally located in Ubud, Bali. Their concept is actually to bring the Balinese ambience to this city. The signature dish here is the Crispy Duck served with stir-fried of string bean and bean sprouts. Don’t worry, the chilli sauce has been included in the package. The original fried duck is, in my humble opinion, second to none. Coupled with the special sambal chilli and onions mix, it is simply irresistable!To top it all up, the price is very reasonable The balinese decoration is another plus point and it makes the place feel some calm and comfortable. Thus, the ambience is another strong plus point! #urbanexplorer #tripfoodie #tripfoodie#urbanexplorer

Bunga Rampai

For some more Indonesian local cuisine, you should give this A-class restaurant which a Dutch architecture a visit. This restaurant is very popular among the expats around Jakarta. You will find the entire restaurant filled with luxurious furniture and wallpaper. For the food, you can try Nasi Buketan, a big portion of green rice accompanied with meat skewers, sweet fried potato, diced omelette, and chilli sauce. Prices were on the higher side but for the setting, food presentation and ambience of the place I would say it was worth every cent. If there is a slight complaint from me it would be that the menu has no pictures so you must take your time reading the descriptions of each item before you order. Would def come back to try more of their exciting food. #urbanexplorer #tripfoodie #tripfoodie#urbanexplorer

Dapur Solo

One of the most renowned food from Solo is Nasi Liwet or in Javanese, we call it Sego Liwet. Nasi Liwet is a kind of rice cooked with coconut milk and Indonesian herbs added with shredded chicken, cooked squash, boiled egg, and of course, sambal (chilli sauce). When you want REAL Indonesian cuisine as enjoyed by Indonesian people at home, this is the place. No unnecessary garnish or decoration, just great authentic taste. Menu varies from poultry to beef to exotic satays. National celebrities who dropped by have their photos adorn the interior. Must visit when you travel down the road. #urbanexplorer #tripfoodie #tripfoodie#urbanexplorer

Bebek Kaleyo

If you ask the people in Jakarta about the best place to eat duck in Jakarta, they will definitely answer “Bebek Kaleyo!”. This place is especially for those who love spicy meals. The duck which can be a kind of tough meat can be found tenderly cooked here, with the taste of spices perfectly absorbed deep within. The favourite dish here is Bebek Goreng Cabe Hijau (Fried Duck with Green Chili). But if you still cannot live without red chillis, don’t worry as they are always ready on each table. The resto has spacious room for guests to dine there. Beside bebek, you can order for chicken too here. The food is tasty and the price is average. #urbanexplorer #tripfoodie #tripfoodie#urbanexplorer

Cafe Omah Sendok

Taken out from the Javanese language, Omah Sendok literally means “House of Spoon”. This restaurant used to be a house which has been turned into a restaurant. That is why you will find the authentic home ornaments such as its wooden chairs and tables. There is also a view of the pool while you enjoy your meal. Nice ambiance, good food, good service but not easy to find since it located not on busy main road but in some houses block. well, waze app will guide you though. It was a semi colonial with javanese touch house style that renovated to be a restaurant which served indonesian food which is works well. I ordered almost all item on the menu since I held small gathering for people from my office. #urbanexplorer #tripfoodie #tripfoodie#urbanexplorer

Cafe Batavia

This restaurant is such a unique place and I think one of the most memorable restaurants I've ever been to in my life. This restaurant is located in the Kota Tua (Old Town) of Jakarta. Do not be surprised if see more foreigners than Indonesian people here. This restaurant preserved its colonial design and structure since 1837. Enjoy your seating in the classy wooden chairs with your selected local food such as Soto Betawi, Nasi Campur, or their signature Batavia Fried Rice. When you walk through the doors, it's like walking back in time. The building has a rich history that is part of the fabric of Jakarta. This place is a little bit pricey, but absolutely worth it if you are in the area. Not to be missed when visiting Jakarta. #urbanexplorer #tripfoodie #tripfoodie#urbanexplorer
