Indonesias myriad cultures in one location.
Jakarta is a world-class eating destination. Youll find an amazing choice from oh-so-refined Javanese imperial cuisine to cooked-on-the-spot dishes from street vendors. Other cuisines (especially Asian) are well represented and prices are lower than youd expect. Many lounges and bars serve creative menus from top chefs.
Indonesians simply eat whenever they are hungry. The idea of it being a family affair or something to share with friends is less common here. However, as the middle class grows, locals are dining out more for pleasure than mere subsistence. This has fuelled a growing number of modestly priced but very good cafes and restaurants.
Typical breakfast and lunch-times in Jakarta are what youd find in most places but dinner can be later. Some restaurants stay open until 10pm and beyond, and some lounges and bars offer excellent menus until well after midnight.
Expect to pay around 50,000Rp for a main course in a budget restaurant. This rises to between 50,000Rp and 200,000Rp for the majority of casual restaurants, with top-end hotels and restaurants charging more than 200,000Rp for a main course.
Street stalls offer excellent, fresh local fare, with many vendors operating out of groups of stalls.
As many Jakartans eschew alcohol, theres a large selection of cafes offering coffee drinks. Standards are very high (this is Java!) and most places also serve meals.
Many stylish lounge bars also have ambitious kitchens serving creative dishes late into the night.
Restaurants are as varied in Jakarta as anywhere. From casual eateries with noodle and rice dishes to elaborate venues, there is a huge range of cuisines to choose from. The days when hotels were the only places to go for a fancy meal are long past.
Malls dot the city, especially in the south, and have food courts with international fast food outlets and fancier chains.
Classic Indonesian dishes done well, served at a single-seater bar.
Hip, retro restaurant off Fatahillah Sq serving Indonesian mains.
New Age versions of Indonesian classics served in a lush compound.
Spanish tapas in a rooftop eyrie.
High-end Japanese dishes in a minimalist environment.
Hawaiian-style rice bowls heaped with a choice of salmon, tuna, tofu or chicken.
Lavish furnishings, including exquisite antiques, are the setting for excellent Indonesian-Chinese dining.
