Top choice in Medieval Centre & Red Light District
Beneath a striking curved glass-and-metal ceiling, superstar chef Ron Blaauw showcases cutting-edge Indonesian cuisine: saté kambing (grilled goat skewers with peanut sauce), udang peteh (shrimp with bitter beans in coconut sauce) and bebek mendoan (slow-cooked duck with tempeh and green-sambal mayo). Downstairs, the lush jungle-themed bar serves Indonesian-inspired cocktails and morphs into a club on Fridays and Saturday nights.
The entrance is hidden down a small alleyway just off Rokin.
