Men’s Folio curates the ultimate list of must-eats in Jakarta.
Food can be an intimidating and alien experience in the Indonesian capital of Jakarta, where visitors from abroad are warned to steer clear of street food. However, restaurants in the metropolitan city offer a wide variety of cuisines whether you’re in the mood to try out local nosh or prefer to stick to a continental menu. The Jakarta food scene is dynamic and new players have brought contemporary spins on classic dishes, making them successful in introducing new flavours to our palates. Here are some that stand out from the rest.
Plataran Menteng
The little sister of the successful Plataran Dharmawangsa is more centrally located in the heart of Jakarta, housed in a Javanese-colonial style venue. Consistent with the taste offered by the Plataran group, this restaurant presents a menu of Peranakan fare with a modern twist. If you are coming in for a light snack and tea, you might want to sit back on its fourth-floor rooftop to enjoy a view of Jakarta’s skyline.
