"An affordable place to have great Indonesian meals; these are full fledged meal for lunch or dinner, and with plenty of options including western. The waitress is very friendly; introducing us the full menu while highlighting best sellers and providing recommendations based on our preferences. Food does take some time to arrive, but reasonable. Spiciness level is just right, enough to satisfy my level and not overly spicy for my kids. Portion is quite generous and well presented. Plenty of seating available for different size of party. Parking is limited, as it is at Kampung Baru housing. Oh… the entrance door is sliding type, so do be careful as you enter. Would return to try the rest of the menu. Enjoy your meal there!"
