The fragrant aroma of the torch ginger (kecombrang) really pairs well with the smoky aroma from the smoked skipjack (cakalang). The portion was big enough for two, and the waitress always offered empty plates for each guests.

The rice was Lightly seasoned as they wanted the kecombrang and cakalang be in the spotlight undisturbed, but still flavourful. The fried rice style was a lot like chinese style fried rice since they didnt add any sweet soysauce commonly found in Indonesian Fried rice.

The scrambled egg balancing the bold flavour and aroma from kecombrang and cakalang. To cleanse the pallate from greasy feeling between each bites, the provided pickled shallots and cucumber.

Something was lack on it but I dont know what. Overall a nice experience and might be back or try their other...
