Kafe Betawi

Kafe Betawi is a restaurant serving Jakarta street food since 1992. It has more than 10 branches in big malls in Jakarta, Surabaya, Balikpapan and Bali.
For sure, the taste and price can't be really compared with the authentic street food. It is decent but when you eat street food in a restaurant, you can not feel the real ambience and also the interesting part such as watching the food street sellers prepare and cook the food directly in front of you on their carts.

Nasi Goreng Kampung - Rp. 30.000
Vegetarian Traditional Fried Rice with scrambled egg and also shrimp crackers on the top.

White rice - Rp. 6.000

Lontong Cap Gomeh - Rp. 38.000
Chicken cooked in coconut milk. Seasoned boiled egg and vegetable on top of round rice cake.
