From eating at an Italian grandma’s house, to enjoying a modern take on Betawi cuisine, we present four of the latest additions to the archipelago’s culinary scene.
Sa’Mesa di Nonna
Voted as one of the best new restaurants in Bali, Sa’Mesa di Nonna brings people together over good food. Masterminded by three friends, Damiano, Paco and Michael, the restaurant elevates the Italian family dining experience to a new level. Guests will have to book seats instead of tables because unlike any other place in Bali, Sa’Mesa di Nonna only features one massive table, where guests will be served around 25 surprises from the kitchen in a family-style concept. Sa’Mesa di Nonna is designed to offer discerning guests a fun and familiar experience, with a heightened level of quality and exclusivity, from an engaging host who is present at every dinner, to the carefully curated playlist that accompanies your dinner. A vast array of house-crafted cocktails and imported alcohol are also available to complete the experience.

Satoe Uduk
A trip to Jakarta won’t be complete without a taste of authentic Betawi cuisine.

Diners can enjoy both the picturesque verdant location, as well as signature dishes like Nasi Uduk and all its trimmings of Ayam Goreng, Sate Daging Sapi, Soto Betawi, Bumbu Kacang, and more. Located in the trending culinary destination of Pantai Indah Kapuk (PIK), Satoe Uduk makes an ideal destination any time of the day, any day of the week.

Wabi-Sabi
Quickly becoming a favourite dining spot for the city’s distinguished gourmands, Wabi-Sabi is the latest creation from the great minds of MDA Restaurants. Inspired by the beauty of imperfection, Wabi-Sabi offers a distinctive Japanese experience built around pristine seafood sourced from Toyosu market and various corners of the globe. Dishes and presentations are designed to highlight the freshness and quality of the ingredients used in the preparation.
The Japanese-inspired restaurant introduces your taste buds to modern flavours that can be found in creatively made dishes, such as Temari Zushi, Duck Duck Foie, Kakubin Karubi and more. The experience is then elevated through indulgence in the curated collection of fine wines, sake, Japanese beer and aged Japanese whiskey.
Located in the heart of Kuningan, the restaurant is divided into three areas; the bar for pre or post-dinner drinks, the open dining space that overlooks the stunning cityscape and the five private dining rooms for small gatherings.
