LokiA popular halal Indonesian spot and the food lives up to its reputation. I enjoyed the chicken — well-fried, flavourful, and satisfying with the usual accompaniments. It’s easy to see why this place draws a steady crowd Took away one star for the service setup. There seems to be a lack of service staff, and I was asked to order and pay at the counter, even though most restaurants of this type usually take orders at the table. Not a dealbreaker, but it does affect the overall dining experience
Ruth🦆 @bebekgorengpakndut_sg offers indonesian penyat dishes and I finally got to try their Bebek Goreng Original (original crispy fried duck)! The bebek goreng was tender and relatively easy to debone and it goes so well with their original chili. But at $11.90, the amount of meat is really little compared to the amount of bones. 🥚 Thankfully I ordered the tahu telur to go alongside with it, and it was so well-layered and the dark sauce was so flavorful! Will be back to try their ayam penyat and hopefully get myself full that next round 🥹
Annisaa Hayya ArundatiWent to this restaurant for a quick early lunch with my neighbor. While I ordered the grilled duck, she chose the fried duck. I could notice the smoky flavor for the grilled duck. It was tasty, but it’s more on the sweet side as grilled duck normally served. I just think it would be best if they marinated the duck with some spices like coriander, candlenut, and turmeric. It’d be more flavorful instead of just relying on sweet soy sauce. As for the fried duck, my neighbor said it was okay, but a bit lack of saltiness coz the original fried duck from surabaya is supposed to be slightly salty. Lastly, we enjoyed the sambal. I personally love sambal kecap mixed with sambal belacan. It balanced the sweetness and spiciness from both sambals. Overall, everything was tasty. Price wise, it’s on the steep side. For a quick fix, when you miss Indonesian dish, I think this restaurant is still worth to visit.
