    One of the most-requested food in Mantra.

    It uses many variant of greens, such as morning glory, long beans, bean sprout, and basil.

    It is complemented with peanut sauce and rempeyek (peanut cracker).

    The vegetables taste fresh and the sambal dressing tastes sweet.

    The sambal fressing is served separately according to customers’ demand.

    Commonly eaten as the main course in Indonesia, Pecel Jawa is categorized as appetizer in Mantra.

    6. Perkedel Jagung (Manadonese Corn Fritters)

    Here, perkedel Jagung is accompanied by sweet soy sambal, making the familiar sweetness of corn ooze with the passive-aggresive taste of sweet soy sambal.

    Although its appearance is looking rather thick and hard to shallow, the texture is actually soft so it won’t hurt your inner mouth.

    Three perkedel jagungs are served in one dish.

    7. Teh Mocktail (Mocktail Tea)

    After finishing all main courses, now ice tea is the way to go!

    Mantra’s mocktail tea is complemented with lychee and served in two types, in wine glass for one portion, and in teapot for 3 portions.

    It has moderate sweetness that has freshness aftertaste.

    For your preference, you can request mocktail tea without sugar. (Report: Sera B)
