Kitchenesia.com - There is always a fine line between “Western food” and “Indonesian food”.
From plating, method, to flavors, no aspect seems to unite them.
Especially in local hotel, Western and Indonesian food are always separated in two different restaurants.
However, at Kicir-Kicir, a buffet restaurant in Santika Premiere, it walks both sides of that line.
If you want from a restaurant an array of dish choices which encompass food and beverages from around the world, Kicir-Kicir is for you.
But if you want relaxing dinner and good view, this restaurant might say otherwise.
Kicir-Kicir unveiled restaurant extension that runs half of the facade of the ground floor, with full view of big glass walls that add a sense of modernism.
It is located near main entrance and lobby, so be prepared for a little bit of unwanted noises like car honks.
But I guess if you stay long enough in Jakarta, you'll learn to live with it and even long for it.
Although they sound subtly vague, those sounds are pretty much hindering me from enjoying the evocative food (yes, the food served here is that great).
My table overlooked the mini empty space that overlooked Hayam Wuruk street, affording myself with a glimpse of the locals’ activities in the chinatown area.
After all, having the main restaurant near lobby is not that disavantagous.
