    Harum Manis is an Indonesian restaurant that is located in Pavilion Sudirman Apartment. The restaurant is spacious with classic Indonesian interior. The private room is available as well. This restaurant will give us a homey vibes, especially when it’s not too crowded ?

    They have variant of Indonesian foods selection, such as fried foods, appetizer, satay, seafood, chicken, duck, beef, lamb, noodle, vegetables, even selection of rice, along with the desserts and beverages. All of them is interesting, and since it’s many selections, it will make us think for a while to decide what to eat ?

    Crackers and sambal are served as free flow and without charge.

    If you want to get a complete all in one foods, I recommend you to try Sarwo Becik Sanget (a plate of some variant of fried foods) and Aneka Sate Nusantara (variant of satay).

    The service is friendly, the foods taste good, that’s why I recommend this place to dine in with family ❤️

    Here are my recommendations : – Sambal Terasi (FREE) – Sosis Saking Solo – The mango sauce from Sarwo Becik Sanget – Green Rice – Soto Ayam Arek Suroboyo – Sate Ayam Mbok Ayu – Bir Pletok Dingin for the beverage

    The place is good. They have several private rooms for you who wants to reserve a place for certain event. The Sate is delicious, but other food is not that good. Probably because I like spicy food, while the food here is not spicy at all. But for those who wants to entertain guest, this is the right place.

    Great Indonesian food with a very nice atmosphere. We had gado-gado, grilled chicken, mixed satay, and nasi kuning and we loved it. Friendly service and good portion for sharing. We will come back for more. Highly recommended.
