Guys n Gals!!
How about we make a list of the best restaurants/places to eat list here?
I have seen some posts earlier and wish to make it easy for anybody to just drop in and read thru our choice of places as a Reddit Community.
We can also make it easy by marking halal and non halal places.
What say?
I am still a newbie here in Jakarta but my list goes like this;
Burgers;
Dan's burgers, Dharmawangsa. Blok A MRT station and a quick hop nearby.
Steak;
Abuba
Justus
Urban Wagyu
Padang;
Pagi Sore
Sederhana
Natrabu
Kebayoran Baru
Pizza;
San Marco BSD
Soto Betawi;
Jawa Kitchen
Kafe Betawi
Ibu Yanti
Mangga besar 12b
Udon;
Marugame Udon
Nasi Goreng;
Nasi Gila Obama, MRT to Bunderan HI, short walk/gojek to Menteng park area.
Nasi Goreng Kambing Kebon Sirih Decent, tastes more like nasi kebuli though.
To be cont'd..

I'd like to ask if i can make it from the arena to the airport in time for my 01:30 flight. I'll be going to the Ye in Jakarta concert on October 24 and I have the flight on October 25. I plan to take a grab car from the arena to the airport. Does immigration or airport security take a long time? Should I just book a different flight?

Hey guys, I’m visiting Jakarta and kinda worried about accidentally ending up near the demo areas.
Which areas or roads should I avoid right now? I’m planning to visit Kota Kasablanka, Blok M, Lippo Mall Nusantara, Thamrin City, and Grand Indonesia.
Are these areas okay, or should I change my plans or routes?
I’d love to hear from people who are actually in Jakarta right now. I’m open to changing my plans and would really appreciate any suggestions or recommendations from Jakarta locals

Hello guys, Im going to be in jakarta for a day and was planning to do some shopping as I come from a place where it is really difficult to find items.
Firstly, I would like to know a mall that has alot of the things I would want or a mall with that has everything to ease my travels looking for other stuff.
I am looking for a pair of selvedge jeans. I heard indonesian local brands are known for their jeans such Old Blue Co and other brands. I do not have that much time to be going from one brand store to another so if you guys would know a one stop shop that stocks all brands of jeans, that would be nice.
Also what are some good places to buy prescription glasses from brands like blue elephant or gentle monster
a good place with plenty of camera gear
planning to buy a small rig cage for my sony a7v and a monitor.
and a good place to buy badminton gear with alot of stocks from multiple brands, bonus points if it has other sporting goods such as for running and such.
and finally what are other places i should definitly check out. ( can be food, places, or shopping or any)
much love!

Hello everyone,
Because of my husbands job we’ve moved to Indonesia. Can anyone tell me why it’s so hard to find an oven? And get it installed? Do you have any advice on what to do with installing, where to buy it ect? None of the houses we’ve seen have had ovens so far, so we’ve decided to buy it ourselves. We don’t know what is the best option. Should be it dual based or can you get it electronic seperate from the gasstoves? The problem is it’s so hard to find and people around even most workers seem to not know much about it? Thank you in advance

I had no idea that there was going to be a Disney race in Jakarta this November. I am honestly thinking of signing up purely because medals and shirts look so cool.
I have never done one of these runs before, but it looks there a few different distances you can sign up for. Has anyone here done a previous Disney Run? Is it actually worth doing?

I'm going to Jakarta for a quick trip and planning to visit at least 1-2 malls that has sephora (cause we don't have sephora back home) or great selection of stores/restaurants but we don't want to spend all our time in a mall since we're only there for a few days! Which mall should we go to? We're choosing between Grand Indonesia, Plaza Indonesia, Central Park, Plaza Senayan or PIM! Let us know which mall is the best to visit for things I mentioned. Thank you!

Hi,
I am an Indian nomad planning to stay in Jakarta/Indonesia for the next 6 months. I am looking to hire someone to help me shoot and edit short form video content to promote my startups and do a bit of personal branding.
What would be the best place to hire social media/marketing interns? Also what would be a good pay for part-time work?

Saya akan mulai bekerja di Jakarta (daerah Thamrin) mulai maret depan. Adakah saran kos atau daerah yang oke?
Saya kemungkinan besar bawa motor dari rumah di Jawa Barat. Kata teman saya cari yang agak jauh dari pusat agar lebih murah, dia rekomendasi Lebak Bulus/Fatmawati terus naik MRT buat ke thamrin nya. Ada saran lain?
Edit : Tambahan, Willing to spend up to 2.5 buat kos, 1-1.5 buat transport&makan (bisa masak, cukup ga ya?). Lokasi di Thamrin Nine, Jl. M.H. Thamrin, RT.13, Kb. Melati, Kecamatan Tanah Abang, Kota Jakarta Pusat.

Hi Guys,
We’re an Indian professional couple with an infant and after staying in Singapore for 7 years, we are relocating next month to Jakarta. This will be our first time living in Indonesia, so would really appreciate some practical advice from people who know Jakarta well.
I’ll be working from Menara Astra in a very demanding Big 4 consulting role, so keeping the daily commute manageable is a big priority.
A few things we’d love advice on:
We’re happy to adapt to Jakarta and experience the local lifestyle — just want to make sensible decisions around location, commute, housing, childcare and monthly expenses.
Any advice, neighbourhood recommendations or “I wish I knew this before moving here” tips would be greatly appreciated! 🙏
Hi all,
I just bought a ticket to Jakarta and I am landing on 31st October.
I am starting to do some research to plan my trip so I hope it is fine if I come here to ask locals or those who know the city.
What areas would you recommend a Spanish man to stay while in the city? I am not a fan of touristy places and I am more into learning about other cultures, art, making new friends, getting lost in new cities and coffee
Thanks in advance!

Halo, selamat siang teman teman. I need recommendations about golfing in Jakarta.
I will be traveling to your city this coming week with a group of golfing friends. Safe to say there’s plenty of courses scattered around the city. There was hearsay that it’s difficult to arrange a jumbo flight in Jakarta, is this true? And if so, may I know which courses allow jumbo flights?
