Guidebook for Los Angeles
Food Scene
Delicious Indonesian food, very tasty and harty. Try the chicken saté and the "Nasi Bungkus (#8)" (~$13), which is a sampling "dish" filled with rice, chicken curry, pulled beef, an egg that tastes like fried tofu on the outside, and some other goodies all wrapped in a banana leaf.
Parking hard to find, they do Valet, but also only 20 min walk from our house. They don't serve alcohol, but has a bar next door to it.
No reservation needed, with a little supermarket on the side to get some real authentic Indonesian ingredients.
