How we read reviews →Melbourne's most authentic Indonesian warteg, serving banana-leaf nasi bungkus near the consulate.
A no-frills, hawker-style warteg with long queues and a loud, packed room during weekday lunch rushes; minimal English spoken gives it a genuinely local feel.
Banana-leaf wrapped nasi bungkus with a pick-your-own combination of meats and vegetables, disposable gloves offered for eating by hand, and free laneway parking for the first hour.
Reviewers consistently call it the most authentic Indonesian warteg in Melbourne, run largely for and by the local Indonesian community, with little English spoken on-site.
A $19-21 combo of rice with two meats and two vegetables draws praise for value, though several reviewers felt recent portions have shrunk relative to the price.
