Buka Mata Senayan Debuts First Collaboration with Pisang Ijo Cendana, Presenting

In celebration of Indonesia’s Independence Day, Buka Mata Senayan — the coffee shop located in the lobby of ARTOTEL Gelora Senayan, Jakarta — joins the “Waktu Indonesia Semarak” campaign with a sweet surprise: a special collaboration with Pisang Ijo Cendana, under the theme Semarak Santap Manis.
Pisang Ijo Cendana is a well-known small and medium enterprise (SME) specializing in traditional Makassar treats, particularly the beloved Pisang Ijo (steamed banana wrapped in green pandan-flavored dough). Using time-honored recipes and high-quality ingredients, Pisang Ijo Cendana has become one of Jakarta’s most iconic Pisang Ijo brands.

Through this collaboration, Buka Mata Senayan and Pisang Ijo Cendana present five exclusive banana-inspired desserts to delight sweet-tooth lovers:
Pisang Ijo Original – IDR 55,000 Net / serving
Pisang Ijo Special – IDR 78,000 Net / serving
Kueke Ijo – IDR 55,000 Net / serving
Bolu Pisang Kopyor – IDR 55,000 Net / serving
Kanrejawa – IDR 39,000 Net / serving
Some of these special treats can also be enjoyed with Kopi Tubruk Liong and Kopi Tjinta Tanah Air, legendary brews famously favored by Indonesia’s first president, Soekarno, with package prices starting from IDR 68,000 Net.
“This first collaboration for Buka Mata is a special moment to bring authentic culinary creations to our guests once again. Together with Pisang Ijo Cendana, a dedicated SME preserving Makassar’s traditional delicacies, we aim to serve dishes that are not only unique and delicious but also celebrate Indonesia’s rich culinary heritage,” said Yana Nuraga, General Manager of ARTOTEL Gelora Senayan – Jakarta.

“We are delighted to partner with Buka Mata Senayan for this collaboration. It’s a concept that preserves the essence of Indonesian flavors while remaining competitive alongside international dishes. We hope this partnership adds a fresh touch and inspiration for banana-based dessert lovers, especially the younger generation,” said Sabrina Santoso, Owner of Pisang Ijo Cendana.
All special menus will be available 24 hours a day at Buka Mata Senayan until 30 September 2025.
