Japanese Food

Japanese food is possibly the most popular food in Indonesia after Indonesian food itself; it has gained popularity thanks to the lengthy period of time it has been introduced in the country too. Since after the independence day, Japanese ‘expats’ that chose to stay behind shared the food of their country and soon restaurants would open up in Jakarta, attracting visitors such as President Soekarno himself. Today, you can find Japanese restaurants in literally any budget, from the localized versions, fusions, to the very authentic.
