Where To Eat

The cheapest places to eat in Indonesia are at the mobile stalls ( kaki lima, or "five legs"), which ply their wares around the streets and bus stations during the day, and congregate at night markets after dark. You simply place your order and they cook it up on the spot. Warung are the bottom line in Indonesian restaurants, usually just a few tables, and offering much the same food as kaki lima for as little as 50c a dish. Rumah makan are bigger, offer a wider range of dishes and comfort, and may even have a menu. Anything labelled as a restaurant will probably be catering to foreigners, with fully fledged service and possibly international food; many close by 8 or 9pm. Tourist restaurants will charge from three times as much for the same dish you'd get in a warung. Where restaurants are reviewed in the guide, inexpensive means you will get a satisfying main dish for less than US$2, moderate means it'll be US$2.50-5, and expensive is US$5.50 and over. In addition, many of the moderate and all of the expensive establishments will add up to 21 percent service tax to the bill.
