tl;dr: One of the spiciest ribs I've ever had!

A standard location serving your delicious Indonesian fare in the Karet area. 



An easily accessible place that's suitable for office employees working around the area (eg. Tokopedia, Cocoworks, Lotte Mall).Very affordable prices between Rp25k - Rp 40k, unlike the prices stated on Zomato. Nothing too fancy, a simple place for a quick lunch or dinner. If you want, you can also order it through your preferred food delivery service.

If you're a spicy food fanatic and want something that pack a lot of heat, definitely ask for extra sambal on your meal. In Surabaya, they don't hold back on the spiciness of their food and it's clear when I took a bite of their beef ribs(iga penyet). Spiciness level : 10! There're many restaurants in Indonesia serving Fried Chiken with sambal(i.e. Ayam Geprek), but have you had spicy ribs? Thick, tender and succulent fried ribs that's generously smothered with cabe rawit sambal. Personally, I think this place matches the spiciness of the famous spicy Indomie joint that starts with A. The fried duck is surprisingly rich and satisfying too. I simply love the thickness of the fatty layer of the duck that simply melts when you take a bite of it. And, if you're just going to order chicken, then rest assured that this place serves a delicious grilled chicken that's "oh-so-moist and flavorful".
