First Time Trying Gado Gado and Ketoprak – the BEST Indonesian Food in Jakarta



In this Indonesia Travel Vlog we FINALLY get to try the food you’ve all been telling us to try – GADO GADO!!! We were also lucky that the restaurant had ketoprak too. One of you even commented for us to go to this exact restaurant! 😱
If you’ve seen any of our other videos, you know that I don’t like meat much and I prefer vegetarian options. Because of that, so many people told us to try gado gado, but we were having the hardest time finding it since we were searching in Jakarta at the end of Ramadan! We looked for street food stalls, checked any small restaurants we saw open, and eventually had to search on google maps. We found the PERFECT place to try gado gado……but it was closed! We ended up finding another gado gado restaurant (Gado Gado Cemara) inside of the Jakarta Citywalk mall which we hoped would be open since it was a mall. We got lucky!! We had the most amazing gado gado there and also ketoprak – our two new favorite foods! Even since we filmed this, we have eaten gado gado SO MANY TIMES!!! It’s definitely the best Indonesian food in our opinion!

    Before Eat Gado – Gado and Ketoprak you have to Mix the peanuts & vegetale πŸ˜‰ πŸ‘

  4. Arvin Richman

    You should mix it all, include the crackers…Try Kupat Tahu Magelang, Ketupat Sayur (Betawi type and Padang type), Tahu Telur…there are many Indonesian veggie food…

  5. Lody Ticoalu

    Always mixed/stirring everything you taste on a plate so the whole recipes goes/taste at once/altogether = definitely tastier.. Enjoy Indonesia 😎

  6. Lody Ticoalu

    Oh, try satay Senayan before leaving later (guess they only have places around Jakarta). A bit pricier yet they are seriously worth the price for Indonesian selections and there's menu details in English

  7. Marcel Mogalana

    you need to mix all the sauce evenly first before you eat πŸ˜€ so you won't get bland/too strong taste at some part of your bite

  9. Praditya Nova

    Haha,, akhirnya malah dapat gado-gado dan ketoprak di dalam mall…. tapi ngga apa-apa, lebih adem tempatnya daripada di pinggir jalan πŸ˜€

  10. Lielie Jong

    You had to stir Mix Up gado-gado and ketoprakbefore eat them😊😊 though if you eat Bubur Ayam then you should choose either you would join the unmixed group or mixed group, there is bit war between these 2 groupπŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

  12. Andi Sofiyan

    for real experience try to eats like the local which is street food version. especially if the seller was the legend own family recipe … you will be amaze and understand why they keep well in their business …

  19. Samuel Hendrata

    If you in Solo City,Central Java just try Tahu Kupat Solo…its vegan too…yummy…

    And Try Cabuk Rambak there….delicious!!!

    tips from me, please, mixed all the food first before you eat, and make all ingredients covered by peanut sauce even. and enjoy it.

    and these tips may be useful for much Indonesian food as well. enjoy your adventure and don't forget to fulfill your appetite with delicates food here.

  24. Keanu Gremmer

    In Indonesia there’s no way peanut sauce made out of store bought peanut butter it’s big no no. It’s all fresh made from scratch πŸ™‚ enjoy

    To eat thise kind of dishes, younhave to mix it well first, especially the ketoprak (they pour soy sauce on the top to make it taste sweeter compare to gado2)
