It’s time to head over to Samarra, another stylish restaurant designed by the Tugu Hotels Group. The fragrant arome of Indonesian cooking in Middle Eastern spices alone will be enough to stimulate your appetite. The menu is simple, but each dish is a creation of intense flavors based on unique Middle Eastern spicing and ingredients. A special treat is the unique Sate Pasar Kuno (The Old Souk’s Satay) in a wooden boat with its twelve varieties of sate that includes meat and fresh seafood to tempt your palate. The chef delights guests with Samara’s creations, such as Sate Lilit Ikan Gianyar (Bali), Sate Ayam Ponorogo (tender chicken sate from a famous village vendor from Ponorogo), Sate kambing Kapuran Camaram (Semarang), Sate Tempe Panggang Kecap (grilled soybean cake sate marinated in coconut milk), Sate Kambing Muda Giling and Sate Ikan Kelapa Blambangan. End your excellent meal with Summer Night in Soenda Kelapa (a white wine Sangria mixed with pineapples, mangos, bananas, lime, and Havana rum) or perhaps Amor on the Dessert Oasis (a red wine Sangria with peaches, strawberries, red guavas, cantaloupe, and cinnamon) to treat your taste buds. The lunch special at Sammara is of great value, and the table d’hote will satisfy even the hungriest customer, while the Middle Eastern décor creates an ambience of pure delight.

Sajian Sambara Restaurant
Address
Jl. Cipete Raya No. 14 Jakarta Selatan
Telephone: (021) 769-7913
Operating Hours: 10.00 – 22.00
Reservations: Recommended
The warm modern Sundanese feel of the sajian Sunda Sambara restaurant and the friendly service create a cheery atmosphere that is enhanced by the ethnic tunes played at the restaurant. Here there are no rules as to which dish you should start on first: just get yourself a bowl of rice and an assortment of dishes and tuck in! you could start with a bowl of Sayur Asam (a light yet flavorsome vegetable soup with beef broth and tamarind). Highly recommended are the well-marinated and succulent Ayam Madu Sumbara (sweet honey chicken) and the sweet and subtly smoky squid Balakutak cumi-bakar, grilled to tender perfection. A must try is the Gurame Goreng, a farm raised fish with such a unique flavor that no seasoning or marinade is needed when preparing it. Try the Sate Maranggi, a tender meat satay which presents authentic Sundanese flavors. The main menu covers a good selection from meats to seafood and vegetables, while a separate dessert menu is also available upon request. No alcoholic drinks are served at this halal restaurant. Even as you tuck into their signature dishes, be sure to save some space for their breathtaking desserts. Top picks are the Jajanan Pasar, such as Surabi, Colenak, or Katimus. On the drink list, try the Bajigur, Sekoteng, or Bandrek. The service staffs are casual, yet very attentive and efficient. Sajian Sambara has additional locations in Bandung at Jl. Trunojoyo 64, Jl. RE Martadinata 17-21 and at Foodlife on the 3rd floor.
