Hello, this is Fiona, trying hard to pick her favorite from over 50 booths of Indonesian delicacies. After going around the food court during the "Tribute to Batik Indonesia" event, here are what I ended up with:

Gudeg Jogja Yu'Jimah
Gudeg is a traditional cuisine from Jogjakarta area, although some other areas in Indonesia claim they have something similar to this. But here, we’re talking about the well-known dish from Jogjakarta. So, what is Gudeg? Basically, it’s young (unripe) jackfruit boiled for several hours in palm sugar and coconut milk. This one isn’t as sweet as other Gudeg I tasted. Knowing this dish is from Java region, one should be aware with the extra sweetness. I love the texture of the Opor Ayam. It smells good as well as tender. Krecek is on the right potion.
Sop Ikan Cempaka (Cempaka Fish Soup)
The clear soup is perfect when mixed with rice. Filled with herbs, chill, fish stomach, the soup isn’t overcooked. So it’s still beyond expectation. Anyway, you can choose the fish types which range from Ikan Patin (Iridescent shark), kakap (snapper), ,tuna and others.

Selat Solo
Although the word “selat” can also be translated to strait, but here, we’re talking about food. Thus Selat Solo is actually “Solo Salad”. But then again, Selat Solo doesn’t look like Salad. It consists of braised beef tenderloin served in watery sauce of garlic, vinegar, sweet soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce and spiced with nutmeg and black pepper. On the side, there are vegetables and fried potato wedges. Sometimes it’s also covered in chips or thin crackers. I expect larger beef on the dish, but overall it’s tasty. Instead of the usual potato, Selat Solo at Dapuraya is served with rice. The soup-like sauce is delicious that I finished the rice as well.

Serabi Solo
Many Indonesian dishes have similar names, Serabi (sometimes called srabi or surabi) is a pancake-like traditional snack. In a glance it looks like half of Doraemon’s dorayaki. Made of rice flour and coconut milk, this “cake” is usually sweet. Despite being personalized on where Serabi exist, this pancake is originated from Java. Serabi solo is half-cooked with thin and crispy crust. Today’s serabi, just like many other traditional snacks, is also available in fusion topping. But here, we’re sticking to the traditional chocolate. A great way to fill that little gap left by your main course.

To shop at Dapuraya is quite easy, all you have to do is top up your Dapuraya card (you can get it at the cashier) and start using it to buy food. It’s one-stop Indonesian food court, so if you don’t know where to go for lunch and can’t seem to compromise with your coworkers about where in Indonesia you should eat, maybe you should try Dapuraya. Can’t wait to have another heritage event here -- something featuring Tahu Petis (fried tofu filled wih shrimp paste) or Pempek (that famous fish cake from Palembang) maybe?
