We are proud to be named as one of Tatler’s Best 20 Restaurants in Indonesia once again.
This recognition reflects the dedication our team brings every day—refining their crafts in the kitchen and on the floor. We’d also like to thank the collaborators we’ve had the privilege to work with this past year, and to every guest who has shared a moment at our table.

In this episode of our staff meal series, we visit @esarestaurant , where @aditya_muskita has prepared Bubur Ayam, a dish close to his heart. Aditya’s mum used to run a bubur stall in a wet market, and he recalls days from his childhood helping his mum in the kitchen. His favourite way to eat the porridge is actually with a ladle of spicy tomyum broth.
Staff meal isn’t something that is only saved for special occasions at Esa; in fact, the team has a dedicated staff meal account, @notsoseriousstaffmeal ! Follow along for their staff meals (which are seriously delicious!)
