Eid al-Fitr is one of the most anticipated times for Muslims around the world. In Indonesia, this moment is celebrated with joy and togetherness, with traditions of pilgrimage to family graves, forgiving each other, and gathering with family and closest friends. Usually, during Eid, people who celebrate will eat at home with their families, but if not, a few also prefer to eat out. Therefore, we have prepared a list for those of you who want to eat out during Eid!

East Quarter

Conveniently located in Grand Indonesia, it’s perfect for gatherings thanks to its close proximity to the MRT station. During the month of Ramadan, East Quarter serves Ramadan Specials Package Menu, including the smoky flavors of Ikan Bakar Jimbaran, Puyuh ‘Madura’, to the savory Beef ‘Rica Rica’. Not only that, they also provide Lamb Neck and Ribs Gule and Buko Pandan which are no less interesting. However, if you’re bored with the usual Eid dishes, you can try some of their signature menu such as Tuna Tacos for appetizers, Pan Roasted Tasmanian Salmon for mains, and Mochi Berry Watermelon Cheesecake for dessert.

Hotel Indonesia Kempinski

If you want to eat the “classics” that are usually available on Eid, Hotel Indonesia Kempinski has you covered. This year, Hotel Indonesia Kempinski offers dishes like Opor Ayam, Rendang Daging, Ketupat, and many more on April 10th and 11th 2024. Not only that, they also serve cakes that are only available in the month of Ramadan, such as Mubarak Cake and Fitr Cake. Mubarak Cake consists of genoise, sweet corn cremeux, cheese cake, and crunch, while Fitr Cake consists of bitter chocolate sponge, chocolate ganache, banana cremeux, caramelized banana, and crunch. To enjoy these dishes, you can go during lunch time or dinner time. For lunch, the price starts at Rp. 588.000++ per person, and Rp. 788.000++ per person, for dinner.

Mandarin Oriental Jakarta

This Ramadan, Mandarin Oriental Jakarta has prepared a variety of food for its all- you -can- eat buffet. Starting with the famous Kambing Guling and Chef Wildan’s Signature Fish Soup. For snacks, they prepare fritters that we often encounter or even consume every day, such as Cireng, Pisang Cokelat, Bakwan, and Tahu Kipas. Not only that, they also prepare foods from various other countries, such as Sashimi, Sushi, and there is also a BBQ station, where there’s a choice of various meats, chicken, and fish that customers can choose to have grilled by the chef. In addition to a wide selection of proteins, they also provide a wide selection of sauces that we can take to complete that meal. And to end it with a sweet note, for dessert, they serve Mandarin Oriental Jakarta’s signature cakes, such as Cheese Cake and Black Forest.

Park Hyatt Jakarta

Park Hyatt Jakarta offers a delectable buffet with the theme of Nusantara delights but with a Mediterranean twist. You can indulge in various Mediterranean favorites such as Kabobs, Hummus, Pita Bread with fillings, and many more. One thing for sure, the selection of Chef de Cuisine Ardy Indrawan and his team is unquestionable. They also provide Sweet Ramadan Delight with a selection of cakes that are certainly very interesting and make a genuinely remarkable encounter at this moment.

Raffles Jakarta

Raffles Jakarta is certainly no less interesting than the others. This Ramadan, Raffles Jakarta is serving Sate Komoh Pasuruan Style, which is marinated beef satay served with jackfruit stew. They also have Lobster Lumpia with pineapple and mango ginger drip. Then there’s Pandan Wrapped Chicken in Woku Sauce which comes with sambal dabu-dabu. After that, there’s Cashew Nut Crusted Black Cod Fillet and King Prawn, and there’s also many people’s comfort food, Ayam Pecal, which is turmeric and coconut marinated free range baby chicken served with spiced rice rempeyek crackers.

Seroeni

Seroeni is a contemporary Malay-Chinese heritage restaurant. You can definitely imagine how mouthwatering and flavorful the food is going to be. Starting from Tahu Rojak, Salted Egg Crispy Fish Skin, Malay ABC Beef Ribs Soup, Kung-Pao Chicken, Orange Marmalade Beef, and closed with Almond Tofu Pudding, Sago Gula Melaka, or a wide selection of snow ice. Seroeni is a great place for a family meal. On the day of Eid al-Fitr this year, which is April 10, 2024, Seroeni opens at 12.00, perfect for you and your family to have lunch together.

The Duck King

Famous for its peking duck, The Duck King has become a go-to place for families to dine together with family or loved ones. Aside from the peking duck, the other menus served there also attract a lot of attention, such as Kung-Pao Chicken, Braised Homemade Bean Curd Crab Meat, Deep-fried Prawns with Mayonnaise Sauce, and last but not least, my grandmother’s personal favorite, Fried Kwetiau with Sliced Beef! Just like Seroeni, on the day of Eid al-Fitr this year, which is April 10, 2024, The Duck King opens at 12.00pm.

The St. Regis Jakarta

The St. Regis has prepared a unique and different menu. In addition to the usual dishes that we enjoy on Eid, such as Beef Rendang, Ketupat with Spring Chicken Opor, Sate Maranggi, and Laksa Bogor, they also provide Alaskan King Crab and Oysters to complete the meal. These meals are available at Bel Etage, a fine quality buffet in The St. Regis Jakarta. On the day of Eid al-Fitr this year, you can visit The St. Regis Jakarta during brunch hours to enjoy the dishes that have been served.
