Okty was my guide and she was a lovely person, nice personalty and knowledgable.
We started in an old Chinatown Coffee shop and tasted Malaysian chicken and potato curry and chilli fried fish accompanied with Fried Bread. We moved into a wet market which was an eye opener and had delicious strong sweet iced coffee in a very old coffee wharehouse. More wandering through the wet market and then try Asinan Sayur a cousin to more famous Gado Gado.
We then spent some time in the Indonesian Muesum in the old square which was interesting to appreciate the history. Final stop was the fantasticlly preserved slice of Colonial History that is the Batavia Café for another version of coffee with coconut milk and a version of Cendol.
Overall interesting but light on tasting, no lunch as such and tour was finished by about 11,30 so only 3 hrs. Interesting but not value for money as I paid $80 as a single person.
