The Hand-Ground Bumbu
The foundation of all great Indonesian food. Fresh galangal, ginger, turmeric, candlenut, kaffir lime leaf, and shallots—pounded in a stone mortar and patiently caramelized to release fragrant essential oils.
We don't believe in rigid, static menus. Every dining experience is tailored around seasonal availability, dietary needs, and regional Indonesian tradition.

An authentic Indonesian plate is a study in dynamic equilibrium. Deep rich curries and slow-braised meats are always balanced with bright pickles (acar), refreshing salads, and crisp textural garnishes.
Rather than forcing fixed sets, Novy works with you to design a progression that fits your palate, your guests, and the exact tone of your occasion.
Slow-Simmered Richness: Rich, dry-curried Beef Rendang cooked down over hours in spiced coconut milk, lemongrass, and toasted coconut until tender and deeply caramelized.
Charcoal & Spice: Skewered chicken, beef, or tempeh marinated in sweet soy, coriander, and garlic, seared and served with velvety hand-crushed peanut sauce.
Aromatic yellow rice (Nasi Kuning) steeped in turmeric and coconut milk, or rich banana-leaf parcels (Nasi Bakar) grilled over open heat.
From sweet, smoky Sambal Terasi to bright, raw, citrus-forward Sambal Matah made with fresh shallots, lemongrass, and bird's eye chilies.
Indonesian cuisine is naturally versatile. We provide full gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan, and vegetarian menus that remain entirely true to traditional recipes.
