🔥 Grilled Chicken IDR 20.000

Overcooked to the point I could taste regret more than chicken. The sweet sambal was nice, but the meat went bitter, so I benched it. Sad.

🍚 Fried Rice & 🥦 Veggie Tofu IDR 20.000 each (friends’ picks)

Review from the table: so-so. Edible, not memorable.

🐔 Taiwanese Crispy Chicken - the hero

Crisp, juicy, exactly like the ones I inhaled in Surabaya. I’d add curry seasoning next time for maximum drama.

Pros & Cons (speed run)

Pros

• 🐔 Crispy chicken that actually slaps

• 💸 Budget-friendly stalls (most plates ~Rp 20k)

• 👥 Good for group grazing / low-stakes dinners

• 📍 Easy Renon location

Cons

• 🍗 My grilled chicken was overcooked (ask for not too dry)

• 🍽️ Other dishes were mid—depends on stall & timing

• 🔊 Food-court acoustics (not a whisper date spot)

Tips if you go

• Lead with the Taiwanese crispy chicken; ask for extra seasoning (try curry).

• If ordering grilled items, request “jangan terlalu kering” (not too dry).

• For variety, split one safe dish + one new stall and share the data.

Stay crunchy, not bitter,
