House of Sampoerna Café
The House of Sampoerna cigarette factory cafe, occupying a gorgeous colonial structure complete with stained-glass windows and classy seating, is the perfect spot for a meal. The menu is divided into east and west sections, with rawon and Singapore laksa from the former and fish and chips from the latter standing out. There are great desserts, a full bar, espresso coffee (and even a nonsmoking section!).

Soto Ambengan Pak Sadi
If you're looking for chicken dishes, then look no further than Pak Sadi's. Be sure not to overlook the famed lemon grass and coriander Madurese chicken soup, which is sublime. The place is best known, not surpisingly, for soto, a typical Indonesian soup filled with chicken or meat and other bits and pieces. Service is fast.

Ahisma
This elegant upmarket vegetarian restaurant has well-presented salads, tofu meals, soups, and lots of rice and noodle dishes; no MSG is used. It’s owned and run by a welcoming Indo-Chinese family and there’s a small (veggie) deli here too for snacks and biscuits. Nonsmoking.
