Top choice in Surabaya
At Citrus Lee the food is art, and every dish is delicately painted onto a plate. The chef-owner trained in Paris, and the French influence seeps into many of his dishes. For most people menu highlights are the starters (think foie gras with shrimps), or the steaks – which are easily the best in the city.
The setting is smart and stylish but without being overly fussy.
