About this spot
Bayu Jordaan delivers the authentic, chaotic energy of Jakarta's street food scene right in Amsterdam's Centrum neighborhood. You must order the XL Spicy Beef Ball Soup with Vermicelli to experience the bold flavors that define this spot, while keeping an eye out for the crispy Spekkoek as a perfect sweet finish.
π‘ Tips before you go
- Order the Chicken Lemongras or Rendang Style options if you want rich, coconut-based flavors without overwhelming spice.
- Ask for extra rice when ordering the Fish or Beef choices, as portions are standard Indonesian sizes rather than Western generous servings.
- Try the Mild Pepesan Mackerel first; it is a delicate local specialty that pairs perfectly with sambal served on the side.
