Foodgasm: Warung Leko


warung leko

When I landed in Jakarta, I knew I had to start my trip with some authentic Indonesian comfort food, and what better place than Warung Leko! My first stop, fresh off the plane, was their Grand Indonesia branch – and trust me, it set the tone for an amazing trip.


What I Ordered

I went all out with the classics:


Empel Penyet – Tender, spiced beef with that perfect penyet punch.

Ayam Penyet – Crispy fried chicken, smashed to perfection and brimming with flavor.

Tempe Bakar – This grilled tempeh was on another level, charred just right.

Tauhu Telur Petis – Tofu and egg with a unique, savory petis sauce that took it up a notch.

Each dish tasted so good that I’m practically drooling while typing this! Warung Leko’s flavors were so rich and bold that it’s hard to pick a favorite… yet if I had to choose, Tempe Bakar wins hands down. I’ve had tempeh before, but this was a revelation. I genuinely considered ordering more just because it was that good.

Ambiance & Service

Aside from the food, the service was excellent. The staff served with a warm smile, creating an inviting atmosphere even in the bustling Grand Indonesia mall. It’s safe to say Warung Leko knows how to make you feel at home.


Final Thoughts

If you’re ever in Jakarta and unsure where to eat, Warung Leko is a no-brainer. With flavors that hit just right and a cozy vibe, it’s the perfect go-to spot. I’ll definitely be back on my next visit to Jakarta – and probably ordering an extra plate of that Tempe Bakar!
