Here, you order the food directly from the counter. You can order drinks separately after you sit, a person will come to you and collect your order from your table. The place is usually packed, so they prepare the food in a large batch to serve it quicker. You will not have to wait too long until you get your order.

I ordered one portion of fried duck that cost me only Rp.18.000,- or around $1.35. It is considered cheap, because if you order the same menu from similar restaurant, it usually will cost you around Rp20.000,- to Rp.30.000,-. As usual, they serve it with one portion of rice topped with dark yellow broth, sambal (Indonesian Chilli Paste) and some fresh vegetables. The duck is very juicy and tender but crispy at the same time. You will not get any fishy smell from the duck. The flavor is well balanced, not too salty. The sambal is also not too spicy, this is why everyone can have it. The combination of rice, the yellow broth and sambal is simply fantastic. One thing that you will quickly notice here, the bone from the duck can be eaten and it is very crispy. You can easily crunch the bone in your mouth. They somehow cook it for a very long time with the spices before they fry it. It surely gives you different sensation once you devour it in your mouth. Overall, it was a really great experience for me.
