Indonesian native Mariah and her Taiwanese husband offer Indonesian cuisine here with a focus on dishes from the Sunda islands. Facing the Luchuan canal, the attractive corner eatery offers a cozy first floor with indoor/outdoor seating and spacious second floor with more tables. Popular Sundanese dishes (NT$200-300) include Nasi Liwet Ayam Bakar—a fried chicken leg served with tempeh fermented soybean cake, tofu, spicy sambal sauce, and aromatic rice made with lemongrass, bay leaves, dried fish and squid—and Nasi Liwet Pesmol Ikan Nila, featuring fried fish. Among 10 other selections from all over Indonesia are Sumatra's Nasi Padang (NT$250), featuring what Mariah calls the "tastiest beef in the world", and Nasi Kambing Mercon (NT$250), a very spicy lamb dish. Street food specialties (NT$130-200) include Batagor Bandung fried tofu dumplings served with peanut sauce, and Pentol Kriwil Sapi Indonesian meatballs. Various drinks (NT$50-100) include three latte varieties and refreshing Es Soda Gembira ("Happy Soda"), made with sweetened condensed milk, coco-pandan syrup, soda water and ice for a bubblegum-like flavor.
