Every dish carries the soul of Indonesia — crafted from traditional recipes, local wisdom, and the creative touch of Plataran’s culinary team. These five signature dishes are exclusive to Plataran and represent the heart of the archipelago through a truly unforgettable dining experience.

Salad Putri Dewi
Guava, jicama, oven-dried tomato, peanut, sweet and spicy dressing

Inspired by the grace of a Javanese princess, this salad is a vibrant expression of natural elegance. Crisp jicama and fresh guava bring a crunchy sweetness, paired with the depth of oven-dried tomatoes and a bright, sweet-spicy dressing that awakens the palate.

Soup Daun Kelor
Moringa, coconut milk, base genep, tofu

Rooted in local wisdom, this warm and nourishing soup brings together moringa leaves, soft tofu, and coconut milk infused with base genep — Bali’s traditional spice paste. Moringa, often called the miracle leaf, is prized for its healing properties and symbolism in Indonesian culture. Served in a light broth, this soup is a gentle reminder that true wellness often begins with nature.

Ayam Dharmawangsa
Fried breaded chicken, spring onion, mango slaw, pomelo, sweet and sour spicy sauce

This modern take on a traditional favourite offers golden fried chicken, crisp on the outside and tender within, topped with spring onion and paired with a vibrant mango and pomelo slaw. The sweet and sour chili sauce brings a lively contrast, inspired by Indonesia’s bold yet balanced flavours. Named after Plataran Dharmawangsa, this dish captures the refined energy of Jakarta’s heritage district — playful, elegant, and full of character.

Iga Panglima
Grilled ribs, honey, curry leaf, celery, chickpea, curry sauce

Commanding in presence and rich in flavour, Iga Panglima features tender grilled beef ribs glazed with honey, resting in a smooth curry sauce layered with curry leaves, chickpeas, and celery. This is not just comfort food — it is a tribute to the strength and warmth of Indonesian hospitality. Bold, hearty, and deeply satisfying, this dish invites the whole table to gather and share.
