A Hidden Gem:
Indonesian Restaurant “Batik Asli” Tucked away in the Eden Shoppers Paradise is the “Batik Asli” restaurant, a hidden gem that takes you across the oceans to experience the authentic flavors of Indonesia. With a loyal clientele for over 2 years, patrons have kept returning to dine at Batik Asli, and it seems as though the restaurant’s reputation for tasty Indonesian cuisine has steadily spread via word of mouth. The restaurant is owned and operated by Marco and Johan Dreijerink, who have been household names in Curaçao since 1969 after having lived in Indonesia for quite some time. With the support of Edu Lembekker, former chef and operator of “The Wajang Doll” restaurant in St. Maarten, the dynamic trio strive to deliver an extensive menu of traditional Indonesian gastronomy. Some of the highlights on the menu include: a Tiki rijsttafel (served at lunch), the Orang Belanda rijsttafel (served at dinner), as well as popular dishes like Babi Panggang, Nasi Rames or Ikan Bumbu Bali as well as various other Indian dishes. Take out service is available, including their rijsttafel specialties. The restaurant has a cozy atmosphere and diners can also choose to sit on the terrace in the beautifully landscaped garden with water feature. We are open for lunch and dinner from Tuesday to Sunday from 12:00 to 2:00pm and from 5.30pm to 8.30pm. The address is Caracasbaaiweg 280/5 nst. BK Tel. 843-0003. Reservations are recommended,
