Indigenous cooking from the archipelago

Kaum is the Potato Head Family’s Indonesian restaurant at Jalan Dr. Kusuma Atmaja 77-79 in Menteng, Jakarta, and the flagship of its Indonesian dining concept. The name means clan or tribe.

The team travelled across the archipelago to study indigenous cooking methods, unusual ingredients and regional flavours, building relationships with tribal communities and small local producers. Recommended dishes include bistik Jawa, marinated beef ribeye with sweet soy gravy, and soto ayam with potato fritters and melinjo crackers, and the kenduri is a shared set of Indonesian dishes.
