Pantjoran Tea House

Jakarta


One of the first buildings restored as part of the government program to revitalise the Old Town, this pie-shaped 1928 beauty makes a good first impression for Glodok visitors. Aside from the many types of tea on offer, there's a long list of Indonesian and Chinese meals (from nasi goreng and dumplings to carp with sweet-and-sour sauce).
