Rumah Tjilik Riwut

Top choice in Kalimantan


This lovely garden restaurant-gallery in a traditional house specialises in local Dayak cuisine such as juhu umbut ikan baung (fish cooked in coconut milk and young rattan shoots), as well as having a broad menu of Indonesian fish and vegetable dishes. The garden is a pleasant place for coffee and a plate of roti or waffles after browsing the adjoining gallery.
