Soto Betawi H Husein
Additional Information
This is the most highly rated place in all of Jakarta for getting a bowl of Soto Betawi, an iconic culinary creation of Jakarta’s native Betawi people. Soto Betawi H. Husein serves a deeply flavorful version of the savory beef soup, rich with coconut milk and just the right blend of spices. Sink your teeth into some tasty tender offal like lungs (paru), or if you’re squeamish just stick to the “soto daging”, which features regular cuts of beef. This local delicacy is very reasonably priced at just a little over Rp 20,000 for a bowl (check out our guide to the Best Cheap Restaurants in Jakarta, all where you can get amazing dishes for less that Rp 50,000) but get here before noon or be prepared to wait for a table.
