Sinopsis
A new take on food writing, the Jakarta Good Food Guide (JGFG)—which is listed in the Indonesian collection of world class publications of the National Library of Australia (2001) and the Editorial Merit winner of the HOW Magazine USA’s 10th Graphic Design Award (2002-2003)—is Indonesia’s first good food guide aimed at mapping Jakarta’s culinary scene that is independent from the hospitality or restaurant industry in Jakarta.
It accepts advertising but NOT from restaurants. Restaurateurs cannot buy an editorial listing or a favorable rating in this guide.

It features 440 restaurants, casual eateries and street vendors (kaki limas) in inner Jakarta. The photographs are by the award-winning Paul Kadarisman and the design is by Cecil Mariani and JB Design.

"What impresses most in the JGFG (pardon the Orba-esque acronym) is its all-round quality: the clean, elegant design by Le Bo Ye; the thoughtful separation of categories; the concise, catchy writing; and most of all the informative, critical, knowledgeable reviews ... the prose is consistently playful, insightful, polished and never clichéd."

"This is a delicious read and a must-have for long-time residents of the city... Jakarta foodies... have seen nothing like it before."
