RESERVATIONS

Locavore is a small restaurant established in 2013 by chef-owners Eelke Plasmeijer and Ray Adriansyah.

We serve modern, creative cuisine through our tasting menu which is completely updated every 4 months with new ideas and themes. Locavore’s core concept is to celebrate local-only ingredients with social responsibility and sustainable practices. Exclusively working with local ingredients is a conscious decision; it's certainly more challenging, but it's also more rewarding and creative too.

Locavore has been Indonesia’s only restaurant to be ranked in Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants 5 years in a row, with their highest ranking being #21 in all of Asia.  We have also previously been awarded the coveted Most Sustainable Restaurant Award by Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants.

Locavore

Our vision is to present a rich, deeply passionate showcase of traditional Indonesian cuisine in a contemporary experience that reflects the developing and creative nature of Indonesian culture.

Nusantara means archipelago in bahasa Indonesia and with an estimated over 17,000 islands, 1,300 tribes, 300 local languages, 3,000 cuisines, its diversity is what makes the country.

Our Nusantara is an ethno-culinary portrait of the country. Yet we represent more than just the food itself – also the local ingredients, cooking techniques, serving style and rituals that all make up the heritage and culinary culture.

Our menus cover certain regions of Indonesia, where some of the strongest recipes and culinary inspirations originate. Many of our dishes are lesser-known, very local, and often not commonly found outside of those regions. Key to this is our ongoing research in discovering lost recipes, techniques, and dishes that have been forgotten or no longer practiced. Our team is bringing these back to life.

As the sister restaurant to Locavore, Nusantara benefits from the same supply chains of very high-quality ingredients, organic and heritage produce, support for local farmers, and of course, only Indonesian ingredients.

Nusantara

The unsung hero of Locavore and where the start of the magic always begins.

Our dedicated food laboratory and testing kitchen is the centre of Locavore’s research and development. Local ingredients of all kinds meet state-of-the-art techniques, ancient culinary ideas, and the creative minds of our Lab team.


With countless jars and fridges of experiential edible projects, the Lab is where ideas fail and fail again until… they get breakthroughs that are developed and finessed for use in the Locavore tasting menu. 

The team has also been building their own ingredients database to document the biodiversity of Indonesia, which they intend to openly share with the world to widen the use of these lesser-known ingredients.

ORDER NOW

When Locavore chefs Eelke and Ray want a break from the culinary high-craft of their tasting menu, they sit down and enjoy a damn-fine sandwich, burger, or coffee from their ‘cafe’ Locavore To Go.

The cafe is a casual off-shoot of their ideas and passions. Using many of their own produce from their adjacent butcher shop, Local Parts, the menu highlights span from the famous Burger à la Ray to classic sandwiches, charcuterie platters, and daily changing comfort food.

Ever wanted to pick an item to be cooked from the butcher shop but not have to cook it yourself? Just point at the butcher showcase chiller, take a seat, and we will cook it for you.

Coffee and drinks are also up to scratch with beans from local roastery Hungry Bird.

Locavore To Go

SHOP ONLINE

When chefs demand to go meet the farms, make relationships, and ensure the product is ethical and very high quality, you result in a great network of farmers and craft food suppliers. Whilst the team supports a balanced approach to eating meat, they do want the best from the meats that they use. It made total sense to help others have that opportunity too, so they opened their own Butcher Shop using only ethical, locally raised, and high-quality meats.

Local Parts is also a specialist in charcuterie and has perfected its own interpretation of classics using local meats – along with a large range of pickles, sauces, rubs, and other packaged goods for you to boost your own home cooking experiences.

Here you'll also find the ‘best of’ local partners such as Braud sourdough, 8 Degrees Cheese, and local salts.

Local Parts by Locavore

Local Parts

It started with an occasional dinner event to showcase and enjoy eating some of the best and lesser-known meats from our Local Parts butcher shop. We didn’t expect it to be as popular and cultish as it has become, so we evolved it into a weekly Sunday lunch affair.

Hosted in the Locavore restaurant each week the chefs produce a new menu. Classic roast lunches, international cuisine themes, and spins on the concept such as seafood and eventually a vegetarian showcase.

Expect a feast, served family-style for your group. It’s a very high-value offer (you really get a lot) and once tried people always come back again.
