Betawi cuisine

Betawi dishes; soto betawi and asinan betawi in a Betawi restaurant at Sarinah, Central Jakarta.

Betawi cuisine is rich, diverse and eclectic,[1] in part because the Betawi people that create them were composed from numbers of regional immigrants that came from various places in the Indonesian archipelago, as well as Chinese, Indian, Arab, and European traders, visitors and immigrants that were attracted to the port city of Batavia (today modern Jakarta) since centuries ago.[2]
