What I did for my 4D3N Jakarta Trip????

Arrived at Jakarta at noon time 10/10/2009.....proceed straight to our hotel (Orchardz Hotel). The cost for the taxi is approximately IDR 130,000 with the exchange rate IDR 10,000 = RM 3.70!! What I did in this trip?? Sampled a lot of good Indonesian foods & drinks, visited a few nice clubs & lots of shopping!! Generally Jakarta is a busy city with it's multi millions population! Traffic jam is common in place through out the day!! Well.....cut short the story and looks at my new creation from my Nikon D-60 DSLR!!!



I bet there must be millions of millionaire in Indonesia alone! I am a millionaire for a day!! Spend 2 million plus on shopping alone....phew...I am rich man!!



Surprisingly many trains passed through Jakarta city through out the day!! One of the cheapest and most reliable mode of transportation in Indonesia! Next time I'll board a train to Bandung for shopping spree!!



A popular and huge shopping mall or town in Jakarta City Centre or Jln Sudirman. This is where I bought my 13th pair of converse! Nice place to shop for your likings! A great food court on the top floor with very modern, trendy & hip interior design! Worth to pay a visit!



This is the main roundabout in Jalan Sudirman! This is also the favorite place for the street protest! Almost all the 5 star hotels, international company, luxury mall etc located in this main road!



Certified by World Guinness Book of Records!! Longest dry slider in the world! Located inside the FX lifestyle more in Jln Sudirman, Jakarta!! Nice interior architecture & design! Very impressive and one of my favorite mall in Jakarta, Indonesia.



This is the infamous Saung Grenvil where I ate the most delicious fried crab in my life yet! A MUST TRY when u r in Jakarta! Price is average with a good meal for 2 with drinks = IDR 300,00 or about RM 111.00. Location: Kompleks Grenvil Blok AV-12 A, Jakarta Barat Tel: 5659517



The most delicious Crab I've ever eat!! Kepiting Goreng Sos Padang and remember to ask for the male crab as it taste better!! The waitress told me so! The name of this restaurant owned by an Indonesian Chinese is "Saung Grenvil". This place is kind of out of the city area! But many taxi drivers will know this place! HIGHLY recommended restaurant!



Another highly recommended dish is Kepiting Goreng Lada Hitam (Black pepper fried crab). Very fresh & spicy and the meat is so sweet that it simply melts in your mouth!



Nasi Padang is so famous in Jakarta that I can almost find it everywhere in this city! Well I did not try it....and I don't know why I miss it! So strange....maybe I am just too busy with my shopping! Well looked at the photo below........my 13th pair of converse sneaker!



My latest pair of Converse One Star sneaker that i bought in Jakarta for IDR 224,000! Worth it and this design I have not seen here in my country called "Malaysia".

Remarks: Jakarta is a very huge and dense city with millions of population! Traffic jam is so common in place and weather is extremely bad and air pollution is rift! Nevertheless the people I've met is nice and generally acceptable! Food is great, taxi driver is good especially the Blue Bird taxi and shopping mall is excellent!
