Was going around the Orchard neighbourhood within Lucky Plaza and found out all about Indonesia Bolehh!! which had recently opened its doors at level four of the mall in May 2025 — Indonesia Bolehh!! takes up a space right across from the outlet of May Tailor & Laundry there. From its signboard, it does seem that Indonesia Bolehh!! is a multi-concept store that comprises of several notable brands for those whom have been frequenting Lucky Plaza — think brands such as Indo 6 Expres and My Little Coconut, though there are also mentions of Waroeng Sunda, Waroeng Pempek and Waroeng Vege that are a wee bit generic (we also did spot some boxes from the now-defunct Gading Street Food from 313@Somerset within the food preparation area in the store). The decor of Indonesia Bolehh!! can be described as a little haphazard; but is one that can be described to be pretty much like how one would expect a home-style Indonesian establishment to look like — pretty mom-and-pop aside from the placement of mobile food carts with some items on display that really ups the vibes of the entire space. There are a mix of high tables and proper dining table and chairs within the space as well, with the proper dining tables configured in a layout that seats pairs as well as groups up to six (6) pax. Considering how they are pretty much a multi-concept dining establishment at heart, Indonesia Bolehh!! segments its menu into sections such as Mains, Indomie, Bakso, Soup, Sides (Snacks), Rujak, Ropang, Aneka Kue and Dessert. Beverages available at Indonesia Bolehh!! would include items listed in Drinks category and My Little Coconut.

Skimming through the menu, we did notice that Indonesia Bolehh!! does carry quite a unique selection of dishes that isn’t quite as commonly found as most Indonesian stalls that one would come across whilst in hawker centres / food courts / coffeeshop stall settings — noting this, we did find an interest with the Nasi Gudeg which is an item that is listed in the Mains section of the menu. The Nasi Gudeg is described in the menu to come with elements such as sweet jackfruit stew, chicken and rice. Digging into the Nasi Gudeg, it is interesting to note that the sweet jackfruit stew was an element that felt like an attempt to replicate some sort of meat element whilst probably being braised with brown sugar and coconut milk — whilst being described as a sweet jackfruit stew, the jackfruit itself doesn’t really quite sweet as how we had expected it to be; very balanced whilst being more braised like a braised dish where the jackfruit came with a soft bite with its fibres being having been broken down. The accompanying chicken leg is what Indonesians may refer to as Opor Ayam — also can be described as braised chicken with coconut milk. The braised chicken does come with meat that comes off the bone easily; all that whilst coming with a braised gravy that comes with a soft hint of coconut milk that does provide a “lemak” factor to the dish much like Nasi Lemak. Not mentioned in the description of the dish would be the inclusion of an element that seems like beef tendon marinated with some form of sambal chili — there is a slight gelatinous texture that comes with a tension when one chews into it, while the sambal chili is a little bit similar to the Sambal Terasi which comes with quite a spicy kick that tickles the tastebuds even for those whom are tolerable to more than moderate levels of spiciness. Equally unmentioned in the description on the menu would be the hard-boiled egg that seemingly got drenched with the coconut milk-infused, braised gravy that came with the chicken leg

During our visit, we had also went for the Celimpungan; an item that is listed in the Soup section of the menu at Indonesia Bolehh!!. Indonesia Bolehh!! describes the Celimpungan to be a dish that originates from
Palembang, the capital of South Sumatra, Indonesia, and comes with elements such as fish dumplings in a “thick, savory coconut milk-based yellow curry”. Turns out, the Celimpungan has quite a lot in common as the more commonly found Lontong that we are more exposed to — perhaps due to the use of the coconut milk-based curry which does hint heavily of turmeric and coconut milk. While Lontong would usually come with rice cakes, the use of fish dumplings that carried a texture more similar to fish cakes with a bouncy consistency that carries some bite as well. Otherwise, it also comes with shreds of crunchy greens and carrots that help to add to the wholesomeness of the dish that also helps to further enhance textures within the soup as well.

We found ourselves going for the Ropang Nutella to end off our meal at Indonesia Bolehh!!. Whilst no description of the Ropang Nutella is being provided by the establishment, Ropang (which can also be otherwise known as Roti Panggang) refers to an Indonesian sandwich featuring grilled white bread with filling topped off with shredded mozzarella cheese. In the case of the Ropang Nutella, it does come with a spread of Nutella in between. The grilled bread does come slightly crusty and crisp on the exterior; all that whilst coming with a savoury note coming from the cheese and the nutty and chocolatey sweetness coming from the Nutella itself — something that is a crowd pleaser on its own. The Soda Gembira is an item that can be described as beverage coming with rose syrup, condensed milk which is carbonated — pretty much like a fizzy Bandung which is a great respite from all of spiciness with its floral notes and sweetness. Indonesia Bolehh!! does add on to the number of Indonesian dining establishments that are already in operation at Lucky Plaza — despite being an enclave for Filipino cuisine and goods, Lucky Plaza still does have a handful of Indonesian dining establishments serving up some seriously authentic Indonesian cuisine hardly found around the island. Indonesia Bolehh!! is one such establishment; whilst we hadn’t really given many of the Indonesian eateries within Lucky Plaza a go thus far to give a good comparison between Indonesia Bolehh!! and the various establishments within the same building, Indonesia Bolehh!! does provide an authentic taste of Indonesia with dishes that are just uncommon here — definitely a spot worth checking out especially for those whom are particularly interested with Indonesian cuisine coming from different parts of the country itself!
