Location is very good, in a historical building, with gamelan players and overall quiet environment. Lunch buffet at 90.000IDR/person, including desserts and coffee/tea. Good selection of Javanese and Indonesian food, nothing to complain about. Recommended.

We were taken there by our guide after a tour of the Palace for a buffet lunch. This was apparently previously, a royal residence. The architecture is fantastic. Nice to be able to get into such a fine residence. The food was average - we saw a large rat scurrying around. A few flies around the food. The experience was average.
