In celebration of National Heroes' Day, Marriott Bonvoy is inviting guests on a delectable journey through the diverse and rich flavors of Indonesia with "Loka Rasa." This culinary tribute showcases eight of the nation's culinary treasures, skillfully curated by four of Indonesia's top culinary master chefs. Running from November 10, 2023, to December 15, 2023, this initiative aims to bring the essence of Nusantara to Marriott Bonvoy restaurants across the country.

Masterful Creations by Renowned Chefs:

From Mandapa, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve, Chef Bayu Retno Timur introduces "Tuna Sambal Kecombrang," a delicate fusion of yellowfin tuna, long beans, ginger torch flower, shallot, chili, and fresh kemangi. Chef Timur's "Rawon Sapi" features 48-hour slow-cooked wagyu beef short ribs, enriched with salted egg, tomatoes, beansprouts, and a luscious keluwek broth.

At Renaissance Bali Uluwatu, Chef I Made Wisnu Adiyatma presents "Kambing Panggang Basa Lalah Manis," a tantalizing grilled marinated lamb cutlet with a perfect balance of palm sugar and chili, paired with eggplant and coconut celengis cream. His "Be Pasih Menyatnyat" showcases the flavors of poached red snapper in a ginger torch curry sauce, accompanied by fish skin chips, cucumber, and coconut & ginger-scented steamed rice.

From The St. Regis Jakarta, Chef Rizky Annisa Apriliana offers "Padang Ayam Pop," a delightful dish featuring spring chicken, garlic, shallots, and candle nut with various sides like cassava tumbuk, ceciwis vegetable, green chili gel, and sambal balado puree. Her extended must-try is the "Red Mullet 'Kuah Asam Manis,'" which includes crab mousse bumbu kuning, fresh basil, tomato water, and fragrant lemongrass oil.

Executive Chef Denny of Sheraton Grand Jakarta Gandaria City Hotel shares his culinary expertise with "Dendeng Manis," showcasing dry beef in local spices, complemented by compressed cucumber, green tomato sambal, and cassava rice. His "Asınan Salmon" is a flavorful combination of confit salmon, steamed tofu, assorted vegetables, and a salmon skin touille garnish.
