Indonesian Food Served In The Back Of A Convenience Store

Rating: 4.5; Vote: 2

Indo Java, an Indonesian market in the Elmhurst neighborhood of Queens, seems like an unassuming shop to passersby. But the smells coming from the tiny makeshift kitchen lure people inside to taste the flavors of Indonesian cuisine. Elvi and Viviane, both immigrants from Indonesia, run the convenience store-turned-restaurant. Elvi manages the market and Viviane does the cooking for Warung Kamis, a pop up at Indo Java that happens every Thursday. Their tiny storefront becomes a community hangout because of Viviane's cooking, like her beef curry, stir-fried squid, sauteed chayote, and fragrant anchovy rice. Viviane often uses imported Indonesian ingredients from the shop for her cooking. Indo Java has become a destination for other Indonesian immigrants and any food lover in NYC to gather, feast, and feel like home. jak: No stainless steel cooking equipment, no NSF certified appliances, no food handling certification. In most states the health department would have a field day.

as a food enthusiast, I really wish billion dollar companies like gym shark or Kylie Jenner cosmetics could at least donate just a fraction of their wealth to people who work so hard like this and give them the start of money to at least open another small space. is so unfortunate that billion dollar companies that are built up from inherited wealth have so much resources at the tip of their hands, but great tasting food in a convenience store built from blood, sweat and tears opening 7 days/week struggle to cope with the rent in New York

Mmmm enak ibu!
To all people over there: go eat our food, prepare for a new world of food! You will love it!
Also, when you are there, just buy a box of indomie. No questions, just do it.
