Why it matters
Why Bakmie Jamur is worth your time
Bakmi is a Chinese-Indonesian staple, and in most shops it comes with pork or chicken. A vegan shop that keeps the wontons and noodles but drops the meat offers a rare way for a vegan to eat the neighbourhood food that locals queue for.
The low price matters too. For a family travelling with children or older relatives, a plain noodle lunch is easy to digest and unlikely to disrupt the day. It does not replace a full meal for those who like variety, but works as a quick stop in West Jakarta.

How to experience it
Order the noodles first. Spinach mentions bakmi sambal hijau, a balado bakmie with wontons, plain bakmie and dumplings, and says noodles are what reviewers talk about most. Portions are described as large and a meal costs around 26,000 rupiah, which you should treat as a rough guide.
There is no English menu, so look at the board or the photos and point. Staff are described as accommodating. Since one person often cooks and serves, a table of six may wait, so split into smaller orders.
Spinach says everything on the menu is vegan, which removes the usual worry about egg noodles in Indonesia. Ask about sambal if you avoid chilli, because the green and balado versions are likely to be hot.
