Kafé Kontrast

Nordic restraint meets the lively energy of Jakarta’s kopitiams, right in the heart of De Pijp. Warm wood and a deep-red tiled bar, topped with a sculptural LED ribbon, open straight onto the bustling kitchen. Here, Swedish chef Ellinor Strinnholm cooks Indo-inspired dishes, reimagined with a gentle lagom touch. Think oysters crowned with tangy sambal matah. Or kaya toast on thick sourdough served on mismatched vintage plates. Open for brunch and dinner, the bistro hosts an annual Midsommar celebration featuring collaborations with young artists.
