Sourdough lovers, head to Kenikmatan Duniawi in South Jakarta! This viral spot offers delicious sourdough in two textures: soft for beginners and traditional rustic. The real highlight is the hands-on baking class where you can learn the craft directly from the founder. It's a great place to hang out, but be mindful of the smoky indoor area and premium prices. This unique weekend experience is a perfect alternative to your usual coffee run.
I'd heard for a while about this legendary sourdough bakery that went viral from Bandung to Jakarta, Kenikmatan Duniawi. Its high rating of 4.7 on Google[1] totally awakened the carb lover in me! It's right in Cipete, South Jakarta, so I just had to check it out!
The shop isn't big, but the vibe is very Chill, perfect for Nongkrong on the weekend. Their signature Sourdough[2] is really something. The most thoughtful part is, to cater to"pseudo" fans like me, they actually have two textures to choose from: soft and traditional rustic! Beginners can go straight for the soft version, and you won't find the sourdough hard enough to hurt your teeth at all, Mantap!
Of course, the absolute best thing about this shop has to be their baking experience class[3]! You can learn the craft directly from the founder, Paskal[4], who teaches you step-by-step how to knead dough from scratch. It's super fulfilling, and the experience is top-notch!
OK, time for some"real talk." The bread is delicious, but the prices are also"beautiful." A palm-sized loaf costs 50,000 IDR[5], so as for the value for money, it's really a matter of opinion. I tried the double chocolate cheese one and felt the flavor was a bit bland, nothing memorable[6].
Another major complaint is that the indoor area is actually a smoking section! Anjay! It's all smoky as soon as you walk in, so for all the girls who hate the smell of smoke, definitely be aware[7]. As for the service, well, it can get a bit chaotic when it's crowded, and your food might come out slow, so you need to be patient[8].
