We invite you to join us to join us for this AFTERNOON IN BALI! Well... a very special corner of Bali in Jakarta 🌴

Everyone is always welcome to join our events. Our community is all about creating authentic in-person connections in this urban jungle.

Come as you are... it’s the best version of yourself.

ABOUT THE EVENT
This will be a fun one! We won't actually go to Bali, sadly, but we will visit wonderful Bali-style places in Jakarta!

The setting is very simple: We will hang out for coffee and then head for dinner. Newcomers are particularly welcomed! We are a very friendly and inclusive community.

For newcomers and all who might need to know what to expect:
We first gather at 4 PM at Bali Coffee Club in Lebak Bulus, a lovely Bali-style caffee (@balicoffeeclub).

We will chit chat and get to know each other, have some great Balinese coffee. There's a lovely open terrace on top, spacious and quiet, with many tables. There's also plenty of air-co rooms where we can sit down and chill.

There's no strict arrival time (macet macet) and people are welcome to arrive anytime until around 5.00 PM...

..at which time we will see how many people want to go to dinner, and call for a reservation at our dinner venue... an authentic Bali-style chicken joint! It's a delicious, new place nearby called Warung Bali Pak Gede (@warungbalipakgede).

You don't want to miss this! Don't let a Bule "bulexplain" what Balinese chicken is, but let me tell you this: it's good. Real good. And good price yaa. Portions are abundant. There's a lovely non-smoking terrace, too. If you come by car, both places have abundant parking.

At around 5.30 PM we will move to the Balinese dinner place. It's only 10-minute distance by walk, so let's go by walk! Or go by car or Goride, if you feel like you won't have enough energy for dinner 😂 You choice!

🚨 If you arrive after 5.30 PM without letting us know that you want to join for dinner, too, you might not be able to get a spot at the table. 🚨 There's no split bill at Bali Warung so bring cash or be ready to do a transfer to the person who takes over the bill. 🚨 I'd recommend you to bring mosquite repellent with you.

I hope that explain to newcomers & all what to expect but in case just text in the comment! Please read description first. Most questions are already answered 😊

It's the first time we organise this event! But you can take a look at all past events on Jakarta Friends here 👇🏾

And we invite you to join us for Pizza Night at Zapoli Pizzeria in Menteng!

Everyone is always welcome to join our events. Our community is all about creating authentic in-person connections in this urban jungle.
Come as you are... it’s the best version of yourself.

ABOUT THE EVENT
It's Firday night! Let's have the most delicious Neapoletan pizza in Jakarta at Pizzeria Zapoli in MENTENG. This is a new outlet from Zapoli and around the corner of MRT Bundaran HI.

Neapoletan pizza means soft dough and simple ingredients. The pizza is cooked in a typical wood-fire oven for just a few minutes, and the ingredients remain very fresh.

ABOUT THE VENUE
Here's their IG: https://instagram.com/zapoli

The menu isn't big; the quality is. Pizza starts at around 60k up to around 150k. Pizzeria Zapoli have artisanal soda which is refreshing with the salty, spicy pizza.

The place is 100% Halal. On their Instagram I read "no reservation" and "BYOB" (and your own glass with it). We might need to wait a bit to get a seat.

The restaurant closes at 10 PM and after dinner we can go together to have a drink in a place nearby (location to be decided together).

The place is small, and attendance to this event is limited to 6 persons. If you cannot join, please update your RSVP at least 24h before the event as respect to the organiser and people in the waitlist. No-shows will be kicked out of the group.

Be on time as we want to eat together. Do not be early as we want to eat together. Just come and enjoy the company of new and old Jakarta Friends. Everyone is welcome to join.

As no reservation is possible, we might need to wait a bit until a table big enough for us will be free. From experience, this should not take long.
