Ramayani Indonesian Restaurant
1777 Westwood Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90024 (btw Santa Monica /Massachusetts Ave)
310 477-3315
Small, family run and clean restaurant in the heart of "Little Persia" as my friend MD told me. Usually when she eats there it is not so packed. On the night we went, it was very busy and full (not bad for a Wednesday night).
Pleasantly decorated with efficient service we had a nice meal in the Westwood Area. I only had a few dishes of Indonesian food (Gado Gado) but I wanted to have other stuff. We had lightly sweetened Chrysanthemum tea which MD recommended and I enjoyed.
Sambal Goreng Tahu Buncis string beans and tofu in a seasoned coconut curry-
Cah Kangkung hawaiian watercress quickly stir fried with garlic and chili and shrimp paste and tomatoes
Special Bakmi Goreng indonesian style egg or rice noodles with pork, chicken and shrimp
Bubur Keta Hitam a warm sweet, black wild rice pudding topped with coconut milk
The Sambal was not what a I expected kind of lackluster and not that flavorful with a tepid coconut sauce. I did like the chunks of fried tofu bits (but I enjoy tofu). The watercress was very good with the tomatoes, slight heat (even for medium I did not feel much), barely any shrimp paste (then again I am used to the strong Shrimp paste used in Chinese cooking). The Bakmi Goreng reminded me of lo mein but had Chinese sausage, egg, shrimp and chicken was good but nothing different from what I had before. One big highlight was the rice pudding---it was excellent. Not overly sweet and I enjoyed the texture of the black wild rice.
Prices overall were affordable and portions were generous.
8 forks out of 10 forks.
