Nasi Kari Apek Loso is the kind of establishment known best by those who have lived in the area for a long time. Operated directly out of a humble house, it offers an experience defined by old-school charm and consistently comforting flavors.
This spot is a staple for the community, attracting a steady stream of diners for both dine-in and takeaways.


A Hidden Gem That Brings Nostalgic Vibe
A True Local Legend
The eating area is small and tight, providing an authentic atmosphere that many locals associate with a "legit" breakfast experience. This intimate setting creates a nostalgic vibe that is central to its charm.
Because the space is limited and highly popular, guests should expect a crowded environment and are encouraged to arrive early to secure a spot.


To truly appreciate the legacy of Nasi Kari Apek Loso, plan for an early visit to Baloi Mas Garden, as the limited seating and residential parking often present a challenge during peak hours.
Whether you choose to dine in for the nostalgic atmosphere or opt for a takeaway, it is a must-visit destination for anyone seeking an authentic taste of local heritage.
Best For: An authentic, non-halal breakfast and trying local dish
Bold and Savory Classics
Nasi Kari Biasa: A balanced plate featuring rich, slightly spicy curry gravy and salty-sweet kwecap. It is served with aromatic crispy fried chicken and a famously addictive spicy sambal.
Nasi Kari Jumbo: For those with a larger appetite, this version offers an extra portion of rice to soak up the bold flavors.
A Must Try Addictions
Fried Chicken: A standout side that is crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. It is seasoned with a signature coriander seeds (ketumbar) aroma and peppery, salty notes.
