Family dining at Cafe Batavia

We are enjoying a day in the old Dutch part of Jakarta on a nice day, called Batavia. It feels good to be out walking again too. Batavia is the old name for Jakarta when it was under Dutch occupation. The old palace was turned into a museum (with pretty poor signage).

Meal at the fancy Batavia Cafe. Turns out only Dale, Daniel, and I ordered
here while the rest of the family waited to go to a Padang restaurant.

We stopped for a meal at a fancy colonial restaurant, the Batavia Cafe. We didn't know it but the family stopped there just for us--they preferred spicy Padang food so were waiting to go to another restaurant.
