So, let me take you on a little culinary adventure to this gem called Dapur Sayur Vegan / Vegetarian Resto located in the bustling Teras Niaga Super Market, Mataram. Now, if you think vegan food is just a sad plate of lettuce, think again! This place is like a party for your taste buds, and I was ready to crash it!

First off, the prices are so reasonable that I felt like I was robbing them. I mean, who knew being healthy could be so wallet-friendly? I could practically hear my bank account sighing in relief. With a menu that’s more extensive than my Netflix watchlist, I was like a kid in a candy store—if that candy store was filled with delicious plant-based dishes!

Now, let’s talk about the food. I dove into the Chapcay Goreng and let me tell you, it was like a vegetable rave in my mouth! The flavors were dancing around like they were auditioning for a cooking show. I also tried the Brokoli Cah Jamur, which was so good that I almost proposed to it. And don’t even get me started on the Ikahu Cabe Ijo—it was spicy enough to make me question my life choices, but in the best way possible!

One reviewer said, “This place is awesome! Prices are very reasonable, and the menu is extensive. The food is quite tasty.” I couldn’t agree more! I felt like I was on a food tour, trying over 10 different dishes. Everything ranged from good to “I need to take this home and marry it.” Highly recommended? More like highly necessary!

Another guest raved about the “amazing vegan food” and suggested the soto and crispy mushrooms. I mean, who doesn’t love crispy mushrooms? They’re like the potato chips of the veggie world! And the service? Let’s just say the staff was so friendly that I half-expected them to invite me to their family BBQ (which, let’s be real, would probably be a vegan BBQ).

And here’s a fun fact: the place is cleaner than my kitchen after a surprise inspection! The bathrooms were spotless too, which is always a plus when you’re indulging in a feast. One reviewer even mentioned their dish, tahu tek tek, was one of the best they had in Indonesia. I mean, if that doesn’t scream “you need to try this,” I don’t know what does!

So, if you’re in Mataram and looking for a place that serves delicious vegan food without making you feel like you’re chewing on cardboard, Dapur Sayur is the place to be. Just remember to bring your appetite and maybe a stretchy pair of pants. Trust me, you’ll need them!

Syifa

As I stepped into Dapur Sayur Vegan / Vegetarian Resto, nestled in the bustling Teras Niaga Super Market in Cakranegara, Mataram, I was immediately enveloped by a warm and inviting atmosphere. The soft melodies of local music floated through the air, creating a perfect backdrop for a culinary adventure that promised to be both delightful and enlightening.

The restaurant boasts a vibrant menu that caters to both vegans and vegetarians, with a daily special that keeps things exciting. I was particularly drawn to their signature dishes: Chapcay Goreng, Brokoli Cah Jamur, and Ikahu Cabe Ijo. Each dish is a testament to the rich flavors of Indonesian cuisine, reimagined through a plant-based lens.

One of the highlights of my meal was the Chapcay Goreng, a stir-fried vegetable medley that was bursting with freshness. The crunch of the vegetables paired beautifully with the savory sauce, making it a must-try for anyone visiting. The Brokoli Cah Jamur was another standout, with its tender broccoli and earthy mushrooms harmonizing perfectly. However, I did notice some reviews mentioning that the vegetables could be cleaner, which is something to keep in mind.

As I savored my meal, I couldn’t help but appreciate the friendly staff who were attentive and eager to ensure a pleasant dining experience. The cleanliness of the place, including the restrooms, added to the overall positive vibe. One visitor noted, “Awesome plant-based restaurant with many options. Everything is vegan and there is so much to choose from!” This sentiment resonated with me as I explored the diverse offerings on the menu.

While the food was generally delightful, I did encounter a few mixed reviews. Some diners mentioned that the gado-gado sauce had an unusual bitterness, and there were comments about the sushi being overly greasy with minimal filling. However, these minor critiques did not overshadow the overall experience.

With prices ranging from Rp25,000 to Rp75,000 per person, Dapur Sayur offers an affordable yet enriching culinary experience. It’s a place where you can indulge in delicious plant-based dishes while immersing yourself in the local culture. As one patron aptly put it, “It is nice to see vegetarian places in Mataram.” This restaurant is a gem for anyone looking to explore the vibrant world of Indonesian vegetarian cuisine.

In conclusion, if you find yourself in Mataram, make sure to stop by Dapur Sayur Vegan / Vegetarian Resto. It’s not just a meal; it’s a journey into the heart of plant-based Indonesian culture, and a chance to enjoy a meal that is both satisfying and kind to the planet.
