Noesaka Opens at Plaza Indonesia: Celebrating Indonesian Culinary Heritage through an Exclusive Collaboration with William Wongso

Artisan Kuliner Group proudly announces the opening of Noesaka at Plaza Indonesia, introducing an elevated yet heartfelt expression of Indonesian cuisine at one of Jakarta’s most iconic lifestyle destinations.

Noesaka is known for presenting authentic Nusantara flavors through a modern, approachable lens. At Plaza Indonesia, Noesaka showcases regional Indonesian dishes, from comforting classics to spice-forward specialties, curated for today’s urban diners while preserving the soul of traditional flavors. To mark its opening, Noesaka presents a special collaboration with William Wongso, Indonesia’s most respected culinary figure and a global ambassador of Indonesian gastronomy. 

Exclusive Collaboration: Noesaka × William Wongso

This exclusive menu, titled “Jejak Rasa”, is available at Noesaka Plaza Indonesia. Inspired by Stories of Indonesia, Expressed Through Flavor, Jejak Rasa reflects the meeting of two journeys: William Wongso’s lifelong exploration of Indonesia’s culinary heritage, and Noesaka’s commitment to bring Nusantara cuisine forward in a way that feels thoughtful, relevant, and approachable today.

Every dish in Jejak Rasa carries a memory of a place once visited, a flavor carefully preserved, and a table where stories meet. Guided by William Wongso’s culinary journeys and brought to life through Noesaka’s kitchen, each dish represents a culinary footprint shaped by place, experience, and tradition.

“Noesaka carries a strong vision in presenting Indonesian cuisine in a way that feels relevant to today’s generation, while staying true to its authentic flavors and cultural identity,” said William Wongso. “Through this collaboration, Indonesian cuisine — with its rich stories and depth of flavor will become more widely known and appreciated, and enjoyed within the context of a modern lifestyle.”
