Affordable and Delicious

The Express Indo Lunch menu, available daily from 11:30 AM to 3:00 PM, brings the rich and authentic flavours of Indonesia straight to your plate, all for as little as $18.50. Perfect for busy professionals or anyone navigating the "cozzy livs" crisis, this menu offers a quick and hearty meal without sacrificing quality.

Menu Highlights

Kata Kita's Express Indo Lunch showcases a variety of dishes that are as satisfying as they are affordable. For just $18.50, you can enjoy Crispy Fried Chicken, an Indonesian take on the classic fried chicken, served with jasmine rice and a side of Sambal for an extra kick. Another popular choice is Soto Ayam, a traditional Indonesian chicken soup made with shredded chicken, vermicelli noodles, lime leaves, and a fragrant blend of spices.

For those with a bigger appetite, the menu also includes the signature Babi Guling dish, reimagined for express dining. This dish features Tasmanian pork belly that’s been slow-roasted for eight hours, served with green beans, shallots, pork sate, garlic Sambal, and jasmine rice for $28.

If you're in the mood for something with a bit of a curry twist, the Smoked Fish Curry is a must-try. Priced at $21, it’s made with seasonal smoked fish simmered in a turmeric coconut curry, infused with chilli, lemongrass, and kaffir lime, and served with rice.

New Satay and Spicy Cocktail Deal

In addition to the Express Indo Lunch, Kata Kita has rolled out a new Satay and Spicy Cocktail deal this August. For $48, you can enjoy a sate platter featuring six pieces of three different types of sate: Balinese Pork Satay, Chicken Sate, and Sate Padang (Beef Tongue). These are paired with two Spicy Sambal Margaritas, expertly crafted by Kata Kita’s bartender Dewo, who honed his skills at Bulgari Hotel in Bali. This cocktail, made with tequila, lime, simple syrup, and a generous dash of Sambal, promises to warm you up with every sip.

Whether you're looking for a budget-friendly lunch or a spicy after-work treat, Kata Kita’s Express Indo Lunch has something for everyone.
