By this time tomorrow I would have arrived in Tokyo, where I would be gorging on gorgeous Japanese cuisine for the next 11 days! In the days leading up to this trip, I have been stuffing myself fat with several meals of yummy Indian, Muslim and various other local food....
Following my negative review of Ayam Bakar Ojolali in Lucky Plaza, several readers left comments urging me to visit another Indonesian eatery located within the same building – Ayam Penyet Ria.
