There's a last 5th Floor (Melati Venue), but don't have its documentation because it was too crowded on the day I visited. Melati Venue is in white theme, full of white. It created as a private room. Totally recommended for you in case you want to make your intimate gathering and need somewhere private.

1. Mie Char Siu Bebek (IDR 59K)

3. Nasi Goreng Buntut (IDR 69K)
Never regret with PLATARAN's fried rice product. I enjoyed so much this "Nasi Goreng Buntut" and they tried not too mainstream, they haven't used soy sauce to the rice, using green chili instead. Additional grilled oxtail to make it more tempting. Feel so comfort because of that.

10. Bubur Kepiting (IDR 59K)
First impression just by reading the menu name, a porridge with shredded crab meat. But it was wrong. They present the porridge with whole crab (body + claw) on the top (It just like a crab swims in porridge pool) They want you eat the crab freshly. A bit effort but delicious in the end. Take a look!

I bet something is not right on your throat after seeing foods, you might need something to drink. Choose these one.

1. Kopi Ungu (IDR 37K)
Hey there's no food-colouring on it, It comes from Taro but you will taste it like a coffee. Ended up with whipped cream on the top and coffee bean. Looks sexy, huh?

2. Kopi Pink (IDR 37K)
Once again, you guys are safe when drinking this Pink Coffee. Hell yes, it comes from Strawberry. But It tastes like a coffee since it has strong espresso shots. Additional cereal, vanilla, and milk.

5. Smoked Beef Coffee (IDR 39K)
Some of you will say that is the weird thing to use savory ingredients on coffee. But it happens here at TERAS DHARMAWANGSA. Caramelized smoked beef on the top seems cool huh? Since it hasn't affected a consistent flavor of espresso.
