The cross-culture between Chinese settlers and the local Indonesians, called Babah Peranakan, played a major influence in the original Chinese and Dutch gastronomic cultures. The Chinese settlers have adapted the usage of traditional Indonesian spices and herbs into their home-style cooking. This fusion of exotic cuisines is presented in all its glory in the Romantic Babah Peranakan Jawa Dinner in the Babah Room at Hotel Tugu Malang.
Stepping into Babah Room will take you on a time travel back to the old Straits Chinese days. Admire Tugu’s precious collection of Wayang Potehi, old photographs of Chinese families that once lived in Java, vintage dinnerware from the 1930s, among other Peranakan memorabilia.
The Romantic Babah Peranakan Jawa Dinner is priced at IDR 1.200.000 nett per couple. The Babah Room can accommodate up to 50 people.
