Periplus Cafe and Books - Review from Alex

You think finding a coffee in a city of 12million in one of the worlds biggest coffee producing countries is easy? Think again its damn hard. After 8 days in Jakarta and on my second to last day before heading to Singapore I found this place tucked away next to a supermarket in Kamang. The coffee was apparently local. say apparently because it was seemingly too good to be local. Great coffee, good food and of course I stocked up on books. The coffee was primo, the books perhaps a mistake as I found Singapore had a great selection of book stores. Nevermind.
