THE ARTOTEL Group is commemorating Indonesian Independence Day with a special initiative titled “Waktu Indonesia Semarak”. This initiative is part of the group’s loyalty program, ARTOTEL Wanderlust. Buka Mata Senayan, a coffee shop located in the lobby of ARTOTEL Gelora Senayan Jakarta, invites hotel guests to enjoy the festivities of Independence Day by presenting a sweet surprise through a special collaboration with Pisang Ijo Cendana.
According to Yana Nuraga, General Manager of ARTOTEL Gelora Senayan Jakarta, in a press conference on Thursday (08/14), said this initial collaboration with Pisang Ijo Cendana is a micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) specializing in traditional Makassar snacks, particularly Pisang Ijo. Using a traditional recipe and quality ingredients, Pisang Ijo Cendana has become one of Jakarta’s iconic Pisang Ijo brands.
“This program also features a menu inspired by one of the legendary first Indonesian president, Ir. Soekarno’s favorite drinks. This special menu can be enjoyed paired with Kopi Tubruk Liong and Kopi Tjinta Tanah Air,” said Yana.
Meanwhile, Sabrina Santoso, owner of Pisang Ijo Cendana, stated that on this occasion, we are presenting five exclusive banana-themed menus ready to pamper the taste buds of dessert lovers. We offer a variety of products, including original pisang ijo, special pisang ijo, kueke ijo, bolu pisang kopyor, and karenjawa.
“We hope that this collaboration with Buka Mata Senayan will maintain a concept that maintains Indonesian cuisine while still competing with other international dishes. This collaboration will provide new colors and inspiration for lovers of banana dishes, especially today’s younger generation,” she concluded.
These exclusive menus will be available for a limited time, until September 30, 2025, for 24 hours only at Buka Mata Senayan. [traveltext.id]
