Mie Jakarta (CLOSED)

One of two Indonesian restaurants on the block, cozy Mie Jakarta specializes in noodles (that’s what mie means). You can’t go wrong with sweet chicken satays or the gado gado, a salady mix of chopped lettuce, sprouts, nuts and boiled eggs (each $6.50 and covered with sticky peanut sauce). But the best things on the menu are the Indonesian fried noodles called goring and the chicken noodle soups (with wontons, $5.50), which have the perfect mix of sour, salty, sweet and comfort in every slurp. No matter what you order, be sure to add hot sauce!
