The malls here will be always the same. The lower ground is always food and supermarket. The food court will be on the higher or top floor with cinema. In between are clothes, shoes, furniture and sporadic higher price restaurants. I think most of Asia will be on this floor arrangement template 😂. At least that how I see in several SEA countries and East Asia countries like China, Japan and Korea. In Indonesia, malls is basically our weekend gateway as everything is available inside. We even have soft air gun shooting range inside it 🤣

Having lived in Jakarta, Manila, and now Bangkok, I can confirm that this has ALOT to do with the weather, the lack of good quality green space, and lack of well maintained cultural centres (e.g. musuems). Sadly, most people have to fall back on malls as only the rich can afford to go to local places where you can access such things that are typically much easier to access in more developed countries. After the initial glitz is well worn, it becomes abit soul-less and just a place to buy stuff and enjoy the aircon.

@@APmyre No hate here but even looking beyond comparison of m2, it is the poor design & maintenance of open green spaces and places of art that really makes such places less attractive for city dwellers in the SE Asia cities that I mention. Most parks have poor types of grass that are not comfortable to rest upon (I appreciate hardy grass is needed for hotter climates) and coverage is barely 60/70% with large patches of bare soil that no one can utilise. Children’s play areas are limited, old, and sometimes dangerous due to lack of maintenance. As for museums, they just don’t have public funds to hold a frequent series of quality exhibitions as entrance fees are suppressed and creates a circular effect. Sad truth for those (rightly) proud of their country but it is what it is.

@@ankokunokayoubi certainly the lack of public funds (most are run by governments) is a big cause as they can’t design/maintain such facilities and governments always suppress entrance fees.

About the egg. In Japan, the eggs are sorted thoroughly since they were picked up from the farm. Japanesse eat raw eggs with hot rice and the salmonella worries are almost none. In Indonesia, though, sorting eggs since the farm is not that common. So... But im sure in the mall that big the kitchens need to reach a certain level of quality so maybe it's alright.

yeah, cooking eggs like that tend to be risky in Indo because we dont have the quality control and accountability system that Japan has (I heard you can even scan barcodes and find out which exact farm the animal product you're buying is from). Therefore, runny eggs tend to be only at classy places. While RamenYa isnt quite classy price-wise, they're definitely gunning for quality on par with the real expensives (think Hakkata Ikkousha, Marugame). That said, in all my years cooking runny eggs at home I've never been poisoned probably because I only buy pricier eggs. Then again, years of eating street food cooked over literal sewer drains might've contributed to the ol immune system...

In USA, on weekend people go to Walmart, Shoprite, Kroger, Costco, Sam's Club, Aldi, Acme, Wholefood, Trader Joe's, Asian Supermarkets ,is so crowded, n if u drive it's not easy to get parking spot...

You ate Japanese noodle, that’s also Japanese egg 😀. Indonesian do not cook egg like that. You saw soju at Denny’s menu. Soju = Korean beer. Malls in Asia including Indonesia are very similar but very different than malls in the States 😀.

We don't have many parks where we can hang out in. We don't do things outdoors too much either. We go to malls instead, for spending times with family and friends. Even though, it's been years since I went to a mall, even before the pandemic hit.

Some of the mall in Indonesia, trying to put culture inside to attract more people to come&visit mall as a place for family times. Sometimes you will see fashion show event inside the mall, kind of promotion strategy for start up business for fashion products or non fashion products. By the way, I don't know why when every body eating noodle&it's kind (ramen, etc) makes me want to eating them too 😁 Nice combination the hot&the fine spice in a ramen's bowl 😁 Have a nice day enjoying Indonesian mall, may be we can meet in Surabaya someday. Stay healthy

I'm not a fan of mall sightseeing cause I feel like that's just an illusion or mirage kind of thing 😂 Man, I wish Indonesia has more open public space with lots of greeneries to combat the hot weather. That'll be really nice. Nice vlog though. Your vlog popped up on my KZfaq recommended vids. Maybe because my office is nearby? I was a screaming inside when you said you didnt find any food on the high floor, lol😂. Man that's where the foodcourt is. But the LG floor also has various restaurant. Btw ramen ya is actually not a really nice choice IMO 😂, you could try Hakata Ikkousha on the next visit. Have a nice stay in Jkt!

Not only because of the weather but also because of the limitation of public transportation, unlike in Developed countries where you have underground MRT where stations can be reached by walking and can reach various places. In Indonesia, there's only 1 line far from the residence. They put on stations in office areas and entertainment areas. I don't mean there's no alternative other than MRT, but mostly they are low-quality transportation, and there are a lot of thieves too. That's why it's rare for people to walk around outside.

I was in Jakarta a few months ago and when I bought stuff like "Polo" or "Ralph Lauren" boxers or shirts they had threads dangling from them and stuff.

Malls in Indonesia = extra giant Macy's Dept. Store which has almost everything from boutiques,films (or theatres whichever word you use),kids playground,cheap food stalls, cafes, expensive chain restaurants, Starbucks (some even have three in the same place >> I'm looking at you, Surabaya Tunjungan Plaza!),chemist (pharmacy/drugstore), and some giant supermarket. Most malls in Indonesia are air-conditioned given the ultra humid and hot climate. I hope you enjoy your stay here!
