House special green chilli beef ribs with steamed jasmine rice and a side of steamed vegetables.

Discover authentic Indonesian cuisine in the heart of Carlton at Kantin on Lygon Street. Expect a heart-warming flavour safari, laid-back vibes and an atmosphere buzzing with taste excitement at this Melbourne eatery, where a bright yellow façade and awning greet diners carrying through to an interior of trailing greenery, blond wood furniture and black stools. Pair an ice-cold Bintang beer with house special corn fritters, served with tomato salsa and chilli, or satay chicken skewers and peanut sauce; before finger-lickin’ good beef ribs with chilli and caramel dip. Seafood lovers opt for spicy grilled whole fish with turmeric rice and steamed vegetables, or prawns in Manado spices and coconut gravy; or perhaps chicken curry, vegetables, fried wonton skins and noodles hit the mark.
