My husband and I are going home (my home) for a visit to Washington, DC, the first week of February, and I want to find a good Indonesian place to eat. I am going to check out The Washingtonian magazine and Wash Post to see what is available, but if anyone has first-hand knowledge of a yummy place, I'd love to hear about it!

Thanks!

I'll have to get the name. There was a place in Wheaton called the
Satay House or House of Satay. bad location. So they moved downtown,
not too far from 19th & M, I forget the exact location. They changed
their name to something that doesn't stick with me. email me back if
I forget.

Malaysia Kopitiam
1827 M St NW (on M between 18th & 19th)
Washington , DC 20036
Cuisine: Malaysian

ok, it's not Indonesian. There may be one in Georgetown which was
so-so++ many years ago. There is one in Wheaton which is so-so-- many
years ago. I've only been to Kopitiam once & they were still settling
in to their new location & it was sev. years ago, but i went to its
predecessor in Wheaton OFTEN & loved it!!

there is a chain called Penang & I think has a downtown location .
Some things were excellent; some tasted of being a chain.

TONS of excellent Thai restaurants. A fabulous Chinese rest. in
Wheaton.

HTH, Judy

PS, feel free to ask me any questions about specific rest's. J

Thank you - this is great information! I am happy with Malaysian, as well,
and my husband has never had it, so he will be enthusiastic, too!

I grew up (and my parents still live) not far from Wheaton, Silver Spring,
etc., so I am familiar with the Thai restaurants in MD. DC, and NOVA. My
first Thai experience - wow, 21 years ago when I was 14 - was at Thai Derm
on Bonifant Street in downtown SS, and I still go there when I am in town!

Thanks again, Judy - we appreciate the help!

Cafe Asia in Balston.
The menu is mix of indonesian/thai/chinese/malysian/japanese.
Excellent food.
