To celebrate Indonesia’s Independence Day, Buka Mata Senayan, located in the lobby of ARTOTEL Gelora Senayan Jakarta, has joined the Waktu Indonesia Semarak campaign with a sweet surprise – its first collaboration with Pisang Ijo Cendana, titled Semarak Santap Manis.
Pisang Ijo Cendana is a well-known small business specialising in traditional Makassar treats, particularly the iconic pisang ijo. Using family recipes and quality ingredients, the brand has become a favourite in Jakarta.
Through this collaboration, Buka Mata Senayan and Pisang Ijo Cendana present five exclusive banana-inspired desserts:
- Pisang Ijo Original – Rp 55,000 net/portion
- Pisang Ijo Special – Rp 78,000 net/portion
- Kueke Ijo – Rp 55,000 net/portion
- Bolu Pisang Kopyor – Rp 55,000 net/portion
- Kanrejawa – Rp 39,000 net/portion
These dishes can also be paired with Kopi Tubruk Liong and Kopi Tjinta Tanah Air – legendary brews once favoured by President Soekarno – starting from Rp 68,000 net/package.
Yana Nuraga, General Manager of ARTOTEL Gelora Senayan Jakarta, said, “This first collaboration for Buka Mata is a special moment to bring authentic culinary creations to our guests. Together with Pisang Ijo Cendana, which continues to preserve Makassar’s traditional flavours, we aim to offer dishes that are not only delicious but also celebrate Indonesia’s rich culinary heritage.”
Sabrina Santoso, Owner of Pisang Ijo Cendana, added, “We are delighted to collaborate with Buka Mata Senayan. This partnership highlights local flavours while standing alongside international favourites. We hope it inspires younger generations to enjoy traditional banana-based desserts in new ways.”
The Semarak Santap Manis menu is available 24 hours a day at Buka Mata Senayan until 30 September 2025.
