A great beach body (or however you want to call it) has become a dream of many, men and women of all ages. Especially in this world of public scrutiny and self image, where you can show it off in all your social media platforms, endlessly. Although working out seems to be the norm, there seems to be no end in the many alternatives to ‘skip’ it.
For men especially, age, stress, lack of physical activity, and bad diet makes it almost impossible to even try to maintain an ideal weight. As the year adds up, so does the waist line. And the quest for a perfect body gets stored further and further away on the back burner. Are you one of them?

Unlike Bali’s Ubud or even Yogyakarta, Jakarta isn’t exactly brimming with vegetarian options, and the restaurants need a bit of hunting down. And as you look around, you will notice that most vegetarian restaurants can be found in West and North Jakarta where a lot of Buddhist communities reside, and with the majority selling Chinese style vegetarian. Another option is to go for Indian food, as they almost always offer vegetarian option. In this list we gather some of best selection for vegetarian food in Jakarta.
Loving Hut is one of the largest chain of vegan restaurants in the world with more than 200 outlets worldwide including Jakarta, Bali, Yogyakarta, Medan, Tangerang, Puncak and Kediri. The restaurant has a considerably consistent service, food quality, and is probably the easiest vegetarian restaurant to find in the city.
Another chain restaurant with multiple outlets, Dharma Kitchen offers a wide arrange of Asian, western, and Chinese vegetarian food with reasonable price. Also takes orders of vegan cakes and tarts.
This restaurant used to only serve Indian food under the name; Komala’s Indian Vegetarian Restaurant, until they recently revamped their menu by keeping their Indian specialties, and adding new more crowd friendly vegetarian selections such as burgers, pasta, and pizza. We recommend trying one of their many region-based Indian food like the Punjabi Feast, and North Indian Feast, among others.
