Pizzeria Cavalese.

Pizzeria Cavalese brings a distinctively local twist to Jakarta’s Italian dining scene, steering clear of paint-by-numbers mall dining in favor of handmade dough and culinary experimentation. Part of a respected pizza group led by entrepreneur Dicky Tjhin, this contemporary, exposed-brick space in North Jakarta is known for bridging classic Italian technique with bold Indonesian flavors. Alongside perfectly blistered traditional pies, the menu features inventive fusion toppings like salted egg and chicken betutu. A solid selection of pastas, vegetarian options, and desserts rounds out the offerings. With a relaxed vibe, outdoor seating, and a full drink menu, it is a highly practical yet creative spot for travelers looking to see how Jakarta adapts the art of the pizzaiolo.
