Healthy Foods Are Increasingly Interested, Canteens Can No Longer Move Without Innovation

JAKARTA - Food served in the canteen does not just meet the needs of the stomach. More than that, the ideal canteen is one that is able to provide a healthy, safe and comfortable culinary experience for its consumers. One of the canteens that managed to steal attention was the Teraskue Canteen.

Kantin, which was founded in 2011, has again stolen attention with the launch of its fourth branch at the Jakarta Sukapura Islamic Hospital. Teraskue is known not only for its complete variety of food, but also for consistency in serving cakes and food that is healthy, delicious, and affordable. Teraskue owner, Atika Tarsilo explained the philosophy behind his business.

"The launch of the Terasque canteen is not only about opening new branches, but also education. Don't immediately promote it, but first introduce the quality of food to the community," said Atika when met at RSIJ Sukapura, North Jakarta on Monday, December 8, 2025.

This philosophy is reflected in the menu offered, including traditional cakes and porridge which are made up with healthy and natural ingredients.

"Our food starts from porridge, we hold various preparations. All are traditional and have vegetarians. So for example, for the camp with corn and black ketam with sugar corn, for example," said Atika.

This menu shows how Teraskue combines traditional flavors with high nutritional values.

Atika also emphasized the importance of foods that are ready to eat and are visually attractive.

For the canteen, ideally it is directing what is served or something? What is certain is ready to eat. So what definitely looks good. If the canteen is cool, they are perfectly guarded," said Atika.

This philosophy makes every cake and Terasque menu not only healthy, but also captivates the eye.

Atika's biggest hope for her canteen is customer satisfaction.

"If I am under his guidance, I am taught that all these foods must return to the customer. So that the customer feels confident, comfortable, continues to enjoy what we serve," he said.

This value is also applied in making healthy cakes, which emphasizes the balance between taste, appearance, and nutritional content.

Support from employers' associations is also an important factor in maintaining quality.

"We from the Indonesian Open Service Entrepreneurs Association, we will definitely support its members, in order to maintain the quality of their food, food safety as well," said Tashya Megananda Yukki of the Indonesian Jasaboga Entrepreneurs Association (APJI).

"So there are a lot of us, programs that visit WKM as well, to provide management, food safety, food handling, and assist fees. So we will definitely do security-security for food or canteens throughout Indonesia. ," he added.

With this philosophy, Teraskue proves that cakes and healthy foods can remain delicious, halal, attractive, and friendly in bags. The cakes offered not only pamper the tongue, but also provide satisfaction and security for customers.

"Health does not mean bland. All the food we serve back to the customer so that they are comfortable and satisfied", said Atika

The launch of Teraskue's fourth branch is proof of its commitment to presenting delicious cakes and healthy foods, educating the public, and maintaining food quality and safety standards.
