JAKARTA - In a country with a majority Muslim population such as Indonesia, halal certification is an important factor that affects the preferences of culinary connoisseurs. Halal labels are not only a matter of compliance with religious rules, but also reflect quality, transparency, and respect for diversity.

Restaurants that have this certification are not only able to attract the attention of Muslim customers, but also build cross-community trust, making it a crucial element in the modern culinary world.

Hal ini juga yang ditangkap oleh The People's Cafe, restoran dari Ismaya Group, yang sejak November 2024 telah memperoleh certifikasi halal.

This certification is an important milestone in restaurant travel to create a culinary experience that is friendly to all people, especially customers who comply with halal diet rules.

Cendyarani, President Director of Ismaya Group, said that this certification is in line with The People's Cafe's vision to serve high-quality dishes that are processed ethically and transparently.

This provides guarantees to customers that each material and processing method used has met strict halal standards according to Indonesian regulations.

"We always hear and respond to the growing needs of customers. Halal certification is a tangible manifestation of our dedication to creating relevant and inclusive dining experiences."

"This ensures that all guests, including those who adhere to the halal diet, can enjoy food in peace. More than that, this is our commitment to provide quality, authenticity, and a friendly atmosphere while celebrating Indonesia's cultural wealth," Cendyani said at a press conference in Jakarta, recently.

Efforts to obtain halal certification are apparently not easy. Starting from the selection of raw materials produced ethically to the thorough processing process, each step is taken with full attention.

This not only ensures compliance with halal standards but also reflects the restaurant's commitment to providing a safe and comfortable dining experience for all.

On the same occasion, Ahmad Haikal Hassan, Head of the Halal Product Guarantee Administration (BPJPH), appreciated this step.

Halal certification provides guarantees to consumers of products that are served safely and in accordance with regulations. This is an important step in building trust, especially for Muslim customers. With this certification, The People's Cafe not only meets the standards set but also shows dedication to diversity and inclusiveness in the culinary world," he said.

With halal certification, this restaurant not only offers delicious food but also a sense of security for customers who prioritize halalness in choosing dishes.
