Claypot Popo in Jalan Sabang area (Tarida Angelina/VOI)

JAKARTA - The rainy season has finally arrived. In the middle of the rain that often comes unpredictably, soup food becomes an option to simply warm the body. Claypot Popo, a place to eat that stands on Jalan Sabang can be your stopover place.

Founded in 2014, the name Claypot Popo was given because it is an expression of the grandchild's gratitude to his grandmother, so that the food served at Claypot Popo looks like grandma's made. This restaurant is dominated by green.

As the name suggests, Claypot Popo serves food in a clay bowl. The food served is misua - like rice noodles but a softer texture - and egg-flush rice. Many use thick broth, Claypot Popo is the right choice for those who like warmth.

Because it is served in a clay bowl, the food does not cool easily. Apart from misua and egg flush rice, Claypot Popo also offers vegetable choices such as fumak, kailan, and siongmak. The choice of VOI this time fell to Claypot flush boiled eggs and Claypot misua tofu salted eggs.

You can choose the choice of topping with chicken or meat. Cooked egg flush claypot is rice that is not mushy (even though it is in thick sauce) combined with pieces of tofu, chicken, and egg.

For misua tofu salted eggs, we were surprised by the sizeable portion. The wet misua is poured over with an abundance of salted egg sauce and added with tofu slices that have a savory taste, making them perfect to eat when they are just served to the dining table.

If you want additional snacks, Claypot Popo has team bread, chicken dumplings, and choipan to complement your meal. At that time, we also ordered a portion of chicken dumplings to close our meal at Claypot Popo. Different from most dumplings, the dumplings at Claypot Popo are quite dense and filling.

The Claypot Popo nuance is like the atmosphere of an ancient dining place. In the interior, there are many accessories such as standing cats, red lanterns, 'old school' stickers and photos of old artists. The place is not wide enough, so you have to wait a little long because Claypot Popo is often crowded with visitors both during lunch and home work.

However, there is nothing wrong with waiting because you can feel the comfort in this restaurant through their food. Claypot Popo can only be visited from 11 noon to half 9 in the evening. Apart from Jalan Sabang, Claypot Popo also has another branch in Kelapa Gading.
