Jalan H.R. Rasuna Said, built between 1973 and 1979 and named for the national hero Hajjah Rangkayo Rasuna Said, runs 4.9 km from Setiabudi to Mampang Prapatan.1 Embassies line it, among them those of India, the Netherlands and Singapore, and the Jabodebek LRT stops above it at Setiabudi, Rasuna Said and Kuningan stations.1

Along it are two of the Golden Triangle's large developments, Mega Kuningan at 54 hectares and Rasuna Epicentrum at 53.6.2 Setiabudi, named after Ernest Douwes Dekker, who took the name Danudirdja Setiabudi, was one of Jakarta's first housing areas after independence, planned in the 1950s.3 The towers hold the espresso counters; the older streets behind them hold small kopi susu shops and roasters.

Local tip: Lime Café & Bar opens at 06:00, the earliest start in Kuningan; for a Sunday coffee skip Tanoniha Coffee Shelter on Jalan Guru Mughni, which closes that day.
