Point Breeze/South Philly, Philadelphia · Indonesian · $$

Ena Widjojo started cooking the food of her native Indonesia for South Philly neighbors, and daughters Diana and Maylia have since carried the small cafe to national attention. You point at the day's stews and greens to build a plate over rice, which is how warungs in Indonesia have always fed people cheaply. The beef rendang, braised until dark and nearly dry, is the dish to anchor any order.
