This blog may seems to be made for male expats because assorted posts talk about Jakarta nightlife's unjust spots like spas, settle parlours, girlie's bars.. I also wrote a few articles about the relationships involving expats and Indonesian girls, or involving expats and bargirls, or about dating Indonesian girls.
If you are a woman, expat or not, existence in Jakarta, you destitution not think that revels concerning is a masculine affair to do only. On the contrary, offer are faithfully dozens of places that I'm convinced you will carry out, which are total, elegant and everyplace you will not find any prostitutes.
I asked some of my girl friends what were their favourite spots to go to in Jakarta to the fore writing this blog article. I was faithfully stunned to apprehend that not all of them like the vastly bars and nightclubs, and that they may not always be terrified to go to places everyplace assorted ayam party as well.
The resolution for that is that assorted single expat women are looking for single expat men, and one of the best ways to get them is to go to the bars everyplace masses of local girls are. B.A.T.S and Red Typical are between these. Of passageway every one are full of hookers, but it is also great to meet young expats. Out of the ordinary venues like Bartele's bars (De Hooi, Cazbar, EP), which are not girlie bars but still "bars for men" are very popular between expat girls, for the vastly reasons. The ladies night in Blu Martini on Wednesday and in MO bar on Tuesday night are burgeoning in popularity too. Best quality info: Ladies nights in Jakarta.
Innumerable of my friends also told me that girls can be pretty fed up with Jakarta's electronic position. It is true that electronic music, in fussy difficult, control and techno is played in 90% of the night clubs in Jakarta. If you carry out "real" music and social dances, you may not be so joyful with that. This is the resolution why assorted deportation women told me they loved venues such as Mistere (now Tempus, in Ritz-Carlton) or the Hacienda, which every one presume Latin/salsa nights. Out of the ordinary bars with "no matter which exceedingly than electro" are BBs in Menteng (now closed), Black Cat in Senayan Arcadia, Nine Muses in Kemang (now closed also).
Another ideas par for assorted of my girl friends was that they embrace next a bar or a night-club is well-decorated, in vogue and total. The favourites in this range are Invader in Quadrangle Indonesia, Buddha Bar in Menteng, Potato Supervisor in Comforting Put in at, Dragonfly in Gatot Subroto. These bars always come on a whim as the best places to go for having a drink with friends. For a date, I was told about Bibliotheque, Capocaccia, Fork, Cork & Fastener, Loewy and Purpose Bar.
At stay on the line, good venues for clubbing seems to be South Jakarta's highest celebrated discos, like X2, Dragonfly, Blowfish and Indochine. My friends are in median in the region of 25-30 years-old so none of them talked about Kemang's club. Intuitively, I think that 365, Venue and Nu Pottery are pretty popular between girls, particularly Indonesian in their early 20s.
The lesbian position in Jakarta is very self-effacing. I presume scrap info about it so I welcome a person to disapproval. From what I heard, the only lesbian club in Jakarta is Matra 21. Out of the ordinary venues are "lesbian-friendly", such as Funniness Cafe, Nine Muses and Claret in Abundant Hyatt. Likewise, the One Tree Bar in Blok M has a "Lesbo Sundown" on Monday (or is it Tuesday?).. (Update OCTOBER 2011: Nine Muses and One Tree Bar are closed)
I scene this slaughter will help you prepared everyplace to party at night in Jakarta if you are a woman. I appreciate that highest clubs and bars concerning signpost males, but if you aren't too instance, you destitution not presume any trouble having fun concerning. If you distinguish other venues of Jakarta nightlife popular with girls, please do not abate to comment!
Update OCTOBER 2011: So assorted venues concerning presume closed! For the latest information about Ladies' nights, you can read my post: Ladies' nights in Jakarta.
