Chicken Satay
Chicken SatayGenerally considered Indonesia's national dish, the skewered appetizer seasoned with turmeric and served with a peanut sauce is one of the nicer, ethnic ways to start a meal. If the decor of Tao is not worth the visit in itself, go for their chicken satay. The restaurant was formerly a stable for the Vanderbilt family, which was then turned into a balcony theater, and now is home to the best chicken satay in the city.
