In Jakarta, you can now easily find a place that offers tapas. Tapas itself is not a name of the dish, but a culture of eating a variety of Spanish snacks. Usually tapas are often found in bars or cafes. One of places in Jakarta that presents tapas is Nidcielo, which is located on the 2nd floor of SOHO Building, in South Jakarta.
Taken from Spanish slang which means the night sky, Nidcielo gives off an impressive vibrant atmosphere for its visitors. When you go inside for the first time, you will be enchanted by the colorful arrangement of stained glass ceilings.
