Five culinary tourism destinations were launched in Jakarta in 2015 as part of the effort to develop the potential of gastronomy and identify the steps of traditional food preservation and the development of Indonesian food businesses in the face of globalization.
On 24th November, 2015, a national dialogue organized by the Academy of Gastronomy Indonesia (AGI) and the Ministry of Tourism announced the flagship culinary tourism destinations of the year, namely Bandung, Solo, Yogyakarta, Semarang and Bali.
