Like two sides of a coin, Jakarta’s 3 Seconds Bar’s outwardly cold modern minimalist décor is juxtaposed with traces of its concealed warmth. On the surface, the simplicity of their Shabu Shabu fare, along with the individual cooking pots in a glossy white bar reflect the essence of minimal practicality. 

Look a little deeper, and you will find delightful and tender surprises, such as the overlapping frames covering the seemingly plain black walls, the intimate impression of a communal meal evoked by the round bar, and the hanging lights over the black-as-the-night-sky ceiling, suggestive of a romantic stroll under the stars.
