Here is a review on upcoming KrisFlyer Experiences in Indonesia.
Javanegra Gourmet Atelier (J/N) is an Omakase-style private dining establishment in Jakarta.
They serve authentic Spanish-Mediterranean delights by Chef Andrea Peresthu.
Chef Andrea introduced Spanish delicacies to Indonesian restaurants’ connoisseurs. Specifically focusing on comfort gourmet food with premium quality ingredients imported freshly from Spain.
Specialties include Rubia Gallega, Spanish Carabineros, and Jamón Ibérico Bellota from Extremadura.
Furthermore, their specialty cuisines are combined with a curated list of European wine collection.
Additionally, a fine selection of aged gourmet cheeses from Alléosse.
Now, we can transform our KrisFlyer miles into an enriching experience.
How to earn KrisFlyer
KrisFlyer is the Frequent Flyer Programme of Singapore Airlines. That is to say, you can directly earn miles through flying with Singapore Airlines.
Apart from that, you can also earn Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer through credit cards. You can find more tips and tricks there. For example, Citibank has Thank You Points, which can translate points to miles.

Here are some of the food as an illustration you can expect from this experience.
Conclusion
All things considered, this is a nice experience and restaurant. However, 30,000 miles for this experience may not be fully worth it.
With the KrisFlyer extension announced, I would not rush to spend these precious 30,000 miles for a meal for two.
As an illustration, 30,000 miles can get you 2 return tickets from Singapore to Jakarta in Economy Class. Or similarly, almost a return ticket from Singapore to Jakarta in Business Class.
Therefore, if you have too many miles, you can have a nice meal at nice restaurant for free.
