The information desk near the main entrance often has a brochure or listing of all the stores in the mall. Malls are not only a place to shop, but increasingly, a recreation site. Movie theaters, ice skating rinks, arcades, laser tag, simulated rock climbing, simulator rides, coin operated children s rides, food courts and restaurants abound. In clean, air-conditioned surroundings you can shop, entertain the kids and have a nice meal or snack. Restaurants feature Indonesian, Asian and western menus from snacks to fast food to family restaurants.
Malls utilize that great Indonesian service, the car call.
Your driver drops you off at the entrance and disappears into the bowels of the parking lot to await your departure call. When you re ready to leave, look for the car call counter outside the main exits. Tell the attendant the name of your driver and he will call him from the garage to pick you up. While the current economic slump has effected the buying power of consumers, the malls still seem to be popular destinations for window shopping, buying the basics, or weekend fun.
