Indulge in Authentic Indonesian Flavors with The New Food Delivery Business in Spartanburg, Greenville

Designer’s Boutique Transitions to Mobile Store and Indonesian Food Delivery Business

Dewi Mayasari, the talented designer and owner of the former Spartanburg boutique, Dewi Maya, has ventured into a new line of business. While her boutique, previously home to her handmade purses and accessories, has shuttered its brick-and-mortar outlet, it’s not a complete farewell. The business is slated to transform into a mobile store and e-commerce platform while Mayasari and her family are prepping for a summer move to Charleston.

Moreover, Mayasari has been cooking up something new in Spartanburg – and it’s delicious. She officially launched the Tropic Asian Market, a distinctive Indonesian food delivery service, providing customers with dishes from her own repertoire, in addition to a broad range of packaged snacks and condiments from Indonesia.

To maintain the authenticity of her dishes, Mayasari goes the extra mile by growing less common herbs in her home garden. “In the Spartanburg-Greenville area, we have a large Indonesian community, but we lack Indonesian restaurants,” Mayasari spoke of her newest endeavor. “I want to offer authentic Indonesian dishes here in Spartanburg.”

Beyond fashion and entrepreneurship, Mayasari deeply treasures expressing her creativity and sharing her cultural heritage through food.

Tropic Asian Market Service Details

Those eager to sample Tropic Asian Market’s offerings can place their orders on the website, tropicasianmarket.com, from Monday to Friday. Deliveries are made to Spartanburg and Greenville counties every Sunday, with a minimum order of $35.

The delivery service features a rotating menu that showcases a variety of Indonesian delicacies. Popular dishes include the Pepes Ikan, steamed salmon wrapped in banana leaves, Rendang, a traditional Indonesian beef stew, and the Gado-gado, a vibrant salad entailing mixed vegetables, tofu and peanut sauce.

Unique Qualities of Indonesian Cuisine

A significant attribute of Indonesian cuisine is its sweet and spicy flavor profile, enriched by a slow-cooking process. “Indonesian is more sweet and spicy,” reflects Mayasari. “And the cooking process takes a long time. When I make beef stew, it’s going to take me four hours. When I make sticky rice, it takes hours.” This commitment to the craft of cooking highlights the unique flavor and exceptional quality of traditional Indonesian cuisine.
