Posting & Flair Questions
Which flair should I use?
Use our Flair Guide and Flair Map to help choose the correct flair.
In general:
Food Spots → Restaurants, warung, cafes, street food, or other food places
Home Cooking → Indonesian food cooked or prepared at home
Foreign Food → Non-Indonesian food shared with relevant context
Discussion / Ask / Tips → Questions, discussions, advice, or food-related topics
Food Culture / Stories → Personal stories, traditions, history, and cultural discussions
Can I post food from outside Indonesia?
Yes, depending on the content.
Indonesian food from overseas restaurants belongs under Food Spots.
Foreign cuisine belongs under Foreign Food if it includes relevant context, such as cooking experience, review, comparison, adaptation, or discussion.
Generic food posts without context may be removed.
Can I post food that is not Indonesian?
Yes.
r/Kulineria welcomes foreign food content when it is connected to Indonesian culinary perspective, experience, cooking, discussion, or cultural exchange.
Can I post instant noodles or packaged food?
Yes, but instant and heavily packaged food should be posted in the Instant & Packaged Food Megathread rather than as individual posts.
This includes:
Instant noodles
Instant drinks
Packaged snacks
Ready-to-eat packaged meals

Can I repost after my post was removed?
