A longtime mobile eatery specializing in halal Indonesian cuisine is now cooking inside new permanent Plano digs: Angel Touch Kitchen<\/a> will officially open its doors on October 29 at 280 Legacy Dr. Ste. 300, at the corner of Legacy Drive and Chase Oaks Boulevard. <\/p>\n

Though it’s the restaurant’s first permanent home, Plano diners might find the food and brand familiar. Indonesian-born chef and entrepreneur Yenni Haryanti has been operating Angel Touch as a catering and mobile kitchen since 2014. Her frequent appearances at festivals, corporate events, and parties throughout Dallas-Fort Worth have attracted a large following.<\/p>\n

In 2021, Angel Touch opened a semi-permanent spot inside a Carrollton food court where, “after years without an Indonesian restaurant in DFW, the response was overwhelming,” Haryanti told Voyage Dallas. “We sold out in hours and customers traveled long distances for our food.” <\/p>\n

Last summer, Haryanti announced plans for a permanent Plano restaurant. Social media<\/a> followers were treated to peeks at what it takes to maintain a mobile diner and prepare for a restaurant opening, as the business posted photos of hood vent cleanings and inspection preparations and shared thoughts on the experience: “Running a small food business comes with a lot of behind-the-scenes work \u2014 long hours, cleaning, prepping, maintaining equipment, and making sure everything is done the right way. We\u2019re tired, but grateful to keep doing what we love.”<\/p>\n

\u201cOur beef rendang sold out two days in a row, so we\u2019re making a fresh batch,\u201d the kitchen posted at 3 am on Facebook a couple days into the soft opening. \u201cWe give it a little extra time to make every bite tender and full of flavor.\u201d <\/p>\n
