Top-rated Indonesian Cuisine

Indonesian food and drinks are excellent... but not popular. How to change this?

Indonesian Cuisine Highly Rated....

The CNN Go travel magazine recently rated the world's 50 most delicious foods and drinks; its choices were surprisingly wide-ranging and cosmopolitan.
Indonesian cuisine had three entries; one food, two drinks.

...But Perceived As Not Popular
Meanwhile, recently appointed Tourism Minister Elka Mari Pangestu has announced she is considering new initiatives to promote Indonesian cuisine abroad.[3]

One proposal is the government gives financial support to Indonesian-themed restaurants in other countries, copying emulating a similar system in Thailand - home of CNN Go's #1 Most Delicious Food.

Indonesian Restaurants (L to R): "Cumi Bali" in Singapore,
"Es Teler 77" in Melbourne, "BaliBali" in London

However, there are already a significant number of Indonesian restaurants in other countries, without government assistance. Some may question whether this would be an appropriate use of the national budget considering the many other pressing needs of the nation in health, education, infrastructure, poverty reduction, etc.

National airline Garuda Indonesia advertises that it serves rijsttafel (an Indonesian buffet/banquet meal) in executive class on international flights. However, in economy class Garuda seems to only encourage foreign investment and prayer, not foreign appreciation of Indonesian cuisine.
More Opinions Wanted
What incentives could/should Indonesia give (if any) to encourage greater awareness and appreciation of Indonesian cuisine in other countries?
52% of foreign tourists like to sample local cuisine when visiting a country.[3] Where do you recommend for the best rendang, es kelapa muda and es cendol? And what other local specialities should they definitely try?^__^
