Pot Luck: Not Your Ordinary Coffee Bar & Library
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • This trendy coffeeshop is popular among students and the youth in bandung. What they offer is mostly the same as common coffeshops, but I love the atmosphere, the minimalist interior design, and the trendy visitors. There's also a small library and an art galery. Last but not least its most def cheaper than STARBUCKS!! ^__^

    Sam's Strawberry Corner: Light Food & Drink After Shopping
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • Located in a corner in front of Uptown factory outlet, this place is for you to stop after you shop along the Dago road.

    Eat some light food like 'mie bakso' (noodles with meatballs) or siomay (fish cakes served with peanut sauce), and drink the fresh strawberry juice (+milk if you like) or Cappuccino Blast.

    You can also buy strawberries for a low price. There are also many types of snacks you can buy to bring home.

    Try the cheese cake.

    Mie bakso and Cappuccino Blast.

    There's more and more...
  • Tip Rating:
  • There's more and more restaurants in Bandung that's offering International cuisines. You will find all kinds of pasta and its sauces, Japanese food, beef stroganoff, Hungarian goulash, zuppa zuppa, steak etc and some of the French dish that the waiters can't even pronounce (they can't even speak English, how the hell can they pronounce French?) This variety you can have in one restaurant.

    These kind of restaurants offers more of the atmosphere, the landscape, the interior, the fancy cutlery, table mats, creative designed menus, chair, iced water in a wine glass, etc. Some taste good, some just get it all wrong. (Imagine eating beef stroganoff that tastes like beef with mayonnaise and having it with rice.)

    Locals will refer to some of these places as a 'cafe' but don't get confused. It's not like in other parts in the world who has more coffee and light meal. In some restaurants they still serve local dishes.

    If the true flavour of Bandung that you're looking for,... this is definitly not the place to go. But, if those cool, pretty girls and guys you want to meet... then you're in the right place!

    Kedai Nyonya Rumah: Kedai Nyonya Rumah
  • Tip Rating:
  • It's in the city area but it has a unique atmosphere that makes you feel like you're in the other part of town. Unlike any other restaurant of its type, you can find families, teenagers, working people, uni students, etc. Simply suits everyone. Good price. (you can have soup, main meal, and drink for roughly U$ 3-4)

    Try the Indonesian dishes. They're all nice. Try the sop buntut (oxtail soup), buntut goreng (deep fried oxtail), lontong, very nice fried rice, java steak (traditional recipe), Lamb/chicken satay. All nice.

  • 1.Batagor Kingsley, similar with dim sim 2.Batagor Riri(people said it's nicer, but, haven't actually tried myself) 3.Martabak San Fransisco (How can I describe this one... it's very thick pancake filled with either chocolate sprinkle, nuts, or cheese) should try this one if you go to Bandung! Trust me, it's very nice. 4.Pisang Molen Kartika Sari (It's semi pastry bread filled with a certain type of banana and some cheese) Don't miss this one definitely. But you might have to order it the day before. You wouldn't get any if you just go there, can just smell the aroma and regret not ordering. God knows how many thousands they sell each day.

  • PLACES TO EAT

    Bandung is heaven to satisfy your taste buds. From traditonal food sold by street vendors up to international ones in fancy restaurants. A warung is regarded as a poor man's restaurant. But on Jl. Bungsu next to Puri Mas Bakery, you could see the newest BMW and Mercedez parked in front of a small lane famous for its Sekoteng Ice. By far the best food money can buy and is served in these makeshift foodstalls with canopies, hardwood benches or stools, and glowing with hissing gas lamps. Open after 5:30 pm.
    Groups of nightstalls located in the corner of JI. Merdeka and JI. L.L.R.E. Martadinata spread mouthwatering smells from sizzling sate on red hot glowing charcoal braziers. Try Madurese, chicken, beef, or mutton sate and various kinds of soto, an Indonesian thick soup. Jl. Cikapundung Barat stalls (occupying sidewalks used as a selling place for secondhand books at noon) serve all kinds of popular Indonesian food. Sate Padang Pak Datuk is worth a try.

    Near the RRI building on Jl. Diponegoro, you can taste local delicacies such as gorengan (sort of Japanese tempura) from tofu, sweet potato, taro, pineapple, jackfruit, banana and comro (mashed cassava filled with fermented soybean cake). A sip of bandrek -ginger drink- and bajigur -coconut milk sweetened with palm sugar- in a cool night is a nice treat. A piece of sweet awuk (coneshape rice cake with layers of palm sugar) can be enjoyed in Awuk Cibeunying stall. Roasted corn on a cob with four flavors, seafood, Indonesian style Chinese food, pecel lele (fried eel fish with yummy sauce), fried goldfish and chicken porridge all are available.

    Feel thirsty when strolling around Alun-alun, go to PakAceng's ice juice pushcart on Jl . Kapatihan in the mouth of a blind alley, next to 'Damai' shop (pay attention to 'Shinly' &'Krizia' billboards). Es campur (mixed ice) or if you want a sterile one, just ask for fresh orange juice with young coconut water placed in a plastic will be made for Rp. 750,-. Since 1967, Pak Aceng has been a famous es campur seller.

    As a rule of thumb, warungs line and crowd in almost every intersection. But a good sense and luck play an important part in finding a good warung with fair price and nice food which does not upset your stomach.

    Lotek Kalipah Apo, famous for its lotek and gado-gado since 1953, serves all kinds of sweet tasty kolek with thick coconut milk plus pieces of bananas, and rice cakes. A variety of rujak, Indonesian fruit salad, is ready to be tasted. Be wary of the hot sauce of the rujak. Avocado juice, mixed ice, young coconut ice and cendol ice, -colored rice drink with palm sugared coconut milk- can make you real aficionados of these desserts.

    Stalls along Jl. Rama offer Indonesian style fried chicken, Chinese food, and much more. The best pempek -a sort of fish meatballs dipped in hot vinegar sauce- can be eaten in one of the stalls here. It's a Palembang specialty.

    Craving for western delights, Tizi has a wide range of German touch bread, cakes, cookies, pan cakes, and steaks. A cart selling colenak(roasted fermented cassava root )at the mouth of Jl. Kidang Pananjung is also worth a try. Glosis with romantic lighting and cooler climate of an uphill area could be a perfect place for dinner. Braga Permai with its original Dutch era cake recipes would be a cozy place to recall the atmosphere of old Braga Street.

    Queen Restaurant offers luxurious Chinese food while Dai Shogun serves qualified Japanese food, sit facing its heartsoothing garden. Paregu offers less expensive Japanese food with eat your fill Yakiniku and Shabu-shabu. Hanamasa on Jl. Merdeka serves buffet Yakiniku.

  • Don't know whether I should call this a restaurant,...
    It's actually food stalls (warung).
    It's really crowded specially on Sunday mornings. People jog there in the morning, and after they finish they eat breakfast. They have various types of food here. Porridge, Noodle, traditional meatball, satay, gado gado (Indonesian salad with peanut sauce), otak otak, etc. Nice traditional drinks. They have some fruit, meat, ready made food, pirated CD and VCD like local movies, Indian movies. Parking fee in Indonesia (except for shopping malls) is 10 cents (=Rp.1,000) unlimited time. The food price vary from 50c- $1. A bowl of meatballs of 10 is Rp.5,000 or 50c, porridge is around Rp.7500 or 75c. Cheap, nice food.
