Bakso Boedjangan @ Foodcourt BIP, Bandung

With all the hype on social media and crowds everytime i passed, i'm curious about what it taste like. Currently bakso Boedjangan has 7 branches, 6 in Bandung and 1 in Garut. It's a lot, right? Well, here is the list:
credits to @baksoboedjangan
So when i strolled around at foodcourt BIP (Bandung indah plaza) and found their small stall, i came and tried it.
Bakso Keju - Rp 20.000

I had high expectation for their Bakso menu and ordered Bakso Keju. But it fails me huhu. I like the big Bakso Keju (Cheese meatball), it has a balanced cheese & meat taste. But the regular bakso taste not fresh. And the broth is oily, giving a greasy aftertaste on your mouth. Noodles also taste like an instant one. Not good not good.
Yamin Manis - Rp 14.000
Their Yamin Manis is also disappointing. It's overcooked, and too salty. Won't ordered this again.
Es Durian Kesepian - Rp 23.500
Now this is what comforts me after the storm, ES DURIAN KESEPIAN. It is gooodddd. Savoury, fragrant durian meat with sweet milky soup and ice. Ahh, so refreshing. I slurp it happily down to the last spoonful.

How's your dine in experience with Bakso Boedjangan? I'd love to hear it. For me, i don't mind coming back and give it another try, since i still found menu that i liked :D

Warunk Segood @ Jl Cihampelas, Bandung

Halloo hollaa... Here's another addition to indomie restaurant fever in Bandung, WARUNK SEGOOD. Besides indomie, they also serve fried rice, toasted bread, fried beancurd, chicken & french fries. And another good news is, all menu's price is under Rp 20.000. Yay! So enjoy your 'nongki' hangout time here :D

'Come in' Warunk Segood
From now on, i'll post 'come in moment' photo like this hoho.. It's what you see as you step in. Warunk Segood has this industrial, undone interior, wooden tables and chairs. I think it's nice for a little chit chat & snack time.

Kentang Kukukriuk - Rp 17.500
This Kentang Kukukriuk has a crispy french fries & chicken served with bbq sauce. What i like is the chili powdered chicken.

Ropang Jasuke - Rp 17.500
This one ME LIKE IT *nyam*
Ropang Jasuke aka jagung susu keju. You can taste all toppings mentioned above in a delicious way. And the bread are toasted perfectly. It has the good crispiness as you munch it.

Milo Shake, Silverqueen Shake, Red Velvet Shake @ Rp 15.000

Meet the beverages of the night, from left to right, Milo shake, Silverqueen shake, and Red velvet shake. Which one looked more delicious?
The milo thickness on Milo shake is good. I love it! 
But the Silverqueen shake is far from my expectation. It is a 'not too' vanilla shake with crushed silverqueen on top. I thought it would be blended like a chocolate shake. I don't reconmend this one.


Will i come back? Yup

Bigul Kenken @ Ruko Grand Eastern, Bandung

If you know what they're selling, i'm sure you can guess what Bigul stands for. Or you already have a guess?
Located at Ruko grand eastern, this 2 floor restaurant can easily be seen from Pasirkaliki street. They just opened around 2 weeks ago and has been crowded since. Made me so so curious. And finally last night, i landed HERE. It's been a delicious experience. So... if you're a pork lover, you really can't miss this place.

A thing to note first, if you look at their menu, you'll find 'Lawar'. This is Bali local vegetable dish, made of chopped vegetables with mixed herbs. Unbelievably, my carnivore friends like this. If you wanna try 'Lawar', you can order either Nasi Bagor or Nasi Bigul.

Nasi Bagor - Rp 36.363
Here goes Nasi Bagor, my champ of the night. Rice topped with seasoned fried pork belly, pork satay, lawar, fried peanut, and red chili sauce.The fried pork belly is YUM, more flavourful than the regular one. Pork satay meats are tender, has delightful smoky taste, and nicely seasoned. Uwaaahhh so good!
Nasi Bigul SP - Rp 36.363
Meet their signature dish, Nasi Bigul Sp aka Nasi Babi Guling Special. Rice topped with suckling pig, pork satay, fried pork skin, fried peanut, lawar, and red chili sauce. Their suckling pig is different from what i expect, i expect it to be more roasted. But it still tasty and flavorful. Fried pork skins are also crunchy.
Nasi Babi - Rp 36.363
Different from the other 2 above, this Nasi Babi is topped with lap chiong (pork sausage), ma ling (pork luncheon meat), fried pork belly, sunny side up, sauteed bokcoi and chinese cabbage. There's one more topping, it's kinda like roulade and has salty, weird taste. If you like spicy foods, just mix the green chili sauce with the rice. Oooh yeah....

Infused kangen water - Rp 40.909
For drink, i got infused kangen water in lemon, cucumber, and mint. This menu is only available in a big jar, and can be shared up to 5 people. Taste are bland, guess it's not been infused long enough.

Summary: I'LL BE BACK :D

Sugar Tribe @ Jl Trunojoyo, Bandung

Out of curiosity after looking at their instagram posts, i've come here. Currently there are 2 locations in Bandung (Setrasari & Trunojoyo). Sugar Tribe at Setrasari is a cake shop, while the Trunojoyo branch is a small cake & coffee shop with wooden rustic interior.

Red velvet - Rp 30.000
Red velvet, the mousse & cream cheese are not too neatly layered. There's still a hint of cream cheese & sour chocolate. But i found it overly sweet.

Mismatch - Rp 35.000
Mismatch, love the green tea mousse & little rice balls decoration. It gives a nice crunchy taste when you eat it. Don't like the green sugar coating tho. And again, it's too sweet...

MC Chocochips - Rp 20.000
This MC choco chips is far far from my expectation. The molten cake is not even melting inside and it's lumpy. Can you even call that a molten cake? The vanilla ice cream also has decent taste. I'll never ordered this again.

Overall, it's not a want to comeback for more experience. They really need to improve.

Pempek Rama @ Jl Rama, Bandung

Whenever i craved for pempek, i always came here to Pempek Rama. It's currently my no 1 Pempek restaurant in Bandung.
In case you don't know, pempek is originated from Palembang, Indonesia. It is made of fish meat (usually tenggiri fish) mixed with sago flour and served with a special vinegar. So special, you'll add some more *wink*
They provide 2 types of vinegar. If you're an avid spicy fans, try the bottle with red mark. But if you're not, take the other one.
Lenggang biasa - Rp 15.000
Lenggang is my personal Pempek favourite. Yum yum! This is a large size one along with 'Submarine' (i mean Kapal Selam lol).
Lenjer, Kapal selam kecil @ Rp 5.000, Pempek panggang @ Rp 6.000
There are also small size Pempek in various shape (like one I had in picture). I ordered Lenjer, Kapal selam kecil, and Pempek Panggang. Not too fond of Pempek Panggang, since it's harder to cut.
Tekwan - Rp 15.000
Last, this is Tekwan. First time ate it here, and i don't like it. The broth are too bland, you need to add chili sauce or soy sauce to make it tastier. The fish balls have good consistency, but lack of flavour too.

Okay now i'd love to hear about your personal favourite Pempek restaurant. Leave your comment below. See ya!

RM Sedap @ Paskal Hyper Square, Bandung

RM Sedap sells chinese food. If you dine in, there are 2 floors. Not much to say about the interior, since it is a simple one.

Ayam Nanking - Rp 65.000
For the food, i like their Ayam Nanking. It is nicely fried, well seasoned, accompanied with thickened sweet oyster sauce. 

Steamboat - Rp 60.000
Love their Steamboat chicken broth. But very petty for the ingredients. Only few sliced chicken, few sausages, meatball, lots of tofu and pakcoy. Huhuhu....

Cumi Goreng Tepung - Rp 60.000
Last, I don't like this Cumi goreng tepung. It's not crispy, and worst the squid is not fresh. Fishy fishy hmph!

My opinion, they need to improve. It is important to have fresh ingredients, and delicious cooking. Happy tummy is the best :)

Waroenk Anyar @ Jl Astana Anyar, Bandung

Just opened 2 months ago, Waroenk anyar has become one of youth hangout places in Bandung. It sells variety of light snacks, desserts, and drinks. They open daily from 5-11 pm.
There are only few tables here. But I like how they give enough space between tables to enjoy your crazy, chit chat time with your friends. Yay!
Seblak Siomay - Rp 10.000
Since i'm craving for seblak, i ordered this Seblak siomay. But it's not recommended. This menu lack spices.
All about Cheese
Next, i'm having all about cheese. Love the presentation. I actually expect mozarella kind of cheese spring roll. But i barely taste the cheese, it's more like a caramellized one.
Rabbit Ice Cream - Rp 25.000
If you follow me on instagram, you must have seen this one. RABBIT ICE CREAM. Love this one a lot! Adorable presentation, and a nice, refreshing lemon sorbet. Highly recommended.
Sujokdo - Rp 17.000
Sujokdo, don't ask me what that means hahaha, is single scoop ice cream (on picture is matcha & vanilla) topped with marshmallow, oreo, gummies, candy coated chocolate. Cute presentation. I just don't like the gummies & candy chocolate toppings they use.
Vanilla with All about Chocolate - Rp 25.000
Last one is Vanilla with all about chocolate. Two scoop vanilla ice cream with various chocolate kind of toppings.

That's all folks! I'll still come back to Waroenk Anyar to try their other menu, especially curious for their breadbox & indomie menu. Thanks for reading till the end 
