Cafe at Dago Endah Golf Course, Bandung

Balls Up!

One of the latest hobby that Aswin picks up over the past few years is playing. Although not routinely (because lets face it, golf is still considered as premium sport in this country), he tries to play it as often as he can.

One of the main gimmicks when playing golf, for Aswin is the ability have nice meal after playing golf. As a pro golf player food blogger eating enthusiasts, he always finds it hard to avoid a good meal after an exercise of driving golf car.

One place in particular where he likes to play golf is in Dago Endah, and one of their main delicacies is their Cikur Fried Rice. It is crunchy, delicious, and quite hearty. Perfect for filling up your energy after doing sport.

Enjoy!

TwoCents, Jalan Cimanuk, Bandung

For a while we are searching for the right time to visit this coffee vendor, but with hectic schedules that we have, along with the crowded people that came to TwoCents makes our visit delayed over time. 

Until one day, one of our cousin, ask to meet Aswin for business development consultation. We propose to meet up here. Their design is very warm and intimate. Perfect for meeting or a session of quiet reading. They also incorporated a unique ordering system specifically found in modern coffee shop, where we pay for the meals and coffee that we ordered prior to sitting. Then we take our order after they finished making it.

We tried their bagels (Aswin's favorite type of bread besides focaccia), and their open sandwich. We also ordered their cold and iced coffee. The overall experience was delightful. One of the many coffee shops vendors that you should visit if you are happened to be around the area.

Enjoy!

Sumeragi, Authentic Japanese Cuisine in Setrasari

We found this place by coincidence when we are looking to grab something to eat for dinner in Setra Sari area. The place itself is designed very Japanese, with all of the ornaments and simplicity that you often found in a Japanese restaurant.

The place itself has their own bar, with several table in the first floor, but for us, we really enjoy having our meal in the second floor. The situation is somewhat more intimate and warm.

The menu that we really enjoyed here is their signature salad.

What? Salad in Japanese restaurant you asked?

Yup. Their salad is one of the main reason why we enjoy this restaurant. The vegetables are fresh, their portion is huugee... And most importantly, their dressing tasted delicious. we really recommended that if you come to this restaurant to give it a try. We also loves their Okonomiyaki (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Okonomiyaki).
All of the meals here are prepared fresh and usually comes in large portion. Really suitable for you guys who loves to eat large or eating out in large number.

Enjoy!

Baso Bintang Avon, Buah Batu, Bandung

Disclaimer: We love noodle!

With that in mind, we present you: Baso Bintang Avon. For us, we believe that this vendor can be considered as one of the best Yamien vendor in Bandung. The broth is not quite thick, as Akung, but it is certainly not as mild as Sam's.

So, if you are happened to be in the southern area of Bandung, and need a quick snack or lunch or dinner, then this is the place to go.

Enjoy!

DeHaPe Foodcourt, Dalem Kaum, Bandung

The Invitation

On April 2015, we were invited to the press conference for the opening of DeHaPe Foodcourt in Dalem Kaum area, Bandung. We were excited to attend this press conference, because as far as we know, there are only handful of restaurant/ foodcourt that are available in the area.

The Press Conference

During the press conference, there are various representatives from several blogs, and also from news and radios. The event went well and lively. Several main interest points that the vendor are promoting include beautiful view and scenery from the foodcourt, variation of unique menus in the area, and cooperation with several communities in Bandung area. In overall, their concept was splendid and unique, as most of the other foodcourt do not try to extend to reach communities in Bandung.

Hainanese Chicken Rice

As for their food, it was tasted good. We particularly loved their Hainanese Chicken Rice (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hainanese_chicken_rice) menu. And also the experience having lunch or dinner there was quite unique.

So, the last time you are visiting the Alun-Alun area, and you are hungry but have not yet decided to eat, then this foodcourt definitely should be on top of your list.

Enjoy!

Missing in Action!

It is been a while (too long?) since we post in this our beloved blog. Actually, there are several things that has happened while we are away. We have traveled to United Kingdom, Malaysia, and Singapore respectively, while also going to Central Java to visit Semarang and Jogjakarta.

On life, Aswin has (finally!) managed to survive his challenge and fulfills one of his many dreams of becoming a PhD in Science Management. After that, another good news that we are expecting tiny new member of our blogger (boy/ girl? Just wait and hear from us!). Oh! And our beloved contributors are now happily married, congratulations to Djukie and Ruben!

As plenty has happened over the past months (year?), and the "chaos" has set in order, we would like to continue to write in this blog again. Thankfully Ruben and Djukie has covered several posting over the months while we were away, so a big thanks to you guys!

So what are you having for lunch right now?

Enjoy!

Katjapiring: The Melting Pot of Flavors and Cultures

A common tradition in our family is having a dinner session together in a restaurant every Saturday/ Sunday night. This is the the opportunity for all family members to chat and have an intimate discussion, with added bonus for us is to try new venues around Bandung.

Today we tried the Katjapiring restaurant. It is not actually a new restaurant, as we have try them in PvJ somewhile ago. But since they reopened a new restaurant in Jalan Ciliwung, we have not have the chance to try them yet. Until now...

The restaurant is conveniently located in Jalan Ciliwung, just near the intersection with Jalan Bengawan. The design is colonial and good looking. Really interesting concept they have here.

We ordered several menu from the restaurant. Dad ordered the Mie Godog Jawan Suwiran, while the rest of us ordered foods that we shared together. Among the item, the most interesting food that we tried is their fried fish nyonya style. Very delicious and highly recommended if you ever attended the restaurant again. Yum!

At first we were not quite sure about the flavor, but after a few sip we grew to like it. Overall it tasted like Lemonade (believe it or not). We really loved it.

You can find their store in this address below.

Homemade Fried Rice For An Empty Stomach

Feeling a little bit like cooking today.

We decided to try and cooked a plate of fried rice. For cooking, we tried to use the regular fried rice trick from the street vendor with the eggs being mixed inside the rice.

We also scavenge our refrigerator, and (literally) throw everything that is left there into our fried rice concoction.

The end result: overall okay fried rice. Not too proud with the end result, but enough to fill our empty stomach :D.

Enjoy!

End Result. Not too proud with it, but it gets us through the day :D

Let's Get Nostalgic: Warung Lela

Warung Lela has always become our favorite noodle vendor in Bandung since our college time. But since the location is quite far from where we lived, we have not visited them as often as we liked.

So, when the opportunity appeared, we took our time to visit the restaurant. 

The food menu in overall are still the same. The noodle is still tasted great. And their pangsit goreng is as delicious as the last time we tried them.

In overall: it is (still) worth the trip. Enjoy!

Fried Rice Vendor at Sudirman Street, Bandung (Contributed Article by Ruben Juliarto)

This posting is contributed by Ruben Juliarto, our beloved friend and regular contributor for Jejak Rasa. Thank you and look forward to hear about your next article contribution bro!

Three hours bus ride to Bandung made us hungry. It was 10 pm so we decided to visit our usual chinese food hawker at Jl. Sudirman Bandung, which is near Marie Tunggal biscuit and gas/petrol station. The warung stands at left side for Cimahi direction.
We ordered fried rice and kwetiaw thick noodle. After sleeping with growling stomach at the bus ride, the fried rice was truly heavenly joy. 5 minutes later the plate was almost empty plate as you can see the report picture. Always remember our grandma wisdow, don't make any left over rice so we finished all of them with smile. While we were eating, we smell fine aroma of cooked food which made our stomach even fuller. The waiter also served us two glasses of tea, which tasted original Indonesian IMHO.
After it ended, it was costed 20k rupiahs. It will be less than $2 if we convert it to USD. Next time we will visit this nasi goreng warung again.
  

Empty Plate = Happy Customer!

Bangi Kopitiam Braga CityWalk, Bandung

We visit this place by accident, as we are "stranded" in Braga CityWalk, waiting to pickup our parents from the hospital. As the place has been heavily renovated, we find plenty of new vendors in the mall. One of them is this: Bangi Kopitam.

Located conveniently in front of the mall, Bangi Kopitiam boasting various snacks and foods from Malaysia. Their signature item in the menu? Toasted Bun with two different Kaya topping and their coffee. In overall their food tasted great, especially with the discount that they are serving right now :).

Hopefully the discount are still available when we visit them again soon.

Gado-Gado Batununggal

The first time we found this restaurant is by coincident. Aswin wanted to have a gado-gado, and currently I have to visit Batununggal to post a package. After circling around in the area, I finally found one shophouse that sells gado-gado.

The vendor sells gado-gado, rujak cuka, noodle, and variation of Chinese foods. The gado-gado that they are selling is quite delicious, with lighter peanut sauce compared with the other vendors that we used to have. With the price of Rp 18.000 (around US$ 1,5) with lontong, it is quite a bargain and enough to fuel you through the day.

Enjoy!

Batagor Vendor in front of ITB, Bandung

Batagor is one comfort food that we really liked. It has the crunchy texture you will find in similar comfort food such as Nacho, French Fries and Pop Corn, with the chewiness fillings of a Marshmallow. 

So, every time we are feeling down (usually after meeting my supervisor in my campus), we usually goes to and eat Batagor. With the average price of around Rp 10.000 (US$ 1) per portion, it is a snack that you cannot miss.

Enjoy!

Baso Tahu Tulen Situ Indah, Bandung

One of the alternative for Baso Tahu lover in Bandung. They are a tad bit expensive compared with the average Baso Tahu vendor around Bandung, but it is still recommended, especially for tourists who come to Bandung.
