Although very well acquainted with the cuisine of this nation’s near neighbours, my knowledge and experience of Indonesian fare itself was woefully lacking. In a bid to right this egregious oversight, I ploughed headfirst into all that I could find on this establishments enticing looking menu. What I discovered was a slew of dishes that more than held their own against those of its geographical contemporaries.
Read moreWith so many new, barely pronounceable (to my uneducated mind, at least) items to try, I was at a loss as where to begin, so a random rummage in the bag decided my fate - fortuitously, I started with bang in the form of the cilok bandung. These tapioca balls skirted with being too gelatinous, but thankfully they had enough bite to keep them very much to my liking and the peanut sauce they were doused in was sublime.
Another random pull from my cache saw the cireng isi dengan sambel rujak appear next. Here I hit the only minor stumbling block of the meal due to that fact these, unlike the last offering, did stray a touch too far into the realm of gumminess though they were far from inedible.
Continuing the theme of potluck dining, the next two picks, the singkong goreng (deep-fried cassava) and the tempe goreng, both corrected the course of the feast significantly as both were superb. Likewise, the terong balado padang also impressed as it brought a touch levity to proceedings.
Now deep within the nether-reaches of my stash, I hit upon the two main elements, the nasi goreng kampoeng and the nasi campur. Of the two, the former, with its umami richness was a slight preference, but that’s not to detract from the quality of the latter in any way.
Finally, having exhausted all that there was to found on the savoury side, I had reached my sole sweet component: the bubar sumsum. Unlike nearly any other dessert I’ve ever had in terms of texture, I could easily see how I would not be a fan, but there was something about the slipperiness of it combined with the caramel-esq syrup and the creamy coconut sauce that made it divine.
On this evidence, I have clearly done myself a disservice by ignoring this type of food for so long. Now feeling entirely more informed - and in equal measures, impressed - I see no reason why I won’t be back here for more of the same.
