BANDUNG FOOD GUIDE

I love food. If you've scrolled through my Instagram, you may have even seen my new hashtag: #heyrockEATgirl. So witty, noh? Hahaha Seriously though, food is always one of the things I look forward to when traveling (or even in life in general, ssh!). Aside from authentic local dishes, a culture's take on other cuisines is also worth a bite.

As such, for this post, I'll be sharing with you the food and eateries we've tried during our trip to Bandung aka: 5 more reasons to go. Hope you enjoy!

1. Miss Bee Providore

Jalan Rancabentang No. 11A, Ciumbuleuit - Bandung, Jawa Barat 40142, Indonesia

For our first dinner in the city, we went to this cafe near our hotel. It has a chic, quirky, cozy vibe similar to that of Cafe Mary Grace. Being the creatures of habit that we are, we went for the steak and the burger. We were seated by the cake case so I was scouting our dessert the whole time.

2. Sushi Groove

 Jl. Sukajadi No. 137-139 Cipedes Sukajadi Bandung Jawa Barat, Indonesia

Didn't I tell you we were creatures of habit? Hehe! Of course we had to have japanese food. We tried out this modern looking eatery in the perimeter of Paris Van Java where I had the yummiest chicken cutlet ever. The sushi was also not bad. :)

3. Floating Market

Jl. Grand Hotel No. 33 E, Lembang, Bandung Barat, Jawa Barat, Indonesia

To satisfy your craving for local munchies, the Floating Market may be the place for you. Not only does it serve snacks like potato twists, buns, and satay (!!!), they do so in a real charming park too. And as the name suggests (and the photos in case it's not clear enough, hehe), the stalls are all in boats docked by the market.  

4. Pizza é Birra

Jl. Sukajadi No. 137-139, Jawa Barat, Indonesia

Pizza é Birra is probably one of the prettiest restaurants I've been to. Just look at the interiors! Loove the industrial space and the pop art! :The chili con carne fries was a bit of a let down, refer to the photo above. But maybe next time, we should really go for pizza and beer instead of pasta and wings. ;)

5. Banana-leaf rice meal

*Ask your driver to bring you to one ;)

A trip to Indonesia won't be complete without eating rice wrapped in banana leaf. Surprisingly, this was a bit of a tough to find. Luckily though, after a failed attempt at outlet shopping, we asked our driver to take us to eat instead. He brought us to this little shack next to an outlet where we had rice (!) and barbecued chicken wings. Yum! Although I wish there was more chicken coz the rice was sooo good.

So, that's it. 5 more reasons why you should go visit Bandung. ;)
