| - Ok, I preface this with the fact that there was a LARGE indonesian community back home where I lived, and there was probably a significant portion of my life where I existed on Nasigoreng and lumpias.... Was this healthy, hell no. But I was 14 and had the metabolism of, well.... a 14 year old... Sigh.. those were the days..
So everytime I go to Bandung, I am a *tiny* bit saddened that they don't "do it like they did back home" (he he he... that sounds.. ahem!). Which is why I've started having cocktails before. Their Long Island Iced Thai Tea is a dream. It's EXACTLY what a LIIT should be, a poor excuse for trying to get as much alcohol as possible in one container. Add the creamy goodness of a Thai tea, and WOW... you've got a sweet and exotic drink that will satisfy the masses. The lumpias are so crisp and delicious.
The nasigoreng...well... I've had better, but they do make a good job at it, I WILL say. I think it's got to be something with the tofu. I *thought* they don't season the tofu, and thus when you eat the nasigoreng, the rice and veggies are really good, but maybe if you leave the rice for the next day, the taste will seep in the tofu. Well.. Thanks to their GENEROUSLY sized portions, this is exactly what I did. I tasted the nasi the next day... PERFECTION. Too bad I can't exactly recommend to them to give me last night's nasigoreng.... hehe.
Fried banana dessert (hey, I'm ALL about desserts), is a dream.....
