Trip to Bogor – Culinary Part 1

Hollaaa..actually it’s just one day trip though :D. On Friday, 02 September 2011 we went to Bogor for culinary coz I heard it’s a good place to do culinary, it wasn’t my first time to Bogor but that was my first time to Bogor to do culinary & sightseeing. After browsing, asking people about good place for food etc. here we go..my one day yummy trip to Bogor :D there were 3 of us..me, Ulfa & Monic who also on CS. Me & Ulpe took train from Lenteng Agung Station around 9am with Economy Train (IDR 2.000) to Bogor for about 45 minutes. From there we’re planning to go to our 1^st destination, Jl.

1. Soto Kuning Bogor Pak M. Yusuf 

Jl. Suryakencana, HP. 08129051210

We decided to try this because it looks crowded & name for this stall has similar with the one that I read on somewhere blog which recommended but actually it’s different. In here you can choose your own meat for @IDR 6.000, rice IDR 2.000 but I like that soto beside Soto Betawi.

     2. Talase

Same place with the man who sell Dodongkal, this is stewed taro with sowing scraped coconut & brown sugar IDR 3.000.

3. Bakso Malang Putera Arema 

Jl. Suryakencana No. 295 (Gg. Aut) Bogor

We ordered Bakso Bakar IDR 10.000, meatballs but it looks like Sate with peanut sauce also, sooo delicious..^^b

5. Es Pala Mangga Sirsak Aming 

If you like Asinan or something fresh from spicy-sweet-fruit you should try this..I tried mango IDR 4.500, next time I will try nutmeg-pala  & soursop-sirsak :)

6. Mie Sehat Resto

There are 3 types & color of noodles here : Green, Orange & Purple Noodles. Green from Japanese vegetables, orange from carrot & purple from beet. We tried orange one IDR 17.500, feel lil bit different with noodles that I usually eat (read : chicken noodles-mie ayam) more elastic & of course delicious & healthier also.

8. Dodongkal Keju

    After 1,5 hours waiting to buy & eat this Dodongkal due to food hasn’t ready yet, finally we made it.

But we bought IDR 3.000 coz we almost full & small portion doesn’t look small for us :D

We spent few minutes at that Café before continuing our destinations, at beginning we just want to go to that café then out but because there was a thing to find nearest exit gate which actually closed that made us have to go around & around to find the exit gate so we spent like almost an hour to get out from garden ^^;; even when we felt already reach the main gate after walk around & around esp when we asked a woman where the exit is she said “that way” we felt excited to go on her direction but suddenly we find out so funny coz actually we went to Café Dedaunan way again..aigoooo >__<
