Kalau suka makanan Sunda, aku punya tempat yang oke bangeeet untuk menikmati makanan Sunda yang enak. Untuk aku yang foodie (baca; DOYAN MAKAN #danfotomakanannnya), bahagia banget bisa ketemua restoran yang oke, tempatnya keren, dekat rumah, harga friendly dan menyenangkan. Di sinilah tempat yang paling oke untuk menikmati hidangan khas tanah Pasundan! Apalagi restonya yang bernuansa vintage pasti bkin kamu nggak tahan untuk ngga berfoto ria. Instagramable bangeeet soalnya.

So, let me take you to SAMBEL HEJO SAMBEL DADAK RESTAURANT!

Karena restorannya ada beberapa, kali ini aku ajak yang paling dekat dengan rumahku di Rawamangun ya.

Sundanese delicacies and menu are their signature so you make sure you try their wonderful menu.

If you are familiar with Sundanese food, you can definitely enjoy ayam goreng basah, fresh veggies or lalapan, sambal dadak (chili sauce a la Indonesia that is freshly made) and sambal hejo or the green chili sauce, sayur asem, peda, tempe and tahu. 

I know I should translate them all ini English but it's good to know the real name in bahasa Indonesia :).

Whenever we come here, we always order the package for two and get some additional a la carte menu such as sayur asem or gurame bakar.

We love the nasi liwet and the hot tea they serve for free here.

Maybe because it is served in a vintage tea jug like what my hubby and I used to have when we were kids.

Here are some of the menus that we love!

First, as appetizers, we have otak - otak or grilled fish cake.

Then my kids' favorite is cimplung or the Sundanese potato fritters.

It's a bit different from the usual perkedel kentang and we love it.

And of course, I love the sambal as well as the signature fried chicken here, ayam goreng basah.

They both are match made in heaven indeed!

What I really love about the Sundanese food is that it has a lo of fresh veggies. It matches the sambal or the fresh chili sauce that they are preparing on the spot based on request. It tastes like heaven (for me)!

The restaurant as I said is pretty.

You can sit inside, on the second floor, or even on the terrace. 

They do have tons of vintage items, some are even from my parents' childhood.

And that's exactly what I love about this place

They have a mini studio in the back where you can take picture using the vintage costumes and all the properties. It's really cute indeed. you will definitely love this place! 

My family and I didn't want to mis the opportunity to take all those cute photos, for FREE!

And here are some of the photos taken on our last visit there.

Tell me what you think about!

The service is good as well. 

Fast and friendly staff. The price is very reasonable for a lovely place like this!

Come check out my video about this lovely place on YouTube.

I keep coming back to this place with my family and friends. If you are  around, don't miss this place! Kabari yaaa kalau mampir ke sini! oh ya.. Ini tempat dan alamat lengkapnya ya.

Cheers and have a great day!

See you on the next culinary experience ya.
