Bubur Ayam Kanineung

Bubur Ayam Kanineung


Looking for some light late night supper? Here's another choice for you. If you ever come to Bandung and feel hungry during your sleep hours, this chicken porridge is going to satisfied you palates.

The owner of this stall is going to start selling at around 12 am almost every night. So if you're unlucky don't give up just go for it the very next day. Don't underestimate or judged the taste of this midnight supper when you arrived at the location. Because it was located right at the roadside. You are going to doubt it for a while, to tell you the truth, I, myself, doubt it at first.

The porridge is easy to swallow and not oily. It is tasty but easy on the tongue. I wish I can show you with pictures, but it was too dark to take a picture of it with my blackberry. But here's another promise, i'm going to spoil my palates with this tasty midnight supper in the near future, and i'm going to upload it ASAP. So bear with me. :)

And, here's the specialty of this Midnight Porridge Stall, the chicken wings, or what we locals would like to call "jangjang" which I can't be sure whether is it Sundanese or Javanese, but it doesn't matter because the chicken wings is just as delicious no matter what language we use to call them. Don't even get me started on the taste of these chicken wings when you added the chilly or "sambal". You will never get enough of it! Well, and when you know the price, it's going to make you speechless. For a serving of porridge, it's gonna cost you Rp. 7.000,00 and the chicken wings is gonna cost you Rp. 4.000,00/ piece. Well, i'm gonna confirmed it next time, and make sure that the price that I stated here is the correct one.

I was going to added the info now, but, silly me, I forgot to ask their business card, so I'm going to add it in the future after my next visit, and some pictures and some comment too. But here's a few tips before you go to the stall:

  • Eat your dinner. Because if you wait for it until midnight you might get gastric pain or you can caught a cold. (It's hard for me to say this, because I know some of you who tasted it before would like another serving after the first one, but it's better for you to have your dinner, otherwise there's no use if you can't enjoy this delicacy because of your gastric pain.)
  • It's better if you come earlier than 12 am or before the stall have come to the usual location. Because the stalls get crowder by the hours. If you came after 3 am, there might not be any porridge left for you to enjoy.
  • Wear your sweater, because it's selling hour which started around midnight is the hours where Bandung get colder by each passing minutes. You don't want to catch a cold.
  • For those chilly lovers, here's a tip for you guys. The Chilly is to die for! I know, i know some of you might be wondering what it would taste like, eating chicken porridge with a spoon or two of chilly added to it. But, Trust me, the chilly is going to pampered your tongue. But be careful, as it is very hot.

So overall, I'm gonna give this stall a rate of 4,5/ out of 5 stars. Hope you enjoy it!


NB: I'm going to edit this post once I get all the details of location, price, and some picture are gonna be added, and some customer comment too. and Don't worry it's gonna be soon!

Day's & Smoothie

Day's & Smoothie


So, this is my first review of cool shops in my hometown Bandung. The shops called Day's & Smoothie. There's several store in Bandung alone. The one that I'm reviewing right now is the one in Trunojoyo Street number 23.

Okay first of all, this store is way cute! Like "girly" cute. And it was so neat and homey. It was not really eye catchy at first, and you might just walk past it. But, hey, it totally catches mine, and here I am writing a personal review about it.

Things that are sell by this store is mainly accessory. Bracelet, necklace, scarf, ring, bags, hats, pins, and all type of accessory. Just name it, and it'll be there. It was a heaven for all the accessory lover out there. Okay maybe I was a bit exaggerating, but this store definitely sell wide range of accessory, considering the small space it got. They've got a silver, and gold kind of accessory, and many others unique and cute accessory.

And, when you look at the price, it's totally gonna surprise you. Well, it surprise me. It was really affordable, way more affordable than the usual store we see in malls. So I am going to post a few picture of the bracelet that I bought the other day.

This Bracelet was priced Rp 60.000,00.

Another one that has a price of Rp 60.000,00

Overall I gave this store the rating **** out of 5 stars. So here's my first personal review. Enjoy reading, and tell me what you think...
