If you’re visiting Bandung, but would rather be based outside the city then make the Mason Pine Hotel your choice. I stayed here a couple of weeks ago and the hotel which is nestled in scenic...

There are just PLENTY of side-street hawkers that sell these snacks in Bandung, especially on Dago Street, Setiabudi Street, Dipati Ukur Street, and Lembang. These roasted delights are the other trademark of Bandung, and the younger crowd of tourists normally hit the hawkers in the evenings. One...

Devil’s chips are devilish. Not only do they send you panting, but I can assure that you will also get addicted. The chips are made from cassava, and sprinkled with a generous amount of chili and herbs powder—which make the taste very hot and uniquely distinctive. Lots of people in Bandung...

Durian is a kind of tropical fruit that has a distinctive taste and odor, which make it becomes an either-you-love-it-or-hate-it fruit. It’s almost the size of a football, spiky on the outside, and the fruit meat is somewhat thick and creamy.
Durian Ice Cream is very popular in...

Although Cireng is a traditional snack that has been around for a while, lately there are several stalls that are making alternatives. Back on those days, the snack is made from just a mixture of glutinous rice with herbs and chicken stock, deep fried in a pan. Nowadays, this snack is more...

This cake has actually been around for quite long, but I swear that three years ago, steamed chocolate brownies was suddenly a big hit in Bandung—almost like an epidemic. Everybody, every single household, and every tourist I met was on the hunt for this cake.
If you think...

Fried fish and tofu cakes are also the signature snack of Bandung. Most tourists come to Bandung just to have a bite of this snack; people from Jakarta would even drive for 2hours just to buy it in Bandung.
There are a massive number of stalls that sell the Batagor, especially on...

Pisang Bolen is actually not a traditional snack, but it’s more like a pastry type of cake shaped like an oval ball with a chunk of banana and cheese inside. It’s very delicious, with a smooth texture and rich taste, especially if you have it while still warm—watch out, you might get...

As I wrote on my previous blog, most domestic tourists go to Bandung for two reasons: one, to shop, and two, to dine. In fact, Bandung is recently known as a local food-hub, as tourists from Jakarta (the capital of Indonesia) or near-by cities would just drop by en-masse to have a culinary trip...

AnaKecil (abbreviated from anak and kecil) means “little ones” or “children” in Indonesia, so as obvious as the name says, this Factory Outlet only sells children’s fashion. Located in Cimandiri Street, his F.O is actually quite small-sized comparing to the other F.Os in Bandung.

This Factory Outlet is the biggest in Bandung, as it looks more like a small shopping mall than a big factory outlet. The building itself is designed in a modern-minimalist style, with huge glass windows and stream-lined walls, which I think makes it look like a hotel.
Located in...

Well, I might be lying if I said that I don’t go here for clothes shopping, but there are times that I brought guests that are not interested in buying clothes here. The Heritage, despite being one of the most famous Factory Outlets in Bandung, is actually one of the most significant historical...

Rumah Mode in Setiabudi Street is my most favorite Factory Outlet in Bandung. Not only that it has the latest trend and one-of-a-kind collection, but it also has everything for almost everybody.
It’s sometimes funny that my favorite part of this F.O is not the shopping...
