Bakoel Koffie at Cikini Menteng Jakarta

April 20th, 2017. A simple review about Bakoel Koffie. Why simple? Since they didn't allow me to take photos with my camera, I did some photos with my iphone. Pardon my photos, please.

I read somewhere that they named it Bakoel Koffie to tribute a lady who sold coffee beans in a bakoel (basket). That's why their logo is a lady bring a bakoel. When they opened the coffee shop in 1878, they named it: Tek Sun Ho: Eerste Weltevredensche Koffiebranderij (First Coffee Roasting Company). Then they changed it to Bakoel Koffie. It's a spacious coffee shop, the first floor for smoking area, the second floor for non smoking area. When I came, it's so crowded, I couldn't explore the floor. Maybe next time..

Hot Tea 25k

Pisang Goreng 35k

Traditional Battered Crispy fried bananas

Love the fried banana. Sweet flavour with fluffy texture. It's also funny, since it's shaped like a foot hahaha.. Yup, it looked like a foot to me. LOL. Recommended!

Spaghetti Chicken Katsu 65k

Spaghetti Aglio Olio served with Chicken Katsu, Grana Padano and mushroom

It's Cindy's order, I didn't try this one.

I will be back soon. I wanted to try their coffee for sure. Wait for me!
