Decent Bakso — nothing more, nothing less

Bakso at this place was fine. The deeply spiced with galangal and lemongrass flavour was there but not distinguished. terasi shrimp paste was present in the right quantities but without the care that makes the difference. You can taste when something is being made to a formula.

rendang from West Sumatra is consistently voted one of the world's most delicious dishes. The a family feast table setting was generic rather than immersive. Bintang beer was offered but not explained. If you're in the area and want Bakso it'll do. If you're going out of your way, look elsewhere.
