PUNCLUT, BANDUNG - FEEL THE SENSATION FOR TASTING SUNDANESE FOOD IN A HILL (AVERAGE to EXPENSIVE PRICE)



Me again... I’ll do review again for the restaurant that I’ve visited last Friday (06/06/2014).

As we (me and classmates) did before, this journey held without planning, just wanna fill our empty stomach when it comes to lunch after took 60 mins essay exam.

After exam finished we did nothing except waiting in classroom for another plan. First we were planning to discuss our research but in the end we didn’t do it. When we were about to going to our own home, it’s interupted because we want to take a lunch together. Time goes fly, then we’ve another sudden planning.
“Let’s eat in the new place to search for new sensation.”  That’s the idea,  and Punclut becomes our destination.

Punclut is the place in Ciumbuleuit district, Bandung. The topography is the higher land than mostly places in Bandung (it’s a hill). This place nearby to Dago, and we headed to there with riding  motorbike, no one of the passangers who wear helmet, so like we did before we avoid main street and line on the little street.
The route is difficult enough, there’s a up-down-up street, not flat enough. I realized there’s no commute to there, we just have to use our own vehicle, ofcourse it must be in a good condition for adapting the bad road.

Finally after a while, we arrive in there, my friend (the chairman, Wimal, remember?) suggest us to ride down in front of “Warung Teh Ita 2” that’s the name of traditional restaurant that Wimal thought the Food is well enough. Ow okay we agreed.

The interior of the restaurant not really different from the other shop beside, it’s standar when the Restaurant’s concept moslty used traditional Sundanese concept, wall from woven bamboo, no chair (lesehan) and have 2 floors, so we are  choosed in 2nd floor where we can see the whole view down there. I think when the night comes, I bet it will be a pretty scenery for Bandung Night’s View.


Lesehan means no chair

OK I'm a bad photographer with bad camera, trust me the real is more beautiful

You can see Bandung's view here, unfortunately I couldn't catch it

Ah yes before we’re sitting in the 2nd floor we choosed the menu first. There’re lot of menus such as chicken, fish, tofu, tempeh, squid etc. We can choose one among of them then we said to the waitress if we want to make our dish grilled or fried. We can choose type of the rice too, the white rice or red rice. And we also can order different type of drink including coconut water with its coconut. Our team choosed our own menu and we prefer the red rice one. Then... We’re sitting in our place on the 2nd floor for waiting until the meals come.

This is the menu that come, I loved the menu and that sambal is sooo spicy!! OK, I couldn’t handle the spicy but I can ignore this sambal either, Sundanese food without sambal isn’t perfect. Um.. Sundanese people eat their meal with hand, but don’t worry you can ask for spoon if you need it.

In the middle of eating time, there’s a livemusic around us, traditional Sundanese music that performed by a man and his Kecapi (name for Sundanese traditional instrument). We can give that man money for his songs and we can request the song too.

Ahh.. You know and I’d just know too if my friend’s appetite were big, including me. It’s because we put on another refill of rice in our plate after the first one is ‘gone’ LOL. But don’t you have to worry because the rice served in a big bowl from woven bamboo (we called it bakul). So you can put on the refill whenever you want.

OK that’s the eating time and now the paying time, you know, we were shocked because for the simply menus that we ordered it can say if the price is expensive, (um... average to expensive). For 6 of us we spent IDR.170.000,- it means almost IDR 30.000,- per person.

Bill and payment fee, expensive ="=


Then Ugun said “we are buying place and view in here, no wonder it’s getting expensive, so after eating don’t go home first, let’s enjoyed this time.” Ay ay Captain! We agreed and spent our time to take photos and do chit chat a while.. OK not only a while maybe for hours because we’re head down to our home around 4.PM LOL.

Whatever. Because it’s fun!! OK. Next time we will explore another places!! If you wanna try my adventure, just going there Kay? Bye, see yaa~

Intermezzo :
When we go home, Wimal forgot to take his belonging so we (I and him, because I’m the passanger) went back again to take it (actually it’s just a chips, precious chips for Wimal’s sister), fortunately the employees keep that and handed to us. So kind. Thank You Teh Ita 2.

PS with love :
Warning !!! Please notice, English wasn’t my first language! I’m Indonesian, but idk, somehow I just comfort to write in English eventhough it was this messy, just like this post. OK there.. see yaa :)
