Recently I’ve really been missing Bandung. Last time I was there was 2005 so it’s been far too long. I miss the sights, the sounds and the smells. But what I really miss is the food. One of my favorite snacks is martabak, a sweet pancake like food with different toppings. My favorite is the martabak special with keju (cheese), pisang (banana), corn and drizzled with sweet condensed milk. This photo is of the place in Bandung my family and I always went when we got the craving for martabak (which was quite often). I’m not really sure of the location so if you live in Bandung and this place looks familiar drop me a line and let me know where it is so I can add update this post.
**UPDATE** Terima kasih to Eric Setiawan for letting me know that this martabak location is on Jalan Jenderal Sudirman in Pasar Andir area, near Gang Luna.
Do you remember any more details or clue about this place?
Halo Eric. I think it is on or near Jalan Andir. Does that sound familiar?
Matt – yes, it sounds familiar because it’s not far from where I live. A friend says that this is in Jalan Jenderal Sudirman, in Pasar Andir area, near Gang Luna. Perhaps I should try the martabak some day
Terima kasih Eric. You should try the martabak there. I’m not saying it’s the best in Bandung but it’s the one place my family and I really enjoy.
There are so many good martabak places in Bandung, and this is one of them. There is one place in jakarta, close to my house that makes killer martabak manis. next time when we are both in town, let’s meet up and arrange an all out martabak binge…whaddaya say?
Let’s do it my friend! It will be a day of martabak madness. We’ll get T-shirts made to mark the occasion. “I survived martabak madness”.
I know some good places that sell martabak manis like this, but from the way you describe it, I think I should give this one a try. Very nice, Matt.
Thanks Eki. If you give it a try let me know what you think.
This is actually the first time I’ve heard about corn being used in martabak manis. I’m also a real fan of martabak, but I always buy the same one wherever I go : pakai keju.
