Stepping into Nasi Goreng Kecombrang (Bongkot) & Tahu Tek Riska in Denpasar, Bali, feels like a warm embrace from the past. This brunch restaurant is not just a place to eat; it’s a nostalgic journey back to childhood, reminiscent of home-cooked meals and cherished family vacations. The moment you take your first bite, you are transported to a world where flavors dance on your palate, and every dish tells a story.

The food and service here are nothing short of excellent. Each plate is a masterpiece, crafted with love and attention to detail. One dish that truly stands out is the seblak. I had never enjoyed seblak before because I wasn’t fond of the strong aroma of kencur. But here, it was a revelation! The kencur was perfectly balanced, not overpowering at all. It was the only seblak I could truly savor, and I found myself craving more. It’s a testament to the chef’s skill in creating a dish that appeals to even the most discerning of palates.

Moreover, the portions are generous, and the spices are abundant, making every bite a delightful experience. The Nasi Kecombrang is simply delicious, and the Tahu Gejrot has a broth that is incredibly flavorful, reminiscent of a Japanese soy sauce twist that adds a unique flair to the dish. It’s a culinary adventure that feels both familiar and exciting.

However, it’s important to note that the restaurant has faced some criticism regarding its service. Some patrons have expressed that it may not be suitable for everyone, but I believe that the heartwarming flavors and the authenticity of the dishes far outweigh any minor inconveniences.

In the end, Nasi Goreng Kecombrang & Tahu Tek Riska is more than just a restaurant; it’s a place that touches the heart. It reminds us of the simple joys of life, the comfort of home-cooked meals, and the beauty of sharing food with loved ones. This restaurant has not only satisfied my hunger but has also filled my heart with warmth and nostalgia. I left with a smile, knowing that I had discovered a little piece of home in the vibrant island of Bali.

So, let me take you on a little culinary adventure to a hidden gem in Bali called Nasi Goreng Kecombrang (Bongkot) & Tahu Tek Khas Suroboyo Riska. Now, before you get too excited, let me warn you: this place is located in a boarding house. Yes, you heard that right! Dining in a cozy little room where the walls might just be judging your food choices. But hey, who needs fancy decor when you have delicious food, right?

As I walked in, I was greeted by the aroma of fried rice that could make even a dietitian weep. Seriously, it smelled so good that I almost forgot my name. The menu? Oh boy, it’s like a love letter to my taste buds! I decided to go for their signature dish, Nasi Goreng Kecombrang. And let me tell you, it was like a party in my mouth, and everyone was invited! The rice was perfectly fried, with just the right amount of spice to make me feel like I was on a tropical island (which, coincidentally, I was).

Now, I also ordered the Telur Dadar, which is basically a fancy way of saying “egg omelet.” But this wasn’t just any omelet; it was like the superhero of omelets, saving my meal from being too dry and boring. It was fluffy, golden, and made me question all my previous breakfast choices. I mean, why have cereal when you can have this masterpiece?

And then came the Tahu Gejrot. If you’ve never had tofu that made you feel like you were dancing on clouds, then you haven’t lived! It was crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and drenched in a sauce that was so good I considered asking for a straw. I could hear my taste buds singing, “Hallelujah!”

Now, let’s talk about the ambiance. It’s a bit cramped, like a family reunion where everyone insists on sitting too close. But honestly, who cares? The food is so good that you’ll forget you’re practically sharing a table with a stranger who’s also trying to figure out how to eat without spilling rice on themselves. Plus, it’s super affordable! I mean, you can eat like a king for just Rp1-25,000. That’s cheaper than my last impulse buy at a convenience store!

And if you’re feeling lazy (or just really, really full), you can order via Gojek. One reviewer even said, “I’m going to be a regular!” And honestly, who wouldn’t? This place is like that friend who always brings snacks to the party—totally reliable and always a good time.

So, if you find yourself in Denpasar, don’t miss out on Nasi Goreng Kecombrang & Tahu Tek. Just remember to bring your appetite and maybe a friend to share the experience (or to help you finish all that food). Trust me, your taste buds will thank you, and you might just leave with a new best friend—food!
