Place Design


Roti Bakar Kemang is more popular and is visited by many customers at night. So, the atmosphere in the Roti Bakar Kemang looks dim, less light, like when you are outdoors area without lamp.

The building in Roti Bakar Kemang consists of two floors with a minimalist design. The walls of the room show brick texture.
I chose to sit on the first floor which was a little more quiet than the second floor which was very noisy because it was crowded.

Some decorations are displayed on the wall so the room seems not monotonous, which in fact does not affect anything.
Because I came alone to this place, I felt uncomfortable and could not linger on** Roti Bakar Kemang** with a lack of light. However, for those who come with friends, certainly Roti Bakar Kemang will be a pleasant hangout place.
My Experience

The service at Roti Bakar Kemang is quite good, with food my order comes not too long with busy customers. I chose Roti Bakar Keju (toast served with cheese and ice cream) and Es Kopi Gula Aren (Iced Coffee With Palm Sugar).


Roti Bakar Keju is served with ice cream as a topping. The ice cream I choose has vanilla flavor. The texture of the toast is right, with lots of cheese filling.


Melting ice cream eaten with toast becomes a pleasant sensation in the mouth.
The taste of the toast served by Roti Bakar Kemang is reasonably good and it deserves to be popular.

Roti Bakar is a snack that is always chosen at night, filling, but not too heavy as when eating the main course menu. Savory and sweet is the perfect blend of flavors to make you not get bored quickly when eating a bread-based menu.

For drinks, of course it feels like it can be a favorite in the hearts of customers. Es Kopi Gula Aren is ice coffee served with palm sugar. Look at the palm sugar that settles at the bottom.

Don't forget to stir the palm sugar at the bottom of the glass so the sweetness is evenly distributed.
Even though it uses palm sugar, the "Es Kopi Gula Aren" menu still has a characteristic bitter taste of coffee. This Es Kopi Sugar Palm is a Signature's Drink at Roti Bakar Kemang.
