Bengawan Solo (Junction 8)

Day 15: On day 13, we posted steamed Kueh Lapis with colorful layers. The original one looks somber with substance and slightly more expensive than the steamed one. Do we prefer it? ‘No’. Do we need to pay more? ‘Yes’
‘Welcome to the Layer Cake son!’😆

Day 14: “Been in plenty of sticky situations in life, we still want all in it!” 😜 Sticky Sagu with middle layer implies gula Melaka. We try to be precise in term of outlet location for the Kueh we get from Bengawan Solo as it seems not all outlets store the same type of Kuehs. Junction 8 is one of our favorite stall where you can get your hand on this yummy treat. 🤘

Day 10: Mark the half-way towards our Kueh challenge with this Kueh Salat. Not in the perfect square shape but taste very balanced. 🤩 The glutinous rice portion matches very well with silky kaya layer.🤟

Day 9: Steamed tapioca makes its way to the front row by wearing the brightest shade of sugar (orange!). It is much brighter than ‘Getuk getuk’ its sibling. We think that it also tastes lovelier and better suited to our sweet palette.

We will need to take a little break for the Kueh challenge after day 10 as we embark on our trip.

Day 8: We love as much Ongol ubi as Kueh kosui. Steamed tapioca with nice fluffy grated coconut coating. 🌟

This was better than I expected. Very very crispy thou the rolls were a bit small. Still, the heh bi flavor was good and they were spicier than I remembered.
