Berliner Brotfabrik — Restaurant in Tasikmalaya

I have been lucky enough that someone showed me this place. As an Indonesian native that has lived for a long time in Germany, I have to say, this place is a cafe with the most authentic German taste I have ever found in Tasikmalaya. The products, the atmosphere, the owner and the assistants are a great example of how two different cultures can be harmonized and completed each other.

The assistants have been trained in Germany, so the products can be guaranteed with German mixed with local taste, thus the local buyers won't feel strange about the breads and the pastry, yet the Europeans, especially the Germans still enjoy it a lot. The owners have built the cafe with all components needed to bring the buyer closer to the German atmosphere. The products have plenty of variations and the owners keep updating the menu with new products.

Overall I am satisfied with the products and especially enjoy spending my time in this cafe and having some convo with the owner. I recommend this place strongly to be visited at least once and try...

And thanks to Google Map, finally, I've found that Berliner Brotfabrik is still exis. The new location isn't in the main street, but in the residential area (houses complex).

Berliner Brotfabrik is a bakery-cafe with the authentic German taste. Not only offering German cakes and pastries, Berliner Botfabrik is built with Germany interior and house-building style, so customers can feel German atmosphere.

"Tolles essen..." and it's a nice place to hang out in the...

My recent visit to this place was a letdown from start to finish. The menu options were severely limited, with many items unavailable. Even worse, when my meal did arrive, the portion size was laughably small, leaving me wondering if I had accidentally ordered from the kids' menu. To add insult to injury, when I tried to order a simple spring water, they didn't even have that available. It's like they're actively trying to disappoint their customers. it's safe to say I won't be returning...
