With many response I saw in this reviews I'm trying to be objectives from every perspective. I tried Bakso Rusuk (25K, it's the expensive one) the meatballs taste good I like the texture chewy and not to soft but the little problem is the ribs it's a little to hard to chew and to swallow probably they didn't boil them for long time it's sure fall from the bone but the meat didn't taste like I'm expected. One portion of Bakso Rusuk isn't include meatball tofu it separate and cost 2K each. I ordered dawet ice(3K) and Campur ice(5K) the dawet ice didn't taste bad but surely not good as the one in the street the sugar didn't taste that great in my tongue for the campur ice I didn't recommended if you looking for the avocado, or seaweed there's none because the filling contain dawet, jelly and i forgot the other one.

Oh yeah one more thing, There's no tax. So that's also a...
Read moreThis is a large and very popular outlet of the Bakso Idolaku food chain at Jl. Taman Siswa in Wirogunan, Mergangsan District, Yogyakarta City.

The place is divided into a front section with high chairs and a much more popular back section with lesehan (sitting on floor carpets) style in a large Javanese joglo building. Both sections are separated by a narrow lane accessible by cars. Clean toilets and musholla (moslem prayer room). Minus: the tea is...
Read moreThis is just another "warung bakso" in Yogyakarta, serving a nice bowl of bakso or mie ayam (chicken noodle). For me, the taste of mie ayam is pretty much standard. The noodle is bland and the chicken topping is salty and has strong flavor compared to the noodle. It feels like you got the taste from the chicken instead of the noodle flavoring. And, I don't know whether it's just me or everybody also experienced it, but the noodle is a bit soggy. I made a not for my self, for my next visit, I will just order their bakso. Not the best bakso in Yogyakarta, but still better compared to the small stalls. Its size is very small, tho. It feels pricey for me, even though we have several bakso restaurants that has more expensive...
