Warung Bu Ageng — Restaurant in Yogyakarta

My favorite place to have lunch at Jogja. Never miss the chance to visit Warung Bu Ageng every time i visit Jogja. They serve a great taste of homemade food and great ambiance.

Food is beautifully presented and most people there were ordering the various nasi campur options. There are options with chicken, beef tongue, beef lung, lamb, etc or you can order separate dishes.

I got the kambing (lamb) nasi campur which came with various sides including a very interesting sweetened fried potato chip side as well as spicy eggplant, rice cracker etc. My one issue was the the lamb was very dry (no fatty) and chewy. I expected a more tender kambing like I had had with the satay kambing at a different restaurant. May want to consider getting...
