I originally visited Waroeng Windsor when they were at their previous location which I believed was Aldershot, and I left disappointed because half of the menu items weren’t available.
I made the decision to give the restaurant another chance and I’m glad I did because the food was extremely tasty and the ayem boku or woku dish was juicy and tender. The ayem sate was almost authentic but the chicken isn’t the same as the village chicken in Indonesia for obvious reasons and hence doesn’t have that specific taste but it was really nice. You do have to ask for spicy sambal because ‘Bule’ taste buds can’t typically handle spicy, so they naturally reduce the spicy level but they where happy to throw some together for me.
The meal certainly doesn’t have the same price tag as Indonesia lol! I had a similar meal in manado and it cost me like 120,000idr≈£3 but it cost £65 here!! I did have two es cendol though and again not quite as tasty but as close as you can get to authentic one but obviously taking into account ingredients cost a lot more due to import costs, so the price makes sense to me and the Jack fruit isn’t as tasty as when it’s fresh.
I still loved it :)
Would definitely visit again if I was in the area but I did on this occasion drive one hour and thirty minutes and the fuel adds up lol.
If I had anything negative to say, it would be, bigger portions please :) lol
I ordered the tempeh mendoan and the prawn balado and it was delicious. The tempeh just hit the spot perfectly as the batter was so crispy and the sauce that came with it was the perfect mix of sweet and spicy. I highly recommend the tempeh mendoan to anyone looking for something greasy and deep fried to hit the spot. The prawn balado was equally good. I can't describe the flavour in any other way other than tasty. There's nothing else quite like it.
The service was immaculate as well. The people who work there have always been very kind so when you go, you will always be greeted warmly. We were able to eat outside as well, which was very enjoyable. This is a nice and cosy little establishment, and the food here is top notch. I would therefore highly recommend visiting this restaurant. You will not be disappointed, especially at this price point. I paid £19 in total when i went left feeling very full as the portion sizes are very generous.
Besides the delicious food(!), it were the amazing people that made us go here two days in a row.
When I mentioned that I am crazy about Gado Gado and Tempeh, they made me a customised dish that was better than any Gado Gado I ever had before (and boy, I have had many 😇)
I highly recommend going here, and I am sure that they will be happy to have you :).
