Mibabi Isi 2 - Goreng Spesial

-
Last week, I just found this amazing post by my Facebook friend. It is called Mibabi Isi 2 Goreng Spesial, a local product of instant noodles that came from Bali with a pig picture on its package. Based on Google, the product had been released since 2016 in Bali Province. It is classified as a non halal product, so if you are a Moslem, do not ever try to eat this. The product has been exported in cities around Indonesia, and one of it is Bandung.

Coincidentally, my Facebook friend lives in Bandung, and she told me that the product is sold at a supermarket there. Moreover, it costs IDR 10k each–which is affordable for a non halal product, and for a college student like me. I was in hype, and asked my classmate who also lives in Bandung to buy this product, so that I can try it and give it a review for my dearest pork lover readers.

First, I am going to show you the box’s packaging.

The Package - apparently my classmate gave me two packages www (Picture:Canon EOS 1000D)

There are two colours, red (fried noodles) and green (soup-based noodles). The product is made with fresh ingredients–without chemical preservatives. This time, I am going to review the red box. But, before I start reviewing, here is the final result–after cooking.

To note, the way for cooking this noodles is a little bit different than when you cook Indomie or Mie Sedaap.

Since the box is small, I thought that the portion will not be enough for me like Indomie or Mie Sedaap. Yet, it is beyond my expectation–the portion is enough for me. And after the noodles cooked, the noodles come with a chewy texture like mi karet (rubber noodles).

As for the spices, there are secret ingredient spices, lard, soy sauce, and chili powder. After the noodles mix with the spices, the smell will make you mouth-watering. The taste is as delicious a bowl of chicken noodles from a stall that is run by a Chinese seller. Gladly, the lard is not as much as I thought, and does not make me vomit. But, the chili powder has a strong flavour, so I cannot taste the noodles pretty well.

In the end, I recommend this product for you who loves pork a lot. Though it is spicy, but it will make you happy. And believe me, it will leave a strong aftertaste after eating this.

ps.: big shout-out for my Facebook friend, SLR, who first posted this pork noodles’ existence.
pss.: I cannot tell the exact place in Bandung where to find this product, since there will be a person who will sue for dismiss the export :(

l-r: Crunchy Salmon Mayo; Fish Katsu D - Picture: ZenFone 3 Max (feat. VSCO) First, I was craving for potatoes. But, after seeing the visual display of a few dish in this restaurant located in Cihampelas Walk, Bandung named Torico, I decided to try the dish there—and not to mention, my craveness for potatoes had changed into Japanese dish. #waitho For the menu, I only ordered two dish and each of them will be discussed below—from my point of view. Fish Katsu D (Steam Rice, Dori Fish, Mini Salad, & Lemon Tea) IDR 23K This dish is a special promo for celebrating The Independence Day of Indonesia called "Paket Kemerdekaan", and this promo only applies until August 31, 2018. My first impression about this dish is the taste will be as good as the presentation does. The katsu s are crispy on the outside, and the fish is soft on the inside. The fish is easily melted on my tongue after biting it for the first time, and makes me wanted to eat the fish more and more.

I Admire Who

When I get questioned, "A person whom you admire?" I will automatically be puzzled. In this world, there are a lot of people that I admire―few of them are becoming my inspiration. Friends, actors/actress, singers, youtubers , etc.―except parents. Why? There are a million reasons that I do not like about them, especially the way they educate their own child. Here is why. Every parents surely long for their child to reach their own dreams that is running smoothly without a single obstacle in front of them, including my parents. I am fully aware that if I succeed reaching my own dream, it means that I also succeed making my parents proud. But, as everyone know, a trip to our own destination is very complex. Which means a few of them will reach the top safely, while the others fall down or die in the middle of the trip. It all started when I already enrolled in elementary school. That time I was imposed by my dad to study every day every night (except on
