Today we went grocery shopping with Tonny's mom and his sister. Really we just accompany her to help out. Her favorite spot to go is Tiara Dewata (Crown of the Gods). It's been there since 1986. Before that came along, she would go to the open markets (pasar) for daily needs. As the years pass here, the more and more it becomes westernized.
Before picking his mom up we had lunch with his sister at a Bakso cafe. I say cafe because it's smaller than a restaurant. Here they are called Warung. Bakso (as they are called in West Java, or Bakwan as they are called in East Java) are a type of meatball served either steamed and served in a chicken broth or deep fried. Either way they are delicious!
