Bandung Review 3 -Shopping

Jangan terkejut. Anda tak salah page. hehe Tbe2 datang mood bosan dengan layout blog. Dengan hasil pertolongan roomate, and yey! dapat background baru :D

I just realized that I owe one super late post about Shopping in Bandung. and it was about 3 months back. FUH! Memang sah hilang ingatan :P Itu pon teringat sebab last few days my colleagues ajak pegi Bandung. again? HAHA. But I haven't decided yet.

Pasar Baru.

For Malay women, Pasar Baru is Jalan TAR version Indon..A MUST-GO! Whoever go to Bandung, but miss Pasar Baru, please? book another flight ticket now. or else you can't mark Bandung as your visited place just yet :P Baju kurung dengan telekung memang murah tak tipu. Kadang2 less than half dri harge dekat Malaysia.RM3 for bawal 1 tone? great deal!

Tip #1 : Please spend at least one day for Pasar Baru. I repeat. AT LEAST. Makan kenyang2 before start shopping because you'll never get the chance to grab your lunch at any time. Busy pilih kain
Tip #2 : Pasar Baru must be the 1st shopping place you go, because most likely you'll spend more than half of your cash there. Outlet lain accept credit card.
Tip #3 : Please, nego before you buy anything! and speak with Indonesian accent is not just to show respect, but for much lower price. (For us, only Yas do the talking, we just do the billing part. HAHA)

Jalan Riau

There are a lot of outlet along the street. Just prepare enough money and you're good to go :P Most of them are brand outlet yang memang byk brand best2 seperti Zara, Banana Republic etc but with a cheaper price! Jalan Riau is more to blouses, elegant and formal wear. Sesuai la utk kami yang nak carik baju ke kerja konon2nya. hehe. Ade a few outlet yang highly recommended tapi the only one yang saya igt is the Secret. maybe because of the name, Secret? haha.

Jalan Dago

Almost the same like Jalan Riau, outlet along the street. Tapi Jalan Dago banyak baju2 tshirt and pants. blouses2 kureng la. If you plan to buy Aeropostale tshirt and Ralph Lauren poloshirt with low price, memang sesuai pergi Jalan Dago. But, me and my Bandung tripmates didnt enjoy Jln Dago as much as we loveee Jalan Riau. hehe

Rumah Mode

We went to Rumah Mode on the way back from Tangkuban Perahu. Rumah Mode is one big outlet yang ramai gila orang i dont know why. Actually it was not very big, but bigger than any other outlet at Jalan Riau and Jalan Dago. According to Yas, orang Malaysia memang suke gila shopping kat Rumah Mode, and she is indeed true. Memang ramai and bukan Malaysian je, semua tourists la suka. Tapi semua baju tak kene taste saya. But guess what, I found one Tommy poloshirt exactly same like mine, which I bought at US. Tapi saya untung a few bucks la sebab beli time sale kat US. meaning if no sale, Rumah Mode is cheaper.

Kartika Sari

Hahhh Ini bukan outlet ye. Tapi still under shopping becauseee most people shop like nobody business. Semua stok beli berkotak2 haha. So for those who never heard of it, Kartika Sari is a brownies shop. Ade a few branches at Bandung, famous with varieties of Brownies, just say it. Tapi favorite saya brownies bakar yang biase. kalau makan dengan ice-cream lgi sedap hihi. and ade another brownies shop yang famous called Amanda. Cheaper than Kartika Sari, but less choices, and Marble choc brownies is higly recommended.

Lega rase dah bayar hutang. hehe. Have fun sape2 nak pegi Bandung, and remember, bring a lot of cash! You never know how much you could spend, until the last day of your trip, what is left was - pocket no coins! hehe.
