The warm modern Sundanese feel of the sajian Sunda Sambara restaurant and the friendly service create a cheery atmosphere that is enhanced by the ethnic tunes played at the restaurant. Here there are no rules as to which dish you should start on first: just get yourself a bowl of rice and an assortment of dishes and tuck in! you could start with a bowl of Sayur Asam (a light yet flavorsome vegetable soup with beef broth and tamarind). Highly recommended are the well-marinated and succulent Ayam Madu Sumbara (sweet honey chicken) and the sweet and subtly smoky squid Balakutak cumi-bakar, grilled to tender perfection. A must try is the Gurame Goreng, a farm raised fish with such a unique flavor that no seasoning or marinade is needed when preparing it. Try the Sate Maranggi, a tender meat satay which presents authentic Sundanese flavors. The main menu covers a good selection from meats to seafood and vegetables, while a separate dessert menu is also available upon request. No alcoholic drinks are served at this halal restaurant. Even as you tuck into their signature dishes, be sure to save some space for their breathtaking desserts. Top picks are the Jajanan Pasar, such as Surabi, Colenak, or Katimus. On the drink list, try the Bajigur, Sekoteng, or Bandrek. The service staffs are casual, yet very attentive and efficient. Sajian Sambara has additional locations in Bandung at Jl. Trunojoyo 64, Jl. RE Martadinata 17-21 and at Foodlife on the 3rd floor.
