Ok, shopping in Bandung is nice eventhough it's only outlets. They have alot of American brands and they have some European ones like H&M and MNG. The factory is in Bandung thats why there are so many outlets there.
The best place is Rumah Mode because their clothes is not so FOS like. Their clothes are affordable. Bandung is shorts heaven. I love shorts and shorts there are damn cheap, only RM20+, not like in Malaysia, RM40+ which i think is not worth. Their jeans are not too expensive. I bought mine for only RM70. Sadly, I didn't get much tops there.
I also went to The Secret. It's not that great. Clothes in Rumah Mode is much nicer. The layout of The Secret is so confusing and messy. There's also Jalan Dagor which is a street full of factory outlets. Didn't walk much there because it seems like my family don't like it there. I ended up buying an undersized dress because my dad rushed me. If not, I would have bought another dress. The outlets in Jalan Dagor is like FOS.
We also went to Heritage, where the clothes there are very casual, alot of T-shirts. It's also like FOS but obviously it's much cheaper, unlike FOS which is so damn overpriced. You can't try on T-shirts there, which I hate. I pantang buy clothes without trying. There's also Toko Tiga, where they sell can say only jeans. There's even Levi's. Some of them cost RM100+ and some RM300+.
There's also a shopping mall called Pasar Baru like Sg Wang, the top floor sells clothes like in Sg Wang but the lower floor sells fabrics for Kebaya and clothes. I bought my Kebaya from 2 different shops. There are so many shops that sell only Fabric. Practically every shop sells material for Kebaya. So the lucky shop got business from my family.
Handbags there are expensive. All of them that I see are imitation so I obviously didn't buy any. They have ALL brands including MNG. Not an expensive brand also want to imitate. Shoes in Bandung are not pretty. Shoes in Malaysia are much nicer.
The food in Indonesia is good. It's like the Malay food in Malaysia. I can eat the food there because I always eat malay food in campus. It's actually nice. Food to eat in Indonesia are Nasi Timpel, Nasi Padang, Ayam Penyet and some of their noodles. Fried rice there taste the same.
Once my sis ate noodles, it was served with 1 jar of chilli that looks like the Chinese chicken rice chilli, she tried 1 drop, and it was damn spicy. She asked my mum and aunt to try it. They both found it damn spicy. From their reaction, it's real hot. So I tried 1 drop from my chopstick (people there use chopstick for all noodles), OMG, it was damn spicy.
The spicyness is different from our cili padi (bird's eye chilli). It taste more to Tabasco kind of hot. Maybe they use habanero or something. I really want to try habanero because I watch Man vs Food and habanero is the world's hottest chilli/pepper.
You can visit my Facebook for some pictures of Bandung. I just remembered I forgot to take photo of 1 cosmetic bag I bought. It cost RM10 and my sis and mum saw it in a shop in Puchong, it only cost RM8. haha. Here are the things I bought in Bandung:
