I always say, it doesn't matter where you send me, I'm sure I will find something to buy. It's nice to know I have not yet been proven wrong. Hahaha.
On my first work trip to Indonesia, we attended a workshop, so I was in a bit of a panic, grabbing everything I could find from the 1 mini-mart we stopped at on the way to the airport just so I could buy something! I must admit, that trip was a bit desperate and I ended up bringing home a lot of Indomie, as well as Oreos for Sofia, which in my defense came with stackable food containers!
This time around, we went for a trade visit, which means more stores... and more shopping opportunities! I even have a recommended to buy list:
1. Silver Queen Chocolates
Local chocolates with Cashew that my office mates from Manila asked me to buy. I like the Dark Chocolate version.
2. Oishi Strawberry Crunch
Made by a Filipino company, but ironically, the Strawberry flavor is not available in the Philippines. Hooray for something to hoard from Indonesia.
3. Ceres Chocolate Sprinkles for sandwiches or topping
I was actually tempted to buy this when I saw it last trip, I knew I wanted it for sure when I tried it from the Sweet Martabak filling (which you can read about here). I've been told Ceres is the best brand. |
4. Must try sadly not for bringing home are the cool Ice Cream Innovations
Red Velvet Cornetto |
Paddle Pop Banana Boat Peelable Grape Gummy on a Vanilla Ice Cream Stick |
Available in a whole range too!!! We're just missing Kiki and Lala! |
Good Quality too at a reasonable price so I definitely want to hoard more of this on my next visits! |
I say Rota + because due to the flight schedule, I had to stay in Jakarta an extra night so I got to visit Senayan City Shopping Mall.
and at the basement, they have my favorite local cafe which serves their specialty Avocado Coffee!!!
Super Yummy! I just slurp around the Ice Cream to make it less fat. |
So there you have my Indonesia Shopping List, and that's only after two visits! You can just imagine what else I'll find to buy after two years! Hahaha. just saying.
