Boncafe, Surabaya, Indonesia
June 02, 2014
Boncafe Steak & Ice Cream is one of the many restaurants offering Western food at a somewhat affordable price. They specialise in steaks that focuses on quality and price. Though it cannot be compared to upper-class western restaurants, this restaurant and branches around the city has been serving since 1977. Serving steaks on hot plates,
'Lumpia Basah' (Rp20k = AUD$2) which is basically like spring rolls but not fried, and no, not like those Vietnamese rice paper rolls either. It is wrapped in a crepe-like skin filled with meat and vegetables. A simple dish but a nice way to start lunch. They always have spring onions, pickles, chilli and sauce on the side.
Not too sure what the burger's name was but this was just your typical cheeseburger. Served with a side of a slice of tomato and lettuce which I don't think was quite needed since it didn't seem to be like a salad, but more as a garnish. Chips were also given at the side, but only a few. Though the burger bun was soft, the meat patty was surprisingly not too bad.
The fries weren't fried nicely making them a bit soggy, and they could have maybe left it in the frier for a bit longer to make it crispier.The steamed vegetables did not have any sauce which made it plain to eat, though there is a sauce on the side which I think was gravy which you could pour on the dish.
