Why it matters
Why Rumah Makan Ibu Haji Ciganea is worth your time
Eating in a regional rumah makan shows how Sundanese cooking travels beyond Bandung, and the price band is gentle for a family on a long itinerary. The daytime hours suit older travellers who prefer to eat early and rest in the evening.
It is not a verified vegetarian address, so approach it with questions and a flexible order. Its Purwakarta roots add a small story to the meal, showing that West Javan food culture spreads along the roads between towns, and the modest price band keeps a longer trip within budget for several people.

How to experience it
Wikivoyage lists Rumah Makan Ibu Haji Ciganea at Jalan Lodaya 29 under budget Sundanese food, noting it comes from Purwakarta and now also operates in Bandung, with hours of 08:00 to 16:00 daily. Purwakarta is a town in West Java, so this is a regional restaurant brand rather than a Bandung original.
A rumah makan is an ordinary eating house, typically with rice and a spread of dishes. We did not see this one's menu or display, so we cannot say what is on offer. Tell the staff you avoid meat, fish and egg and ask them to point out suitable vegetable, tofu or tempeh dishes.
Jalan Lodaya is also home to other eateries listed by Wikivoyage, so it is easy to switch if the kitchen cannot help. Finish by mid-afternoon, since the listed closing time is 16:00.
