Why it matters
Why Toko Roti Sidodadi is worth your time
Small old bakeries like this one hold a place in Bandung life that malls and chains do not: they sell ordinary bread at ordinary prices to locals, and the guide gives 1954 as the start of this one.
For an Indian family, a bakery is also the most practical answer to the problem Wikivoyage raises, that vegetarian restaurants are uncommon in the city. A bun and a bottle of water carry you through a long sightseeing day, provided you have checked what is inside.

How to experience it
The What's New Indonesia guide describes Toko Roti Sidodadi as selling a wide variety of sweet and savoury breads and pastries at affordable prices. It does not name a signature item, so we do not invent one.
Go in the morning for the best choice. Look at the labels or ask for each item by name: sweet buns are the likelier vegetarian picks, but savoury rolls in Indonesian bakeries often hold sausage, chicken or tuna, and the same case may hold egg-based items. Ask before you buy rather than guessing by sight.
It is easy to combine with a Braga walk or a trip to the Pasar Baru area on the same street. Buy something simple to carry for a day trip to Lembang, where vegetarian options are thinner.
Plan with confidence
Small checks that make a better meal.
- Ask what is inside each item
