    As Indonesian myself, I'm very proud by this. Not only she's from Indonesia, she still not forget Indonesian Food culture and success by it. I hope with this, Indonesian foods will be world-wide know by the worlds. Why? Well, Singapore is the hub between Westerner and Easterner. Just with souvenir from the shop alone would made people around the world know what a small portion of Indonesian foods looks like and taste like.
    I hope the store will be more successful in the future.
    From Indonesia, with love.

    All I know about "Bengawan Solo" is a river in Solo-Center Java. And those cakes are cheap here in Indonesia, and here in my country those traditional cakes usually sales in stall in small amounts, because those cakes are home made and done traditionaly here, and also those cakes can get stale quickly, well, I think for a shop its not an easy business.

Bengawan Solo is Indonesian words and this snacks are introduced there. No hate to claim everything tho. Singapore even Malaysia shares nearly the same culture. So many things are nearly the same. Like Nasi uduk in Indonesia but different name in Malaysia nasi lemak. Kebaya too. If the haze is from Indonesia we clearly will say that it's from us. Not to mention about export import too. So I just tired when people talk about this claiming things, haha. Every culture is unique, if ones really claim another's it's hate (claiming another's culture) but I think if it's near the same so what, same culture, different names. Even kebaya and batik has it's own uniqueness in every place. So pls just spread positivity!!!

    The irony is, there are outlets for this store in Indonesia, where the owners originated.
    Yet people rarely notice or care about them, seeing that it is selling traditional snacks and not western-style treats.
    It goes to show that sometimes another country can fully appreciate native cuisines/culture more than the actual natives.

      @UC5j3at8s9WAMJUGzCkrku-A I can assume that's the case.
      I'm just pointing out the other comments here who claim that they never even heard of it in Indonesia. Whereas when I visited several malls in Indonesia, I ran into the stores and had even purchased some treats from them. And I only know just recently how big it is in Singapore.
      But it's basically a common issue in other countries, not just about Bengawan Solo. Some food varieties (such as churros, kimchi, etc) can become a big hit in foreign countries, while being overlooked and considered street snack/every day meal in their places of origin.

      What, come onnnnn you can find those traditional snacks in traditional markets easily. Why should I buy overpriced traditional snacks from overseas food chain, while I *can* buy the same things from mothers near me who made and sell those snacks in a small, home-industry scale? (And yes I/my family bought traditional snacks almost everyday. Those were even my breakfasts when I was living by myself in my uni days)
