A few days ago, I went to visit Warung Ce!, a simple eatery with signature Kupang dishes. Warung Ce! is located very near to my house in Taman Palem Lestari. I know this place from some friends’ posts and the pictures looked tempting. I am always in an open relationship with pork, so the second I saw the pictures, the craving could haunt me for days. That’s why, I, with great determination, visited the place after one previous failed attempt (I tried to visit them the previous day, and since it’s 9 in the evening, they were closed already).
The place itself is just a very simple shop house, with simply homey feel. It only has wooden tables and chairs without anything else. The lighting was bad. The white lamps they’re using weren’t bright enough, so it made the place looked gloomy. I think with better lighting, it can really attract more guests.
We were given the menu book, with simple pictures, food description and price. Without further ado, I ordered myself a portion of roasted pork and rica rica pork. Oh, we ordered the Es Cincau and Lemon-Infused Water.
Well, I didn’t try any others. The pork satay and looked gorgeous, but maybe later.
All in all, the experience was sort of disappointing, mainly because of the roasted pork which I had super high expectation for. But I will give Warung Ce another chance and try to come back for its Babi Sei’ some other time. Hope the signature dish won’t disappoint next visit.
