3. Gelora Bakery
This bakery is very famous on social media today. Established since 1980. It has no branches and only produces cakes and bread. Some people say that the pastries here are very delicious. In fact, it is tastier than famous brands in Indonesia. It was quite a queue when I bought it.

I bought a meat filled bread. With a price of IDR 35,000. I queued for almost 30 minutes. The bread here is sold in the market. I didn't have time to interview the shop owner. Because, the shop owner is very busy. Many groups of buyers come.
