Souvenirs from Kedai Bukit Rhema: Signature Products You Can Take Home from Borobudur

Last week there were guests from Jakarta who bought three packs of Menoreh ground coffee at once. They said, “This is for the neighbors who asked for it, they tried it when I brought some home last month.”

It turns out that the most sought-after souvenirs from Kedai Bukit Rhema are not ordinary souvenirs — but local products that are indeed not sold in city minimarkets.

Why Buy Souvenirs at Kedai Bukit Rhema?

Located just 2.5 kilometers or about a 5-7 minute drive from the main gate of Borobudur Temple, Kedai Bukit Rhema is not just a comfortable place to eat.

Products That Cannot Be Taken Home

Although we strive to provide various choices of souvenirs, there are some dishes at Kedai Bukit Rhema that are indeed designed to be enjoyed directly on the spot. This is to maintain their best flavor quality and freshness. We always prioritize an optimal culinary experience for every visitor.

Mendoan & Fritters: Only Last 4-6 Hours

Warm mendoan and various other types of wet fritters are one of the favorite snacks often ordered at Kedai Bukit Rhema. However, due to their nature of being fried right before serving, these products are most delicious when eaten while still warm and crispy. Their durability is very limited, only about 4-6 hours. After that, the texture will change and will no longer be as delicious as when freshly cooked.

If you still want to take home snacks, fried bananas can be a good alternative. Even though they also have a durability of 4-6 hours in packaging, fried bananas tend to be more stable in texture compared to mendoan or other fritters that get mushy more easily. However, for the best experience, we still recommend enjoying our fritters directly on the spot while enjoying the beautiful atmosphere of Borobudur.

Oxtail Soup: Not Available for Takeaway

Our oxtail soup is one of the highly favored main dishes, famous for its rich-spiced broth and tender oxtail meat. This dish is carefully prepared to be enjoyed while hot, with all the flavor elements blending perfectly. Therefore, oxtail soup is not available to be taken home (takeaway). We want to ensure you experience the maximum deliciousness of this dish, which can only be obtained when served fresh at our table.

We invite you to enjoy a warm bowl of oxtail soup directly at Kedai Bukit Rhema, perhaps after you are tired of exploring Borobudur Temple or before continuing your journey along the Elo River. This is a part of the Kedai Bukit Rhema Culinary Guide experience that you should not miss.
