Gak sengaja tadi mampir kesini, bakso dan mie ayamnya ternyata enak dan sesuai harga, ya masih maulah kalo untuk balik lagi, semoga rasanya gak berubah utk kedepannya... Suasana bintang 4 karena agak redup aja sih, mungkin karena udah lama, butuh warna yg lebih cerah dan pencahayaan yg lebih terang lagi, semoga makin sukses yaaaa, Terima Kasih
