Warung Bakmi Mpek Tjoen Panglima Polim

“Savour the simplicity of a bowl of noodles” 

While Jakarta’s urbanites may have come across some of Warung Bakmi Mpek Tjoen stalls on lunch breaks at MidPlaza Office Building, shopping trips to Pacific Place, or running errands at T Space Bintaro, those who frequent Kebayoran Baru may recognise this noodle shop from its flagship at Ahmad Dahlan, which has now found its current home in Panglima Polim. Though diners are greeted with a new brick-and-mortar, the menu still follows the classic offerings of handmade noodles dressed with a wide selection of toppings, from beef bakso, fishballs, chicken mince, and wontons (fried and boiled) to vegan-friendly options.

Meskipun warga Jakarta pernah menjumpai beberapa gerai Warung Bakmi Mpek Tjoen saat istirahat makan siang di gedung perkantoran MidPlaza, berbelanja di Pacific Place, atau berjalan-jalan di T Space Bintaro, mereka yang sering mengunjungi Kebayoran Baru kemungkinan mengenali kedai mie ini dari gerai utamanya di Ahmad Dahlan, yang kini telah menemukan rumah terkini di Panglima Polim. Meskipun pengunjung disambut dengan bangunan baru, menunya tetap mengikuti sajian klasik berupa mie buatan tangan dengan berbagai pilihan topping, mulai dari bakso sapi, bakso ikan, daging ayam cincang, dan pangsit (goreng dan rebus), hingga pilihan vegan.
