Curious about the viral 4.8-star crispy omelette rice from Dadar Beredar? This review investigates the hype. Discover its signature dish, featuring a perfectly fried egg with irresistible lacy edges. While the flavor is intensely spicy and satisfyingly crunchy, be warned—it's also incredibly oily. The article also spills the tea on the forgetful service and questionable hygiene, helping you decide if this popular spot is truly worth the long queue and high praise.
Every time I pass by this Dadar Beredar in Bekasi, I see a long line. It has over 5700+ reviews on Google with a high score of 4.8, and it even calls itself the "Pioneer of Crispy Omelettes in Indonesia"[1]… Anjay, a scene like this really makes you curious! I happened to be passing by today and decided to check it out myself to see what this super-hyped internet-famous spot is really all about.
Carb Bomb, a bite of heaven or a mouthful of grease?
The menu is simple, focusing on crispy omelette rice with various side dishes. I ordered the signature squid omelette rice (Nasi Telur Dadar Cumi)[2]. The egg is definitely the main selling point, fried to a golden crisp, with charred, "lacy edges" that look so appetizing.
I couldn't wait to take a bite. *Crunch*, it was really crispy! But the next second... OMG, the oil! It felt like it was oozing from between my teeth[3]! They were super generous with the sambal, and the spiciness was maxed out. For a heavy-flavor lover like me, it was absolutely Mantap! My friend's shredded chicken was a bit of a miss; it was overwhelmingly salty. Oh, and you should definitely upgrade the rice to lime leaf rice (Nasi Daun Jeruk)[4]. The unique aroma helps cut through the grease a bit, which was a nice surprise.
The Flavor is On Point, But the Service and Hygiene...
Honestly, the taste is okay, but the overall dining experience... is hard to put into words. 😅
The staff seemed to be sleepwalking. We placed our order and paid, but after waiting forever, our food never came. When we asked, they just said, "Oh, we forgot"[5]. Finding a seat was all about being quick and sharp-eyed. When we finally sat down, the table was greasy and hadn't been wiped[6], the floor was sticky too, and a few fly-bros wanted to Nongkrong with me. Who can stand that?
The pricing is also a bit confusing. The flyer says it starts from 13k IDR[7], which sounds great. But I just added one side dish and my bill came out to 85k[8]. As for the portion size, well, it was just okay. Some people might find it filling, but I thought it was just alright[9].
