Don't let the 4.6-star Google rating fool you! This article details a late-night visit to a 24-hour Richeese Factory that turned into a major disappointment. While it promises fried chicken around the clock, hungry night owls might find a different reality. Learn why core menu items like fried chicken were missing and service quality dropped after midnight. This is a must-read cautionary tale for anyone planning a late-night Richeese run in Tangerang.
Midnight on a weekend, my stomach was rumbling, and seeing the glowing "Open 24 Hours" sign at a Richeese Factory on the streets of Tangerang was like seeing an oasis in the desert. I thought to myself, this is truly Indonesia's national fried chicken, it really gets us night owls! Nearly 5,000 reviews on Google with a high score of 4.6[1], how could this go wrong? Mantap!
But... reality hit me with a loud slap in the face 😩. I excitedly ran to the counter, dreaming of the joy of fried chicken drenched in spicy cheese sauce, but the guy just shrugged and said, "Sorry, fried chicken? We don't have any." Want some fizzy drinks? "Sorry, we only have iced tea[2]."
I was stunned on the spot??? Wait, bro, you're a 24-hour fried chicken joint! What's the point of being open if you don't have fried chicken? It's as ridiculous as going to a hot pot restaurant and being told they're out of soup base!
Settling for the next best thing, I thought I'd get an ice cream to soothe my wounded soul. But when I got it, the ice cream was already melting, limply slumping over the cone[3], and the sight just made my heart sink. This isn't Nongkrong, this is an ordeal.
Seriously, I totally don't get this "Schrödinger's 24-hour service" kind of operation. They have a 24-hour sign up, but all their core products are missing during the midnight hours. Isn't this just playing with the feelings of us late-night food hunters? Anjay!
A Guide to Avoiding Pitfalls | Richeese Factory Late-Night Edition
A heads-up for all you night owl girls, if you're also thinking of going there to Chill late at night:
Girls, has anyone else been backstabbed by this Richeese Factory late at night? Let's talk about it in the comments! 😂
- 1. Don't trust the "24-hour" sign: If you're going for the fried chicken, please visit during normal meal times. In the late-night hours, it might just be a "24-hour iced tea shop" with very limited product availability[4].
- 2. Adjust your expectations: Don't be fooled by the high rating on Google[5]; that score was most likely earned during normal business hours in the daytime. The late-night service and quality control, emmm, are hard to put into words.
- 3. Have a backup plan: Tangerang has plenty of late-night snack options, so there's no need to be fixated on this one place. If you're really craving fast food, why not check out the place next door?
- A 24-hour Richeese Factory in Tangerang! With nearly 5k Google reviews and a 4.6 rating[1], expectations were high.
- It's a late-night “Schrödinger's chicken shop”—all core items are missing, so what can you even order?[2]
- Our ice cream arrived completely melted, a sad, limp mess on the cone[3]. A truly cursed Nongkrong experience.
