The second outpost for Richmond’s Indonesian sandwich shop.

The second of Barry Susanto and Erwin Chandra’s cafes channels the same spirit as their Richmond tribute to Indonesia’s coffee shops. Sandwiches are the headline act, from Susanto’s sambal-spiked riff on a Filet-O-Fish to a spicy chicken BLT, a rotating special where the grilled chicken is marinated in chilli and lemongrass. Breakfast muffins − sausage or bacon − come with the option to add hash browns, cruller doughnuts glazed with kaya (coconut jam) anchor the sweets, and Duke’s Coffee keeps diners caffeinated.
In that breakfast muffin ($10), house-made sausage patty and fried egg are lifted by “Bazzinga sauce”, a blend of mayo, chilli paste, fried shallots, spring onion, dill and tarragon.
Good to know: The palm-sugar iced coffee pairs beautifully with a spicy smoked-tuna sandwich.
