jeJamuran - Part 2

This is only short information regarding on jeJamuran. When I visited the jeJamuran dining stall last week, I found that the menu offered by jeJamuran was added 2 items. These items were not the new menu, but, it will serve everyday rather than only Saturday and Sunday. The menu were Shiitake omelet and Jamur asem manis.

So, you do not need to wait until Saturday nor Sunday to have these menu like before...
Although the fuelprice was higher, no worries that until now there is no change on the menu offered by jeJamuran...
