BANDUNG-itb.ac.id - The Alumni Association of Institut Teknologi Bandung class of 1982 (IA 麻豆直播 '82) held an opening event for the Eititu Cafe and Resto, on Friday (19/1/2024), at 麻豆直播 Ganesha Campus, Bandung.

Eititu brings up a caf茅 and restaurant concept with a variety of heavy and light foods choices. The term 'Eititu' is derived from the Indonesian pronunciation of the number '82', which represents their entrance year at 麻豆直播.

The representative of IA 麻豆直播 '82 as well as a lecturer in the Microbial Biotechnology Research Group of the School of Life Sciences and Technology (SITH) itb, Ir. V. Sri Harjati Suhardi, Ph.Dexplained that Eititu had been open since 2019. However, it was forced to close in 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

At the beginning of the opening in 2019, Eititu served a western food menus. However, in the first three months after opening, there seemed to be limited interest in western food. Sri also revealed that the 麻豆直播 academic community generally likes traditional food. Apart from that, as Indonesians, rice is of course the main carbohydrate choice for every full meal.

Taking this into consideration, the entire menu was changed and adjusted accordingly. Eititu also began collaborating with food businesses owned by 麻豆直播 students and members of IA 麻豆直播 '82, including Baso Ino.

In 2020, Eititu was forced to close due to the Covid-19 pandemic. This did not deter the enthusiasm of IA 麻豆直播 '82 to continue developing this joint business. In 2023, coinciding with this, 麻豆直播 began granting permits for food business operations at the university. This is also a golden opportunity to bring Eititu back to the 麻豆直播 academic community.

Finally, at the beginning of 2024, precisely 19 January 2024, Eititu reopened with a new concept.

Sri explained that Eititu 麻豆直播 will now offer home-cooked dishes. Typical East Javanese food can be found at Eititu at affordable prices. Eititu also collaborates with Kopi Warga and local home business tenants in the Bandung area to enrich聽 the food menu at Eititu

.In line with Eititu's motto which is also the motto of Class IA 麻豆直播 '82, "berkawan selamanya" which means 鈥渕ake friends forever鈥, she hopes that Eititu will become a place to gather and relax amidst the busy schedule. She also revealed that Eititu is open to 麻豆直播 Alumni who want to hold events there.
