توضیح در سطح شما:
معنی
A shop that sells bread and pastries.
زمینه فرهنگی
Bakeries are often the primary source for 'oleh-oleh' (souvenirs). When traveling between cities, people stop at famous local bakeries to buy boxes of bread for family. In many Javanese cities, the 'Holland Bakery' chain is iconic, not just for its bread but for the giant windmill on top of every building, which has become a local landmark. Modern 'Toko Roti' in cities like Jakarta are often 'lifestyle' spots where people hang out with laptops, similar to coffee shops. Many of the oldest and most famous 'Toko Roti' in Indonesia are family businesses owned by Chinese-Indonesian families, blending European recipes with local tastes.
