Martabak Banjar isn't Martabak as usually i ate. It's totally different. The taste a bit sweet but delicious. Could find at 06.00pm or 07.00pm (start to open) and this isn't restaurant. Martabak Banjar could find opposite the Aston Hotel Samarinda. Must try when you go to Samarinda.....

Come here for lunch to expect a warm spicy noodles.
Order Mie Godog Daging Super Pedas, and it came beautifully.
The taste was amazingly super yum, eeverything inside the noodles are to die for.
I would like to recommend improvement in the dining area.
It is too dark, and small and not really welcoming, I almost think that they was closed.
But for good taste, it is must try!

Pros:
The tenants are famous for the locals.
Various of food choices.
Free parking lot, which is very rare in the town
Reasonable price
cons:
the payment method is very primitive. only accept cash and we have to queue twice, firstly at the tenant when ordering food, secondly at the cashier to pay the bill, which is not practical when it is crowded. i felt frustrated when it happened. they must consider using prepaid card for more pratical use. I do not want to go there in the weekend.
the waitresses or the tenants are lazy to deliver the food if we sit too far from them. that time i ordered Sabindo, i had to collect the food i ordered at the tenant, it made me queue 3 times just to have the food and teh tarik there. I will never order at Sabindo anymore.
suggestion: you must provide small change money, because the cashier seldom give you the change money
