Mini Fridge

Halls usually do provide students with a communal fridge but these fridges are very vulnerable. This is because theft of food is a very common occurrence in halls with radical behaviour such as removing name tags is displayed. A mini fridge would solve that problem by being located in your room with the added benefit of convenience.

Induction Stove

Induction stoves cannot be used in every halls of residence. This is because they are a potential fire hazard and would violate hall safety rules. However, if a hall permits, induction stoves would be a great way to allow students to cook a wide variety of food in their dorm room.

Rice Cooker

Most rice cookers will be banned from halls due to fire hazards but microwaveable ones are safe. This will be essential for Indonesian students who miss having rice as a part of their daily diet. These rice cookers are very easy to use and are on the cheaper side of the cooking appliance spectrum.

Microwave

A microwave is one of the most essential appliances a student could have. This is because heating food is very useful for a very wide range of foods. Stored food, frozen food, cooking with certain equipment and instant food can all be heated with a microwave. Fortunately, most halls provide a microwave for the students to use but on the off chance that they don’t this is a worthy investment to add into your hall room.

Pans

Pans are a curious case as they are important specifically for Indonesian students. This is because pans are used to cook the holy grail of Indonesian cuisine; Indomie. With a pan and kettle all it takes is to cook the Indomie inside the pan with the hot water. This will allow you to save money, time and suffering from hunger to really embody your Indonesia based counterparts or “Anak Kostan”.
