    Fook Yew [ Thamrin, China ]

    Taking rengginang to the Next Level

    Crispy Salted Egg Corn. The ingredients are so simple. Salted egg, corn and crispy rice (you can call it rengginang if you like 🤣). It deserves a moment of silence. It's very pungent with the salted egg aroma but it's not overwhelming the smoky crispy rice. After biting it for a while, then you can taste slightly sweet flavor from the corn. That's insane! I know some of you gonna think 'yeah, salted egg is really happening so everybody gonna make a new dish using it.' Well, they already have this menu long-long-long time before the hype.
    PS : I really hope they sponsor me because I love it so much but it's quite expensive to buy. 🤣🤣🤣 I'm a poor boy, 50K for rengginang is really pricey.

    Soup Restaurant [ Thamrin, China ]

    Best Chinese Food Restaurant

    Five Spices Beef Tounge. Thin sliced beef tounge marinated with their secret sauce. A bit salty and sweet from the sauce. The tongue just disintegrates in your mouth. This is not exagerration,  I've never eaten tongue with this texture. I can say that this is tongue on the next level.

    Satoo - Hotel Shangri-La Jakarta [ Sudirman, Jepang,China,Barat,Indonesia ]

    It Used to be My Fav Buffet Place, Now just so so

    Vol Au Vent. Round bite sized shell of puff pastry. The filling was some kind of slightly sweet cream. The pastry itself was nice. Thin, crunchy and not too sweet. To make the pastry more tasty, they put fresh fruit on top and sprinkled it with powdered sugar.
    It used to be my fav all-you-can-eat restaurant. Lot of choices, great taste and the service was good. But now, the quality of the food is a bit compromised. The pasta was super overcooked, hard and tasteless. The seafood section was not that fresh. Come on, you can do better than that. The highlight for me was the steak. Asked for medium rare and he gave me a perfectly medium rare steak. One more thing, the blackpepper sauce was superb!

    DORE by LeTAO [ Thamrin, Toko Kue ]

    Pricey but Tasty

    Le Choco Noir (left), Basil Gorgonzola (middle) and Earl Grey (right). Usually I don't eat this kind of cookies but this three are exceptional.
    The Choco Noir is not too sweet yet still has slightly sweet side. For the record, I don't eat sweet things. So when I say slightly sweet, I really mean it. The Earl Grey is good. Strong Earl Grey after taste. When the other make green tea cookies, they make something different and more importantly it tastes damn good. The Basil Gorgonzola is the bomb! I don't know how to explain it. Maybe dope gonna be a proper word for this one.
    If you plan to taste them all, my suggestion is to eat the Basil Gorgonzola last. It's the flavor you want to linger in your mouth as long as possible.

    They're very good but they will also burn your pocket.

    Nama Sushi by Sushi Masa [ Muara Karang, Jepang ]

    Good but not great

    Salmon Toro Misoyaki Set. Quite a complete set. Half-cooked salmon, miso soup, simple salad and rice. It's not the worst salmon I've ever tasted but definitely not the best. The texture of the fish was quite meaty and the skin made it worse. Soggy and bit sticky.

    Even though I don't like this dish, I encourage you to come to this restaurant. I've tried some of their sushi and tasted good. Compare to other sushi chains, I'd prefer this one. Fresh, tasty and still affordable. Especially the Salmon Aburi Sushi.

    Starbucks [ Slipi, Kafe ]

    Customize it

    Mix Frappucino. Taste quite unique and sweet. If you wanna try it, just tell the barista the recipe and they'll make it.
    I used Coffee Frappucino as the base. (On second thought, maybe Espresso Frappucino gonna be a better base for this one.)

    - add Java Chip

    - 2 pumps Mocha Syrup

    - 1 pump Hazelnut Syrup

    - Zero Base

    - use Whipped Cream

    - drizzle the whipped cream with Mocha and Caramel Sauce.

    Pizza E Birra [ Puri, Italia ]

    Aunthentic Aglio Olio

    Real Aglio Olio. Still the best spot to eat aglio olio. How would I like my aglio olio? Plain! Spaghetti, (lot of) garlic, oil and chili. That's all. Adding topping would change the taste and it no longer the aglio olio I love.

    Boat Noodle [ Gandaria, Thailand ]

    The flavor just didn't work on me.

    Basically they have 2 kinds of noodle (rice noodle and egg noodle), 2 kinds of topping (beef meatball and shredded chicken) and 2 kinds of broth (sweet & sour and creamy). You can mix them all into 8 menus. The portion is small, It's more like 1 slurp per bowl, so I suggest to order 4 bowls to start. Well, I tried them all and I just don't get it. Where's the hype! Why do people keep saying it's tasty and cheap! Based on my experience the egg noodle was extremely soft, the shredded chicken was too little (mix it out and poof, it's all gone), and both of the broth lack of spices. It's almost flavorless, unless you put a lot of chili powder. The only thing I like on the bowl is the meatball. It tasted like.... meatball. I did order the sangkaya which is steamed bread with thai coconut jam aka srikaya. The steamed bread was good, light and fluffy, but the coconut jam wasn't as strong as the one I used to eat (all hail srikaya medan). One more thing, the kra-pow chicken rice was good though. Lot of spices, rich and deep flavor.

    Porkylicious

    Sate Babi Johan. Pork belly, intestine and pork skin skewer. So so so good! Especially the pork belly. Extremely tender, fatty, sweet and rich at the same time. Yes, this is my kind of popsicle.

    Nama Sushi by Sushi Masa [ Muara Karang, Jepang ]

    Cold soba

    Zaru Chasoba. It served with a bowl of dipping sauce. *newbie tip : just dip the noodle into the sauce. Don't pour the sauce over the soba*. You can't taste the green tea flavor unless you eat the soba alone. I mean without dipping it. The sauce is very very light. It tastes a bit salty and fishy (in a good way). Tiny portion of soba though, maybe only around 2 or 3 bites.
