    MONKS [ Kelapa Gading, Kafe ]

    Love Gading. So much tasty coffee shop

    Hot Latte (35K). Here you can request the latte art. I chose swan. It came like this. Not so swan but yeah, still cool enough. The coffee was so so, definitely far from the best latte I've had. But the place was cool. The ambiance will make you wanna chill and spend lot of time there. Super cozy, cool and the services were good.
    Bata Cake (40K). White chocolate mousse, mint and cookie crunch. Normally I don't like white chocolate, but for this one I'll make an exception. It had nice crunchy thin outer chocolate shell. Put it in my mouth and it immediately melted. It gave nice contrast texture, crunchy and melted. The white chocolate mousse was g Sweet, a bit milky and super airy. The mint and the cookie crunch, I just didn't taste it. My best guess is, they put the minty thing and cookie crunch on top of the cake. I saw some minced greeny thingy and crumbled thing on top, but I tasted nothing. Still a good cake though.
    Some people told me about the "stone" cake there. Yeah, actually it took my attention. I saw a stone looking thing on the cake case. Definitely gonna try it the next time I come.

    Sajiva Coffee Company [ Tebet, Kafe ]

    Cozy place to visit

    Piccolo. The place was cool. If you're looking for a place to chill then I'm gonna recommend this one. But the taste was so so. Lacked of boldness and not so smooth. They said I could choose the bean, but they made me the piccolo before I picked the bean. I asked the barista what kind of bean he used and if I'm not mistaken he told me "karina" or something like that. Not something I'm familiar with. Google it and found nothing. Maybe I misheard.
    When making the art, the barista screwed it. Overflow and the art was gone. I said no complain at all, but the barista re-made the coffee. I do appreciate the initiative, actually I don't really need the art but it shows that the service there is good.
    They also sell good food (maybe?). I didn't have the chance to try. I was totally full back there. The person next to me ordered fried dimsum and the smell was incredible.

    Gorgeous as always

    Anago. Grilled sea eel sushi. Unlike the other sushi places, this place still serves the sushi the old way. The topping can completely covering the rice. Look at the ratio of the eel and the rice. Just love it. Btw, the eel was gorgeous. Sweet, succulent, not fishy at all and the glaze sauce make it even sweeter.

    Oh, and the wasabi was superb. For me the other sushi places using the same old thing, but here, superbbbb. Just a little pinch and I felt a strong minty kick in my nose.

    Deliciousness comes with a price and I'm happy to pay.

    Sama Dengan [ Kalibata, Kafe ]

    Just a random try

    Big Breakie. Egg, salad, toasted bread, sausage, beef rasher and sauteed mushroom. The salad had nothing special to it, just greenies and a piece of tomato with vinegary dressing. The sausage was bad, it tasted like a cheap instant sausage product. The beef rasher was good. Thin but not too thin. It still had texture to bite, make it a little bit thinner and it'd lose the texture. And it's quite beefy and savoury and I could taste smoky grilled flavor out of it. For the sauteed mushroom, I ain't quite sure. It tasted so mushroomy, it also had a mushroom bitterness to it. It's a bold move I must say, it's not for everyone. Me? I don't have problem with that so I'm gonna give an extra credit for that. The egg was lacked of seasonings. I tasted the natural creaminess from the egg, but that's it. Now the most anticlimatic part, the toasted bread. The bread was super mushy and not tempting at all. I only took around 15sec to take the shot, so no excuse. I took one small bite and I put that aside immediately, it's a total turn off. And just a little tip, if you wanna put the scrambled egg on top of the toasted bread, make sure you really toast it. Make it crispier and it'll prevent this mushy problem. Btw, I did enjoy the place. Small but cozy, the service was friendly and the price is reasonable. Gonna try the burger next, had a glimpse and it looked great.

    Kata Kata [ Muara Karang, Kafe ]

    The snack was horrible

    Mozza Stick. Fried breaded mozzarella cheese served with tartar sauce. 

    It had very interesting stench to it. Interesting, not a good or necessarily a bad one. The stick was pretty oily, I felt like sinful eating that one. The cheese wasn't really melted and there's hole in the stick. So the cheese went down to the wrap and trust me, there's no glamorous way to eat the leaked cheese. 

    The sauce, I'd call that mayonnaise, not tartar. I tasted just slight sourness from that sauce. Something that nearly non-existent. It tasted like my usual mayonnaise except the colour was red-ish. Tasted great though.

    Nama Sushi by Sushi Masa [ Pluit, Jepang ]

    Great place to eat sushi

    Salmon Aburi Sushi. I used to like it raw, but a little torch just doubling the flavor. Before the chef blow torch the salmon, he brushed it with some kind of sauce. Is it kaeshi? Not sure. Here's the thing, he put the salmon on top of the rice before torch it, so the oil went down and the rice absorbed it all. It made huge impact. Fresh, fatty, thick, smoky, all in one bite. You need no shoyu to eat this but a little dip and adding a pinch of wasabi will make it even better. For me, Nama Sushi is one of the best place to eat sushi. Great quality sushi at reasonable price.

    Warung Bali Bedugul [ Pantai Indah Kapuk, Indonesia ]

    Miss bali? Don't worry

    Pork Ribs. Grilled pork ribs with BBQ sauce. It's tasty and tender. Not fell off the bone tender kind of level but tender enough not to hurt your teeth.  Sometime ribs can be tough and hard to chew, you need no worry about that. The BBQ sauce was good. I ain't sure whether they use home-made one or buy the instant one. Don't really care, as long as it tastes good. 500gr of pork ribs? (Written on the menu, I didn't bring scale so don't ask) I could devour all of that goodness.
    Blackened Pork with Potato. Roasted pork with Warung Bali Bedugul black pepper sauce. All black? Not so tempting? Who cares. It tasted good. I think they use soy sauce in their black pepper sauce. It had such sweet tasting, not too peppery and a lil bit deep. The pork was good, very lean, no fat or whatsoever. But the highlight was still the black pepper sauce. I could eat plain rice with that sauce alone. The potato was quite plain. Dipped it to the sauce and dang!! So good.
    Yeah, I could break them first before taking picture to get a better color. The meat inside wasn't black. But what's the point of me doing that. I wanna show you how they will serve it to you later.

    Taste good. The crowd isn't for nothing

    Okaka Onigiri. Dried bonito rice ball. Basically it's rice ball mixed with shreddered dried bonito. Quite plain to be honest, but still can't resist. Btw, I dipped it with shoyu mixed with wasabi. It gave salty flavor and nice strong wasabi sensation. Price wise, worth it.

    Maxx Coffee [ Cideng, Kafe ]

    If they stop copying 'that brand' it's gonna be awesome

    Orange Mocha Frappe. How to describe it. I hate the brand but flavor wise, it's good. The coffee wasn't that strong, not too sweet and chocolatey and I tasted super thin orange flavor at the end. That's why I loved it, the orange wasn't overpowering the mocha. Just a bit of orange hint and that's it.

    The Halal Guys [ Thamrin, Arab/Timur Tengah ]

    Nice middle eastern food

    Falafel. How often can you find nice middle-eastern food like this. The texture was dry as it should be. The broccoli was damn good and flavorfull. Salty, savory and nice crunchy texture on the outside. I'm not a fan of broccoli but for this one, I'll make an exception. The taste was a class on its own.
