4.4Hardware Lane [ Pluit, Kafe ]
Another great cafe around pluit
Homemade battered french toast, sweet caramelized pork bacon (you can choose pork or beef, me? Pork obviously), scrambled eggs, cheddar cheese sauce. What a fantastic breakfast menu. Not too heavy but big enough to satisfy you hunger. The toast was little crispy outside and the inside was totally moist. The scrambled eggs gave a fine, smooth texture and creamy flavor. The cheddar cheese sauce wasn't necessarily needed, I tasted nothing cheesy. The candied pork bacon was good, extremely good. Sweet, crunchy but bouncy at the same time, bacony and super savory. Finally found a good spot where the plating, the taste, the services, the ambiance, everything's on point.
Even though I don't get the bushes idea, Why the bushes. Garnish or what, I tried to eat it with the toast. Yeah, it gave a crunch texture but no flavor.Menu yang dipesan: Candied Bacon French Toast

3.2Dogkyo [ Grogol, Jepang ]
Another twist of hot dog. Slightly above average, but worth to try
Not your usual hotdog right? Dogkyo, hotdog-tokyo. At least that's what she said.
Dogkyo Magnitude. Tonkatsu sauce, japanese mayo, buttered corn and katsuobushi. Delish and unique. I felt like eating hotdog and okonomiyaki.
Bakuhotsu. Hot japanese curry, negi, spicy corn flakes, and nori. If you like spicy food or you can't eat without chili, then this is definitely made for you. It had some nice spicy kick and the flakes gave a crunchy texture.
Subaracheese. Japanese cheese sauce, shoyu, fresh diced tomato, sauteed shimeji and parsley. It's sweet and creamy. Too sweet for me. I just couldn't handle it. The flavor didn't work on me.
Chicken Saraage. Chicken karaage, red cabbage, goma sauce, togarashi and aonori. This hype me up. When I read the menu, I knew I gotta order this. Goma sauce always tastes good, nothing goes wrong with goma sauce. The cabbage was crunchy and the chicken karaage was crispy and juicy. The goma sauce gave an unique fragrant aroma. However, I tasted nothing from the togarashi and the aonori.
All include bread (they toast the bread first to give a lil crunch texture outside) and a big-long sausage (except the chicken saraage, they switch the sausage into chicken karaage)
Overall, I recommend this. Especially the Chicken Saraage.Menu yang dipesan: Dogkyo Magnitude, Bakuhotsu, Chicken Saraage, All 4

3.6Korbeq [ Pantai Indah Kapuk, Korea ]
Affordable buffet place at PIK
Korbeq by Stevan Meat Shop. I know what you think. It's gonna be pricey right? I thought the same way like you do. They do use meat from stevan but don't worry, the price is super affordable. Even much much cheaper than other buffet restaurants.
The quality of the meat was good. Both the chicken and pork were tender, juicy and marinated well. Oh, if you're pork lover, don't forget to order their pork belly, free flow pork belly means heaven on earth! One more, they do have mozzarella cheese. Normally I'd not order that, but guess what? It tasted good. You gotta pay more for that but it's really a game changer. Rolled the pork with the melted cheese and the already good pork had salty, cheesy and creamy flavor. That was a pork symphony in my mouth.
The do have the salt and pepper one, but I didn't try that. I did try their sausage, gindara, squid and many more. The sausage was quite good but not really memorable. The gindara was quite fishy and the squid was a bit rubbery. Avoid the gindara and squid and you're all good.
The side dish, they do have lot of side dish. But, I'm a pork guy, I'd prefer eat pork rather than the side dish. So I only tried their honey glazed chicken (something like that, don't really remember the name), japchae and steamed egg. The chicken was good, tender and sweet. The japchae was clearly above the average. And the steamed egg was fluffy, a bit too salty for my tongue but still good. But, why do I eat the side dish if I can have a free flow pork belly 😈. It's my biggest guilty pleasure.Menu yang dipesan: Buffet, Mozzarella Cheese

5.0Porto Bistreau [ Slipi, Barat ]
This salad shocked me so much
Watermelon Red Salad. The perfect twist of sweet and savory salad filled with organic lettuces, tuna, roasted sunflower seeds and pomelo. What an unique gimmick. The used watermelon as a cup to hold the salad. It gave a super tempting effect to my eyes. I must say that the salad was super refreshing. The watermelon was super crunch and juicy and sweet. The tuna was kinda meaty and quite generous. The greenies itself was sour and creamy and peanuty from the dressing. I could taste balsamic vinegar and some mayonnaise and goma sauce (I asked the waiter and he said that they ain't use goma sauce, how come I tasted one. Was I deceived by my own tongue?) I ain't salad kind of guy but I'm 100% sure that this salad was a really good one. (Judging from the amount of dressing they used, it's not really healthy but still the taste was superb)

3.0Pokey Studio [ Senopati, Hawaii ]
Not the best poke bowl but still okey
Power Pokey. Tomatoes, tobiko, cucumber, wakame, edamame, spring mix (aka greenies), rice and salmon and tuna (can be cooked or raw. Me? Raw obviously). The dressing was more on the creamy side, good but not great. The tomatoes, cucumber and wakame held a really important role. They gave refreshing factor and crunchy texture. The tobiko was not that fishy but they just used small amount of that goodness. The salmon was good, juicy and sweet. But the highlight for me was clearly the tuna. Normally I'd prefer salmon rather than tuna but not this time. The tuna was great. A bit meaty texture, sweet and lean and a bit bouncy. However, the greenies was a little too much for me, the ratio between the topping and the greenies was a little off.
Btw, if you look closely you'll find bottled beverages from fruitify. I tasted the infused water one. Strawberry, cucumber, lemon and mint leaves. It tasted like water with slightly sweet after taste from the fruit and cooling sensation from the mint leaves.Menu yang dipesan: power pokey

2.4Vilo Gelato [ Green Ville, Es Krim ]
It's all about preferences, but for me this one is way too far from my taste
Jasmine Cheese Tea. Looks good and refreshing right? It's deceiving. The tea was sweet and had no fragrant at all. The cheese foam was super milky, super sweet and super thick. I know it's all about preferences, no offense but for me this one is easily one of the worst cheese tea I've ever tried. The milkiness just didn't work on my taste. You don't have to agree with me. I encourage you to try. The place was small but cozy and may be it's your preferences.
Ps : their peanut gelato was quite good.Menu yang dipesan: JASMINE CHEESE TEA

4.0Remboelan [ Senayan, Indonesia ]
Still my fav place to eat Indonesian food
Nasi Bakul Alit Tongkol Asap Garo Rica Malalayang. Rice topped with smoked tongkol (can anyone tell me the english for tongkol), stink beans and chili. The smoked tongkol was good, rich in herbs and flaky. It's been a while since I ate that. The chili was more like garnish, it had no kick at all. To be honest, I like that menu and the stink beans here was really stinks. I mean in a good way. I may not looked like one, but yeah, I do enjoy stink beans and dogfruit aka jengkol.
Ps : I tried this when remboelan had festival kartini menu. So I ain't sure about the availability of this menu. If can't find this one, I strongly recommend their Nasi Bakar Ayam Asap.Menu yang dipesan: Nasi Bakul Alit Tongkol Asap Garo Rica Malalayang

3.2Kafilifti [ Grogol, Minuman ]
Not your ordinary coffee taste
Original Coffee. I tried their original coffee and the ovaltine (coffee leaf) tea. First, the ovaltine was good. Not to sweet and yeah, tasted like ovaltine. The one that I wanna share with yall is the the original coffee. It's super light and just slightly slightly bitter. I almost thought I was drinking a cold brew. If you want to sip a light coffee with affordable price, this is what you need.

3.6Marco by Chef Marco Lim [ SCBD, Indonesia ]
Obviously way more pricey than your ordinary padang
Barramundi Panggang Pacak. Grilled barramundi fish marinated in coconut milk, finely ground curly red chili, slices of turmeric leaf, lemongrass, tamarind, lime leaf and lime juice. It's something that I've never seen in any padang restaurant. The sauce might look red, but relax, I barely tasted the heat. It's rich in spices and it gave full pack of flavor. The texture of the fish was very very clean and soft and the fish had nice charred aroma to it. They also gave a fresh lime, I strongly recommend you to use it. It'll bring a nice zestiness to the fish and remove the fishy flavor at the same time. I gotta say, this was extraordinary.

3.6Da Yung's Tea [ Pluit, Bubble Tea ]
Healthy juice with reasonable price
Sirsak Smoothie. I really think I need to eat and drink a lil healthier. Stop eating fatty thing seems hard, why don't I start with an easier one. Stop starbucks and drink juices instead. The soursop tasted nice sweet and sour and refreshing, sadly they didn't put some nice chunky soursop meat to give more texture and something to chew. Originally I ordered one with basil seed and I paid for that. Somehow, the chasier told me that the basil seed wasn't ready after that, why didn't you tell me before I paid that? So I told them to change it into aloe vera. Then she told that the price of aloe vera is 2K higher than basil seed. I said nothing and paid the extra 2K. My question is, REALLY? you still charged me the 2K after all the commotion thing? Why don't you just give it as complimentary? Well, it's not really a matter thing but you really need to let them make small judgment call like this. Despite that, I did enjoy my visit.
