    Pardon My French [ Menteng, Perancis,Jepang ]

    Great cafe but the beverage is a total turn off

    Matcha Cube Latte. The idea was good. They use matcha as the ice instead of water, so even the ice melted, the taste won't change. However, the matcha itself wasn't strong enough. The milk was super milky and sweet. Not for my taste obviously. To be frank, I couldn't finish it. But, it's instagramable. So if you have no problem with sweet and milky taste, I'd say it's your thing. When I see something like this, my mind always goes to Pancious's Earl Grey Milk Tea. I know it's different flavor and incomparable. But it is how it is, I just can't help it.

    Marco by Chef Marco Lim [ SCBD, Indonesia ]

    Tasty but pricey

    Nasi Paru Rendang. Beef lung cooked with banana in rendang style served with solok rice. First you must know that it's not fried rice. It's solok rice mixed with rendang sauce. It's good but if you compare it with street padang, it's not even close. The rendang here was more subtle and gentle. It's tasty but it missed that bomb of flavor in my mouth. 

    The lung was good. Crunchy but not as crunchy as cracker. Still had that lil chewy side which was dope for me and the most important thing, no irony or innard taste to it. The highlight for me was the rice. Yes, the plain rice. Obviously without the rendang sauce, it tasted plain. But the texture was super good. It's not sticky at all. You can easily seperate every single grain. Bet it's gonna be a perfect type of rice to be used in fried rice.

    Evlogia Cafe & Co [ Senopati, Kafe ]

    Great small coffee shop in Jakarta Barat

    Kopi Miruku. Coffee with milk and they used palm sugar instead of regular white sugar. It gave a distinctive flavor which I personally don't like. But, it's quite common actually. Lot of coffee houses use palm sugar instead of white sugar. 

    Cold Brew. Usually I'd choose the black one, but somehow I bought the white one. A little milk won't hurt me right? It's always fun to drink cold brew. Less acidity and full body yet very light.

    Taropresso. It's like latte with taro flavor.
    The taro flavor was not that strong. It's more like a little hint of taro flavor after taste. I did ask for less sugar and they really gave me less sugar coffee. Not too sweet, just right amount of bitterness, creamy and taro flavor to end it all. I'd love to give this one a shout out.

    Take a pause everyday and count your blessings. What a nice quote btw.

    Wake Cup Coffee [ Gambir, Kafe ]

    super cozy place to hang

    I must say it's a light kind of espresso. Not too bitter and not too thick. Perfect for late night coffee-boost. Ps : the ambiance is good. I mean, I never thought there's place like this around here. Super cozy to hang with your friends.

    Ropang Hey Hey! [ Cengkareng, Indonesia ]

    truffle noodle? why not.

    Halloween edition. Black noodle topped with ayam geprek (I don't know what you called that in english. Smashed chicken? 🤣), chili and truffle oil. The ayam geprek was good, crunchy and moist at the same time. If you like truffle then this dish is perfect. It just hits you with all the fragrances.

    Lewis & Carroll Tea [ Thamrin, Kafe ]

    Small yet comfy cafe with passable dish

    Aglio olio with fresh sauteed tiger prawn, pan fried norwegian salmon, australian tenderloin steak, crusted grilled chicken, mesclun salad and potato wedges.

    The portion was big enough to share. I was quite surprised that almost everything tasted good. Normally on platter like this, only 1 or 2 things taste good. The aglio olio was bit salty but still satisfying. The steak was superb, asked for medium rare and they served me medium rare. How cool was that. The potato wedges and crusted grilled chicken were also good. Somehow the most anticipating components (the prawn and the salmon) were my least favourite. The salmon was completely overcooked and the prawn was meh. Soggy and barely sweet.

    Overall, still enjoyed the platter.

    Khung Bar & Restaurant [ Thamrin, Lounge ]

    tasty tom yum broth with generous filling

    Prawn, fish, squid, mussel and mushroom in fresh, sour and spicy broth. I gotta say, it had so much richness flavor from the broth itself. I just can't take a proper photo out of it, but believe me, the taste was superb. I got a full spectrum of flavors. Salty, bitter, sour, sweet and spicy.

    Generous filling. Unlike others thai restaurant, they really put lots of filling inside. And they really use prawns for that Tom Yum Khung. Some restaurant use shrimp instead of prawn, and they claim that they use prawn on the menu book. 1 more thing, I liked the way they cooked the mussel. The mussel left a slightly bitter after-taste on my tongue.

    There's a lot of thai restaurant and what's really special about this place is the ambiance is exquisite, super friendly service and obviously the food itself taste superb.

    Khung Bar & Restaurant [ Thamrin, Lounge ]

    sorry but this pad thai let you down

    Stirfry thai rice noddle. The taste was not that authentic. I did feel like eating kwetiau. Yeah, they did give beansprout, peanuts and lime. But for some reason I did not feel like eating pad thai. Don't get me wrong, it tasted good. However, I still don't think I would like to pay that much just to eat fried 'kwetiau'. They served the lobster tail marvellously. Unfortunately, I just don't like lobster. No matter how you cook it, it's gonna be the same old taste for me. If I know I ain't gonna like it, why bother to try.

    Gaya Gelato [ Pantai Indah Kapuk, Es Krim ]

    just another gelato shop to choose from

    Nice shop with cozy ambiance, good place to chill. Tried some flavors before I finally decided to choose dark choco and coffee flavor. It's not bad actually. But for my taste, it's just too sweet and too milky. And I always put Grom as comparison everytime I eat gelato. Up till now, nothing can beat it.

    like the branch, not this menu

    Grilled salmon bowl with mozzarella cheese and mentai sauce. They used sushi rice instead of normal rice. If you like cheese then you gonna love this. Cheesy and super creamy from the mentai. But personally, I do prefer their atlantis. Super gewd.
