Tanamera di Gandaria ini sebelahan sama LetterD, tepatnya nempatin sisi kanan resto LetterD yang dulunya besar. Dengan lokasi tertutup pepohonan, signage Tanamera hanya terlihat kecil banget, agak susah kalo ga niat nyari. 
Pas mau masuk melewati zona outdoor yang adem & nyaman, pun di dalamnya agak gelap tapi tetap cozy. Setelah pesan hot latte di coffee counter, pesanan diantar ke meja, disusul Almond Croissant yang ternyata dihangatkan dulu makanya makan waktu agak lama. Lattenya as usual enak, agak strong tapi terasa earthy banget. Almond croissant gw pun enak, dalamnya lembut walau layernya gak terlalu banyak, dengan sirup almond & almond crunch di atasnya. Oke banget Tanamera sini!

Lokasi Fillmore ini agak terpencil, adanya di depan Suites Seven Casablanca yg masuknya harus belok2 gang kecil dulu. Tapi pas lihat depannya aja langsung terasa adem.. Dengan pohon rambat yg jatuh nutupin sebagian jendela coffeeshop, jendela besar, bangunan kayu.. Pas masuk langsung terasa suasana homey. Ada lantai 2 rooftop juga yg asik buat smokers.
Kesini pesen hot cafe latte, saat itu ada beans dari Rwanda. Kopinya earthy dengan sedikit nutty flavor, khas kopi tropis.
Super nyaman, walau agak kecil. Berasa ngopi di secret shop!

Sesuai password wifinya, Seriustapisantai, coffeeshop ini emang super pewe buat serius atau santai. Pas masuk langsung disuguhi atmosfer homey dengan pilihan bar, kursi personal, meja panjang reramean, sofa, atau garden space dengan kursi ala taman. Pun kemarin kesini pesen latte sambil ngesketsa emang ndukung banget suasananya~
Hot latte pesenan gw lumayan enak, agak mild & cenderung asam tapi ketemu gurihnya susu langsung mantap. Gak pesen makanan tapi mereka punya breakfast & lunch menu yang kayanya lumayan liat meja sebelah. Pasti balik lagi buat nongkrong asik!

I'm not a pro, but i love tea very much. So it's always a challenging process for me to choose the best tea flavor that can keep my mood & beat by the time i crave for ones. This one goes when i face many choices of tea, like served in Tea et al. It took me 10 mins only to find the best smell & taste of tea from their 20ish collections. Their tea came from many sources, which i guess mostly from Srilanka.
I came here unintentionally, but remember mba UrsAndNic review about this place. So i paid a visit while on Plaza Indonesia.  

Place is kinda small, looks like a tea-time-waiting because it's located in front of supermarket.
The waitress is actively offers tea sampling to customers & explain very well about the origin & the taste. So before i stepped in, i already taste their honeydew green tea & darjeeling. Honeydew green tea was gewwd, you can taste the sweet although it didn't have sugar in it. Darjeeling was ordinary, same like i taste before.
For the tea variety they have quite unique blend from Genmaicha, flower blend, fruits blend, Chinese tea, etc -with all those exotic names! Choco noir, L'Amour, frenzy berry.. Does that sound exotic enough in our ears? 

My choice was Scarlet rose. You know already what kind of blend it is. With green tea based, they mix rose & blue flower that give a bitter yet soo fragrance tea aroma.. And the taste dance in my mouth. I still remember how it smells at their first pour ?

Although it's a tea bag, the second pot still awesome as the first one. And the last cup had the depest taste. All served in a beautiful tea set that ? me. Small cookies come accompany. Oh, they have cake from Exquise Patisserie too, but i didn't taste because of my bad cough.
Overall, tea time at Tea et al was a lovely experience for my eyes! (and my tongue of course ?)

Walau ga niat beli Presotea, pas lewat liat ada promo earl grey milk tea 10k only. Langsung belilah! Harganya beneran pas 10k pula ga pake ppn segala. Toppingnya bisa pilih grass jelly atau bubble. Saat itu gw pake grass jelly biar lebih enak nyeruputnya. Ukurannya walau yg terkecil, masih kembung diminum sendirian. Dan untuk 10k only, rasanya tetep konsisten! Gw pesen less ice, normal sugar. Mix earl grey & susunya pas banget! Earl greynya kuat tapi gak lebay, ketemu gurihnya susu. My new favorite combination!

Outlet Dum-dum di Plangi ini nyempil di antara bubble drink lainnya & ada di depan AW lantai LG. Hanya outlet super kecil, kalo niat nyari baru nemu :D
Kemarin pesen Thai tea original, dengan less ice. Langsung diseduh cepat & bayar, lalu dikasih liat mau esnya seberapa banyak. Nah karena es yg gw minta dikit, walhasil minuman gw jadi dikit juga, hanya 3/4 gelas. Berarti berapapun esnya mereka punya standar kualitas sendiri cairan yg enak. Karena less ice, thai tea gw jadi cukup kental & sampe esnya mau abis masih terasa kuat paduan susu kental manis & thai teanya. Favorit banget nih minuman!
