Paradise Dynasty is one of the Chinese restaurant in Plaza Senayan. Located near XXI, this place is actually quite far away from the main enterance. I don't really go to this section of Plaza Senayan unless to go to the cinema.

This spacious restaurant was a tad bit crowded when I visited the place. Almost all of the customers were Chinese desecendant proving that their food is decent.

I had a large meal here a few days ago as a lot of the food they're offering were appetizing. I had their Lobak Goreng, Xiao Long Bao, Mapo and also Drunken Chicken. The Lobak Goreng and Mapo were the ones that impressed me the most.

The Lobak Goreng were actually encapsulated pastry like casing and tasted like savory bamboo shoots. Their Mapo was very fulfilling containing a generous amount of tofu and chicken. The savory taste and thick texture making the Mapo a great meal.

Shophaus Menteng is one of the best place to go if you want to have a great meal but you haven't decided what kind of meal to get. Shophaus is a collection of various restaurant with shared dining space. It has burgers, noodles, chicken wings, even gelato. It has also has outdoor sections in the ground and the second floor. Though it is quite spacious, Shophaus could get very crowded in peak hours.

I went here a few weeks ago, wanting to get a great dinner.The choices available overwhelms me as I wanted to try everything in Shophous. Alas, a man could only eat so much at a time so I decided to try Demie 69 which was located in the second floor.

I tried their Mie Karet Ayam Jamur and Liang Tea. The noodle was tasty. It was like if your typical 'mie ayam abang-abang' has managed to get a scholarship and passed its thesis defense with a great score. Definitely naik kelas.

This small coffee shop is located in the second floor of Eiger Store in Bandung, just across Plaza Ekalokasari.

Eiger Coffee has a cozy interior with an outdoor section overlooking the street. It has wooden tables, chairs and also wooden decoration.

I stopped by for a quick break while avoiding the rain. I had their Japanese brew with Aceh coffee beans.

The cozy atmosphere made this place a perfect pit stop before continuing your journey home.

Nyapii in Buah Batu is located in the premise of a much bigger restaurant selling grilled chicken. Nyapii is just one of the tenant in the complex, however what Nyapii offer is definitely worth to try.

I had my early dinner here today. I had their Paket Hemat Sambal Tempong and just because I was curious, I also had their Nyapi Wrap Sweet Cheese. Each of the food was a tasty treat! They definitely worth more than their price tag.

Nyapii Sambal Tempong consist of rumpu rampe, se'i sapi smothered with sambal tempong and a choice of rice or nasi jagung. The sambal tempong was a great condiment for the smoky beef. The nasi jagung gave the meal a unique twist as it tasted almost like butter rice but with an explosion of sweet corn in each other bite.

As for the Nyapi Wrap, I didn't expect that the savory se'i style slices of beef could go so well with sweet cheese. The crunchiness of the cabbage give the wrap an interesting texture on top of the tasty kebab!

Bangor Burger is a burger shack located just in front of Stasiun Bandung. It has a cozy dining place so it's ideal place to wait for your train or a place to grab a quick bite after your long train ride. It used to be a coffee shop, but burger shack is even better!

Burger shack is offering burgers in a very reasonable price. I could say that their burgers are very cheap. However, the way the present their burgers in the menu could spark expectations their burgers couldn't filfill.

I had their Sultan Burger Combo. Sultan Burger is basically a triple-stacked-patties burger with chesse, tomatoes and lettuce. It taste decent and more like a burger that you make at home but with store bought patties. Their fries were a tad bit too salty. Overall it was a decent meal, though it was nothing special (which is not what they are offering considering the low price of the burgers.)

Lisung Resto is a cozy resto to linger around located in Dago Pakar. It offers the beautiful horizon city view of Bandung and serenity. At night, you can hear cicadas and see the stars.

I went here yesterday, expecting just to enjoy lingering around. Aside from the scenic view, they're offering, the food was also great.

I had their Ayam Kecombrang with Pucuk Labu, Tahu Rawit and a drink called Nice Dream. Ayam Kecombrang was great, the Pucuk Labu part which was the vegetables compliment the savory taste of the chicken well. Tahu Rawit was also a great snack, though a tad bit too salty, its spicy and crunchy texture made it a great food to munch on while waiting for the main course.

Smaklek is a cute joint along the way to Kemang. Though they're selling Dutch food, I guarantee it's not the one you have in you mind right now. It's not poffertjes or bitterballen but Kapsalon, a kebab deconstructed. It's Dutch street food, though I believe it has middle eastern origin.

I had their regular size a few weeks ago. What came was a jumble of delicious food which consisted of a layer of french fries, beef, lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, and garlic sauce.

It tasted great! The perfect hangover food which has a crunchy texture from the vegetables, savory taste from the beef, fries, cheese and garlic sauce. Definitely a mash of taste to confuse your tastebuds.

This humle burger joint could hook you up with the best burger in Bogor! They offer burgers so thick you'll get confused on how to consume them!

This joint is located in Jalan Merak, Tanah Sareal, Bogor. Compared to its other branch in Bogor, the place is way way more decent while still offering the same killer burgers!

I had their Large Brisket Burger with french fries on the side. I had to say that the additional fries were an overkill as it made me too full after eating, too full but very satisfied!

The Brisket Burger was a thick burger containing slices of smoked beef, squished between patties and lettuce. It was just sooooo tasty!

A premium burger indeed.

- Cheers!
