A cute coffee shop in the same floor as its sister, Midore Japanese Restaurant and Bersih Sehat. Midori Coffee has cozy interior with wooden floor, tables and chairs. A nice place to linger around enjoying a lazy day.

Midori Coffew coffee offers mainly coffee, tea and pastry. I had their Royal Milk Tea and croffle.

The Royal Milk Tea has the perfect balance of creaminess, sweetness and the taste of the tea. The sweet croffle was the perfect companion.

- Cheers!

Hey #Tastebuddies!

Middle Eastern delicacy is something close to my heart. Upon learning that Cipete has D'Izgara that offers AYCE Middle Eastern style bbq with terra cota grill and charcoal, I just had to visit and unleash the carnivorous beast within.

D'Izgara is one of those ayce restaurant that's worth more than it's charging. All of the package they offer comes with the option to pick up various selection of Middle Eastern appetizers and deserts from the buffet. Though they are very tempting, don't let them distract you from the main purpose of your visit! (Though, I recommend you to try their sambosas and their egg dish. To note that they also have coffee machine!)

Bon(d) had their regular package which protein consist of marinated chicken, blackpepper beef, meltique beef, and Moroccan spice beef.

The grilling process was just enjoyable. The heat and meat met causing that satisfying crackling and sizzling sounds.

In the taste department, D'izgara is also winning. Their meat is just the best! Definitely worth another visit!

Remboelan is one of the best place to go for upscale Indonesian cuisine. Their restaurant is very decent yet the food is still offered in the affordable price range.

Their interior which were mostly made of wood gave a fancy atmosphere. Wooden ornaments on the wall also reinforce the vibe.

They offer various Indonesian delicacy such as Soto Betawi, Sate, Nasi Goreng Jawa and many others. The variety of the menu they offer will give you a decision fatique, but don't worry though as all of the food they offer are delicious.

Remboelan also had options to replace rice with shirataki. For those who are cautious of their calories intake, this will make your lunch felt less sinful!

I had their Nasi Goreng Shirataki which tasted great. Definitely deserve another visit.

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.

Hey #Tastebuddies!

The City that is always raining, Bogor is never short of great coffee shops or restaurants to visit. This time, I visited @raindearcoffee which was located in Bogor Timur, just next to the toll road.

Rain Dear offers a lot of interesting that connects with the local taste, such as colenak and tahu gejrot. For the main course the offer delicious western food such as pasta and steaks.

My favorite menu however is their dessert which was presented in the form of a cute puppy, the Puppy Chocolate Mousse. Don't let the adorable form this dessert took distract you from its sweet chocolatey taste. Scoop its head and you'll want to taste the sweetness of the rest of its body!

- Cheers!

Sir Loin is one of those restaurant in Jakarta bearing an elegant industrialist theme. The spacious restaurant with an ample amount of wooden tables and minimalistic chairs gave an aesthetic vibe. It also has a witty name, perfect for a restaurant with steaks as their speciality.

Bon(d) went to this place a couple of weeks ago for a lunch. We were craving for steaks and was interested with this place's reviews. Though Jalan Bumi is home to a lot of interesting restaurant, Sir Loin is among those you must visit!

Bon(d) had one of their shared steak selection which was drizzled in sizzling butter when it arrived in our table. It was priced by 100 gr, however the cut that came to us was enough for two which was probably around 400 gr. We also ordered their creamy spinach and mushroom sauce on the side and truffle chicken bites for appetizer.

The steak was great! They nailed the medium doneness of the steak. They managed to seared the crust on the outside with juicy inside. The sizzling butter increased the "smoothness" of the steak itself. The creamy spinach deserved a standing ovation on its own, the savory taste of the sauce definitely has made that lunch a better one!

Vilo Gelato in Gandaria is one of the best place to look for gelatos with exciting flavours!

Their restaurant is beautiful with an aesthetic glass house portion on the front. They have a second floor and a spacious outdoor session.

Upon entering the restaurant, you will be greeted with a large refridgerator in which you can peer down and choose your flavour of gelato. They have the standard fruit flavor up to Baileys and Kahlua.

I chose their Bailey's Salted Caramel and a Smoke Beef and Cheese Croissant for breakfast.

The gelato was smooth and did justice donning the brand "Bailey's". Though it didn't take me sky high, having "Bailey's" flavoured gelato in the morning will definitely set a good mood throughout the day.

- Cheers!

The Front Room is what happened when you combine great ambiance, superb hospitality, delicious food and luxury into one. This restaurant has a homey decor and fast internet. It is also spacious so it would be a great candidate to work from if you're bored doing things at home.

We had their Chicken Over Garlic Rice and Quesadilla. The chicken was tender, the Quesadilla was savory and great.

Overall, the Front Room's great vibe and hospitality will definitely make you return for another meal!

Saturdays is a cute coffee shop with a lot of pastel colours for their interior. It is located in Grand Indonesia next to a big glass windows from which you can practice "people watching". It is actually has become my favorite spot from all of Grand Indonesia.

They mainly offer snacks such as cookies along with tea and coffee.

I had their package of Earl Grey Latte with a large cookie. The Earl Grey Latte was perfect. The right amount of sweetness and creaminess. The cookie was chewy, a perfect companion for a slow day.

- Cheers!
