Jadi kemaren aku dapet kupon dari PergiKuliner sebesar 50k untuk mencoba Fanda's favourite yang ada di Senopati ini. Di dalamnya terlihat seperti cafe dengan interior yang didominasi dengan warna putih dan hitam.

Salah satu highlight mereka terdapat pada mini cakes yang dipajang di dalam etalase dan juga gelato yang berasal dari merk Fiore. Aku mencoba gelato dengan ukuran small (2 rasa) dengan rasa coklat dan whiskey. Perpaduan es krimnya lembut dan manisnya pas di mulut dengan aftertaste alkohol karena adanya kandungan whiskey di dalam. Kemudian untuk kue, aku mencoba kue "Boss" yang memiliki tekstur seperti memakan Blackforest, cukup enak walaupun ujungnya akan terasa sedikit eneg.

Overall tempat ini sangat cocok untuk sekedar bersantai atau hangout, dengan makanan yang cukup enak dan harga yang terjangkau.

So, after having an ice cream and cake near Senopati area, I decided to give Sofia at The Gunawarman a try, because it's already near and people said it's famous.

It is located inside The Gunawarman Hotel, with a large and luxury touch like a British style interior with dominant Navy Blue color. Me and my partner ordered 1 pot of their Earl Grey Tea, a cheese doughnut, and a Nutella pastry.

All of it tasted good, but I noticed the Earl Grey has some sort of flowery aftertaste (like chrysanthemum) which I found it unusual. The service was nice, but there was a little accident that our server poured the tea too fast and it spilled onto the table, maybe just be careful next time. Overall it's all good, and I will come back to this place someday.

So I got a 100k voucher from Pacific Place Mall to visit Fook Yew. The interior is filled with dominant chinese ornament resembles a Shanghai old town. Ordered their Chicken and Shrimp Sheng Jian Bao, Fook Yew Fried Rice, and Mushroom custard bun.

Sheng Jian Bao is a steam fried dumpling filled with chicken and shrimp that is originated from city of Shanghai. When you give it a bite, the juice inside will explode right into your mouth similar to Xiao Long Bao (but thicker dough). 

Fook Yew fried rice is a Chinese style fried rice with salted egg, the portion was quite big (enough for 2 persons), and of course it was fragrant and delicious.

Mushroom Custard Bun is a sweet dessert with a Mushroom shape and custard filling. It tasted like eating a Mantao, with a sweet cream inside it, good enough.

Overall it tasted all good, and for 3 courses it only costed 130k which is pretty cheap and affordable for a good chinese food.  

That day when I heard about their opening promo, I quickly rushed there. For the whole month of September 2018,  Gelato will be sold for only 10k (1 flavour/cup), and the choices are limited each day and will be changed the very next day.

I tried their Coconut Gelato, which was really good because of its coconuty flavour and the amount of sweetness were just right. Next time, I'll bring my partner alongside with me since I really wanted to try their Limoncello flavoured Gelato ^^.

This time I brought my partner alongside with me, since the promo was still on. And lucky for me, the Gelato of The Day was the Limoncello one, alongside with Vanilla, and Rose as I remembered.

So of course I would choose the Limoncello one, while my partner chose the Vanilla one. And we both loved it, the Limoncello was so fresh with an alcoholic aftertaste since it was made using Limoncello, an Italian lemon liqueur. While the vanilla one was sweet and fragrant at the same time.

I would like to recommend this Gelato shop for anyone who loves sweet ice cream for their dessert, 

So today I got an invitation from my Japanese class to try Itacho Sushi. Ordered their Grilled Salmon with Tobiko Spicy Mayo set (served with Miso soup and salad), the rice they used is sushi rice which is sticky and delicate, with a half grilled fresh salmon combined with tobiko spicy mayo and sweet inari (tofu), I will say that this dish is a very good one.
Beside of that, they also give us a live sushi show in which they teach us how to make sushi by ourselves from salmon nigiri, tamagoyaki nigiri, and tobiko gunkan. They also give us a free flow ocha (hot/cold) and also free ice cream as dessert.
I tried some of my friend's dishes in which I find it good, although some of them are slightly underseasoned (need to put a little bit more salt) but is still forgiveable.
Overall today experience is good, with delicious dishes and live sushi show. Will try to come back someday to try the other dishes.

Mamma Rosy is a Italian restaurant located at Kemang area, providing an Italian home cooking. Went there on Saturday noon for lunch, the place was a little bit crowded. 

I ordered Vitello Tonnato which is a sliced veal coated in creamy tuna sauce accompanied with Torta Pasqualina (Spinach Cake) and Insalata Russa (Russian Salad), Also ordered their Fusilli Burro Crema alla Erbe which is a fusilli pasta cooked in herb butter cream sauce.

They also gave a complimentary welcome bread which is a sliced focaccia bread in a bread basket. 

All of the food was good, as I expected from an authentic Italian home cook restaurant. I also got a chance to meet Mamma herself and took a photo with her.

Got a 50k discount coupon from PergiKuliner, so I gave it a try. This cafe is located at Tribeca building, the one in front of Central Park mall irself. From outside, this cafe looked so cozy, the cafe itself isn't really spacious tho as it's quite narrow with a big tree in the middle of the cafe. They also have an outdoor area that looks cool for chilling and hangout.

Ordered their London Fog Croffles, which turned out to be really delicious. It consisted of 2 pieces of Croffles (Croissant Waffles), a scoop of vanilla ice cream, granola seed, a slice of fruit compote (I still wonder what fruit it was, was it a peach or persimmon?), and of course the London fog sauce which made from Earl Grey Tea combined with Maple syrup. It was so so good.

Also ordered their Chamomile Tea which they used JING brand as their choice of tea. As I expected, every tea from JING does give a smooth and calming sensation as it is light and fragrant at the same time.

Will come back to this cafe next time to try their other croffles (especially the savory one) :3
