Interior restoran ini memang cantik dan fancy. Dengan jalanan menanjak spiral menuju lantai 2 menjorok ke depan, mencolok sekali dilihat dari jalanan. Di tengah-tengah spiral tersebut, ada sebatang pohon kluwih yang besar dan lebat yang entah sudah berapa lama umurnya. Kluwih sendiri adalah buah yang jenis dan rasanya mirip nangka.
Variasi menunya ada banyak makanan sunda, most of it were under 50k. Harganya semua masi affordable. Untuk rasa, unfortunately I can't really tell since I only order their drinks. But, it smells yummy tho'. Especially the pete balado, yum!
Saya pesen es timun, yang isinya shreded cucumber in lime water. Seger sih airnya asem-asem, trus timunnya krenyes-krenyes. Enak juga sih, tapi saya lebih prefernya es mangga. Mangganya kaya yang ada di manisan bogor.
Service was good, food came out pretty quick. I really like how they set the naturan and foresty ambience. The wind at night was quite windy, enak buat kongkow di balkon, duduk sambil ngobrol. Would definitely come back to try their food next time.

Pada hari sabtu yang biasa, berangkatlah seorang anak serpong ke bogor buat kulineran. Astagaaa jauh banget serpong-bogor. First stop, saya mampir ke Pajajaran Tomyum. First impression, just like any restaurant di Bogor restoran ini tidak menggunakan AC dan mengandalkan angin bogor. Tapi memang untuk suasananya lagi adem, jadi walaupun ngga ada AC gabakal kepanasan juga.
Tom Yum Steamboat (255k)

Karena nama restorannya aja ada tomyum nya, ya so pasti harus nyobain. Akhirnya pesen aja langsung yang steamboat, ukurannya gede bisa buat sharing 5-6 orang. Jadi, isian tomyum nya kita masukin sendiri. Dan isiannya juga banyak. Ada kepiting, udang, fillet ikan, kerang, cumi, jamur kancing dan sayuran seperti pakchoy, sawi putih, dan wortel. Menurut saya, rasanya enak asem asem pedes seger. Tapi pacar saya bilang rasanya anyep, dia harus tambahin kecap asin biar lebih asin rasanya. Balik ke selera masing-masing sih. Untuk isiannya enak-enak semua. Saya puas banget makan kerangnya, sedangkan si pacar bilang kepitingnya enak.
Ayam Goreng Pandan (55k)

Menu wajib pesanan si pacar. Ukuran ayamnya lumayan gede, dan menurut saya rasanya enaaak! Dagingnya empuk dan juicy. I have to admit sih memang lumayan berminyak. Sayangnya, saos pelengkapnya hanya kecap manis. Harusnya kan ada saos khususnya tuh. Tapi tetep sih saya suka rasanya.
Tutty Fruity Punch (65k)

Ini seger dan enak bangettt, ada sodanya juga. Buah-buahannya banyak dan fresh.
Es Merah Delima

Yay dapet compliment dessert! Saya suka banget sama teksturnya yang krenyes-krenyes. I really appriciate this kind of services.
We spend around 500k for the 5 of us. It's actually kinda oke-ish since we eat until full. The quality of the food was satisfying but then again, would I travel all the way to Bogor for tomyum? I don't think so, jauh banget shaaay :(

Was such a fan for their Bebek Bakar. This time, I decide to order their Crispy Fried Duck (119k). Staff welcomed us well, we were seated in sofa area which quite comfortable for chillin'. The chilly platter was served first to table, followed by the Crispy Fried Duck just after 10minutes interval. Quick service leh.
Duck size was ofcourse huge enough to feed 2 tummy, but for those who have big appetite then don't hesitate to order 1 portion for yourself. There were 3 types of chilly provided which is sambal matah, sambel rawit, dan sambal goreng (didn't know the exact name). ALL were good, spicy, and hooot. Compliment the duck really well.
But, still tho' I rather order Bebek Bakar since it is have more flavor and juicy meat. But, my boyfie prefer the crispy one for its 'garing banget' texture. For drinks, we tried Wild Kiwi (45k), which was refreshing. It contain crushed kiwi, green apple cubes, in sparkling soda.
One small thing that I found missing is the 'Bali Thingy'. Something about it making it ambience making it less 'bali'. Probably they didn't play the Bali Music like the LW branch did. I personally prefer to dine in BTS Living World for a better ambience.

Starbucks cabang ini selalu ramai dengan orang-orang kantoran yang memilih untuk kerja di sini karena lokasinya yang pewe dan dekat kantoran. Mampir ke sini jam 8 pagi sebelom kantor buat grab some snacks and drink.
I tried the new seasonal menu Strawberry Coconut Frappuchino. It consist of real strawberry puree, coconut frapp, whipped cream and coconut flake. Rasa kelapanya cukup kuat,  strawberrynya yang asem dan seger balance the sweet taste of coconut frapp. And the coconut flake add the crunchy texture. Enak sih, tapi lebih suka dulu pernah ada rasa seasonal strawberry cheesecake. Bedanya di frappnya rasa vanilla.
Untuk makanannya saya pesen Peanut Butter Panini (22k) karena saya peanut butter garis keras. Pas pesen, udah diangetin. Tapi karena baru sempet makan pas siang, jadi udah dingin lagi panini nya. Still good tho'.
Service was good and fast. Ambience was really calmy and cold. Comfortable for those who seek tranquility.

Recently, Caffe Milano just anounce their new menu  consist of pasta, pizza, and dessert. And I was very lucky to got a chance to try their new menu with other foodies. Upon entering the restaurant, the yellow canopy was definetely give a very strong first impression. The yellow canopy was choosen to give a vibrant, happy, and delightful ambience to it but turn out to affecting the photo lighting... a lot (everything turn to yellow).
We were first served with 2 kind of salad which is House Special Salad and Caesar Salad. There was plenty of cheese slice and crouton on top of Caesar Salad. Lettuce was crunchy and fresh, just the way I like it. Didn't got a chance to try the other one, but it look more colorful from more vegetable variance.
The course continued with Chicken Croquette, 3 piece of croquette served on a bed of tomato sauce and salad. First bite into it was mind blowing, it was creamy, milky, and cheesy at the right amount. I'm diggin' it! Fried perfectly without leaving oily after-taste.
We then continued to a performance by the waitress. A big parmesan cheese wheel was present, the waitress put the hot risotto on top of it and stir the risotto inside the parmesan wheel. Saw this a lot in instagram, it was interesting to see how the cheese stick to the hot risotto and enchance the overall taste. There are some other pasta option too that you can try from the parmesan-wheel-series. I also tried the Tagliatelle and Pesto Spagetti, but I like the Risotto the most.
Before they serve the next course, a plate of fried seafood was served. This is one of the seasonal menu they have currently, consist of 3 big piecemof fried prawn, with fried calamary, fried small fish (which unfortunately I don't know what exactly), and fried vege. I don't really ate prawn, but the calamary was tender. Chef squished the lemon for us, and make it taste even better with that tangy taste.
Moving on to next course, 3 kind of Pizza was served. Start from Hawaian Pizza, which I really like since I find the combinantion of pineapple + pizza is heaven match. Meat Lover, contain a lot of ham on top of it. And the main star Truffle Pizza, omg I'm drooling. Unlike any other pizza, they use creamy spinach instead of regular tomato sauce. Then they put truffle on top and poached egg in the center. It taste gooooood. I'm not a fan of strong truffle smell, so this menu fit me.
We ended our meal with 2 dessert, Expresso Creme Brulee and Lemon Meringue Cake. Since I don't drink or eat coffee based food, I will skip the Expresso. The Lemon Meringue Cake was unique, get yourself a little of cake, meringue, and raspberry sauce, then you'll set for it. It taste sweet and sour. It was a perfect ending for the lunch.
I order Vanilla Sesame Milkshake, and I'm totally loving it. Vanilla taste was strong enough with a subtle taste of sesame and some real sesame seed in it. Unique but worth to try.
Service was excellent as well, will comeback for their Chicken Croquette and Truffle Pizza!

Order their fish&chip by go-food. Ngga lama, udah sampe fish and chip nya masih hangat fresh from the pan. Untuk pilihan batter ada 2, yang biasa dan new. Since the word "new" always sound more interesting, we order both with new batter option.
Swiss Fish and Chip

Pas buka kotaknya, ternyata untuk take away fish nya dipotong jadi 3 bagian. It looks like nuggets at first, tapi dalemnya tetep pure ikan dory kok. Mac and cheese nya di masukin ke plastik terpisah, yang akhirnya bikin porsi mac & cheese nya dikit (banget). Dan mac and cheesenya kering banget, dan rasanya kejunya too artificial. Kaya those bottled cheese sauce u can find in minimarket. Fish meat wise, cukup enak dan fresh. Batter nya lebih tebal dan terlalu tepung-y.
Amsterdam Fish and Chip

Liat dari fotonya kaya di dalemnya ada keju juga yang ternyata cuman drizzle saos keju aja di atasnya. Once again I think the cheese sauce taste too artificial.
We ended up regret our decision to order the new batter, bcs it seems like the original batter will taste better. However, their fries was on point. Price was also really affordable. Will probably come back to try other menu.

Yay cabang baru nya buka di daerah tangsel. Dateng pas hari jumat malem, as expected udah rame dan harus masuk waiting list. Lantai 1 nya dibagi 2 area indoor dan outdoor. Bagian indoornya agak sempit, karena 3/4 nya open kitchen. Lebih mengakomodasi di bagian outdoor. Ngga sempet cek di lantai 2 sih, tapi katanya full AC dan lebih dingin. Karena indoor yang di lantai 1 panas, karena panasnya uap air.
Cukup 5menit, sudah dapat meja di indoor. Langsung aja pesen baksonya:
Bakso Super Keju

Consist of  1 big meatball, and  2 small meatballs, with bihun, mie kuning, dan sayur. Kuah nya enak, walaupun blom ditambahin apa2. Pas di belah, keliatan banyak juga kejunya dan melting gitu. Hmm, tempting. Sambelnya pedes nendang. Enak dan puas.
Bakso Super Mozzarela

Sama seperti yang keju, ada 1 bakso besar dan 2 bakso kecil yang halus. In my opinion, yang keju isinya lebih banyak dibandingkan yang mozzarela. Dan lebih suka yang keju, lebih berasa asin gitu.
Tetelan Wagyu

Ngga begitu banyak isi tetelannya, tapi enak-enak sih. Paling enak yang urat-urat gitu. Kuahnya rasanya lebih manis dibandingkan yang kuah bakso.
Pesen cireng juga, tapi agak lama keluarnya so we finally decided to cancel the cireng :( Pelayanannya oke kok dan cukup cepat. Bakal dateng lagi? Pastiii, masi banyak menu yang menarik untuk dicoba.
