    Nanny's Pavillon [ Alam Sutera, Barat,Italia ]

    Al dente!

    Nanny's pasta bisa dibilang salah satu pasta yang saya suka! Pastanya aldente, toppingsnya tidak berlebihan, ayamnya lembut dan garing dan tasty, dan krimnya thick enough tapi gak bikin eneg. Disini pelayanannya juga bagus dan tempatnya juga lucu seperti di barn :)

    Menu yang dipesan: fetucinne

    Harga per orang: Rp. 50.000 - Rp. 100.000

    Six Degrees [ Alam Sutera, Kafe ]

    Strong Coffee!

    Saya kesini nyobain kopinya, wah super strong sekali ini kopi. Saya sebenernya ga ada masalah kalau kopinya strong yah, kalau ada creamernya dan ditambah gula, strong coffee is actually really delightful, cuma yang ini agak asam :( jadi kalo dicampur gula atau creamer, rasanya udah ga keruan. Cuma efeknya sih betul2 kerasa ya, langsung melek seharian :)

    TRUE HIDDEN GEM

    I must admit, finding this place was one of my most pleasant experience I've ever had in my culinary life. We arrived at one part of the hotel, and asked where was this Porte located. The bellboy told us it's on the other side of the hotel. They had few golf cars, really nice condition, ready to take us there. The driver was a nice young woman, dressed in white. Hmm. Pretty good service.

    When I first arrived there, I thought, this was certainly not a 4 or 5 star hotel. But the restaurant was indeed nice! Oh, so this is where I start the review about the restaurant :)


    AMBIENCE:

    The place got jazzy-lounge ambience. Dimmed light, cozy furniture, modern lamp, and jazzy music. All was neat and tidy, and the music added a class to its ambience.



    FOOD:

    [Gai Ping Rp.45.000]

    Those grilling sound it made was just wonderful. The presentation of the food, already caught my eyes. This very first food I ordered here, brought a pleasant joy. I thought, oh maybe it was just the look. So I gave it a try. And boy, it was amazing! Juicy, tasty chicken dipped in amazing sour-spicy sauce! And the best part was that the chicken has never been cold since the cute cubical grill was still on even until the very end.



    [Kway Pad Kee Mao - Gai Rp.55.000]

    This was like a kwetiau. They put in their description as a spicy, fried drunken noodles. We chose chicken, in Thai is called Gai. They had 3 seasonings to accompanied this dish: some kind of vinegar and chili, chili powder, and sugar! I mixed every bit of all into the dish and landedy first bite. Oh my God! Foodgasm. The sour, the sweet, spice, all just danced so well with the tasty Kway Pad. I was enjoying this food while by bf said that he's too having a really great time with his dish. After eating half, we exchanged our food. Oh, any they gave a really generous portion for this one so don't worry coming here with an empty stomach.


    [Khao Pad Tom Yum Rp.70.000]

    This is a Tom Yum Fried Rice. They gave some kind of vinegar with green pepper / chili for the sauce. Another one to enhance the sour. I love sour food so I definitely loving this. Oh anyway, if you don't like sour food then maybe you just try the Gai Ping, if you wanna try something not too sour, or their mango sticky rice. Since any other Thai food here were probably sour. But in a great way!! The fried rice was just amazing! Tom yum taste, nice and gigantic portion too! So basically, when I went to a nice restaurant with this price range, if I already found that their place was nice, their food was incredibly delicious, I mostly got a regular or small portion. But this restaurant just got it all. The generous portion? The amazing taste, pleasant place, really good service too (later I'll write more about this). Me and my bf was just so very full adter eating 3/4 of our dishes. We still got dessert! I told my bf, this place kept surprising me, if their dessert is delicious, I'll definitely give 5 on my rating. (Whoops, spoiled the ending :p)



    [Khao Niao Mamuang Rp.45.000]

    Dessert. The tie breaker. Mango sticky rice. Last time I tried this kind of dessert in Indonesian restaurant which specialized in Thai food, the taste was absolutely not yummy. So much different than the one that I had in Thailand. So I lost a little hope on good mango sticky rice in here. But when I saw the presentation of this dessert, I gained a little bit of hope. Hmm, this looks yummy. I gave it a try. And again, oh. My. God. Amazing!!! The sticky rice was so gooey in a good way, the coconut milk was high quality, so thick and smooth and delicious, and the mango was fresh. Altogether they and I had my last foodgasm here. God. Just. Godddd thank Goddd you created a human that could made this heaven's food be tasted in my very tounge. I just. Can't just. Ahh.



    [FM7 Cooler Rp.34.000]

    Peach syrup, passion fruit syrup, orange juice and soda water, plus cherry on top. Refreshing! Sweet and sour, but a little hard to slurp with little straw since there's quite a lot of passion fruit inside.



    SERVICE:
    What a lovely waitress and waiter they had! They were polite, responsive, and so nice. They cleared up the plate without being asked, offered to bring out the dessert after seeing us slowing down eating, and almost finished our main dishes, and fulfill our request fast and politely.



    What a little hidden gem, this restaurant is! In the midst of nowhere, you'll never think that you could find such a nice restaurant, with amazing ambience, food (taste, presentation and portion), and service. Having such a wonderful time here. Definitely will recommend this to anyone I've known, and will be back soon <3

    Shihlin [ Gading Serpong, Snack ]

    AWESOME FRIED MUSHROOM!

    Shihlin ada menu baru sekarang! They now serve you ... *drumroll* Fried Mushrooms! Kemarin saya nyoba menu baru ini. Ya seperti jamur goreng biasa. Jamurnya jamur enoki, jadi bukan seperti popcorn mushroom gitu, saya pertamanya kira mushroomnya yang seperti popcorn pakai portobello.



    Begitu pesanan selesai, wah porsinya banyak ya! 25ribu rupiah, dapet lumayan banyak, dan bumbunya juga meresap. Minyaknya sih masih kerasa, cuma yang bikin enak ya tepungnya setelah dimasak garing sekali, dan garingnya tahan lama, tidak benyek2, rasanya pedas asin. Makannya juga cukup mudah.

    Thai Alley [ Gading Serpong, Thailand ]

    Pricey but Yummy, and Best Service.

    I always love Thailand food. Sour and tasty was just two of my favorite flavor of taste. We were served by the best waitress. She was so suggestive, friendly, cheerful, and had lot of product knowledge. This restaurant was very lucky to have her as their waitress. We tried several of their menus as follows:



    [Khao Pad Sapparod Rp.59.000]

    Nasi Nanas, topped with cashews, chicken, and herbs. The rice was smooth and fragrant, the toppings were yummy too.


    [Pad Kaprao Gai Rp.49.000]

    Chopped chicken with basil. The minced chicken was covered in brown sweet soy sauce, thus, made them looked like tempe. But when you ate them, oh, it's chicken! It was tasty, colorful flavor, and I just love how the basil play some role in its taste. You could really taste them. Salty and tasty basil-y chicken.


    [Tom Yam Praw Oon Rp.139.000]

    This was a tom yum on a coconut shell. The waitress insisted we had to try this. It was indeed very tasty. One of its strongest point would be its zesty-and-spicy taste, it's not only a very delicious soup, but also presented so beautifully on a coconut shell. One and only flaw was that there's just not enough seafood inside for us to be eaten. They need to put more mushroom, seafood, or chicken inside that's edible. They focused too much on its broth and looks (which they succeeded, I had to admit), but forgetting the fact that this dishes were very expensive for its portioning (only a medium coconut shell, as a bowl), and they only put 2 big shrimp inside for something that we could eat inside the soup. More filling please!



    [Khao Ni Mamuang Rp.39.000]

    Mango sticky rice. Not bad, actually. Two things that would make this better are to improve its quality and presentation. The sticky rice's color was a bit dark and didn't look so clean, and the mango still had some part or its skin hadn't peeled of perfectly. If they arrange it so neatly, it would add more value to the meal. And the coconut milk was a bit too salty too. The taste of the sticky rice and mango was good.



    [Thai Tea Rp.29.000]

    Creamy thai tea. The thai tea flavored wasn't too strong, a bit sweet and more cream. I love it.

    [Fresh Strawberry Rp.35.000]

    They add a bit syrup and sugar here, it's a fresh squeeze juice and it tasted wonderful. Fresh and delicious. Not too sweet (for me) :p

    O Crepes [ Karawaci, Crepes ]

    Need some serious innovation

    I've know this shop as one of the first stall selling crepes in town. Way before crepes were famous. Back then, I love to had its choco-banana, savory crepes, and cold ones. But more and more new crepes stalls were opened. Innovation on the recipe, looks, and filling. They didn't improved anything. So losing quality compared to other new competitors were inevitable. Their crepes were too plain, too thin, and their filling were too usual and too little. Now, there're better recipe for crepes so that it would became thicker, yummier, and easier to eat. The filling, like nutella and ovomaltine, choco spread, was obviously gave better taste rather than choco sprinkles. Since they made really bad taste after being heated.

    Bakmie Aloi [ Gading Serpong, China ]

    Porsi banyak, kenyalnya pas!

    Udah beberapa kali saya lewatin ruko Bakmi Aloi ini. Saya sebelumnya sering makan saingannya yang namanya mirip banget, makanya waktu lewat kok kayaknya sounds familiar. Akhirnya saya coba delivery. Saya pesan Bakmie Ayam [Rp.24.000].

    Waktu pesanan saya datang, saya cukup puas lihat porsinya, karena cukup banyak. Kebetulan saya lagi tidak terlalu lapar, jadi saya sharing makanan sama ibu saya. Hehe.

    Pertama-tama, warna bakmie nya agak mengingatkan saya sama lamien manis. Warnanya agak kecoklatan, dan daging cincangnya juga warnanya agak coklat, bukan putih. Untuk tekstur mienya, saya cukup suka. Cukup kenyal, ukurannya pas, rasanya agak asin dan manis, mungkin karena mereka menggunakan kecap manis juga. Cuma menurut saya agak kurang minyaknya, karena cukup sulit buat saya buat menyumpit bakmie nya tanpa mengambil sebagian besar porsi dari kardus makanan. Ayam cincangnya enak dan cukup melimpah. Kuahnya biasa aja, dan sambelnya agak sedikit padat.

    Overall, bakmienya cukup enak. Menurut saya ini cukup tinggi resemblancenya sama lamien manis, dari segi bentuk bakmie, warna, dan sedikit rasa. Hanya saja, yang ini tidak menggunakan kecap manis terlalu banyak, jadi lebih kurang rasanya tidak semanis lamien manis ;)

    Paper Bag [ Karawaci, Taiwan ]

    Real Good Packaging, a bit Too wet for the Chicken

    Chicken chicken chicken were just so famous as snacks nowadays. Paper Bag is one of chicken stall you can find at malls. Paper Bag wasn't as popular as other deep fried chicken, I was curious, so I tried.

    I ordered Honey Chicken Teriyaki [Rp.30.000].

    The one thing that I loved about this shop was its packaging. I always wish that all of the shop selling fried chicken fillet could offered a more decent packaging, not just the paper bag that would easily be soggy and ripped by chicken's water vapor. I know this paper bag used paper bag before, but last time I went here, they provided me with a decent plastic bowl that could stay in shape till I finish my meal. The chicken was so so though. Too watery for me. I expect more like deep fried chicken, I thought the honey teriyaki was more like a Korean fried chicken, more like sauce on top, but the chicken was still dry, you know. But the chicken was a bit wet. There's a little bone in it too.

    Doner Kebab [ Karawaci, Barat,Arab/Timur Tengah ]

    Good good bites

    I usually ordered this in here:

    Pita Fried Chicken [Rp.20.000]

    The bread was a bit thick, delicious regular pita bread. The chicken was deep fried, crunchy and tasty too! It's fillet so don't worry about bones :D



    Beef Kebab [Rp.36.500]

    Love the kebab. The portion was actually not really generous, but enough to make one person full, I guess. The beef was sliced thin, nice and cooked well, tasty too. The mayo and the veggies was ok but didn't really taste fresh.
