    Kintaro Sushi [ Pantai Indah Kapuk, Jepang ]

    ⭐⭐

    Black Gyukatsu Set 🥩 Beef Katsu
    🍚 Foiegras Rice
    🍲 Truffle Dashi Soup
    🥗 Salad
    🥚 Egg Yolk Dipping
    We've never been so intrigued by a dish until we saw this black gyukatsu in social media. The color contrast between the black breading and juicy red meat looked not only appetizing, but also elegant. Just by looking at the ingredients, we knew this wouldn't be your everyday lunch meal; the high price point is justified by high quality ingredients.
    The meat is relatively juicy, but the signature katsu crunch layer didn't have enough bite on it for us. They gave us a cast iron pan to sear the meat before actually eating them, and that actually helped accentuate the meat's natural aroma. We loved the three grill sauces as well (onion sauce, truffle sauce, bulldog sauce), with the onion sauce being our favorite for its savoriness. After grilling the meat, we dipped it in the egg yolk before savoring every bite. In our opinion, the meat could use more salt, though. 🙏🏻
    The foiegras rice is... a foiegras rice. You can taste the foiegras with every mouthful of the rice, and it adds complexity to the flavor even more. The truffle soup is mostly a dashi stock with some sliced shimeji mushroom and a generous drizzle of truffle oil. We were impressed with the amount of variation we got with a single set menu, which in part is the selling point of this dish.
    However, we felt that there was too much going on in one dish, that we failed to determine which is the "star" ingredient of the set menu. Each component tasted great on their own, but we're not entirely sure if they're meant to be eaten together. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

    TYFEL COFFEE [ Tanjung Duren, Vegetarian ]

    Cozy Place to Catch Up on Your Reading List!

    One of our favorite pastimes is definitely leisure readings in coffee shops, especially if they have a cozy interior and indulgent beverages!
    When we had the chance to visit Tyfel Coffee the other day with friends, we knew we just had to order their Bon Bon Coffee, which is served with a cute little bottle, topped with an aluminum foil wrapping. We really love the balance of coffee and milk in this beverage!
    Our pick for light reading? Real Choochoo's recently released book, which we absolutely loved! These little booklets of pure bliss are now available in major bookstores in Indonesia. With a vibrant blue cover like this, you really can't miss them. In our opinion, they make for an excellent coffee table companion!

    Say Chiizu [ Puri ]

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Hokkaido Cheese Toasts (Original & Chocolate)


    We were so excited to try this cheese toast, which has been the talk of the town for quite awhile now. Nothing beats the crunchiness of the toasts, the slightly sweet spread, and that ultimately gooey and stringy cheese. We admit we were quite skeptical about the cheese toast before; how could the cheese be stretched that far? Well, turned out it could, and it was certainly one of the best toasts we've ever had in our lives!

    Hokkaido Icecream Puff [ Puri, Es Krim ]

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Matcha Hokkaido Puff We're thrilled to finally try this Hokkaido Ice Cream Puff! Been a long time fan of Japanese cream puffs, and this certainly didn't disappoint! The puffs were crunchy and held its texture even after holding the giant scoop of ice cream. The ice cream itself was so creamy, balanced with a little hint of bitterness, and super decadent. We couldn't ask for a better matcha flavor!

    Fat Straw [ Pantai Indah Kapuk, Bubble Tea ]

    Their Honey Boba is a Must Try!

    Ice Milk Drink w/ Caramel, Taro Pudding, Honey Boba (IDR 29k) We ordered ours with taro pudding because they ran our of their regular one. But we were pleasantly surprised to find how lovely the flavor combination was! Not only did the beverage feel silky smooth and mellow because of the milk, it was also perfectly sweetened with honey; the very same they coated the honey boba with.
    Fair warning, guys. We don't think ordering one is going to be enough.

    EatSaurus [ Cengkareng, Kafe ]

    Murah Meriah

    Paling seneng kalau nemu tempat makan baru yang enak. Pas kemarin ini ada kesempatan ngunjungin Eatsaurus di kawasan Semanan, pilihan makanan jatuh pada menu yang sangat eye-catching ini.

    Sandwich Ala King ini memang menggoda banget, soalnya kejunya gooey gitu. Dalemnya ada chicken katsu dan barbeque sauce. Rasanya balanced banget. Katsunya crispy dan roti charcoalnya juga super lembut. Di dalamnya juga ada timun dan selada, jadi rasanya nggak terlalu heavy, padahal kejunya lumayan banyak! Nggak nyesel pokoknya beli ini.
    Dan yang paling penting, harganya pas di kantong banget! Makanan yang lain-lainnya juga enak banget. Mulai dari Chicken Katsu-nya, sampai Nasi Goreng Hongkongnya semuanya enak banget! Kaget banget pas udah pesen begitu banyak dan ternyata bill-nya nggak sampai 100 ribu.
    Recommended banget deh, pokoknya!

    Menu yang dipesan: sandwich ala king, ala king original, nasi goreng hongkong keju

    Hoghock [ Cengkareng, China ]

    One of Our Favorite Comfort Food!

    Combo BBQ Pork Belly Succulent pork meat, crunchy pork cracklings, and sweet & juicy pork satay to complete the dish. This is definitely one of our favorite comfort food! The BBQ seasoning brings out the natural umami flavor from the meat. Much love!
    Bacon Cheese Bomb Bacon and mozzarella cheese. What do you get when you combine two of our favorite ingredients into one dish? 😍😍😍
    .
    Not only does Bacon Cheese Bomb has crunch from the fried bacon, the gooey cheese inside becomes a nice contrast in texture. Don't forget the small dollop of mayonnaise on top, which binds the finger food together into this crunchy-yet-chewy, salty-yet-sour snack we will definitely crave for a long time!

    Menu yang dipesan: BBQ Pork Belly, Bacon Cheese Bomb

    Harga per orang: Rp. 50.000 - Rp. 100.000

    Sophie Authentique [ Kemang, Kafe ]

    Quaint and Lovely

    The moment we stepped into Sophie Authentique, we immediately fell in love. The small showcase, fresh fruits lined up at the bottom, and rustic pastries on display are good indications of the place's overall look and feel. It feels like we're visiting a small cafe in France for a morning coffee! 

    We ordered a Canelé, which was very moist and had a strong caramel flavor. We also appreciated the fresh orange-apple-carrot juice as our vitamin booster. We could tell that the fruits used were fresh and yummy!

    Menu yang dipesan: canele, Juice

    Fillmore Coffee [ Karet Kuningan, Kafe ]

    Best Coffee Shop in Jakarta to be Productive

    Jujur, kami jatuh cinta pada coffee shop ini dari pertama kali kami berkunjung. Dengan interiornya yang homey banget, dan juga window seat yang super kece, ber-lighting bagus, dan ditutupi rindangnya pepohonan, Fillmore Coffee memang menjadi salah satu tempat favorit kami untuk bekerja. Buat teman-teman yang mau mampir ke sini, kami saranin datang pagi ya, guys. Kalau sore soalnya suka sudah penuh tempatnya 

    Honey Latte
    Acidity kopinya berasa banget, padahal ini sudah ditambah madu. Untuk teman-teman yang suka minum kopi dengan cita rasa asam, semua kopi di Fillmore Coffee ini recommended.

    Poach'd Brunch & Coffee House [ Kemang, Kafe ]

    Brunch Memuaskan

    Weekend kemarin, kami sempat mampir ke Poach'd Brunch & Coffee House untuk sarapan. Yah, sebenarnya kami sampai di tempatnya sekitar pukul 10 pagi juga, sih. Jadi mungkin lebih tepatnya disebut brunch ya, daripada breakfast, hehehe.

    Ngomong-ngomong brunch, ternyata Poach'd ini memang menyediakan menu brunch dengan cita rasa dari seluruh dunia. Kemarin ini kami pesan yang Texan brunch set, yang berisi sourdough bread, beef brisket, sunny side up, cheddar, bacon, dan sides berupa salad. Kaget juga sih, waktu makanannya keluar, karena ternyata porsinya banyak banget! 

    Overall spices dari beef brisketnya enak. Sourdough breadnya juga jadi base yang solid karena nggak gampang lembek/mushy. Tapi yang paling bikin seru, of course adalah mecahin si telurnya. Ngelihat kuning telur yang meleleh dan menutupi beef brisket di piring bikin kami makin lapar deh, guys. Untung aja porsinya besar banget; kami cukup kenyang meski sepiring dimakan berdua. 

    Suka banget deh pokoknya. Lain kali kalau ke Poach'd lagi, mungkin kami akan nyoba menu brunch yang lain, hehehe.
