Common Grounds

Mampir kesini karena terlalu pagi mau ke toko disini masih tutup dan belum minum kopi. Hot americano nya ternyata cukup mahal hampir 50 ribu walaupun rasanya enak dan berbeda. Porsinya tidak besar dan cangkirnya aneh tidak ada kupingnya jadi kalau masih panas susah pegangnya.

Today is meetup time so it’s time to order some of their best menu. And this is a review for 4 times come into this place to try a loooot of their menu but only had some picts because too lazy to take pict for the last 3 visits. Great place to works, nice ambience, great food!

MAPLE GLAZED BACON (82K) - scrambled eggs with garlic butter baguette. This plate consists of all my favorite food - bacon, eggs, butter and absolutely MAPLE! The combination is perfect and they could harmonised all ingredients beautifully! Love it! (10/10)

STEAK SALAD (110K) - sliced australian sirloin, mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, red onions, honey balsamic vinaigrette. Try their steak salad at other branch last time and just curious in here. My kind of healthy and favorite dish of all time. Love that greens, balance of sweet and acidity from the sauce and that absolutely tender sirloin. And i agree that this menu consistently taste amazing in all outlets (10/10)

STEAK & EGGS (155K) - 150gr Australian sirloin, fried eggs, french fries and house salad. Compare to the salad, this one is not a consistent dish. I order twice and first time I’ve got beautiful medium cooked steak. But the second time, the fries are soggy and that sirloin is totally undercooked. I can’t even cut the steak and can’t eat it. I asked for the new one still they repeat the same mistake (this is my first visit, i hope they took my complaint srsly!) (4/10)

GRILLED CHICKEN WITH PESTO ROSSO (98K) with truffled mashed potatoes and sauteed seasonal vegetables. Just okay, nothing special and the sauce is not bold enough to be the star of that flat taste of chicken. (7/10)

SALTED CARAMEL PANCAKES (69K) - homemade pancakes, caramelized banana slices, cashew nuts crumble, salted caramel topped with Brookfarm vanilla ice cream. Absolutely one of the main reason to be common grounds’ loyal customer. Their dessert is massive! Love all the components of this dishes and I could eat it by myself! (10/10)

TIRAMISU WAFFLES (69K) - homemade waffles, whipped mascarpone cream, cloak and dagger espresso butter, cocoa powder (adding brookfarm vanilla icecream +15) - HANDS UP IF YOU’RE A COFFEE ADDICT! Their espresso butter is a champ of this dish. Find the better one in Sydney but this is one of the best I could find in Jakarta. Overall, love the tiramisu waffles! And this menu is my repeat order just to check their consistency :) (9/10)

Always love with their coffee bean so I ordered ICED CAFE LATTE (42.5K) - 1 part espresso and steamed milk in a 7er cup. Good! (7/10)

• Double Chocolate Pancake •
Good, but very standard. Nothing extraordinary. The chocolate ganache was very good though.
.
• Brulee French Toast •
Pretty dissapointed with the french toast. The bread was a bit burnt and it didn’t taste very good. Did not like the espresso butter at all.

Good coffee with cheapest French fries ever!
I love their design and the soft sofa around.
If you need to be alone or working using their WiFi, I didn't recommend that here because it's too crowded.

Common ground di citiwalk lokasinya tidak jauh dari lobi utama, aku ngopi disini sembari nunggu jemputan. Tempatnya tidak terlalu besar, tidak terlalu nyaman ya tempatnya karena terbuka gitu. Aku disini cuma coba minumannya ice cappucino dan hot mocha. Ice cappucinonya coffeenya cukup strong, agak pahit untuk aku jadi musti ditambah gula lagi. Untuk hot mochanya enak, mix antara chocolate dan coffeenya pas.

Bener2 agak under estimate sama cafe2 or resto2 yg makin berjamur sekarang😎, aku ga berharap banyak kl resto2 yg ak kunjungi bener2 enak. Yah, seengaknya kita pernah coba ajalah ya kann??

Aku cobain 2 menu disini

1. Hamburg mushroom dapet telurnya : (3.9/5) yah oke kok ini rasanya idr. 105k sedikit mahal krn ga gede2 amat hamburgnya

2. SPAGHETI CARBONARA NYAAAAA😘 : parahhh ini Enakk Gilaaaaaa, gak bisa nemuin ini ditempat lain... yah sayang meatnya secuiiiiillll garing2 gt meatnya.. harganya idr 80k lebih deh ini
