My Mom's Bistro

First I'll talk about the ambience. The decoration was quite nice. There's cute wooden wall, to make this look like a vintage-barn. They need to do something about the lighting, though. Most of the rays were captured on my camera, and feel a bit gloomy when I went here. They also didn't turn on music. Maybe that's one of the reason why.

So they had 2 different style of foods in two different menus. There're asians and westerns. We tried their western food:


[Chicken Creamy Cheese Rp.40.000]

Too much cream for me. They need to add more cheese and herbs on this because the taste was too milky and creamy. But the pasta was al dente, and the sauce's density was enough. The portion was huge too :)


[Fish and chips Rp.55.000]
They present the fish and chips on a pan. Kind of remind me of some other restaurant. Good presentation, they already cut the fish into 7 and fried them. The outside were so crispy and tasty, and the fishes were tender. It was a little bit hard to cut it in a good shape, though. Maybe because the flour doesn't really glued to the fish or the fish's fibers a bit off. The tartar sauce was amazing! And the salad was really delicious too.

[Iced Tea Tarik Rp.14.000]

Good, milky Thai tea. A bit creamier and milkier than usual, but I like it.

Overall I had a good meal here, the price was affordable too, the place was not bad, the food were okay.

Menjelang hari raya Idul Fitri, tempat makan sudah mulai pada tutup. Makin susah buat nyari makan. Tapi untungnya masih ada yang rajin dan buka maka masuklah kami ke resto ini.

Dekorasi dan desain interior resto ini seperti gabungan antara barn dan restaurant. Berasa kayak di TV yang rumahnya di tengah-tengah lahan sawah. 

Saya memesan Herb Chicken Steak dan salah satu teman saya memesan burgernya. Mengingat ketika saya datang itu tempatnya sepi, sayangnya saya harus menunggu cukup lama sampai makanan disajikan, antara 15 sampai 25 menit. Salah satu aspek yang harus diperbaiki. Untuk herb chicken steak nya menggunakan paha ayam tanpa tulang dan disajikan dengan sayuran, kentang goreng, dan mushroom sauce. Sayuran, kentang, dan ayamnya lumayan enak. Tidak overcooked sehingga sayurannya masih crunchy, kentangnya garing, dan ayamnya juicy. Hanya sausnya saja yang saya kurang suka karena tidak creamy. Andai saja creamy, pasti saya kasih bintang 5 untuk rasa. Yang burger ukurannya lumayan besar, disajikan dengan salad dan kentang goreng. Saya coba saladnya saja dan itu cukup enak.
