One of my favorite dinner, tried almost their menu last time and found some great one in here.

ASIAN PORK RICE (110K) - pork belly slices with soy glaze and fried egg on jasmine rice : one of the best pork rice I ever eat and definitely one of their best dish. Enak banget, porknya empuk, sweet soy glaze-nya nendang abis dan bikin keseluruhannya makin nikmat (10/10)

CHICKEN KATSU (98K) - breaded chicken, scrambled eggs, furikake, mayonnaise, katsuboshi and teriyaki reduction. Another top notch dish. Entah napa orang jarang pesen ini, mungkin karena "chicken katsu" padahal beda banget version mereka dan enaaaak parah. And their teriyaki reduction is da bomb! (10/10)
MUSHROOM RISOTTO (125K) - arborio rice, mushroom, truffle oil, grana padano. Kalo ini sih simple dish with great execution. Semua komposisinya pas, pas asinnya - cream - just yum! (9/10)

WATERMELON SALAD (95K) - quinoa, watermelon, cucumber ribbons, mint, grilled halloumi, pepitas, lemon dressings: Nah ini surprisingly enak. Padahal uda underestimate, pikir rasanya bakal biasa aja. Seger banget sayang dulu lebih banyak semangkanya daripada skrg, cuma dulu gaada quinoa nya. Ini enak tp prefer yang dulu (8/10)

KOPI SUSU CAKE (56K) - coffee chiffon, coffee butter cream, coffee soil served with kopi susu sauce. Ini salah satu yang lagi hits. all about kopsus. Sebagai pecinta kopi, aku fix suka banget. apalagi pas habis dituang saucenya, makin berasa kopinya dan ga terlalu manis. Love (9/10). SALTED CARAMEL ECLAIRS (38K): Always be my favorite and never fail! Sendoknya bisa dimakan btw, itu coklat hehe (9/10)

AVOGATO PIE (65K) - pie crust, chocolate sponge, alpukat mousse, coffee jelly served with vanilla ice cream and 70% dark chocolate cacao barry sauce. Massive guarantee that it's not gonna dissapoint you guys. 1 word for this dish - DELICIOUS!!! Alpukat berasa, crustnya renyah, coffee jellynya empuk dan add on another texture, saucenya dewa dan bikin semua element nyatu banget! (10/10)

S'MORES SHAKES (50K) - chocolate ganache, fresh milk, brownies, ice cream, burnt marshmallow and whipped cream. Ini randomly pesen sih. Biasanya pesen salted caramel, mau cobain yang baru. Uwow manis! haha.. tapi adik aku suka banget jadi kembali lagi ke selera ya (7/10)
Tempatnya dibagi jadi dua, smoking n non, tempatnya pewe sih, walaupun banyak karyawan trainee tapi mereka cekatan dan ramah. Great food, cozy place, no complaint!

Awalnya mau the garden tapi waiting list 10 antrian (1.5 hours) jadi melipir kesini. Untuk suasana ya normal tapi karena masih pagi cenderung sepi dan pelayanan juga cepat.
IPPUDO PLATTER BUN - 2 PORK BUN & 1 FRIED CHICKEN BUN (90K): undeniable one of the best bun in Jakarta. That chewy chasiu melted in my mouth directly and I love the extra kick from creamy mayo and fluffy bun. Another fav of mine would be their battered crisp chicken covered with mayo in steamed bun (8/10)

SALMON ROLL (4PCS - 55K): light seared salmon roll that seasoned well with mentaiko and cod roe! Simple yet delicious sushi (8/10)

SHIROMARU SPECIAL (106K): ulala always love their ramen. The combination of ultra thin noodles topped with lean slices of pork, black fungus and my runny egg. Love each components in this bowl! (9/10)

NEW MENU - forgot the price and the name. So, it taste like mentai rice but topped with pork. A small dish but taste incredibly delicious! Surprisingly this new menu is the most memorable compared to others! (10/10) 

YAKULT JELLY SMOOTHIES (38K) - so fresh, sweet, creamy! But i prefer ocha because we already eat lots of creamy food! (8/10)

Ini restoran favorit kalo bingung mau makan apa, jadi kembali ke yang aman aja. Awalnya mau pesen xiao long bao 7 warna itu tapi katanya cuma ada weekend yauda skip ganti yang lain.

XIAO LONG BAO KEPITING & BABI (4pcs - 56K): Simple one, cuma ntah napa hari ini kuahnya kayak kurang nendang gitu, ga seenak ditempat lain. But still good! (8/10)

SOP WONTON UDANG & BABI (45K): Ini juga simple sih, enak dan hangat. Bener2 cocok untuk musim hujan gini (8/10)

NASI GORENG UDANG DENGAN 3 RASA TELUR (63K): Ini perlu diacungi dua jempol untuk rasanya. Aku pribadi suka banget ya. Berasa banget bumbunya dan porsinya juga lumayan banyak (9/10)

GOLDEN LAVA (43K for 3pcs): my 100% favorite dish - bakpao telor asin mereka emang enak banget menurutku karena cenderung manis dan banjir banget, gapelit smskali yum! (10/10)

Untuk suasana ya tipikal chinese food dan karena aku makan di jam nanggung (sekitar jam 4 gitu) jadi sepi hehe.. Untuk pelayanan dan kebersihan no complaint! Pelayannya baik2, gercep, top sih!

SUNNY IN PLUIT (50K) - coconut puree, lychee puree, heavy cream, aloe vera and salt cream caramel. NO COMPLAINT! Soooo goood - ga hanya manis tapi juga ada rasa asin dan gurihnya. Aku pribadi sih suka banget! (10/10)
MOO PING PORK SKEWERS (80K) - caramelized grilled pork jowl satay served with thai chilli sauce: terlalu berminyak kalo menurutku tapi lumayan enak sih, manisnya dapet, asinnya oke. Cuma overpriced (7/10)

TRUFFLE BELLY (105K) - crispy pork belly angel hair with cream sauce and truffle oil. That truffle oil give extra kick to the angel hair. So goood but sorry for the pork belly, it's too hard for me (as it should be chewy) so another overpriced dish (6/10)

Jujur untuk makanan yang aku pesan rada kurang ya, truffle belly andai porknya empuk pasti perfect. Sayangnya terlalu keras dan susah dikunyah membuatku jadi kurang menikmati masakannya karena pork belly adalah salah1 highlight dari masakan tersebut.

Kalo untuk tempat sih no complaint ya, bagus bangettt. Super cantik dan sangat instagrammable dari pintu keluar sampe masuk kedalemnya. Semua sudut sangat cantik. Pelayanan pun sangat cepat dan ramah. Kebersihan sih gausa di bahas lagi uda pasti bersih. Mungkin rasa dan tekstur makanannya aja yang perlu diperhatikan lagi :)

GIOI'S SIGNATURE CRISPY DUCK (170K half; 270K whole) - marinated duck with a side of GIOI's rice and jukut kalasan. WOW that is totally a crispy and juicy duck! Love the jukut kalasan too. They served 3 chilli too to company that duck! I thought their vendor is same like the garden because the looks of that dish is totally the same, from the sambals - duck - rice - but I found this one is more crispy. Love it! (9/10) 

SALMON LODEH (155K) - crispy skin salmon served with GIOI's creamy twist on the traditional lodeh stew. OMG HOW COULD YOU BE THAT GOOD?! So creamy and tasty. By the looks - so tempting. I couldn't imagine that two ingredients will match heavenly! The salmon itself is cooked perfectly! MUST TRY!! (10/10) 

ASIAN STICKY RIBS (160K) - juicy and tender soy sauce marinated pork ribs, served with baby potatoes and fresh slaw salad. Another best dish, at least for me. That ribs are so tender, juicy and easy to wreck from that bone. Love all the other elements - salad and potatoes all cooked well! (10/10) 

CHAI THAI ICED MILK TEA (45K) - all time favorite thai milk tea with GIOI's very own twist of chai spice. Ulala I love this one! Not every restaurant could make a great chai milk tea, and GIOI could make a great chai mix with thai milk tea - and taste amazing as well! I want more! (10/10) LYCHEE YAKULT CALPIS (48K): so good and fresh. That lychee is definitely extra punch to my all time fav yakult. (9/10)
OMG it tooks a long time for me to recognize this amazing Indonesian fusion restaurant. Amazing food, great services and the place is so clean as well. No complaint with their price tag because the food is cooked perfectly, taste great and big portions as well! Ambience also great! Would be back for sure 

Hari minggu saatnya kuliner mencoba restoran baru atau kembali makan di restoran lama yang terbukti enak dan salah satunya di hello sunday!

Uda pernah cobain hampir semua makanan mereka kayak salad, nasigoreng, pasta, burger, dan ya biasa aja dan cenderung overpriced sih.. Tapi ada dua outstanding menu yang harus dipesan kalo dateng kesini: (jadi nilai review aku berdasarkan 2 menu ini aja)

1. BIG! CHICKEN WAFFLE (single - 85K): enak bangettt.. simple isinya cuma crispy chicken di stack diatas waffle, disajikan dengan salad dan butter soy sauce - sama seperti semua restoran lain, tapi each element just made perfectly - that totally crispy chicken, crisp waffle and superb tasty butter soy sauce! yumm.. If you want to share with your partner, just buy it double! (10/10)

2. WAFFLE BAR (55K): Kita bisa pilih flavor waffle and soft serve nya. PIlihanku jatuh pada PANDAN WAFFLE dengan JAVA TEA SOFT SERVE. Wahhh can't describe how great the java tea soft serve! Not too sweet tapi tetep nonjok rasa java tea nya. enak parahhh teksturnya pun lembut - nagih - and it match well with that pandan waffle. Wangi pandannya enak banget. Ohhh! dan kalian juga harus makan yang disampingnya, mungkin semacem granola gitu enakkk parah dikombinasikan sama eskrim dan wafflenya yuhuu.. And I already tried their kopi tubruk soft serve too. It's taste amazing as well. MAJOR LOVEEE  (10/10)

So, menurut aku dari segi harga worth it banget! karena sering merasakan yang lebih mahal tapi ga seenak ini dan suasana cozy parah. Pewe banget sih, buat duduk ngobrol or main boardgames juga asikk.. Pelayanan attentive banget cuma kalo duduknya diujung rada susah manggilnya karena dia meja kasir dan servingnya di depan. Tapi overall oke banget!!
