Tempat yogurt baru buka di lotte katanya super booming di Bandung. Honestly, this is one of the best frozen yogurt in Jakarta and surprisingly the sugar level is super low (about 3.5-4.5%)
compare to other froyo at Jakarta.

Dari segi pelayanan oke banget, antrian panjangnya gangerti lagi tapi mereka cepet banget prosesnya. Penjelasan on each menu juga oke banget dan harganya super terjangkau (setengah dari so**sal**, dan mereka buka persis disebrangnya wow!). So, karena tempatnya jauh jadi yauda sekalian cobain menu2 mereka karena jujur menarik2 sih.
ORIGINAL YOGURT (25K) with longan and nata de coco topping - jadi froyo mereka pake greek yoghurt yang kandungannya 2x lipat lebih besar dan kadar gulanya hanya setengah dari yang biasa, jadi lebih bagus untuk dikonsumsi daripada yogurt biasa. Dan topping mereka itu rata2 buah, yang saus cuma 2 itu pun saus buah jadi gulanya pasti jauh lebih sedikit. Dan jujur karena less sugar perna coba froyo luar gasuka banget tapi CHIA-YO froyo ini enak banget dan ga enek samsek 

BLUEBERRY LONGAN YOGURT DRINK - ini paling membekas di lidahku. Banyak banget yang bikin yogurt drink tapi jarang yang menurutku enak. Nah aku gatau 2 rasa lainnya gimana tapi yg blueberry ini bener2 seger, manisnya pas, ada asamnya juga. ENAKKK BANGET SIH 

YOGURT MOCHI (15K/each): ada 5 rasa: berry, lemon crunch, lemon, chocolate & plain. Aku cobain semua kecuali lemon krn pikir mirip lah dengan lemon crunch. Wagelaseh enak banget ini, tingkat beku yogurtnya menurutku pas, mochinya lembut. Dan menurutku yang paling enak itu chocolate sm lemon crunch. Untuk yang lemon asem gitu dengan add on crunch jadi pas. Kalo yang coklat juga dikit banget tapi bold rasanya jadi buat anak2 kalo gasuka asem bisa makan yang ini

Kopi ke-8 yang menjadi sasaran 'berburu kopi' berikutnya adalah animo bread culture. YES kalo ini fix pemain lama terfavorit dan jujur menurutku diantara semua kopi yang pernah aku coba, ANIMO IS THE BEST !!!! Biasanya pesen es kopi susu dan es kopi moka. Tapi still my favorite is this one:
ES KOPI SUSU ANIMO (17K): MURAH DAN ENAK BANGET. Gila mereka jelas bukan pake susu greenfield terbukti karena berasa susunya jauh lebih gurih dan komposisi antara kopi, susu dan gulanya bener2 pas banget karena selalu enak dan tidak pernah mengecewakan. This is the best kopsus dan kalian harus cobainnnn. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!  *btw kalian harus sabar ya kalo mau beli langsung karena antriannya kayak ular setiap saat, isinya gojek grab haha dan orang sekali beli 5-10 gelas haha, untung pelayannya gercep.

Kopi terakhir sekaligus terunik yang menjadi sasaran 'berburu kopi' adalah KOPI BABABRU. Kalo delapan sebelumnya itu antara uda perna denger ato emang on the list, nah kalo yang ini literally kita search di google kopi yang deket daerah kantor apa dan sempet ada top 2 gitu tapi akhirnya pilih ini karena menunya yang jauh lebih unik2.
Jadi yang ini sebenernya modal nekat jadi antara enak banget or sebaliknya. Karena lokasinya dekat jadi cuss langsung ke metro park dan modelannya minimalis gitu jadi akhirnya memilih untuk takeaway. Dua menu yang menarik mata adalah:
DIRTY CHAI LATTE (22K) - espresso, masala chai, fresh milk. Semenjak minum chai latte di sydney jadi suka banget sama minuman satu ini tapi sayangnya seringkali coba yang dijakarta n jujur all failed, yang enak cuma di gioi. Kali ini aku berhasil menemukan kombinasi chai latte dengan espresso yang beneran strong, tapi ga tumpang tindih rasanya dan ENAK (9/10)
KOPI TRUFFLE (25K) - HANDS UP, finally I found another BEST COFFEE beside animo. Gilagilagila ini enak banget sih. Respon pertama rekan kerjaku, gila mereka pake sirup apa haha. Berasa banget trufflenya and yes bukan coklat truffle melainkan truffle jamur yang biasa ada di savoury food. Emang jaman sekarang uda ada eskrim truffle, tapi kalo kopi truffle ini yang kedua kali aku coba (tapi yang ditempat pertama ini ga berasa at all trufflenya) dan jujur BABABRU sukses banget eksekusinya. FIX besok langsung cuss beli lagi haha  (10/10)

Salah satu restoran yang suasana dan tempat sangat enak buat nongkrong. Bener2 betah kalo lagi makan disini. Untuk pelayanan sih oke banget, mereka masaknya cepet dan pelayanan on tablenya juga gercep. Dan hari ini randomly banget pengen makan pizza black truffle mereka yang enak banget.
BLACK TRUFFLE PIZZA (148K) - aku suka pizza mereka selain tebel, toppingnya juga super generous, atasnya dikasi topping salad biar ada fresh elementnya. Selama ini bolak balik makan sih tetep konsisten enaknya  (10/10)

Next time mau cobain makanan dia yang baru lainnya, aku sering sih makan disini selain pizza cuma ternyata uda ganti menu jadi aku ga review disini lagi (percuma kalian gabakal bisa cobain juga meskipun super enak risottonya hehe)

Tsujiri is quite great but if you want more premium matcha then goes for Amausaan. I think the best in tsujiri is their houjicha but matcha in here is way better. The place is quite small but way fancier, attentive service, price seems expensive at first but the quality is on front liner so yeah quite worth it. Try their best dessert in here:

So, fyi there's 2 types of matcha soft serve, the one with high intensity of matcha so it's more thick with the hint bitter from the matcha itself; and the other one is for non matcha fan so will be mix with milk, more milky creamy and sweet. But if you have to choose one, I'm team ISHIDA 

ISHIDA (WHITE JADE MATCHA STORY - 62K): Supreme uji matcha ice cream soft served with vanilla pudding, crispy waffle cone, whipping cream topped with red beans, glutinous rice balls and shelled crispy rice. This is one of their popular recommendation, this one is totally for matcha lover. The texture of each elements are absolutely mouth melting, taste is incredible - well balanced between fat and sweet lol. Love their matcha ice cream and vanilla pudding the most!  (10/10)

SEIRANSO (UJI MATCHA ICED BAMBOO TUBE - 52K) served in the bamboo tube filled with shaved ice, red bean and 1 scoop matcha gelato, topped with whipping cream, shelled crispy rice and brown sugar syrup. ANW, forget to take the picture as my friend just eat it straight away . This one is the milky one, if you're not a fond of matcha then go straight for this and again, full of flavour. Every bite of this fatty dessert worth the calories  (9/10)

Having birthday lunch with my family. OMG totally blown away by their food's quality. I do literally experience mouth-watering authentic Japanese cuisine - started from their finest sushi and sashimi, teppanyaki, robatayaki and tempura bar.

That live cooking station is really attractive and you could see how they cooked the beef and other teppan and veges into perfection! And the service is great!! The place looks sophisticated with the black and white theme. As I go at weekend so I know it would be full of people but still catch the cozy vibes. For the food, I see loooots of delicious food clearly exposed and wondering what should I take.

And the one that catch my eyes definitely:
Sashimi pizza consists of fresh salmon sashimi, veges and spicy mayo on top of thin 'crisp' pizza crust

Several kind of sashimi from salmon, tuna, mekajiki until smoked duck. Gonna admit all fresh and their quality control is amazing

The Grill: lobster ulala so juicy, fresh and sweet; all that kind of beef and unique fish (never tried before) that perfectly grilled. And gonna admit that is the best clams I ever eat!

Assorted tempura: omg lot of different kind of veges and ofcourse the prawn itself, still crunchy and they could make delicious tempura sauce!

Last one, absolutely that eyes-drooling dessert. No room for any ice cream or fruit, but their cakes are too tempting - the most memorable would be their coffee hazelnut and red velvet! NUMERO UNO 

Bisa dibilang salah satu tempat paling pewe either buat ngobrol or kerjain tugas itu ya Lewis & Carroll. Typical clean bright and spacious place yang ambiencenya oke banget. Dari segi pelayanan no complaint, gercep dan attentive banget. Uda cobain semua dessert dia mendadak pas mau kesini balik makan dessert, mereka mengganti sederetan plated dessert dengan yang baru, dan jujur banyak yang menarik dan kekinian.

Tapi karena rencananya masi mau makan malam dan wafflenya lagi sold out jadi cobain menu HOTPLATE DESSERT (68K) consists of warm chocolate brownies, crispy crouton, cappucino sauce and vanilla ice cream. And it's tasty!! I gotta admit that they never failed me in terms of plated dessert . Konsepnya sebagian besar unik, Komposisi dan kombinasi rasanya jago, platingnya cantik dan overall tastenya amazing.

Untuk minumnya, selalu goes to my old favorite dan ini juga best seller mereka yaitu VITALITEA, lupa komponennya tapi yang jelas paling enak, ga terlalu pait dan enjoyable 

I’m backkkk from Bandung and go straight away to union central park. At last I tried their new 'super famous' cake and croissant - no long queue today ^^
Great ambience (super cozy to chit chat with friends or having meeting) and service. I appreciate and respect them for giving honest explanation regarding that mocha croissant (instead of denial) and thankyou for the free red velvet croissant 

PINA COLADA CAKE (75K): omg definitely one of the best cake I ever taste. You won't expect it, not an ordinary fruity cake. The cake itself is airy and moist. Their different layers of texture -- coconut and pineapple, in between there's pineapple jam and whipped cream (it's taste more like nastar). And there's pineapple jelly on top of the cake to add extra texture and I love it because it's not too sweet 

MOCHA NOUGAT CROISSANT (35K): first impression, omg that texture of croissant is amazing - it's crusty and golden color shell on the outside, as I open it looks soft and airy on the inside. But when I try the cream, I thought it a little bit sour as I eat it I taste it more sour, but not like a stale one. As I ask the waiter, he come back and said sorry to us - they use too much lime and rum instead of the coffee powder so they give us free red velvet croissant in return.

RED VELVET CROISSANT (35K): OMG love their donut and cake, but more love for the croissant! This red velvet is da bomb!!! I think it's slightly different from what I taste before at other branch - not too sweet compare other branch. That double cream cheese inside outside is full pack of flavor, combine perfectly with the red velvet; and I love the way they make the croissant is slight bitter to balance overall sweetness 

Will always be a fan of AW KITCHEN’s food till now and I hope will always be. So this review is the overall 6 best times visit!

SPAGHETTINI SPICY COD ROE AND JAPANESE MUSHROOM IN GARLIC OIL (155K) - AWKITCHEN’s specialty dish - fresh spaghetti with spicy cod roe and assorted Japanese mushroom. That Godly flavourful of spicy cod roe collaborate with that al dente pasta and it turns into a dish I literally came back for. (10/10)

RISOTTO BEEF WITH BOILED HOT SPRING EGG (158K) - diced beef sirloin with cream risotto topped with half cooked boiled egg and truffle oil. Best dinner of tonight’s dish. Full of bold flavor and well balanced! (10/10)

PAPPARDELLE SALMON AND BROCCOLI CREAM SAUCE (118K) - homemade whole pasta in light cream sauce, salmon and broccoli. Just a simple but cooked and seasoned beautifully turns out to be a great cream pasta! (8/10)

BLACK ANGUS BEEF TATAKI (135K) - pan seared black angus beef tataki style, drizzled in soy grated daikon sauce and tomato marinade dressing. Another massive dish of the night. That bold flavor from the angus beef and the unique sauce is dang it! YAM! (10/10)

SALMON COBB SALAD (110K) - classic garden salad topped with salmon, steamed chicken, cherry tomatoes, broccoli, slice olive, avocados and egg served with tomato onion dressing. Simple salad just to balance my palate from all that bold dishes I order. (7/10)

FETTUCINE JAPANESE MUSHROOMS CREAM (118K) - fettucine with assorted japanese mushroom cooked in creamy sauce - as a fan of cream sauce, just order a simple dish to find the original taste of their pasta. Yet, it’s good but prefer the pappardelle more. (7/10)

PIZZA AL FUNGHI (110K) - pizza with aromatic mushrooms, ine mozzarella, scarmorza and grana padano cheese topped with bacon. A more average dish, but nonetheless delicious (8/10)

PIZZA QUATTRO FORMAGGI (130K) with gorgonzola, mozzarella, cheddar and grana padano cheese served with honey. Every bite of that fatty slice of pizza worth the calories. The 4 types of cheese + honey, I couldn’t ask more! (10/10)

PIZZA CHICKEN TERIYAKI MUSHROOM (105K) - fusion between Japanese and Italian culture which is pizza topped with juicy grilled chicken, nori and sweet teriyaki flavour. One of the best restaurant? Oh yes absolutely, and it’s because of this pizza. Full of flavour and I should say that fusion idea is totally works! (10/10)

I live in Indonesia but I’m not a fan of Indonesian food because most dishes use chili and weird spice to elevate their taste. Born to be a non-chili girl, I couldn’t eat any spicy food. But, I heard lots of positive comments about this restaurant so here I am.

BEBEK OPOR (128K) - roasted tender duck in spicy coconut curry with fried potato and japanese kyuri cucumber. I don’t know how they cooked this dish but it’s not spicy at all. And that opor is so creamy but not overly sweet. The duck itself is so tender and balance the opor taste. Love it! (9/10)

TAHOE TELOR (78K) - crispy fried tofu with eggs served with sweet soya lime kaffir. Another must order in Kunstkring! Just a simple tofu and egg dishes that all Indonesian restaurant serve but can’t resist that crispiness and a little acidity in that sweet soya sauce - an extra kick for overall dishes! (9/10)

GADO GADO DJAKARTA (78K) - traditional Indonesian vegetable salad with bean curd, soya bean cake, egg, shrimp crackers served with rice cake and peanut sauce. Random choosing, just want to eat some veges but don’t want to order random food recklessly. Gado-gado will always and taste good in my palate (never try worst gado2 ever). (8/10)

KUNGPAO STUFFED CRISPY DUCK (118K) - marinated of fillet roasted duck stuffed with smoked beef, shiitake mushroom, lotus seed and served with black vinegar sauce. This is one example of reckless and wrong decision to order this dish. There’s two elements that I don’t like - mushroom and black vinegar sauce. So, the overall dish fall apart at the first spoon. (5/10)

SESATEE ZOETELIEF OF PAK PAHEENG SOLO (248K) - a famous recipe from old Batavia of grilled Australian tenderloin satays marinated in coriander and coconut milk. DEFINITION OF DELICIOUS! Expensive? Absolutely, but OMG their tenderloin satay is soooo big - fatty - yummy and tender! (10/10)

GEROOSTERDE VISCH (118K) - roasted marinated spicy turmeric sea bass fish fillet, served with fried fern tip and baby potatoes! Not try this one because it’s fish (just a salmon fan) — spicy - and using turmeric as a spice! Not a risky foodie so I pass this one. But my mom said it’s good and cooked well! (8/10)
