<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b>It’s called Warung Kopi Klotok. Located halfway to the famous Ullen Sentalu Museum and Merapi tours, visitors can easily find the kiosk at the end of a narrow alleyway. If you’re renting a car, the driver should know where to turn, otherwise, there are large yellow signs glued to electricity poles along the way to help you out. Don’t get discourages by the lack of parking space or the rather traditional Joglo house of the so-called café. The place is so popular that there are lines and waiting list for the food and drinks.<br /><br />For the first timers, this restaurant is rather confusing because first you have to find a table and memorize the number. Then you went to order food on different corners, mentioning the table number each time. The waiter will deliver the food to you. You order drinks on a paper and picked it up yourself. Then you pay everything when you’re done.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br />I have to do an “indent order” for my second row of fried banana because my son finished over half of the first order in no time. Each party/table can only order up to 6 fried bananas (that’s 3 portions) and if they want to order more, they have to return to the frying corner for the second time. This place doesn’t do take out. They argued that fried banana is best served hot but the talk among townspeople offers a rather mythical version of how those yummy bananas shouldn’t reach the main road to preserve the taste. <br /><br />Whatever it is, we’re having another round. So we wait.</span><br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br />I looked around and realized that we’re lucky to have the table on the corner facing the rice field. If you want a more unique experience, you can sit on one of the mats by the rice fields. The place is always crowded that it’s hard to find open tables. People are there for breakfast (it opens at 7AM), brunch and lunch, maybe all the way through dinner time (it closes at 10PM). I would recommend an early morning visit or sometimes after lunch to avoid the swarming crowd. I was there around 11 and despite the odd hour and on a Friday, the place is packed, mostly with locals although I did saw several foreigners on the tables.</span><div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br />Aside from the tasty fried banana and traditional coffee, Warung Kopi Klotok also offers rice dishes on its menu. The “Nasi Lodeh” is a rice and veggie dish poured with broth. There are different varieties like eggplant and tempe (soybean). You can add side items like fried egg. <br /><br />If you’re not a coffee person, they also serve tea and orange juice. Our food and drinks for 6 people only come up to 100k. Drinks are more or less 5k each while fried banana is around 6k/portion. Nasi Lodeh is around 10k depends on what kind you order.<br /><br />Some says it’s like having a homemade meal. With the crowd, I think the home-concept is a stretch. But if you turn your back from the busy restaurant and hectic kitchen and focus on the peaceful rice fields in front of you then, yes, it feels like a retreat to your grandparents’ house in the village.<br /><br /><i>Where is this?<br />Warung Kopi Klotok <br />Jl Kaliurang KM16, Sleman, Jogjakarta</i></span></div>

The Japanese-Peruvian restaurant returns with this awesome line up to celebrate our independence day. <br /><br /> This is Fiona, giving freedom a taste.</b><br /><br />When Fat Shogun contacted me to try their Independence Deal meal, I said yes right away. I've been to Fat Shogun a couple of times and it's been on our favorite list ever since. <a href="http://www.lunchgetaway.com/2017/02/rooftop-romantic-fat-shogun.html" target="_blank">I celebrated Valentine's day here too</a> and would recommend this restaurant for your special occasion. The unique flavor of Nikkei keeps you coming back for more. It challenges the freshness of each ingredient, uniqueness of the sauce and toppings, in presenting you with the mix of the flavors. Definitely my kind of food. Let's see what the menu has to offer.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Ceviche With Acar Dressing</b><br />Snappers, red onion, tomatoes, acar dressing.<br /><br />It's summer for sure! The spicy, sour dan fresh snappers will fulfill your longing for summer in the end of August. It comes with pickles and real chilli, if you like more spicy sensation. For me, this is more than enough. It's a good introduction to freedom. It's hard to stop and this is just the beginning.<br /><br /><b>Red White Tiradito</b><br />Seabass, tuna, mango ginger salsa.<br /><br />Fresh seabass is one of my favorites, especially Tuna. But the highlight of this meal comes from its sauce: mango ginger salsa. A dominant ginger flavor which is combined with a sweet touch of mango. So it's not overpowering the fish while you still can taste the freshness.<br /><br /><b>Chicken Roll and Cod Misoyaki</b><br /><br />Cod Misoyaki is a familiar dish, so having this included in the menu gives a homey feeling to my palate. This is my must-have menu in Fat Shogun and I'm excited that they decided to include this on theit special menu. For those who aren't familiar with the Cod Misoyaki, it's a buttery cod with crispy vegetables on top. I always ask for crispier veggies. The Chicken Roll reminds you of sushi, but instead of seaweed, Chicken is used to "wrap" the sushi. Inside is super yumny tamago. If you're up to different kind of sushi sensation, try this.</span><br />

They simplified their menu into these four dishes. The idea is using different ingredients in every plate so expect different range of flavors from one plate to another but still feel the Fat Shogun rhythm along the way.<br /><br />The package is only 400k ++/ pax and it's only available exclusively for two days on 16 - 17 August 2017.

<li><b>A-la-Carte Menu is included in the price. </b>Seriously, it’s like you get the best of both worlds. You can pick and choose the orders, play it on repeat and it will always come to you. Personally, we think it’s like having the fun of buffet and the convenience of regular order-to-table dine. </li>
<li><b>Serious goodness is listed on the menu. </b>And it’s only fair if we list them here for you. Our favorite is Filetto Di Manzo. Foie Gras and perfect medium beef tenderloin are still unbeatable.</li>
</span></ul>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
</span><br />
<ol style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><ul>
<li><b>Uova Alla Franco: </b>Black bun with Poached Eggs and Salmon Tar Tar served with Truffle Hollandaise Sauce.</li>
<li><b>Uova Strapazzate: </b>Ciabatta Bread with Scrambled Eggs, Pecorino Cheese, Rocket served with Black Truffle Paste and Red Pesto</li>
<li><b>Uova Al Prosciutto:</b> Toasted Soft Bun with Fried Egg, Parma Ham and sauteed Parmesan Spinach</li>
<li><b>Spaghetti Polpa di Granchio E Acciughe:</b> Spaghetti with Crabmeat and Anchovies served with Fennel Sauce and Spicy Bread Crumbs</li>
<li><b>Filetto Di Manzo:</b> Beef Tenderloin and Foie Gras served with Sauteed Parmesan Spinach and Gorgonzola Sauce</li>
<li><b>Agnolotti Di Bufala E Pesto:</b> Homemade Agnolotti filled with Buffalo Mozzarella served with Basil Pesto Sauce</li>
<li><b>Filetto Di Cernia:</b> Grouper Fish Fillet in Mediterranean Tomato Sauce served with sauteed Mixed Vegetable</li>

<li><b>The Moving Cart.</b> It’s not enough that the a-la carte is the buffet, there’s this cart carrying tasty dishes wandering around the area. We stopped one and peeked into what they have. Fresh Oyster with lemon (just ask them what’s the order limit on this), Scallop and Risotto. The Risotto is quite special as it’s served in a large bowl of cheese.Cheese? Well, you heard it right. The large bowl is made of cheese, not too soft and not too hard, with a hint of truffle. Perfect. Take one when the cart happens to pass by you.</li>
<li><b>Cooking Station. </b>There’s a pasta station which could give you different types of hand-tossed pasta combination. Let the chef know what kind of topping you’d want and he would recommend the best pasta pair with your favorite food. We tried scallop and the cooking station came with a pasta and sauce that match our choice. Oh, if the Foie Gras on the menu isn’t enough, you can order another one here. A large one too, and paired it with your pasta, have it pan-seared or with a bread on the side. </li>
<li><b>Pork Menu.</b> We probably don’t have to remind you about the delicious Parma Ham, but well, we’re going to say it again. Rosso has sliced Ham and Cheese, and the type you can cut to eat with bread. </li>
<li><b>Healthy Side of Life. </b>Aside from the Cooking Station, there’s a Salad Station for the healthier side of you. Whether you want Caesar dressing or balsamic vinegar, they can toss it for you with some fresh grated cheese on top!</li>
<li><b>Save the Best Dessert for Last. </b>You’ll be full, trust us. But as we believe that there’s always room for dessert, sweet ending is a must especially if you go out and indulge in delicious dishes. From ice cream to cake, it’s hard to say no. The chocolate one is highly recommended. </li>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b>I arrived with hubby at 10.30. Was planning for an earlier visit but I have been sick for few days and has yet to recover. Well, this visit couldn't wait, and it's hard to be sick if a coffee shop is calling. Haha. So, there we were, entering the garage of Ali Sadikin's house, the one he's living in after retiring from his job leading and serving Jakarta. The interior is rather simple with an corner where pictures and book (of his private collection) are neatly displayed. <br /><br />Welcomed by the friendly servers, we ordered Ketoprak and Nasi Bakar Tuna Special. The food arrived rather quick, and surprisingly yummy. The Nasi Bakar has decent portion and plenty of fillings. Hubby likes it so much and finished it without realizing that I had been eyeing to try. Then mine arrived, a huge portion of Ketoprak. And I'm glad I'm Indonesian so I can eat that much of Ketoprak in one sitting. It's really delicious, plenty of soft tofu and, well, one-of-a-kind just perfect peanut sauce. Ask for extra chilli if you like spicy dish. <br /><br />It's really homey if you sit on the corner, and there comes another surprise because the one serving us is apparently Ali Sadikin's son. Whoa! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />I personally think it's genius to combine heritage and current coffee shop trends because if it's not because of the coffee, I wouldn't have known (or cared) about where the legendary governor lived. Furthermore, there's always a story behind a coffee and finding a good one is becoming harder these days when they have turned mainstream.<br /><br />Here comes the coffee. We order Hot Cappucinno (Rp.20k) dan Ice Cafe Latte (Rp. 23k). Hot Cappuccino arrived with House Blend Smoking Barrels Beans. I put it as "well-balanced". Ice Cafe Latte is another highlight of the visit. You can choose between between brown sugar and regular one. I went with brown sugar and it tastes great. There's an acid aftertaste which I like. If I'm not sick, I would have ordered twice. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b><br />It’s been a busy week at the office, and despite being on payday, we weren’t able to go out and eat fancy. So, it’s pizza time. We ordered PHD and came pizza in a box for lunch in no time (well, it’s PHD’s promise that the pizza will arrive within 30 minutes or you’ll get free voucher) to our office desk. When we opened it, we see a pizza covered in the familiar pepperoni and something else. No worries, Pepperoni lovers, there are plenty Pepperoni on each slice. While Pepperoni is a regular, Jalapeño is more often seen on Mexican – Spanish dishes and probably makes you wonder what makes the chili pepper is doing on an Italian classic.<br /><br />Jalapeño brings a unique sour hint to the pizza and we like it. <br /><br />But wait, that’s not all, there’s still another surprise called “double cheesy bites.” Even though the pizza came with every crust, we opted for chicken sausage and mozzarella cheese in one crust. When you dip the piece into the Nacho Cheese Dip, it makes the perfect blend on your mouth. While this probably isn’t going to be love at first bite for some taste buds, but it leaves a nice after taste that make you crave for more. Before you know it, you’re picking another slice and dipping it on the Nacho Cheese. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">We definitely love the combination because aside from pizza, we often think about ordering snacks and ended up with too much food on our table. The Double Cheesy Bites Crust can act as the fun snack. Just like you can order any crust with the pizza, you can order the crust with any pizza. Pepperoni Jalapeno Pizza starts from Rp.78k and the Double Cheesy Bites is at Rp.98k and is only available for the 6-piece regular pizza size.<br /><br />Now we’re thinking, would pineapple make a great trio on this pizza?</span></div>

They serve good food and great taste. No wonder we’ve been coming back here again and again. This time for pizza and cocktails.

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /><b>Pizza</b><br />Well, we’re here for the pizza, right. So let’s talk about the pizza. For us, Pizza is identical with cheese. So, when these two pizzas are served together, we’re instantly on the <b>Quattro Formaggi,</b> the Lazio classic with 4 different cheeses (mozzarella, stracchino, fontina and gorgonzola)</span><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">. The other one, <b>Calzone Bolognese</b> is a contrast with all the toppings kept hidden inside. Despite how it looks, Calzone is considered a pizza, a folded, oven-baked one that is. It’s probably the last pizza on our list, but AW Kitchen’s Calzone is something worth the try. While typical calzone doesn't go for that many of a toppings and often related to pizza toppings, this one opted for what's familiar with spaghetti! The filling inside is generous and warm. The dough is also as tasty as regular pizza. So, if you’re bored with the regular topping-on-top-of-dough pizza, you can pick calzone for a change.</span></div>

It’s not always the luxurious romantic kind of food, but may be your comfort food, served with an international upgrade. Skipping lunch at the office, Ruth attended an event held by Aryaduta Hotel Tugu Tani, Jakarta.</b></span><div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b>The hotel, which I passed on my way to and from work everyday, is special. It’s been a frequent reunion place with old friends and coworkers, mainly due to its location. So, walking across the lobby then up to Ambiente where the event was held gives a special memory.<br /><br />Aryaduta is revamping. This month, Celebrity Chef Rinrin Marinka joined on board the kitchen team to develop new menu for the restaurant. Taking Batavian street food and twist them with Marinka style. The star of the day is Nasi Goreng Kambing (Lamb Fried Rice). “Back in college, when I crave for Indonesian food, I always cook this dish. The challenge is how to make the dish interesting and pretty without losing its authenticity.” She then proceeds to do a live cooking show with Rob Cunningham, Group Director Food & Beverage from Aryaduta Hotels Indonesia. <a name='more'></a></span><div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />Unlike Chef Marinka, I didn’t grow up with Nasi Goreng Kambing. So, the fried rice taste I knew was all commercial, from the street food kind to the ones found on restaurant’s menu. I showed Fiona a picture of the fried rice and she commented that it looks homemade. It tastes homemade too. I think Chef Marinka picked this dish as the champion for street food, aside from the fact that it seems to her comfort food, because it’s simple and delicious. But I’m sure for me, it won’t be as easy as the demonstation. <br /><br />So, Chef Marinka uses fresh lamb for the fried rice instead. The rest of the menu consists of your favorite street food such as asinan, kerak telor and her interpretation of Es Campur. My personal favorite on the tray is Kerak Telor, a surprise because that traditional Batavian street dish isn’t what I usually like to buy. Even on those Jakarta Fair days. But I picked up the Kerak Telor twice within half an hour, when the appetizers are served by the waiters and waitresses, before the live cooking began. Chef Marinka gives a contemporary twist to the classic omelet. Adding another level of hotness, a cut of green chili is included in the topping, exploding a surprise tangy taste on your mouth. I was more ready on the second piece. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />These dishes are the first of the series. There will be more unveiled as the hotel finished upgrading its premise and opening new ones around the archipelago. It will also launch its second brand, called Dali by Aryaduta, later this year. Chef Marinka isn’t the only celebrity who will join the panel of ambassadors helping out with the new face of Aryaduta. There would be more along the way, so I guess we can expect more surprises from the brand. In the meantime, enjoy the menu at any Aryaduta Hotels in Indonesia.</span></div>

So did us. That’s why this post is another story about a driving out of the City Center. This time Fiona visited Karawang, a suburb 2 hours away from Jakarta. It was a bright and beautiful day.<br /><br />Welcome to Karawang.</b><br /><br />Deciding where to stay in places like Karawang also means finding accommodation with delicious restaurant on board. Sure, suburb these days aren’t that quiet residential places. Especially Karawang regency,a growing area under West Java province. So I picked Resinda Hotel Karawang, which is managed under Padma hotels.</span><br />

What’s surprising is that they have udon or cold soba. I love it so much! Come to Tenkai on Saturday lunch (from 11.30AM to 2PM) for their Sushi Mayhem promotions. It’s only Rp. 150k++/pax.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">How about swimming pool? It’s quite nice, with pretty stones and mini waterfall. Jogging track is right next to it with gym room nearby. It looks really nice and green. <br /><br />Whoops, it’s dinner time already. Dinner is held at the hotel’s buffet place, <b>The Oryza Restaurant. </b>Padma hotel is owned by Djarum group so the theme is Kudus. The owner of Djarum, upon visiting this place, wanted to eat food from his hometown. So the chef was sent to Kudus to learn about cooking Kudus dishes. Some of the ingredients are still imported from Kudus including the cattle-skin crackers (kerupuk kulit), served as welcome snack.<br /><br />Some of the menu is definitely familiar, it’s just I never realized they originated from Kudus. Tahu Telur Ayam (Tofu and Egg with Chicken), Ayam Garang Asem (a chicken dish in sour coconut milk sauce), and Sup Pindang Ayam (Indonesian chicken curry stew soup) are some of the food. I love the food and it tastes authentic. Ayam Garang Asem is clearly the winning dish for me. But then again, the other two are as delicious.<br /><br />I went to bed with a happy stomach.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /><b>Breakfast is back at the Oryza Restaurant.</b><br /><br />The same restaurant, but breakfast time is a whole different world. Complete buffet from egg station, Indonesian, Western and Japanese. I love that they have a Jamu and honey corner. You’d be surprise with what you find at honey corner, from wild honey, honeydew honey (or forest honey) until Nusantara honey. This time there is indoor and outdoor.<br /><br />Then I went back to sleep until lunchtime. This is one crazy staycation because I can spend the whole day sleeping on the comfy bed, or relaxing while watching TV.<br /><br />Our lunch is held at <b>Haiwang Chinese Delight</b>. It’s quite full, maybe because it’s lunchtime. But those who come are mostly big groups of family. The place is a typical Chinese modern restaurant, mostly in red color, wooden and classic interior. I was taking pictures and peeking into the food. There are plenty of dimsum (both steamed and fried), noodle station and dessert station. The recommended dish is lemongrass pudding. Haha. Yeah, I go right to dessert. Anyway, tracing back the steps a little bit, dimsum are generally tasty and everyone in the group is crazy about the fried rice. Then I’m back at lemongrass pudding. If you think about ordering ala carte, choose Pork Belly, Roasted Duck, and Suckling Pig. Well, all this delicacy is only for Rp. 135k nett/pax dan valid on Sunday from 10 AM to 2 PM.</span><br />

That’s probably what we brought back from this year’s Valentine’s Day. It’s all started with Fiona’s Valentine’s Day celebration at Fat Shogun. <br /><br />Hello, This is Fiona.</b><br /><br />I’m not celebrating Valentine’s Day with flower and chocolate, but a nice rooftop (romantic) dinner is hard to resist. Fat Shogun is located on the rooftop of BTPN building. There’s this simple Fat Shogun sign, dominated by the gold and black colors and the city lights reflected on the large windows. A bar is located on the corner. Needless to say, this place is romantic. </span><br />

Called "Epicurian Of Nikkei," a romantic dinner journey related to Nikkei history. Nikkei is a combination of Japanese and Peruvian cuisine. So, set aside the thought of complicated stock exchange when you taste each meal. Its origin can be traced back to late 1800 when the Japanese worker immigrated to Peru, to work on railroads. Some of them stayed and the cuisines blended into what’s known today as Nikkei.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Trio Starters</b><br />The story began “when Japanese started integrating Peruvian, bringing their culinary heritage." There are three small dishes (nigiri & classic rolls Ceviche and tiradito) are served on one plate as you start your dining journey. Ceviche, a popular seafood menu on South American coast, is buttery and spicy. Then comes the classic Japanese dish of Salmon Nigiri and Tuna Classic Roll. Fresh and tasty. The third one is a little bit of both, reflecting the influence of Japanese immigrants on Peruvian cookery. It’s called Tiradito, a Peruvian Raw Fish dish, similar to carpaccio with spicy sauce.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /><br /><b>Crab Salad</b><br />"The fusion of the cuisines cultures didn't happen overnight, but took place progressively." So next comes the stack of lettuce, seaweed, lump crab topped with salmon skin. served with homemade Thai Goma dressing. I must say this one is the best. Lettuce is fresh, crab is fresh and two thumbs up for the seaweed. The Thai Goma, a fresh and sour sesame dressing, complete the meal altogether.</span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /><b>Sea Bass/Salmon Misoyaki</b><br />The main course marks the beginning “to combine these two parallel worlds to form the peak wave in the Nikkei trilogy". Because the description reads “choices of Sea bass or Salmon, 36 hours marinated with our Misoyaki sauce then Gratin to perfection,” me and hubby ordered one each. Misoyaki (soy sauce combined with sugar) is as advertised on the menu, really tasty. Turned out both are as delicious. But if you have to choose, go with the buttery sea bass.</span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /><b>Chocolate Panna Cotta</b></span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This Milk Chocolate, mix berries & vanilla ice cream dish makes us want to believe that Nikkei was indeed "What a sweet Journey." The ending is always how we had always wanted it to be, sweet. The combination of Chocolate Panna Cotta plated on the bottom and the sour fresh mix berries ice cream brings out the best on each side. Just like the Japanese and Peruvian cuisine, let’s just say that both blend well.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b>It’s super close to my house, so I’ve been thinking about trying out this place, but it wasn’t until my family threw the “Saturday brunch” idea on the table that weekend. Park 5 is a boutique hotel, nicely decorated with contemporary touch. Yu is located on the left side of the hotel’s reception. I think the area is where hotel guests go for their breakfast and that’s why Yu is only open from 11AM onwards. But that Saturday, we had to wait until 11.15 because the table isn’t ready.<br /><br />The first impression of Yu is a hip café-resto with wooden, marble tables, unfinished details and wild flowers in a bottle. While waiting for the table, we decide on what to order. Yu has a special menu consisting of food and drinks and we’ve waited for almost an hour for the food to arrive on our table so the anticipation is high. Here’s what we order:</span><br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /><b>Fried Chicken Sandwich, 55k</b><br />It’s more chicken burger with chili mayo and pickles. Surprisingly no fries come with this dish, which is served on a long plate. But they put generous piece of the fried chicken inside and just the right amount of dressing. Hubby loves it so much.<br /><br /><b>Taiwanese Fried Chicken, 65k </b><br />Yes, another chicken, but this one is a large chicken steak cut with poached egg on top. They replaced the yolk as the previous one broke before it reached our table. Yeay, happy yolk! It tastes good. They use sweet potato for the crunch and teriyaki mix. Well, it’s the same with the chicken inside the burger.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /><b>Chicken Congee, 56k</b><br />The third chicken on our table and I figured all of you are laughing. What makes chicken congee at Yu any different from the comfort food you find on the cart? This one comes with egg yolk in a slightly different off-white color. The congee also mixed with teriyaki sauce. I hate plain congee, so I love the taste of this one.<br /><br /><b>Niu Rou Mian (Noodle Beef), 65k</b><br />This one is not chicken because my mom doesn’t eat one. She likes this one because it reminds her of the dish she had in Penang. The beef are plenty and the portion is okay. It uses sesame sauce so it smells good. The noodle texture is large and tasty. I managed to steal a slurp before she finished with the bowl. <br /><br /><b>Dessert is Mantao with Vanilla Ice Cream and Nutella.</b><br />Fried Mantao with vanilla ice cream and something that I originally thought as a chocolate ice cream. Apparently it’s Nutella! This is the winning dish for me and my sister. Okay, slightly cheating because it’s dessert and a warm dessert melts everyone’s heart. We love fried mantao. I can see myself go crazy about it. It’s comfort food.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br />I was hoping to see more non-chicken dishes on the menu and differentiation between the chicken dishes on the menu. Yes, they’re tasty but they’re more or less of the same taste. But Yu did a great job overall and we had a great brunch.<br /><br />Yu only opens for two months on weekend Jakarta. From Friday (5PM – 1AM), to Saturday (11AM-1AM) and Sunday (11AM – 3PM). Try out their extended Valentine’s Day special this weekend.<br /><br /><i>Where is this?<br />Park5 Cilandak, Jalan Intan RSPP No. C5, Jakarta Selatan 12430</i></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br />But before we go any further, let’s take a 5-minutes crash course on the food. Just in case your date asks for recommendation. Galette, flat round or free form crusty cakes made with buckwheat flour, is more on the savory side. The ones arrived on our table bears the name of (arguably) handsome European guys: Antoine, Nicholas and Sebastien.</span><br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Antoine is Ham, Mozzarella, Mushroom Caviar, Egg and Truffle Oil. This dish can use more Truffle oil. Nicholas is for the meat lovers. The Galette is filled wih sausages, chorizo, egg, ham (choice of turkey and pork), mozzarella & Dijon mayo. Plenty of meat, great if you need extra protein in your diet. Turkey is delicious. Sebastien is a comfortable brunch of Chicken Breast, Egg, Tomatoes, Mozzarella, Sauteed Mushroom, Pumpkin and Dijon Mayo on one plate.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Moving on to Crepes. Crepe is a very thin pancake made of wheat flour. Galette is actually a type of crepe. But if you say “Crepe” the first thing that comes to mind is the sweet kind. There are three crepes that arrived on the table: Amelie, Marie Lou and Indah. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br />Amelie is Fresh Orange, Caramelized Almond,Chocolate Sauce, Caramel & Vanilla Ice Cream. A balanced taste between sweet and sour. Marie Lou brings the fun with Whole Banana, Chocolate Hazelnut Spread, Grated Cheese, Vanilla Cream and Chocolate Ice Cream. Indah, staying true to its name is an Indonesian-inspired crepe, featuring Es Teler inspired Crepe with Jack Fruit, Dried Coconut, Avocado, Grass Jelly, Pink Tapioca, Pandan Cream & Coconut Ice Cream. She’s the latest addition to the Kitchenette menu.</span><br />

Fiona create a galette – crepe fusion instead. So, the best toppings so far is oreo, banana, vanilla ice cream.. and finish with almond. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The hotel isn’t that far from Cikarang toll exit. I wasn’t paying attention because I was busy with make up haha. But I know it’s not far because we’re turning into the hotel right away. And the lobby took me by surprised. Wait, this isn’t Holiday Inn? The wall behind reception desk is wooden and as I looked around, symmetrical sofas, block pillars and wooden stairs are simply amazing. It was still Christmas mood when I arrived, so they have this Christmas tree from recycled bottle that caught my attention right away. Brilliant. Then the welcome drink arrived, a lemon mix beverage, and the staycation officially starts.<a name='more'></a><br />Room is a deluxe with large open windows. Make it even better with pool-view. On the first glance, the area seems pretty with sofa beds by the circular swimming pools. The trees and greens remind me of Bali, unexpected because this actually is a business hotel in Cikarang. </span></div>

It’s spacious with amazing amenities including table, iron and bathrobe. The bathroom has a joined bathtub – shower, equipped with eco-friendly and paraben-free soap. Must be real comfortable to sit on the bed, watching TV and sleep in the bathrobe, but stomach is growling and it’s time for lunch.</span></div>

<b style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The name Wilshire reminds us of one of the main roads of Los Angeles. But the Wilshire we discovered at Senopati is a comfy bar and restaurant located on top of a cake shop. Its street-facing window gives the much-needed romantic atmosphere, perfect for your Valentine’s Day.</b></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b>We found out that the name was indeed inspired by Wilshire Boulevard. And it translates to the cuisines. The foods combine local flavors with international cuisines, and are meant “to liven up Wilshire experience in Jakarta by made several fusion dishes,” said Cla Lisca as General Manager of Wilshire as quoted by the press release. The famous boulevard itself is a melting pot of different cultures which settled down in that side of California. Staying true to its name, well, we know Los Angeles is one lively place, the restaurant also provides extensive wine and liquor collection. Wilshire’s Executive Chef, Dolly Chia, is a University of Southern California and Le Cordon Bleu graduate. And I’m lucky enough to taste the following:<a name='more'></a><br /><b>Appetizer<br />Chicken Tortilla Soup (85k)</b><br />Chicken Soup made with corn tortillas, red onion, sliced avocado, cilantro, lime and sour cream.<br />Speed up! The top of the cheese will melt otherwise. I love this from the firs dig although I was expecting a baguette or likewise to dip on the soup. Nachos would be awesome too. And please have larger tortilla. Overall, it’s tasty.<br /><b><br />Grilled BBQ Chicken Tacos (95k)</b><br />Tacos containing guacamole, Monterey jack cheese, red onion and cilantro.<br />What’s California without Taco haha. I love this one, maybe because I love Mexican food? I bet Ruth would love this as well; she’s always looking for great Mexican food to munch on. The fillings are generous and the meat is soft. Add on to that, the unforgettable cheese.</span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Thai Coconut Roasted Pork Ribs (225k)</b><br />Prik nahm pla sauce, the classic Thai condiment sauce and coconut stock cooked with pork ribs roasted.<br />I think this one is rather plain. It’s not as tender as I expected but somehow I find the sauce tasty. Sour, Spicy and Fresh. <br /><b><br />Pan Seared Dory Infused with Passion Fruit (155k)</b><br />Fresh passion fruit sauce poured over Pan Seared Dory and served with potato cubes.<br />A little on the salty side, but the fish is tender and doesn’t smell fishy (it’s what matters to me). I expect more of a passion fruit flavor and a hint of sourness on the dish.<br /><b><br />Dessert<br />Chocolate Dream</b><br />Made of dark chocolate ganache, chocolate glaze, vanilla ice cream, chopped caramelized cashew.<br />If you’re a chocolate fan, you’ll love this.

And I want to challenge you to it.<br /><b>Insane Fried Rice (65k)</b><br />Some call it crazy, some call it mad. But here it’s insane. This is a new twist to the traditional Indonesian fried rice better known as Nasi Goreng Gila. What’s insane is the generous toppings of sausage, meatballs and tomato stir-fry. A portion for share, but as this may quickly become a favorite dish, you’d probably want to order for yourself. Think beyond your ordinary Nasi Gila.<br /><br /><b>Pepper Beef Sirloin Sandwich (145k)</b><br />Focaccia bread sandwich containing USPA Prime Sirloin, sautéed mushroom, Monterey jack cheese, fried onion rings, mesclun and served with chips.<br />Huge and delicious bread. Balanced with generous fillings and tasty meat. Tender enough for those thinking about taking one large bite.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /><b>Appetizer & Soup.</b><br /><b>Prawn Mango Pomelo Salad served with Crispy Wonton Skin</b>. A delicious hint of sour appeared in the center of this mix. Fresh prawn (it’s a standard) and fun texture from the crispy wonton. Second appetizer is needed so we called in for <b>Scallop Green Dumpling</b>. A delicious skin is wrapping generous filling. You can forget those tasteless dumpling skins as this one is created with the same thought and love. This is our favorite and will get you back for more.Next is <b>Asparagus Crab Meat Soup</b>. Finding greens in the mug is a pleasant surprise. Crab meat is great too.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b>Well, expect a long line over the weekend at Paris van Java. You’ll never miss it because the yogurt store has a large sign and located right in front. The yellow and blue exterior will grab your attention. Then the white minimalist interior gives the “I’m in mood for yoghurt” feel. On one of the wall, there’s an unfinished sketch of Bandung city from a mural artist Tufheil. Unfinished because it’s done partially every Saturday. So if you’re a regular visitor at this place, you’d notice the changes. Come on Saturday sometimes before March to see how the sketching process goes. Saturday is also special because young chef Martin Natadipraja is here to serve you his yogurt creation. <a name='more'></a></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>So what should we order? </b><br /><ol>
<li><b>Yofocinno (Espresso, Caramel and Yogurt). </b>First impression, it’s fresh. The singularity comes in the mix of espresso’s bitterness and Caramel/Yogurt’s sweet hint. You can even taste the acidity of the coffee which is great for balance. Coffee lovers must try this one. </li>
<li><b>Mother of Dragon (Plain Yogurt, Red Dragon Fruit, Banana).</b> Don’t be intimidated by the name, this drink isn’t that fierce. It’s a favorite for the healthy side of you, with sour and sweet combination of dragon fruit and banana. </li>
<li><b>Yogurt Coffee Pannacotta.</b> Personally think this is genius. The Italian classic arrived with a twist of sweet and sour, but needed a little more coffee. Still good and we’d say you need to order more than 1 to avoid disappointment on the last bite. </li>
<li><b>Yo-dip Wings.</b> Wings? Well, you heard it right. Yogurt is in the tartar sauce, making it fresh. The flavorful wings (Rp35k) is best eaten while they’re hot. </li>
<li><b>Chicken Nachos with Thai Sauce (Rp35k). </b>The Chicken is wrapped with smashed nachos. Fried to crunch.The Dipping sauce is refreshing, sour, a little hint of spicy and well, delicious. </li>
<li><b>Salmon Salad with Dill Yogurt Dressing (Rp40k). </b>If you’re into everything healthy, this salad is pretty perfect for you. There are egg, veggie and a large cut of salmon, served with yogurt dressing (sauce?) to create salad extraordinary. Warning: not meant for sharing because this is yummy. </li>
<li><b>Gyoza with Goma-Yo Dip (Rp35k)</b> is freshly-made gyoza with generous fillings. </li>
<li><b>YoLo Smoothies Bowl (Rp40k)</b> will be the happiest ending you have with sour yogurt. Banana, peanut butter, chocolate, granola and almond chopped mixed into plain yogurt. The portion is rather large. </li>

And they're not just about food, because if you look around they have brands for shopping as well. You're in a mall after all. Check out noesa (Handmade Woodcraft, fashion, lifestyle and kitchenware), Gammara ( genuine leather fashion product) and Morning Whistle (basic wardrobe for men and women).<br />

The only downside of this place is that it's a pop up store, only opened for 3 months. Expect long line, it's worth the price and waiting time. Hope they'll open in Jakarta too because this is perfect for healthy gathering with friends. Or lite bite after workout. <br /><br />So, make sure you join the yogurt euphoria. <br /><br /> <i>Where is This?<br />Yoforia<br />Paris Van Java, Resort Level, </i></span><div>

I know what Gordi is, so when a friend of mine, Barista Wahyu Nazar posted a picture, I was beyond excited. I asked him whether it's open for public and where exactly is this place. Apparently, I happened to pass through the area with my mom and sister without any plan to stop by. But I saw Gordi and I know we have to stop. The HQ is hidden on a neighborhood at Jeruk Purut area, which is real close with my wedding venue. Should have noticed that earlier.</span><div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br />Despite being tucked away somewhere, this place has parking. An open space to the left matches the glass building on the right. Glass building is always good news.<a name='more'></a></span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br />I’m crossing to another world through the glass doors. My attention immediately falls on the room with coffee equipment and a beautiful sink. Yes, you heard that right, I'm really talking about sink. Inside the Headquarter, there are large tables designed for meetings, workshops and probably something trendy like co-working. You can close this part, separating it from the main area for privacy.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Walking out, I encountered a barista and the house coffee area. Gordi uses La Marzocco machine. Behind the barista is a comfortable seats and sofas for those coming for tranquil conversations. Halfway through my exploration, I found out that the design is done by Abimantra from AplusA Architects. No wonder it's very homely while still holding true to minimalist interior layout concept. It's also bright which is a dream comes true for picture-snapping people like me. The amazing attention to detail makes me want to go house hunting right away.<br /><br />For some people, cigarette and coffee are like husband and wife, can't be enjoyed separately. There's a backyard at Gordi HQ that can accommodate your needs. I personally imagine picnic here while sipping on cold brew on a warm day. </span><br />

Food are decent, best enjoyed with coffee. Gordi uses a mix of Lombok, Flores Bajawa and West Java for the coffee. I hope they'll add beans from different parts of the world.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br />If you're curious, yes this is Gordi’s real headquarter. No wonder they build it super comfy, imagine working in a spot like this. I wouldn't want to go home.</span></div>

This is Fiona’s adventure to discover the delicacy of contemporary China.<br /><br />Ni Hao. This is Fiona.</b><br /><br />I've been to Shang Palace couple of time. When Jia takes over the premise, I feel the difference, but in a good way. It’s still a Chinese restaurant, with a young, vibrant and modern feeling. I personally love the interior, which I think has taken the right path to present China. Tokyo-based firm Bond was in charge of the interior, creating an update from its former dining place with shades of cobalt and a range of earth colors. The dining area can sit up to 122 guests and the private dining rooms can host 20 guests each. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br />It’s hard to stop taking pictures because the place is so photogenic. The big tables are everywhere and sofas for 4 people or less. There’s a small transparent glass room for those who want to see the Peking Duck roasting. Yummy, I can imagine the smell of Peking Duck being opened by the chef. <br /><br />Guan Yin Tea Cold Brew is waiting for me at the end of my journey around the restaurant. Served in a transparent bottle, it gives another hint of modernity. It’s really refreshing and I always love Chinese tea. I’m glad to find a cold brew that I can enjoy in a hot mid-day. The menu book is a magazine. You’d be surprise.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Crispy Salmon Skin with Spicy Salt (</b></span><b style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Rp</b><b style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">48K)</b><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Salmon skin has always been a success, including at Jia. This one is extra thin, extra crispy without the strong fish smell. Mix it with crunchy spices underneath for salty touch. The kind of food that would come and gone in a flash over opening conversation.<br /><br /><b>Crispy Fried Beef in Honey Sauce (</b></span><b style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Rp</b><b style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">58K)</b><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Honestly, this is like an awesome beef jerky (or better known as dendeng). The honey sauce is unbeatable, adding sweetness to the crunch. <br /><br />Then the <b>DIMSUM </b>arrives.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /><b>Steamed Pork Siew Mai topped with Abalone(</b></span><b style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Rp</b><b style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">28K)</b><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Siew Mai is the dim sum star, and at Jia it’s the same. A large abalone on top makes this pork Siew Mai something you should finish at one bite. I don’t think any other sauces (like the regular chili sauce that often seen by dimsum) is necessary. This dimsum is the restaurant’s signature and if you love abalone, you have to try this. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Another dimsum classic that, well, either you love this or you don’t. The same way with cooking it, some restaurant failed, others ace it well. This one is delicious, trust me. So, give this a try.</span><br />
<br style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;" />
<b style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Steamed Glutinous Rice wrapped in Lotus Leaf (</b><b style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Rp</b><b style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">28K)</b><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Otherwise known as Lo Ma Kai. It’s packed with salted egg inside. The only thing I can say about this is if you want to eat more of other dishes, better ignore the Lo Ma Kai calling you for more bite. It’s hard to resist.</span><br />
<br style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;" />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The sauce is brilliant. The dumpling skin is thin, with generous fillings. You won’t be disappointed.</span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">If you don’t mind garlic, then this one should be on the list of your Dimsum. This pork ribs has strong garlic flavor (which I love) combined with the tender pork ribs.<br /><br /><b>Steamed Pork Siew Mai Topped with Tobiko (</b></span><b style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Rp</b><b style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">38K)</b><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Well, Siew Mai is really the star. There’s another dish arrived, this time with Tobiko on top. This one tastes so good and I’m glad I love Siew Mai with large prawn and sheer wrappings like this one. <br /><br /><b>Steamed Barbequed Pork Buns (</b></span><b style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Rp</b><b style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">36K)</b><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">What’s a dimsum without pork buns? I’d say this is the greatest pork bun to date with its generous fillings and the right amount of sweetness filled inside. The bun is soft too. <br /><br /><b>Steamed Custard Buns with Salted Egg Yolk (</b></span><b style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Rp</b><b style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">32K)</b><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The art to enjoy this one is making sure the salted egg yolk filling is still melting in your mouth. So eat this immediately.<br /><b><br />Steamed Soup Crab Meat and Pork Dumpling (</b></span><b style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Rp</b><b style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">36K)</b><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Fans of xiao long bao would probably want to try Jia’s version.<br /><br /><b>Steamed Barbecue Pork Rice Rolls (</b></span><b style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Rp</b><b style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">34K)</b><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">My gloom for not finding the cakwe-filled Chong Fan lead me to this dimsum, and it turned out to be delicious. I have made the right choice.<br /><br />Overall, Jia’s dimsum is something you would enjoy with family and friends, whichever you decided to order. I believe there’s something for everyone here, from the classic xiao long bao to the extravagant abalone-topped siew mai. I barely use any sauce, aside from a drop of chilli sauce. It’s good as it is.<br /><br />Let’s move on to the <b>a la carte</b>.<br /><br /><b>Crispy Roasted Pork (Rp98k)</b><br />The most important thing about this dish is the fact that it’s not soggy. It’s crispy on the top, which assure the dish to always get a spot on my order at Jia.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Baked Scallop stuffed with Shrimp Paste & Homemade Bean Crud in Barbecue Sauce (Rp168K)</b><br />Despite its fancy name, this dish is humble on the mouth. Soft tofu and easy-to-chew scallop combined with tasty sauce that isn’t overwhelming. Better to enjoy while it’s warm.<br /><br /><b>Shrimp Wonton Noodle (Rp58K) & Lan Zhou La Mian Noodle Soup with Beef Shank (Rp68K)</b><br />This dish reminds me of Shanghai, with the warm noodle soup to fight the cold winter. Well, who doesn’t love noodle, it’s our comfort food.<br /> <br /><b>Deep Fried Swan with Almond Sauce (Rp32K)</b><br />You will see these photogenic swans everywhere on your social media timeline. They are so pretty, as well as delicious. Taste like Chinese cake with almond sauce inside.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">If you’re talking Chinese restaurant, you have to try their duck. The classic, yet exceptional dish is served right on your table by the chef. The skin is rolled inside a think sliced pancake alongside sauces and veggies. My first bite of this duck is a mix of crunchy, juicy and, well, yummy. The meat cooking method is “wrapped in lettuce,” which is chopped and mixed with spices. We just have to scoop them and wrap it in lettuce.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Even though Jia is located in a hotel, I would still go there whenever I need to eat somewhere comfortable. I would stop by and eat their dimsum anytime (since I can eat dimsum twice a day – yes you hear it right, haha). This place is also perfect for families, they have everything my mom and dad likes. My sisters would love this restaurant too. For a Chinese restaurant they have a real contemporary ambiance. If I have to sum up the dishes here are classic with a twist. Led by Executive Chinese Chef Christopher Chai, who has been with Shangri La Hotel, Jakarta since 2008, the culinary team behind Jia is ready to serve you their masterpieces.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">If you’re in the middle of Chinese New Year meal planning, I would recommend Jia for you. The restaurant has set menus that you can choose from Rp. 988.000++/pax which already include Yu Sheng to start with, fish dish for the good luck and Nian Gao to end the celebration. Some dishes already make your tummy growl just by reading the name, because it’s something like “Deep-fried Lobster with Salted Egg Yolk,” “Steamed Marble Goby Fish with Black Fungus, Enoki Mushroom in Lotus Leaf” and “Barbecue Suckling Pig and Jelly Fish.”</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The holiday decoration is more helpful in creating “I’m home for Christmas” feeling. Red ribbons on chairs paired the leaves-and-pine Christmas décor, as well as the candles and Mason-jar-turned snowglobe table centerpieces. However, it’s a restaurant, and while at home Mom’s cooking of inherited recipes always won everyone’s heart, here you have to order dishes that suit your holiday mood. Here’s what I ordered after asking for recommendations:</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /><b>Gioi's Signature Crispy Duck</b><br /><br />If the dish has the restaurant’s name, it screams local. Crispy juicy marinated duck, served with Gioi's rice, and jukut kalasan on the side. Jukut is a type of mix veggie, native of Bali and for me it's slightly similar to Urap. It's real tasty. This dish can be ordered half or whole, and we made the biggest mistake of ordering just half even though for a "half", this dish is generous. It's crispy and when opened, the meat is juicy, the smell is good and the spices are well-marinated. It's real crispy that I can munch on the bone haha. The rice is different (boyfie-turned-hubbie surprisingly liked the rice), it's fragrant and covered by Jukut.<br /><br />Served with 3 different types of Sambal from my favorite mild Sambal Matah (I'm no good for things too spicy) with kecombrang and onion flavor to the one especially created for the spicy lovers.<br /><br /><b>Asian Steak Tartar </b><br /><br />A fusion on the list which is described as premium tenderloin marinated in Gioi's Asian dressing, fresh herbs, served chilled with caramelized melinjo crackers. I didn’t expect this to use pomegranate seeds and it blends well with the chopped, medium rare steak. Then there are the melinjo crackers to give the crunchy texture. I’m sure this dish doesn’t need much to be loved.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /><br /><b>Dragon Fruit Brule</b><br /><br />I’m not big fan of Creme Brule because the burnt part is bitter. But I ordered this one just for fun, and hubbie is a big fan of dessert. This one is a twist on the traditional brule, served with dragon fruit compote and coconut ice cream. But when it arrived, I was excited because it’s an attractive dragon fruit compote, ice cream and edible flowers. A bit crunchy underneath. Hubbie was real excited and I guess this dessert has brightened up his day. He let me have one spoon and yes, this is amazing. I’m glad to find a brule I can enjoy. <br /><br />Oh, I ordered <b>Kalamansi Cypher Tea </b>for drinks. Fresh orange juice, a sour and cool combination.</span></div>

While it’s exciting to start a new life with someone special, but unboxing your belongings aren’t as fun. You couldn’t find things you want to use and you didn’t know where you put the clothes you want to wear. Needless to say, when it comes to food, eating out and take away have always been the options.<br /><br />That’s Fiona’s life for the past three weeks. </b></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b>How about cooking instant food, or what we love to call, semi-homemade? So, the other day, Fiona gave it a try. “The key ingredient is meat, because I love meat. The others are things are easily available at Supermarket shelves. Plus a bit of leftover veggies in the fridge.” To this, Ruth is frowning, “Don’t tell me, you’ve been living off salads as emergency food.” Well, marriage life supposed to be romantic and fairy-tale like, especially when you finally have your own kitchen after years of using your mom’s. But apparently it’s not as stress-free.<br /><br />So here it goes, creating a simple meal, without sacrificing luxury. </span><br />

<ul><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">
<li>Start to boil water on pan for the noddle.</li>
<li>While you wait, sprinkle enough salt and pepper to the steak cutlet. Add on Rosemary and Basil afterwards. Leave it marinated for 30 minutes. </li>
<li>Grind the nuts and mix the salad. Then mix the sauces. Set aside, return to the boiling pan and start cooking Bakmi Mewah.</li>
<li>Return to your steak. Heat the pan and pour enough Olive Oil. Put the steak inside, pan fried for 2 minutes on each side. I like my meat medium rare.</li>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Ruth:</b> You know, I read somewhere that the right time to take your noodle out the water pan is when the water starts boiling. <br /><b>Fiona: </b>Why?<br /><b>Ruth:</b> I think it has something to do with texture.<br /><br />Cooking the perfect instant noodle is important. Especially when you're thinking luxury food where everything is cooked into perfection, then the noodle should be treated the same way. Dip the dry noodle into the hot water but don't stir them. When they're soften, they will separate on their own. Take the noodle out when the water started to boil. You'll ended up with noodle that's not too soft or too hard. At least that's what Ruth did when she's cooking instant noodle. It hasn't failed her so far.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Why Bakmi Mewah? When you’re thinking about creating a semi-homemade dish with a luxury touch on it, you’d search for something different as the main ingredients. Bakmi Mewah, as expected of its name, feels right when paired with something like steak cutlet and salad. Their slightly thicker and fuller textures (but soft enough in the mouth) ask for something more than the comforting sunny side up eggs. So steak cutlet it is. We’re happy to find that this sesame-flavored noddle fits our fusion dish idea real well. The inviting smells of the cooked steak blends well with the curious aroma of freshly drained noodle. Just in case you're wondering, Bakmi Mewah is a brand under Mayora, which has almost 40 years of experience in consumer goods. It's the first instant noodle to come with actual chicken meat and mushroom packed inside the box.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">It's not the first visit to Outback, and definitely not going to be the last. We even knew Outback before we knew each other. <br />R: My first visit was probably back when it was first opened in Pondok Indah. My dad is big on steak and Western food, so we'll go there as family. <br />F: I forgot when was my first visit. It was a long time ago at the Ratu Plaza branch. But I eat at Outback often, especially after visiting the gym. <br /><br />Well, we might not remember the details of our first Outback visit, but we do remember our favorite meals, and are more than happy to share them with you. It's Christmas after all! </span><br />

Kookaburra Wings (yes, borrowing the native Australian bird's name) is chicken wings tossed in a savory blend of secret spices which comes with cool creamy Blue Cheese dressing and celery. Choose from mild, medium and hot. Crispy Fried Mushroom is lightly breaded fried mushroom served with spicy ranch dressing. Up for a healthier first bite? Aussie Chicken Cobb Salad (Rp. 124,000) with choices of grilled of crispy chicken, served on a bed of fresh greens, with Monterey Jack and Cheddar cheeses, crispy chopped beef bacon, chopped egg and diced tomato. <br /><br />Moving on to the main course, Ribeye is the champion. Available in two choices: 8oz (Rp.304,000) and 10oz (Rp. 314,000), this dish is described as "well-marbeled, juicy and savory." In fact, well, it is well-marbeled, juicy and savory. But mostly their food are up to expectation. Baby Back Ribs (Rp.334,900 for 14oz and Rp.182,900 for 7oz) are as satisfying. Succulent, saucy, and each rack is smoked and grilled to perfection in tangy BBQ sauce. Both are served with Aussie Fries. </span><br />

It’s the same stuffs all over again, served on the same plate at the same time. But PHD always comes with new innovation and before you know it, there’s another reason to return and order another round. So, what’s new this time?</b><br /><b><br />PHD is back with BBQ Frankfurter Pizza and Duo Cheesy Crust.</b></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b>We know uncut sausages are not exactly what you expect on a pizza. Well, it was a surprise at first, but it’s written on PHD menu. BBQ Frankfurter Pizza is all about sausages, and you can even request sausages crust if you’re craving for more on one pan. The sausages taste different from the one served as individual servings at PHD. This one is better, tastier and there’s equal amount for everyone. Otherwise, we can imagine competition over who gets the better slice.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The more cheese the better. For us, that’s the key for every dish in pizza restaurant. So when we saw Duo Cheesy Crust, this could be the answer to our Christmas wish. What’s Duo Cheesy Crust? There’s two type of cheese crust in one pizza: mozzarella and cheddar. It feels like you get the best of both worlds because what’s better than sausages and cheese together in one dish. The pizza is available in two sizes: regular and jumbo, and you can select whichever crust you prefer. The Duo Cheesy Crust can also be selected for your favorite pizza.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br />Don’t think too much, you can get all those in one pack, complete with side dishes and drinks. This is another thing we like about PHD, we don’t have to spend too much time browsing the menu, mix and matching different dishes. There is a package of BBQ Frankfurter Pizza with Duo Cheesy Crust, Sunny Peach Flatbread and 2 lite drinks (cost us Rp130.000). Although we’re not familiar with Sunny Peach, we do have our favorite flatbread. That doesn't mean we're not up for something new. However, if you’re curious, Sunny Peach is said to be sweet and fresh with the dough sweetened a little bit. It’s probably delicious served cold. So when we order this next time, we’ll refrigerate it first to make it similar to fruit pie.<br /><br />Our recommendation? Psst, this is a secret. It’s Duo Cheesy Crust and the sausage together in one bite.<br /><br />What’s your favorite way to enjoy Duo Cheesy Crust? Please proceed to phd.co.id or call 1500-600 to order and tell us how you enjoy your meal. With PHD, there’s no reason to wait in hunger because it’ll arrive in 30 minutes or you’ll get a free-pizza voucher.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b>Held at Gran Mahakam Hotel private room, I was welcomed by the decoration of Christmas ball tree as its centerpieces. There’s a photogenic corner, with overall theme of white, silver and gold. It’s a White Christmas feeling. Elegant decorations using white paper flowers and Christmas balls as well as charming chandelier of silver and gold Christmas balls tree.<a name='more'></a><br />The luncheon opened with bread and flower-shaped butter. I truly appreciate the details. Then comes the appetizer, a juicy Lobster Salad with Walnut dan Salmon Tartae. The dish is a refreshing alternative to seafood and a creative way to upgrade a salad. Seafood is still presence in the next dish to arrive on the table: Cream Edamame with Scallop Dumpling. Sometimes, you decide to go out your usual destinations with winter holiday and this is exactly what Edamame do. Forget asparagus or mushroom, Gran Mahakam chose to go bold with Edamame. The scallop isn’t chewy and the soup is delicious. I figured they need to add croutons on the side, well, I dipped the welcome bread instead.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Dessert is like a present we finally got because we’ve been good all year. We’ve been good all lunch-time finishing each dish. So Exotic Fresh Fruit and Black Beauty Cake opened the dessert time, making way to kue cucur. It’s like watching Thanksgiving parade and wait for Santa Claus to appear in the end. I’m not picky about cake so the Kue Cucur Rasa Pandan dan Gula Jawa is what attracting my attention. It’s soft in the middle and crunchy around the edges. Pandan smells good and enhances the food taste. With this dish, I’d say Gran Mahakam successfully takes traditional dessert into the next level without losing its original touch.<br /><br />Their attention-to-detail won’t disappoint you with each food and plating are carefully thought and planned. I would order this for a holiday dinner package. This fills not only your stomach but also your heart. <br /><br />Happy Holidays.<br /><br />Where is this?<br /><br />Hotel Gran Mahakam<br />Jl.

<b style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Al Nafoura, a beautiful dining place with Middle Eastern ambiance at Le Meridien Jakarta is interesting. The Mediterranean gate and interior joined the dim lighting and warm welcome. </b><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br />Terracotta brown flooring and stone walls contrast the cushions and rugs. Then my attention turn to the table. Middle Eastern and Mediterranean food in general doesn't differ much from those we're familiar with growing up. The secret, Chef Ahmad Jamil said, is using right balance of natural spices and ingredients. While spices like Saffron and Zaatar are still imported from Middle Eastern countries, other ingredients including eggplant, chickpeas and parsley are of local produce. </span><br />

This one looks like vegetable stick and dipping sauce. <br /><br />You eat them with pita bread, opened it and filled it with everything. It fits with everything. Can be eaten as pickles or in-between food. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Main Course </b><br /><b>Shish Tawouk </b><br />Charcoal grilled marinated chicken skewer served with garlic sauce and your choice of oriental rice or homemade fried potato sticks. <br /><br />Oriental rice is tasty, thanks to the abundance of spices. Just eating the rice is enough for me but the chicken is cooked to perfection. Juicy and not dry. <br /><br /><b>Ma Akoulate Bahrieh Ma Hara </b><br />Medley of baby lobster, jumbo prawn, green mussels, white clams and batik clams, in spicy creamy harissa sauce and fresh coriander served with vermicelli rice <br /><br />It's spicy! Well, to my standard that is. But the lobster prawns and mussels are well-marinated. So this is a well-rounded dish, especially to those spicy food fans. <br /><br /><b>Haruf Ouzi </b><br />Braised lamb shank ouzi style with oriental rice, assorted nuts and yogurt cucumber mint sauce <br /><br />Okay, this has to be the best one, yoghurt and mint sauce are the characteristics of this dish. Add tender well-marinated lamb shack and rice to the mix. I have to prevent myself from drooling while writing this. Let's come back for this! It's the bomb! No wonder Chef Ahmad recommends this as a favorite. </span><br />

With "Halawa" literally means "Sweet" in Arabic, we can expect sugar rush coming from the long plate of desserts seved at Al Nafoura. The Italian classic Panna Cotta get a Middle Eastern touch with saffron, but is a bit too sweet for me. Lebanese dessert Baklava is filled with date and pistachio, served with honey, strawberry sauce and fresh mint. Both fillings are awesome that I can't pick side. It's crunchy, sweet on the inside and not overwhelmed with flour like many others I encountered along my culinary journey. Their Tiramisu is the best. Enough said, just have to try their Tiramisu. Don't forget to stop by their Turkish ice cream stall. <br /><br />Step outdoor and spend some sisha time with your best friends at the terrace. Arabic Coffee is also available. This part of the restaurant is really beautiful, with tent like you're in middle east, but without the dry and hot weather. The air conditioner really save the day. Al Nafoura also has Middle Eastern Barbeque on Saturday Night featuring prawns, crab and fish as well as selections of chicken, lamb and beef. Made-to-order live cooking station and Belly Dancing performances add to the entertainment as you dine. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br />I have always love TeSaTe and its sister company, Sate Khas Senayan, because they're best known for its fine Indonesian dishes. But they always go beyond food when it comes to authenticity, like this particular branch of TeSaTe which features familiar ambiance in all three floors. The first floor is the lobby, dominated by the large windows and bright natural lights, plus an outdoor seating area. Right next to the open kitchen there's a large wine cellar. The third floor is a function room, complete with necessary equipments like projector. Then there are Gamelan and other Indonesian music near the stairs. Down the steps is private rooms, separated by partitions. Our area has open garden and waterfall which makes the underground floor isn't so packed. It's cool and simple, a perfect combination of contemporary and traditional corner. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br />So, what's the story with the local wine? The name Sababay is taken from Saba Bay in Gianyar region, Bali. It's 100% Indonesian wine harvested by local Balinese farmers. Andy Fatima, Regional Sales Manager of Sababay explained the process, which is using the stainless steel equipments instead of wooden barrel. Sababay's 6 wine selections have been introduced in 2012 and are the winners of different awards like WSA Wine Challenge Singapore, China Wine & Spirits Awards , Hong Kong International Wine and Spirit Competition and Korea Wine Challenge. As a wine enthusiast, this local bottles really spark my interest. <br /><br />It matches the vision of TeSaTe, holding the wine pairing to introduce local dishes to international customers as well as opening a way for Indonesian food to go international. I think it's a great idea because Indonesian food tend to be this inherited recipe with complicated spices which aren't exactly popular flavors when it comes to world's general preference. Sababay helps the idea that Indonesian dishes are famous for their rich and complicated taste, so what's better than Indonesian wine to pair with them? </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Well, I love Indonesian food so I will support them. So, before I get everyone bored with the rambling, I present you the pairs: </span><br />
<br />
<b style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sababay Winery 'Ludisia' Sweet Red <br />Paired with: <br />Sate Ayam Ponorogo (Juicy chicken in sweet marinade, served with buttery peanut sauce) <br />Rendang ( Tender chunks of beef, slow cooked in a mixture of ground spices and coconut milk) </b><br />
<br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Taken from Sababay Signature Range, this Sweet Red Style can be categorized as dessert wine with a sweet hint that reminds me of a fruit-filled chocolate. Apparently pairing this kind of wine, you have to focus on the dish sauce. Satay sauce transformed into a creamier taste and the spiciness of Rendang turn subtle, leaving you to ask for more of each dish. Why sweet wine? Because the richer the spice, the lighter and sweeter the wine. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /><b>Sababay 'Reserve Red.' <br />Paired with: </b></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Sate Sapi Makasar (Exotic combination of aromatic beef tenderloin with mouth watering, tangy sour starfruit sauce)</b> <br /><br />This wine reminded me of my favorite flavor, full-bodied and predominantly sour and fruity. With its unique stainless steel tank pressed process using burnt charcoal for the smokey hint, the result matches tangy sour starfruit sauce real well. <a href="http://tummyprosperity.blogspot.co.id/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">My fellow blogger pal, Jessica Gaby</a>, is from Makassar and she vouched for its authenticity. Now you can enjoy your hometown's dish at TeSaTe as you hang out with style with wine pairing session. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /><b>Sababay 'White Velvet' <br />Paired with: <br />Dabu-Dabu Fish (A whole sea bass, grilled to a flawless golden crisp and served with the Celebes salsa of red and green Bird's eye chile, red and green fresh tomatoes and sweet shallots) <br />Sate Padang (Tender beef cheek and tongue served with aromatic turmeric sauce) </b><br /><br />The recent Korea Wine Challenge Bronze Medal champion reminds me of summer cocktails and parties. That's why its tangy hint pairs well with seafood like the crunchy Dabu-dabu fish and the poured fresh salsa on top of it. I'm a big fan of its Sate Padang which is soft, easy on the bite and delicious sauce. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /><b>Sababay Moscato D’ Bali <br />Paired With: <br />Kerapu Bakar Jimbaran (The delicate flavor of live Kerapu fish is enchance by grilling in robust Jimbaran marinade) <br />Tahu Udang Berontak (Savory mouthful of succulent prawn and mushroom, encased in a crisp warm tofu envelope) <br />Serabi Solo (Traditional pancake, delicate and flavourful, a popular snack icon of Central Java) </b><br />The fried food best friend, I must say, this sparkling drink fits well with Tahu Udang Berontak. The drink's bubbly personality add more story to the Kerapu grilled fish. I love the wine when chilled. It's the kind that you'd ask for more. I also have a weakness with Indonesian desserts and snacks, so the Surabi is delicious. Filled with cheese and chocolate, ketan (sticky rice), and coconut, the Central Java snack is topped with fermented cassava ice cream. They are crunchy on the outside but fluffy on the inside. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br />TeSaTe is my comfort place to go when I'm hungry. The wine-pairing is a sweet surprise. So enjoy their buy 2 get 1 free for wine by the glass and bottle everyday. Don't know what to pack, get a sip at wine tasting on Friday and Saturday at 6-10PM. Try it before you bring one home. Ask the waiter for the combination, especially if you don't order from the pairing list above. I believe it's our job too, as food bloggers and taste enthusiasts, to spread the word. Indonesia has wine with international quality and local characteristics to fit the rich spice combination of the country. <br /><br /><i>Where is This?<br />TeSaTe<br />JL.
