Steakology : Seven Wonders of Sauces


People, they keep and keep using foreign products as their raw and main materials while there's one humble looking steak house in Tebet area stand strong using local meats as their ideology. Steakology as they called, which is owned by a group of friends including Tantri from Kotak Band and Prabu Revolusi in it. As a guy who now never watches any television programs, i don't know who Prabu Revolusi is, but to look at him personally, this guy has tough charisma and hopefully the steaks aren't as tough as him.

PIK which is stands for Pantai Indah Kapuk along with its never-ending new restaurants popping up like wild mushrooms. From Indonesian to Italian, from Italian to bubble tea, from bubble tea to Chinese foods, PIK have it all. Therefore, completely exploring PIK thoroughly will not be an easy task for anyone including those who lives nearby. And, another new Indonesian restaurant specializing in Soto Betawi  has emerged face to face with Ravino.

Tsurukamedou

Tsurukamedou means the hall of crane and tortoise. 
Ramen chef Masayuki Nomura founded Tsurukamedou and envisions the restaurant as a place to cultivate the great spirit of Tsuru and Kame. The crane flies gracefully and harmoniously to different continents in search of breeding grounds during its long migratory route. the tortoise  moves slowly but definitely and with all the life's energy and purpose.

Tea Time


Don't you guys getting bored with those overwhelming bubble tea outlets that keeps popping out from out of nowhere? For me, it is one never ending battles between the pleasure and the guilt. Spoiled by those sweet, refreshing, yet addictive in some kind of ways cup of tea is surely delightful before that guilt attacks you all over afterwards. But, what about if cup of bubble teas accompanied by delicious Taiwanese snacks? Can't you resist it? Me, myself just lost to them completely. Belly rules the mind, it's a matter of being pleased or pissed.

I've been bored on waiting for quite a long time for new restaurants are seems slowly to popped out replacing the old boring restaurants nearby.

School Food Blomingmari


Another restaurant has popped up at my self proclaimed 2nd home, Central Park. This time is a Korean restaurant franchise from Korea itself, my friend told me and she said, this School Food is somewhat famous amidst Korean and a few days ago, she tried to satisfied her urge toward Korean thingy and this is including her palate and love toward Korean dishes. And, just today she got another sudden crave for Korean feast and she pulled me along to try this School Food just beside an escalator that lead to Blitzmegaplex. Oh no, i am not a fan of Korean, both boyband (except 2PM) and whatever you named it,including the feast. I murmured at heart : "please, be good"

Fountain Lounge : Tea & Tell


My friend invited me over to enjoy a cup of tea just yesterday at Fountain Lounge which is precisely located at Grand Hyatt, heart of Jakarta, which is one of the most vulnerable by Jakartan's hustle bustle and without any further ado, i said yes! since i've got nothing to do on last Monday, so stretching up a bit for an afternoon tea isn't really a bad idea. right? Another reason why i got to popped up because in a matter of fingers counts she will continue her study to Singapore. This is sort of confusing state where to happy or mourn since i'll have a free shelter to stay when i happen to be around. Tee-hee!

Commune 25


Right after one unsatisfactory early dinner at (just call it) Y, me and the three musketeers immediately rushed to one of the nearest place from it and the decision fell on Commune, Senopati which wasn't too appealing at the same time. The only reason why i went to Commune because my one of my friend recommended it to me. As for me who just recently undergone bad dining experience, this poor stomach demanding to be filled soon with scrumptious dishes although its already quite full. I prayed splashily in my heart, this place gotta be good or the distance taken from my house to Senopati will be die in vain.

Madame Lily


Actually i've been passing through this gray swan looking restaurant when i paid Moovina a visit and been curious since then how good this Madame Lily is, since i did some blog walking and slightly dazed how the price range is quite steep. By the time i passed it through, Madame Lily was quite packed with high-aunties (don't bother it, it's only available on my dict) it's my own appellation toward those aunties whose carrying branded bags with peacock high hair style, usually those who enjoys high tea time and pile of arisan (regular social gathering)

Bintang Aceh


Standing under the same roof with Roc N'Ron, this Aceh's foods specialized restaurant bringing an Indonesian fresh air toward the surroundings. I can say the owner is serious on culinary business. Why? He has 3 restaurants on one same terrain and not to mention one karaoke place in the middle of his any other adjacent restaurants.
