Garcon : Wine Pairing Night "Chateau-Fuisse"

A few weeks ago or precisely a month ago, i managed to join Wine Pairing Night "Chateau Fuisse" which took place at Garcon, Plaza Senayan. As a person who's been wanting to visit Garcon since quite a long time ago, this was one of those invitations that i couldn't miss! Thank you so much Ms Kesih from Garcon for having me. Also Ms Haseena of Vinum who enthusiastically explained about the wines and DSP group who played role as good host as well. I'd like to thank you. 

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. 

We Are The Belly Clan!

Sabtu kemarin gue with some of my friends went to one of the newest establishment located at Intiland. Namanya cukup unik dan bikin penasaran "The Belly Clan" dan harusnya sebelum kesini gue reserve tempat dulu deh, soalnya pas sampai disitu tempatnya udah reserved semua tapi kita masih bisa makan disitu sampai jam setengah 8 dan cukup annoying pas setengah 8 itu langsung di kasih tau buat pindah ke bar. Well, next time visit udah wajib banget ya yang namanya reserve apalagi kalau hari Sabtu. Talking about the interior sih sebenarnya biasa aja, masih di dominasi dengan interior kayu berwarna gelap yang cukup enak di lihat mata. Ga terlalu spacey juga, yah menurut gue sih serba standard aja but in a good way. Nothing too fancy or less. Everything just right.

Ginger Li

Kemang is known as one of hippest area in Jakarta. As if it's never sleep, an ever-changing area where new places mainly restaurants, bars or even clubs keep popping out after one another. These days, the clubs aren't that crowded and hip anymore. I visited Barcode about several weeks ago and it was nearly empty, unlike my very first time went there, it was so packed and stuffed. Therefore it is a paradise for a blogger such as myself yet i haven't explore it thoroughly. Ginger Li is a fine dining restaurant which is located at South of Kemang. An upper-class restaurant with refreshing atmosphere with catchy and soothing music, A Chinese restaurant mixed between Oriental-European. I love the qi-bao lady picture embedded on the wall.

This is my no 1 favorite venue at Bandung . The first time i came here with my big family . uh it such a big no went to somewhere as sweet as The Peak with my family . How i hope going here with someone special in the future . But , my prayer hasn't being answered yet . But whatever , i do came here with my sweet companions .

I always thinks that The Peak is not only a fine dining restaurant but the Finest dining resort at Bandung . I remember how the first time i came here . I was blown away , how awesome this place was . And those awe-struck hasn't changed even a lil bit .Est since 1999 on the highest hills at Girindah region , Bandung.

I will expose the late afternoon mood makers first before the place sightings .

Chicken Cordon Bleu

Strawberry Yoghurt & Banana Shake

Red Velvet

Chicken Cordon Bleu ( 60k ) was yummy . I am a fan of chicken meals . And this one was surely satisfied me . Deep fried chicken with mozzarella cheese and BBQ sauce under the chicken . Inside was filled by rich fillings , super tasty . Crisp , and the fillings melted perfectly in my mouth . Heaven on the earth . The best cordon bleu i ever had . Also the vegetables were perfectly cooked , sweet and tasty . And the potatoes were just right . Everything on the plate were just right . perfect

Some people getting sick with those red velvet , rainbow cakes furors . Yes i am sick of rainbow cakes . In fact i hate them . But not with red velvet . The Peak's red velvet was fantastic . The tasted was similiar with the one i had at Mad For Garlic . The cake was smooth and that white cream which is i believe it was yoghurt cream because tasted so , is delicious . My friend who's not into these red velvet and rainbow cakes trends also ordered a slice of it . And she said it was delicious . And it's cheap , seriously as long as i remember it was only 25k .

Strawberry Yoghurt and Banana shake seems not good friends . Felt a little bit nauseated . The yoghurt was fresh yoghurt and i love it , but my friends who tried it and they who used to ate yoghurt in a cup were kinda not enjoyed my yoghurt *sniff . Banana shake itself was a disappointment . I don't know but I certainly didn't like the shake.

back to business 

Located at a height of 1230 m above the sea level where you can see the greatness of nature . How beautiful and outstanding the panorama offered by The Peak . Gently blown by the cool breeze , relaxing atmosphere strengthened by the romantic nuance that made me even more saddened me due to the being single lol kidding .

The place itself was classic , huge , made up for 3 floors ( correct me if i was wrong ) dominated by wooden interior mostly dark brown i don't know the name of those kind of woods . Mahogany ? and again correct me if i was wrong . Almost every tables were covered with white table cloth and the napkins that made in such a way shaped like a ship made from origami .

The Peak connoisseurs provided a lot of wines selections 

.

The first i saw when i stepped my foot here . Flowers :)
