Warung Teko

Today I want to share with you all another nice restaurant at Jakarta, named Warung Teko.

Over there we tried Konro Bakar Saus Madu, Ayam Penyet and Iga Penyet.

Konro Bakar Saus Madu is a grilled beef ribs with Honey sauce. The taste is nice. This is their speciality dish. 

I believe you all know about ayam penyet. This ayam penyet is slightly different with the ayam penyet that you normally found in Singapore. They didn't use flour to fry the chicken.

Iga penyet is a smashed beef ribs. This iga penyet's cooking way is similar like ayam penyet. The taste is not bad and the beef is tender.

You will notice that they serve a lot portion of chili for ayam penyet and iga penyet. It's because Indonesian people will never say enough for chili.

If you visit Kelapa Gading Mall - Jakarta Utara, be sure to try those dishes at Warung Teko

Will I go there again? Absolutely Yes!!

Konro Bakar Saus Madu IDR60.000

Ayam Penyet IDR16.000

Iga Penyet IDR36.000

Spize

Good Day to you All!!!

Today, I will share with you one restaurant around Great World City, named Spize. I know this place from my cousin.

Although Great World City is far from MRT station, you can take free shuttle bus from Orchard or City Hall area.

Over there, we ordered Prata Bomb with Cheese, Penang Char Kway Teow, Pineapple Rice and Tom Yam Seafood.

All of the dishes that we ordered were based on my cousin recommendation.

I felt that Prata Bomb with Cheese, Penang Char Kway Teow and Pineapple Rice are not bad.

If you order Prata Bomb with Cheese, remember to ask the waiter for the condensed milk. You may want to dip the prata with the condensed milk. It's very nice.

Penang Char Kway Teow is very nice, but it's quite spicy. So if you cannot eat spicy food, better think twice before try it.

My cousin likes their Tom Yam Seafood, but I’m not. Although the seafood portion were generously given, I feel that their soup is not enough tasty.


Each dish is suitable for 2-3 people. With a decent price, Spize restaurant is a not bad option for dinner or supper.

Will I go there again?
Yes, if I am around Great World City


Prata Bomb with Cheese S$4.00

Penang Char Kway Teow S$6.00

Pineapple Rice S$12.90

Tom Yam Seafood S$13.90

Cafe Oh La La

During my last holiday in Jakarta, I met some of my close friends and had a small gathering. Since one of them like chocolate and cake, we decided to try cakes at Café Oh La La.

We ordered Pannacotta Cream Cheese with Fruit and Ice Cream, Grilled Cheese and Banana with Cheese and Milk, Chocolate Fondre Melt Cake with Ice Cream and Berries Coulis and Hawaiian Fried Pineapple with Mixed Fruits and Ice Cream.

I chose Grilled Cheese and Banana with Cheese and Milk as I like banana so much. This dish even though not that bad but, it’s too sweet for me. Maybe it’s because they put too much condensed milk.

I like Chocolate Fondre Melt Cake with Ice Cream and Berries Coulis the most.


Pannacotta Cream Cheese with Fruit and Ice Cream is nice but a bit sour.

Hawaiian Fried Pineapple with Mixed Fruits and Ice Cream is also not bad. For pineapple lovers, you should try this dish.

Will I go there again? Maybe yes.


Pannacotta Cream Cheese with Fruit and Ice Cream IDR40.000

Grilled Cheese and Banana with Cheese and Milk IDR32.000

Chocolate Fondre Melt Cake with Ice Cream and Berries Coulis IDR40.000

Golden Pillow 933

Today I want to share with you one restaurant called Golden Pillow 933.

Last month, we ordered-for-delivery their specialty dish called Golden Pillow Curry Chicken Bun and fried chicken wing.

What so special about this Golden Pillow Curry Chicken Bun? It’s special because they put the curry chicken inside the big bun. I never see this kind of style before.

Actually, there is no special method to put the curry chicken inside the big bum.

They just put the curry chicken into a big plastic and tight it. After that they covered it with the bun.

The taste is not bad. The bread is big, the chicken is generously given, and the curry is (duh, of course) tasty. The portion is more than enough for 2-3person.

The fried chicken wing not bad either. Although it’s not that crispy, it’s still acceptable for me.

Remember to use their chili sauce. It’s not so spicy but nice.

Will we order again? Maybe, once in a while.


Golden Pillow Curry Chicken Bun S$14.80
 
 
 
 
Fried Chicken Wing S$8.00

Sun Ray Cafe

Good Day to All!!!

How’s your last weekend? My last weekend was so damn fantastic!! Thanks to Dave from Sun Ray café for the food tasting invitation. I and my sister were enjoyed our brunch soooo much. The food, dessert and beverage were superb!

PS: Not only for the food testing, I also BIG thanks Dave for his most professional assistance in some important stuffs about coffee. For me who originally know nut about coffee, I learned a bit more after met him.

A short description about Sun Ray café:


Located within Serangoon Gardens, Sun Ray café not only provide great foods for human being it’s also serve furry animal (such as dog).  But please bear in mind that their main customer still human who like to eat great food like us =P

This café is currently revamping their menu and renovating the interior, to deliver a more focused coffee drinking experience for its patrons. Even though their more focused on coffee, they still provide classic comfort and nice foods.



Their trained baristas are SCAE certified (Specialty Coffee Association of Europe).

At Sun Ray Café, you may experience coffee brewed using different techniques such as syphon, cold brew and French press and also the specialty drip coffee brew sing their own custom-roasted blend called Brighton blend.
 
 

Okay, without further due, let me share with you my great experience @ Sun Ray café.
As a starter, Dave served their brewed beverage.

Single Origin with Siphon Coffee

Just need one sip of it to feel the lightness and how elegant the taste of this coffee. It got a lovely fragrant for even I (not a coffee lover) can easily enjoy the taste of it.

They used Yirgacheffe coffee (from Ethiopia) and brewed it with Siphon to keep the freshness.

FYI, they encourage their customer to never add any sugar to maintain the original taste of the beans.

Cappuccino

It contains 1/3 Coffee, 1/3 Milk and 1/3 Foam.

Tell you a secret (since you are my lovely reader, duh!), Dave told me that they use Meiji milk as the ingredient.

Latte

How to know whether the Latte is good or not? When you can see a while line in between means it brewed successfully.  Their latte art is quite impressive.

Just after the “hot coffee”, they served us with their brunch meal.

American Breakfast


I love American breakfast the most. It’s really a worth dish to try. With a decent price, they served it in a super generous portion. American breakfast consists of scrambled egg or sunny side up, Italian sausages, croquette, bacon, homemade bread and salad. They make all the food by themselves.

The homemade bread is very nice (my sister love it). I love the Italian sausage more, it’s very thick, springy and a bit spicy. I believed you will like this set very much.

Egg benedict


The Egg benedict is not a bad option either. It consists of 2 poached eggs on homemade bread, smoked salmon and orange hollandaise sauce.


Not only “hot coffee” they also served the “cold coffee”
Iced Mocha


It is one of the most popular beverages over there. The combination between latte and chocolate powder blended so perfectly. This beverage is Rock!!

Cold Brew


Cold brewed coffee naturally seems sweeter due to its lower acidity. For this coffee, they’ll need to brew it at least 12 hours to get the awesome taste.

There is one special thing about this coffee, they add whisky rock inside. It will help to keep your coffee coldness without watering it down. It does not contain any alcohol but I don’t know why it gives me slightly whisky aroma.

Finally, they served their glorious DESSERT!!

Homemade Lava Cake and Homemade Tiramisu
Homemade Lava Cake

Homemade Tiramisu


From the name it’s already tell you that both desserts are homemade. Everything homemade is original and special. Love love love the Lave cake. It is warm and had both a good taste and a good texture. And their layered dessert, Tiramisu is delightful.
