Interior : simple and a the space is a little bit small , ac

Wifi available with plucks

What I  have tried : quiche, chicken mushroom puff, salted egg croissant , colombia geisha coffee, london fog

The quiche was so soft it was almost melted in my mouth but some how i prefer the croissant and the puff was the best.

The croissant had a good texture which crunchy in the outside but the salted egg still soft in the inside. The salted egg was not too creamy but quite  firm
 .
 Instead of runny like others it gave you more real salted eeg sensation with a little taste of nutty

However the puff was the best for me.

The layer of the puff was amazing. It had enough layers on top and plenty of chicken and mushroom inside. The chicken and mushroom itself had the precise quantity of cream and not mushy. The mushroom and chicken real textures were there blended like heaven.

For the drinks , i must say that day was one of my most historical day in my life
.
After a very long break of coffee finally i was able to enjoyed almost half cup of it. The taste of colombia geisha was a quite sour and little bitter with not too strong aroma but still nice. The best part it didn't make my stomach upset in a blink.
Usually coffee makes my stomach in real upset condition right after tasting it.

But not this one. It was good 😀

Another recommended drink as they called it signature drink was london fog. They said it was a mixture of tea and vanilla .. the taste wasn't too strong because it used ice. I think the ice shrinked the tea and vanilla. Hopefully the hot one will be better.





Overall it was nice and I want to come back specially for the pastries. ( as I am not a coffee expert I would like to apologize that I cannot give you a lot of review about it :) )

Everyday from 8am to 7 pm (approx 6 pm for last order)

Dress Code : 
Casual 


Hello! 

This time is gonna be different a little bit
Well, yesterday (July 18, 2016) Me and 2 of my foodies friends visited a new coffee shop at alam sutera.
It was located at the back side of ex. rasane building near Flavour Bliss.
The building will be on your right side when you take a first turn on your left.

Park outside or inside the building, take the 1st left corner in front building to P3 to get to home brew coffee shop.
Yesterday was their soft opening day, so there was not so many people inside. Only relatives  and some foodies like us.

The owner was really nice, it was the same with his crew. they sell amazing drinks and foods.
Not only for the coffee, but the non coffee were great too.

I had the opportunity to try the mojito, cajun pasta and my favorite banana caramel bread with vanilla ice cream.
I must say all were good and even so yummy.
I can tell there is another place which also sell banana caramel bread but here they served it with ice cream. How can it not be my favorite even more! the bread itself was amazing plus ice cream it created a heaven for me!

and here is my real expression while trying the cake and pasta (thx u @stelmaris for the unforgettable video! XOXO)

WARNING : The video is a little bit ridiculous :p but its real



Thank you for reading and watching
Gonna make a complete review about home brew coffee shop soon!

I am happy while eating good food

Noodle King PIK

Actually I visited this place months ago (Feb to be exact) on the 1st day they open the store
but well due to some reasons I post this right now for you and hopefully still giving the helpful information 

Noodle King 


Location :

Jl. Marina Indah Raya, Pantai Indah Kapuk, Penjaringan, Jakarta Utara
021 29424861, 021 29424862

I went there on 21st February 2016 with some friends so I was able to try several menu such as jjangmyeon, jjampong, and japchae

1. Japchae


    too bad the japchae was not the best japchae that I've ever tasted 
    and the portion was way too small if I compared it to other restaurant
    the normal price is around 90+ let say 100k 
    hmm not the best offer to buy

2. Jjampong

    The jjampong was the very best among all 
     the taste was great  a little sour a little sweetness and quite spicy
     I could say that those seafood were fresh and not fishy at all 























 3. Jjangmyeon


    Yes hello it reminded me of the favorite food in K-Drama
    The noodle with black bean paste
    Sweet and savory that is all I can say to you
    But for sure, this one was quite nice to eat , did not make me feel want to puke like the other one         that I have tried before because it was too da*n sweet and too much of onions
*  Thumbs up














-The portion for their foods were not too big but using big plates-


Interior : 
modern casual 

Dress Code : 
casual
Service : 
Average, I think gonna takes a long time when full, it wasn't too fast even when a lot of seat were vacant

Price : 
approx. 100k + per person 

You don't need a silver fork to eat good food.

Great Taste at Coarse and Fine Coffee - Alam Sutera

Coarse and Fine Coffee


Type      : coffee shop

Address : 
Jl. Jalur Sutera Timur Blok B1 No. 15
Alam Sutera
Serpong, Tangerang
Banten- Indonesia

the shop house complex next to Sutera Renata, get a ticket from ticket machine and just go strait and you will find the coffee shop on your left

Closed every Monday

Exterior : 
 Black and white with modern window which can be open like a rolling door

Interior : 
Premium furniture in simple arrangement
chairs with cow leather and marble tables

Price : 
A little bit pricey
coffee start from 35k
non coffee start from 25k
tea start 40k by lewis and carol
for sandwiches / burger (I visited on pay as u like day and they didn't put the price in the menu)

Taste :
To be honest the coffee and soda drink were good.
I cannot drink too much coffee and don't understand much about it but at least I am able to differ good coffee and bad coffee without sugar (thx to my dad and my bro the coffee lovers)





The taste of the iced coffee was refreshing, the milk was not too much and I was able to tasted the coffee itself, not sour just how I like it.













The lemon bitter (I don't remember exactly the name, it was not in the menu at that time, they suggested it because I want some thing non coffee. So refreshing, not too sweet, not too sour, the soda was just right.




















The iced coffee, short machiato and lemon bitter



Short machiato, I can tell that the after taste of the coffee was good, it didn't make a weird sour taste in my mouth

chicken sandwich
hmm... The bagel was a little bit hard to chew and the crunchy chicken katsu didn't meet a good combination with the other element (hard meet hard urgh) The texture was not too good for a sandwich













Yaki Shabu Sandwich 
I prefer to call it yaki shabu burger, as you can see it is more like a burger right?
this one was so much better than the chicken sandwich, the beef was tender and tasteful. I can say the texture was a good match with the other element, not all were crunchy so tender met something more solid and that was nice. I can say I was quite in love with this.
hmm one thing that needs an improvement is the way they served the sliced tomato, I think it will be better to put it inside the burger so people with eat it together as a whole and not forgetting it.

Overall in love with the menu and the interior and the nice smiley people there.
The owner is still young but he knew how to treat the customers :)

Good luck for the new coffee shop.


Coffee is my favorite smell after flowers

My Favorite Breakfast in Japan

Hello hello hello..
I always start my story with hello so I kinda feel like interacting with you readers :) yes with a smile

First of all, FYI I went to Japan on Spring and the story is kinda late but I hope you still enjoy reading this.

So I went to Japan for 9 days from March 31 to April 09, 2016 so It was Spring season. That is why I could find flowers blossom here and there like everywhere! So lovely <3

 Unfortunately I discover that I am allergic to pollen, my eyes were swollen, and kinda having trouble with my respiratory system. At that time, I went to the nearest drug store and ask for allergic medication, however I did not want to let the allergy disturb my holiday. I took the medicine 2-3 times daily and always fell asleep in the train or in other places after, AHA! a good thing actually, it helped me to add sleeping time.

Okay, shortly I overcome my allergy and really enjoy my holiday in Japan.
Back to how I start my day every morning in Japan : " HAVING BREAKFAST!"

Lets say I had my favorite breakfast menu and it was totally different with my breakfast menu in daily life. Can you guess what it was?

Well it was not only one menu, but several! I ate like a bear preparing for hibernation.
FYI, It had been a healthy holiday cause I walked a lot like really far, my phone recorded about 19.000 to 26.000 + each day! In the other hands my daily walking goal only around 6.000 per day
can you imagine that?! I got a severe pain for my knees and I barely cannot walk so I used cab for several times :p for the last couple days

A lot of walking and that was kinda gave me an excuses to eat more and I didn't gain a single digit on my weight! ^ ^

1. CURRY















2. Pancake















3. Sausages and ham
4. Yoghurt
















5. Cereal, oatmeal and fresh milk














6. Bread

Those are my favorite breakfast menu.





Those food were special, I usually eat rice or vermicelli for my daily breakfast at home. I usually having stomachache if I eat those kind of food as my breakfast but when I go abroad I can accept almost everything and my stomach will cooperate very well. Everything good even after eating ramen and dairy products.
This kind of thing makes me confuse, is it the food quality in Indonesia that I need to question or what?!













My companion :

I am missing you my Japanese breakfast menu! T_T

" Say Good Morning to Your Body, EAT BREAKFAST!"


Thank you for reading

Kickass Coffee Works BSD

KickAss Coffee Works


Address : The Icon Business Park, Blok C No 1
Jl. BSD Raya Barat
BSD, Serpong, Tangerang
+6285694001397


Hello there !
It has been a quite long time since my last review about toast & dine.
But still, you can get more updated information on my instagram @caca_ietcha or through www.pergikuliner.com/caca_ietcha
In this review I will not show you complete picture about the ambiance tho but I will give you sneak peak about some good ice cream not just ordinary but something unique and special.




Kick Ass literally means kicking real ass and your can see it in their symbol
They serve coffee and ice cream when I went there but now expanding to chicken wings.
The ice cream itself was quite special because they have a lot of unique flavors. The ice cream makers is Hubble scoops. It served around 16 flavors, some are okay, some are weird and some are delicious.
So here they are.






I forget the actual name but remember the taste
It was kiwi with dragon fruit, coffee latte with oreo, butter pop corn, chocolate and lavender

Before making decision which ice cream you want, you can ask the barista to give you the samples. You can try all the flavor but I suggest not to, it will makes you more confused in making decision. 

I tried breakfast at tiffany's made of vanila and beef bacon ! yeah you can chew the bacon to while eating the ice cream :p the taste is sweet and unique but didn't match my taste. 
Kiwi with fruit dragon : this one is for you who prefer sorbet or fruity flavor. The flavor of both fruits, surprisingly dominant equally. Once it was so sour but taste the original taste of dragon fruit also still there. 
Butter popcorn : this is for you popcorn lovers. It gave me the feeling of watching movie in the theater. The burn taste of popcorn was very real!
Coffee -oreo : the taste of coffee was very dominant in sweet dark way
Lavender : the taste of lavender is strong, tasted like drinking lavender tea with milk and I love it, I can say this one is my favorite. I like flower and tea so It was a good combination :)
Chocolate : like the other chocolate :) match for people who love classic taste
The coffee was nice, you can control the sugar by yourself by adding sugar cane or brown sugar. But I like it dark without any sugar added. You can taste the real taste of the coffee

for the coffee I only try a sip from my friends; cup. The good thing, you can add the sugar cane or brown sugar by yourself. For me, I prefer not to add anything else in my coffee. I like it original and dark as it is. you can taste the coffee better. :)

definitely gonna come back again here to try the homemade chicken wings .. 

Ice cream is something I cannot refuse! - me-
