Review: Ice Coffee Milk at Aiola Eatery


After eating at Mie Abang Adek, my sissy complained about the over spicy taste and she's told me to I bought sweet foods at Aiola Eatery. I said yes because my generosity is also again curious about taste of milk coffee there.

In the last few weeks, milk coffee becoming such a hits, since there is a small milk coffee shop in Jakarta which suddenly booming and queue to buy that ice coffee milk already so long just like train tickets for mudik Idul Fitri.

I am a dairy coffee enthusiast already so long, since elementery school. It's because one day I got a fresh milk from a dairy farm and I can not drink it because it smells bad and I can't even handle it. So my grannie took a glass from me and boiled it again with added some spoon of coffee powder. Every go to the coffee shop, or drinking coffee wherever I am, I ordered coffee milk. I like my coffee being creamy even though I do not like sweet coffee.

Review: Bernardi Japanese Cheesecake



A few months or less a year later japanese food adorns many timelines. Previous greentea that became a hits, now the all-cheese food that became a prima donna. Cheese-themed food is cheese tart and Japanese cheese tart. Two of these foods in an instant become excellent. Different from the country of origin, both famous brands have not had branches in Indonesia widely. For me as a citizen of Malang city I can only bite my fingers when many vendors that resemble those two big vendors in creating two such contemporary products. As a cheese lover I am not strong also tempted to enjoy one of them.

When I'm going to a friend's house, I pass the usual way but there are unusual from the way I used to. A blink of an eye I see there is a new store and if I do not wrong that is Bernardi Family Outlet. But because the road is a one-way traffic so I ignore the place first, the original even want to stop by.

Apa sih impian terbesarmu?

Dulu ketika saya masih di usia super labil memakai seragam putih abu ketika ditanya impian saya apa maka saya akan menjawab impian saya adalah menjadi dokter untuk ibu saya. Bahkan tas masa orientasi siswa saya menjadi kenangan bahwa saya pernah menuliskan profesi dokter disana. Tas yang tanpa bantuan ibu yang menahan kantuk untuk menemani saya sepanjang malam dan air hangat yang ibu siapkan di pagi buta untuk saya agar tidak kedinginan karena kurang tidur maka saya tidak akan bisa menggoreskan kata “dokter” disana bahkan menjadikannya pengganti tas punggung saya.

Ya….

Itu dulu saat saya masih memiliki ambisi cukup besar untuk menjadi dokter dan membuat ibu bahagia dan bangga disurga karena saya menjadi dokter seperti keinginan beliau. Seandainya dulu orang tua saya memiliki tabungan pendidikan untuk mempersiapkan saya menjadi seorang dokter mungkin akan berbeda ceritanya.

Culinary Review: Kotakuhikari, Halal Homemade Sushi

Halooo!
Anyone likes sushi?

I do loveee sushi, even I can't say that I'm the addicted one. For sushi that is not full cooked I like it too, but I'm kind of picky when it comes to raw sushis.

I used to like to came to the same most famous sushi restaurant every time I have an appointment eating sushi together with my friends, which I always getting many story for listeninda after that. Until I known that restaurant have no halal certified, I stopped eating in that sushi restaurant. It was hard indeed... so I started looking for a halal certified sushi restaurant. But it was not really met my expectation and it turn out that I don't really like it. The sushis going messy when bitten. It feels like I just eating plain rice with raw fish. Ewww.

Culinary Review: Enjoying All You Can Eat Dimsum in Bamboo Dimsum Kelapa Gading

I am one of the many fans of dimsum, especially the stew dimsum. Dimsum is a food made from vegetables, shrimp, chicken and other meat that are given flour and spices then covered with dumpling batter in slices then cooked by steaming or fried.

But eating dimsum even the delicious one could make us thinking about the prices :p. One serving dimsum usually consists of 3 to 4 pieces only, and the restaurant prices for one serving of dimsum is about 17.000 rupiah or up. If you found 1 serving of dimsum which price is about 12,000 to 15,000 rupiah, it's reconsider very cheap.

If dimsum was one of your favorite menu just like I am, it will be not enough if you just eat one or two servings only because it's tiny-tiny so it's just like we eating regular snack :D When I eating dimsum with my friends, we usualy bought at least 6-7 servings of dimsum.

Bamboo Dimsum
I got an info from my friends for dimsum fans who want to eat dimsum as much as they one without too much cost on Bamboo Dimsum. So this concept of this dimsum place was all you can eat. It is not far from my office in North Jakarta. Yes it turns out that although there are several branches nearby but not the same from one to another. Bamboo Dimsum there is a price per serving such as restaurant dimsum generally but there is also a special branch that serve for all you can eat dimsum.

Bulletin board that relieves all dimsum fans :))

Culinary Review: Eating Seafood at Muara Karang

Hallo foodies!

Have you heard about Muara Karang?

I live in Jakarta at about two or three years, but I never heard Muara Karang before or I just heard coversation like "Muara Angke near the office building". I only hear not come to that place until my friend invite me to join the lunch at Muara Karang. I am a seafood lover and in my home town I can eat seafood until I feel full but in Jakarta seafood too expensive although eating alone. So I join my friend to lunch together. She said, wear casual mode and don't forget to bring toilet sanitizer cause its not a hangout in the mall.

We go to the Muara Karang by taxi from sunter with the condition I'm very hungry. Its very wasting time when we must find another road cause the road we always through is under construction. Im hungry too much...

Taxi stop in the gate of fish market and I don't know its cause taxi not allowed or the driver did not want to entry the gate. Its normal cause the area is prone to flooding. When we walk to the restaurant we past the flood area. There is a line of restaurant and we decide to choose the best one.

Culinary Review: Delicious Local Burger Joint, The Famous 'Blenger Burger'



For the first time I know about Blenger Burger is in the TV culinary program that report by Mr. Bondan and its very long time ago until I'm drooling with the Mr. Bondan review. I think its happend when I'm in senior high school.



Several months from that day in Malang there are the kind of Burger like Burger Buto and Klenger Burger. I'm very curious, but I still want to eat Blenger Burger that only has stores in Jakarta. When I am moving to Jakarta, I forgot Blenger Burger until several months ago Gojek officially launched their new menu Go Food and Blenger Burger become one of the best seller menu. In fact, the nearest store is still far away from home, but not more than 25 km so Go Food can provide me this best seller menu. So I decide to buy Blenger Burger as soon as possible.

Recipe: How to Make A Meat Siomay


It’s a rainy season and it will be easy to hungry. Need snacking more, but in this rainy season no one selling food around my house or maybe if my lucky day there is a seller around my house... I/m too lazy too move. Hehe

I wanna snacking with small size, delicious, and at least no need worried with the calory of the food but easy to make it. Hmm, I think siomay is the best choice but first I must check my refrigerator to make sure that I have enough ingredients to make siomay. And its surprisingly, that all the ingredients are available in my storage. So let's cook!

Ingredients:
Dumpling skin
Meat
Pepper
Salt
Sugar ½ teaspoon
Garlic
Onion
Carrot
Flour
Tapioca flour
Green onion (optional)
Water

How to make:
Minced meat and mixed with water, salt, and pepper
Mashed it with the food processor
Minced the carrot or maybe rasps it
Crush garlic and onion. Make sure that the amount of garlic is more than an onion. For comparison it up to you cause I haven’t the exact size.
Mixed the meat with tapioca, a tablespoon of flour, green onion, sugar, and crushed garlic and onion
Mixed it well and add water until the dough have a better texture
For carrot it’s an optional. You can make it for topping also mixed it. For me, I like to mixed it, but in other hand my husband dislike its
Make the dough like a ball
Take a dumpling skin, then put the dough into the dumpling skin
Steamed it at about 30 minutes
Siomay already serves with peanut or chilli sauce
FYI, you can make friend siomay too its up to you, but for healthy reason I choose steamed siomay. You can serve siomay with soup broth for the side dish. Its simple but delicious

Do you like siomay too?
