Three Buns Burger and Cocktails at Senopati Jakarta

Posted on November 30, 2016November 30, 2016 by yennymakanmulu

November 24th, 2016. This was my first time there. When everybody talked about this place, I wanted to go there too. But everybody said that it’s a really hot place if you went in the afternoon. If you went at night, it’s not good for your photos, right? So, I’ve never been there. Until now. Three Buns.

When I stepped inside, I didn’t feel any heat. I actually felt so comfortable with the place. It’s spacious. It’s like they turned a big garage into a hangout place. Such a creative place, with a semi mezzanine at the back of the place.

A lifestyle brand celebrated for continually creating innovative offerings and collaborations, Three Buns continues to set itself apart with the launch of the new 3 Bowls. For the first time ever, Three Buns – Potato Head Family’s gourmet take on the neighbourhood burger joint – adds rice bowls to the menu. Known as 3 Bowls at Three Buns, these new rice bowls are topped with succulent beef, chicken or pork, savoury sauces and other tasty ingredients, presenting a new take on the flavours that customers love and enjoy.

Ice Lychee Tea

Burning Man 95k

Stir-fried rice, 100g aged beef patty, gochujang sauce, scallions, ketchup, dashi mayo, smoked cheddar

It’s a rice bowl version of Burning Man burger. It’s not my favourite. Too sour for me. But the rice and the beef patty with the smoked cheddar had a powerful taste with perfect texture. For those who loves burning man burger version will definitely in love with this rice bowl.

Korean Clucker 80k

Steamed rice, fried chicken, kimchi, Korean BBQ sauce, fried shallots

I had to admit, the korean BBQ sauce was the winner here. Steamed rice mixed with fried chicken, was just like another ordinary rice bowl. But the sauce was dabomb. The fried chicken was tender and easy to eat. And I love the sunny side up egg. Fried shallots was fragrant and enhanced the flavour it the rice bowl. Recommended.

Bellyfull 90k

Steamed rice, den miso glazed belly pork, griddled daikon, cuciwis greens, baked egg, fried shallots

This is the time when they said, “and the Oscar goes to..” LOL. I love it!! The pork belly was tender and melt in your mouth. Perfect! So fragrant, I wanted to make it perfume *big grin* Generous fried shallots. Hahaha.. Dabest! Super recommended!

The Vanilla Guerilla 45k

Dark chocolate brioche bun, vanilla ice cream patty, with hot salted butterscotch sauce

LOVE! The brioche bun was fluffy and soft. The vanilla ice cream was delish. And hot salted butterscotch sauce was the one that make this dessert a perfect dessert. Definitely a keeper!

Thank you Three Buns for having a rice bowl dishes. I will be back!

SRSLY Coffee at Cipete Jakarta

Posted on November 29, 2016 by yennymakanmulu

November 20th, 2016. Before attending an event at Dharmawangsa area, we headed to this coffee shop at Cipete Raya. We talked about this coffee shop long before our date. It was quite far from our place. But, at the day, we thought, we should try the place. It’s not very far from our next venue. SRSLY Coffee.

If you wanna have a good time with good coffee and good ambiance, this is the place. They have separate area for smoking and non-smoking. We sat at smoking area. If I felt hot, I came inside and enjoyed the AC. LOL. I love the long table near the facade. It looks so intimate. I will sit there when I come to SRSLY Coffee.

Cappuccino 40k + Extra Shot 15k

Cappuccino 40k

Piccolo 34k

Ice Matcha Latte 40k

DABEST! At first, I was very skeptical. Served in a paper cup, it looked so simple. But after a sip, I thought, “Can I have free flow for this ice matcha latte?” Definitely a big NO. Hahahaha. But, it’s really good. I’ve never this happy to drink ice matcha latte. Most recommended!

Apple Pie 35k

I didn’t like apple pie. When Leo told me that this one was good, I gave it a try. But, still, me no likey. Maybe I should try their other food. Hope to be back soon, then.

So, I thought, let’s try it while it’s near my hotel. I walked in and a lady approached me, and she said something. I couldn’t hear her, so I replied her, “Upstair?” She shook her head. I acted dumbfounded. And she said with louder voice, “Open 11 am.” Dang! It’s 10:30am. LOL. So, when it’s 11:30am, I walked in proudly. Lady M®.

[SINGAPORE] Joe & Dough at Orchard Gateway Orchard Road Singapore

Posted on November 28, 2016December 20, 2016 by yennymakanmulu

November 11th, 2016. Finally, I arrived in Singapore. My last trip to Singapore was 2 years ago. OMG! That’s because I was too lazy to renew my passport hahaha. So, after checked-in at a hotel around Sommerset, I went to the nearest mall. I walked around and found this coffee shop. It looked comfortable with several seats. Joe & Dough.

Joe & Dough was founded in 2009 with the dream to deliver the best coffee and sandwich experience to many people. We don’t do a whole lot, but what we do, we do it right with a great deal of care, sincerity and pride. We turn the daily routine of coffee and sandwiches into a bespoke treat. From sourcing the best Arabica beans that we grind on demand to insisting on baking our own breads and choosing only the finest ingredients, we serve coffee and food that we are genuinely proud of.

Located at Orchard Gateway, Joe & Dough is really a nice place to morning persons like me. While other still closed, they opened in the morning with a friendly smile. So please enjoy my very very simple review.

We love food that is uncomplicated, great tasting and wholesome. We handcraft our sandwiches daily every step of the way – from baking our own artisan breads fresh out that very day to preparing the fillings by hand using quality ingredients. We thoughtfully pair the breads and ingredients, so you’ll always love eating our sandwiches. All our sandwiches have less than one-day shelf life so you can be sure to get fresh sandwiches every time!

CHA Coolers Shaken Tea

Island Mango $ 5.80

It’s so refreshing. Not too sweet. It’s an exotic adventure in your cup. Sweet and sour together, dancing in your mouth.

Breakfast Toast

Classic Croque Monsieur $ 6.90

Toasted Brioche, Ham, Cheddar Cheese, Bechamel Sauce

It looked so ordinary. I never thought it will be dabomb. The texture of the brioche was perfect. The ham and cheddar cheese mixed together deliciously delicate. The bechamel sauce glowing beautifully. I might be very hungry, but this one was very delicious, I only ate half of it, and saved the rest of it for my hubby. And when he ate that night, he couldn’t agree more. So delicious, he said. 🙂

Thanks Joe & Dough for being my saviour. My tummy was very happy that morning. Definitely will find you next time I go to Singapore again.

[BANDUNG] Buttercup Signature Boulangerie at Four Points Bandung

Posted on November 28, 2016November 29, 2016 by yennymakanmulu

October 15th, 2016. At the time, I stayed at Four Points Bandung and a friend of mine told me to stop by at the bakery near the hotel. I thought we have to go outside to find the bakery. Turned out, it was just in the same area with the hotel. Buttercup.

Spacious place with another level, but not full floor. It’s like a semi 2nd level. The place is very comfortable. As cozy as it looks. They also have private room for smoking-area. Separated by glass windows. It’s really comfy. Too bad, I went there after my brunch buffet. We were so full and wanted to go to bed right away.

Iced Cappuccino

Cheese cake 10k (per box 60k)

It’s delicious, of course. But the most eye-catching from this dish was the cow tray. LOL. It’s so cute!!! I wanna grab it and save the tray in my purse. Save it from other people to steal it. Hahaha. The cheese cake? It’s so tender and fluffy and delightful. So delicious, I was very happy when they sent a box to my room. You’re the best!!!

Buttercup Charcoal Sandwich 75k

Special Charcoal Baguette with beef patty, smoked chicken, vegetables & Buttercup’s special sauce.

It’s one of their signature dishes. The black colour of the baguette came from Japanese natural charcoal. Served with potato wedges on the side, I let my hubby finished it. And when he said it was good, I tried a bite and agreed with him. Well, I never liked potato wedges. The baguette? It’s a bit hard to chew for me. But I love the beef patty and smoked chicken. Recommended!

Creamy Brown Apple Soup 35k

Baked Red Apple herb with reduction brown stock topping with apple creamy.

Thanks Buttercup for the hospitality *yes, they’re very friendly* and those delicious food. Will be back there to eat your cheese cakes. Or.. can I order it online, and delivered to Jakarta? Pleasure will be mine!!

Avec Moi New Venue at Teluk Betung Menteng Jakarta

Posted on November 28, 2016November 29, 2016 by yennymakanmulu

November 19th, 2106. Attending an event without knowing the other invitees, somehow really confusing me. I didn’t really like to be in a crowd without my friends. So, when I got invitation to a soft opening party from a French restaurant, I asked if I could bring Gaby and Vrila. We were attending a foodtasting in the morning, and I wanted to bring them with me. And, they said yes. Cool. Let’s get the party started. Avec Moi.

Guys, it’s been so long since I came to Avec Moi. Well, I love eating there. But, with so much new places in town, I really have to catch up with others. Since I did blogging only for fun, I didn’t want it to make it burden. It’s not fun anymore when I have to try hard to make myself looks good. I just wanna have some fun. When I heard about Avec Moi’s new venue, I thought they will open a second branch. Turns out, it’s a relocating venue. It’s fine. It’s fine. It means they’re very serious with their “baby.” Oh yeah, by the way, Romano and Chenny are very nice. They remembered to invite me to join their happiness. *blushing* hahahhahaha

Located not so far from the first place, it’s a better one. Spacious room with comfortable ambiance. At the time we came, they make it like a hall for 300 guests. The wines and canapes were going around and around and around. Free flow. You can see me dancing all around the place with a glass of wine in one hand and a canape in the other. Hahahaha.. Annoying, right?

The event had a vibrant and exciting live music. Hope they will make it as a regular show. It was really nice to hear such a good songs while enjoying wine and canape.
