March 18th, 2017. I saw about it on friends’ Instagram accounts a couple days ago. So when Hans called me and asked me to come to the place with him on last Saturday, I told my hubby to join us. So, after a cake tasting in Plaza Indonesia, we headed to Neo Soho Mall. Common Grounds.
Coffee continues to amaze us. From its journey from plant to portafilter we are obsessed about how good coffee is crafted. Whether brewed meticulously over filters, or carefully prepared as an espresso, our goal is to show you coffee’s delicious possibilities.
In Jakarta, Common Grounds had 2 outlets. First at Citywalk, then Pondok Indah Mall. Now they open their 3rd outlet at Neo Soho Mall. Other than those 3, they have other outlets in Bandung and Surabaya. So, let’s go to Neo Soho Mall. I love this outlet more than the previous ones. It’s more spacious with more comfortable ambiance and more contemporary atmosphere. So yeah, it’s better than the others. They have outdoor area and it’s very cozy. Also, you can find La Maison there. Perfect, right?
SMOOTHIES
Mango Colada 55k
mango, pineapple & peach passion fruit yoghurt
Such a thirst-quenching. Not too sweet, so it’s really good.
JUICES
Washington Apple 45k
MAINS
Chicken Katsu Burger 70k
ginger and soy marinated panko crumb fried chicken, house slaw, toasted nori, wasabi mayonnaise on milk bun with a side of French fries
I didn’t try this one because I ordered a rice bowl. I was afraid I will get too full.
Katsudon Bowl 70k
house chicken katsu, steamed rice, egg and spring onion soy sauce
I love the chicken katsu, but too bad, I didn’t really like the spring onion soy sauce. It’s only salty flavour, I guess. I prefer more flavours. Hmm.. maybe a sweet one. Well, different palate, I think. But if you’re very very hungry, you’ll be happy when you order this one. For 70k it’s a really big portion! Wow. I couldn’t finish it. *sobbing* So just go to Common Grounds near your place, and order this one. Hahaha..
Congratulations Common Grounds on the opening of your new outlet. Keep it coming!
