May 8th, 2017. I was in the middle of my own dilemma. Staying at home or going out. Then my brother said that he wanted to go to Gandaria City for lunch, alone. I remembered that last time I promised to have lunch with him. So, that morning, when I had nothing to attend, finally I had lunch with him at Douwe Egberts Coffee in Gandaria City. Hooraaaay.
Douwe Egberts is an international coffee tradition celebrating 250 years of excellent taste. Born in the Netherlands in 1753, Douwe Egberts now can be found in many countries around the world. The brand continues to be recognized for it’s wide range of coffees in retail markets, but also in offices, fine hotels, restaurants and cafés.
I heard about DE from Cindy. She asked me to go there last month, I guess. But we still no chance to visit the place. Then, I said to Cindy that I wanna try DE with my brother, and she said, “Go ahead. Tell me all about it later.” Yaaaaay. Well, let me show you around. DE Coffee divided into 2 areas. Smoking and Non smoking. Of course I chose the non smoking area. It’s very comfortable with high ceiling and cozy ambiance. While waited for my brother, I took photos first. And now, please enjoy my simple review about DE Coffee.
Stroopwafel Caramel Latte 51k
Signature latte with caramel flavour and Dutch stroopwafel topping
Love the stroopwafel caramel latte. As usual, I asked the barista to make it less coffee. It’s fresh, sweet and delicious. Oh, and it’s beautiful in presentation. Easy to be captured. Very lovely.
Lazy Noon 49k
Espresso mix with chocolate milk topped with hershey’s syrup and choco powder
What a catchy name. Drink Lazy Noon on a lazy noon hahaha. My brother loved it. When he got home, he told me that he’s already craving this delicious drink. Well, next time bro, we’ll visit it again. Soon ya.
Tuna Sandwich 53.6k
Baguette Bread with tuna chunk mixed paprika & topped with cheddar cheese
Tried the tuna chunk, but it’s not really my taste bud. So I let my brother finished it.
Special Fried Rice 53.6k
Dutch favorite javanese fried rice with chicken satay
I LOVE IT! The fried rice was very delicious. The chicken satay was tender with a sweet peanut sauce. Pssst, don’t forget to tell the server about the egg. Sunny side up. Half-cooked. Hmmm.. drooling. And now, I’m craving this fried rice while writing about it. Btw, they said the oxtail fried rice is also good. Hmm.. I wonder.. Ok, next time I will try their oxtail fried rice. 🙂
It’s been fun. Delicious drinks, delicious food, with a great company. Will definitely be back again when I visit Gandaria City. See you soon Douwe Egberts Coffee.
