Portico

yes im back after a lot of trips with boyfie and i have lot photos to write here *thankyou cinto* :p

this post is about Portico, a restaurant at Senayan City.
I've visited this place for several times and the last time when i went to Portico, we're gonna meet our old friend from Balikpapan, Ms. Nismah (not-the-real-name).

Portico has a gorgeous atmosphere, mereka menggunakan ruangan bersekat kaca, lemari kaca dengan ratusan bahkan ribuan botol wine,bar nya juga terbuat dari meja kaca.
Portico was divided into three rooms, named the Main Dining (non-smoking area), Glass Terrace, and the Green Area to see the streets around Senayan because it place in the terrace, as well as places that allow visitors to smoke.

and here are the fffooodddss! 



Spaghetti Meatballs. There's absolutely a giant meatball there and covered with cheese and it's so yummy!

Half Spring Chicken it costs IDR 85K, consists of pieces of chicken, fries, and salad. The chicken was soft, tender and juicy. it's so delicious nomnomnom. and  the french fries are also tasty, crunchy. idk hows the salad since im not a saladlover :p



i'll post my holiday trip to Bandung, Lampung and Bali SOON! :)

homemade

hello! It's been a long time since my last post, sorry for the hiatus.
Why i don't blogging for a long time that's because i restart my tab and yeah.. i lost so many photos to be blogged :(

But that's okay.. Let's start again and find more foods to my tummy B)
And now, i'm gonna share some recipes which i found in internet to all of you. I made them by myself & of course my dearest boyfie help me too *he speciality to grind all of the ingredients :p*

1st, i made Balinesse Chicken or we usually called it Ayam Bumbu Bali. 
It tastes so spicy and use lots of traditional herbs such as kunyit, kemiri, daun salam, daun jeruk, lengkuas/laos and jahe.
*let's continue this post with Indonesian :p*


Bahan-bahan yang perlu disiapkan antara lain,
1 ekor ayam kampung/ras (bisa di ganti dengan bagian dada atau paha saja), bersihkan, kemudian di goreng sebentar
7 siung bawang putih
6 siung bawang merah
1 atau 2 ruas kunyit (disesuaikan dengan kadar kuning yg diinginkan)
1 ruas jahe, kupas
2 cm lengkuas, kupas, di geprek
Cabe merah sesuai selera (aku pakai 5)
Cabe rawit sesuai selera (aku pakai 10)
1 sdt kaldu bubuk
2 sdt gula pasir
2 batang serei, di geprek
Garam sesuai selwra
5 lembar daun jeruk purut buang tulang daunnya
Air mendidih secukupnya
Sedikit minyak untuk menumis


Cara membuat :
· Haluskan semua bumbu kecuali lengkuas, serei, cabe rawit dan daun jeruk purut *untuk yang doyan pedes boleh halusin beberapa cabe rawit juga*
· Tumis bumbu halus dan lengkuas, serei dandaun jeruk purut sampai wangi
· Masukkan ayam, tumis sebentar
· Tambahkan air mendidih, kaldu bubuk, garam dan gula, tambahi kalau kurang
· Masak dengan api kecil sambil diaduk aduk sampai ayam empuk, bumbu meresap dan air tinggal sedikit, masukkan cabe rawit sesaat sebelum diangkat dari api

» untuk memodif menu ini, bisa di tambahkan telur rebus yang sudah digoreng dan tempe yang sudah di goreng sebentar
» bagi yang suka makanan sedikit berkuah, airnya bisa disisakan lebih banyak dan pastikan rasanya tetap enak ;)


Ayam Bumbu Bali + telor & tempe

Menu ke2, Brokoli & Wortel tumis. Menu simpel dan cepat untuk dimasak kalo orang rumah kelaperan.
Bahannya:
2 brokoli

Garam, gula, penyedap rasa dan
1 sdm saos tiram

Opus Cafe

cc : OpenRice.com
inside the cafe. taken & edited by me


Final exam has done! WOOOO!
dan akhirnya gue sempet buat posting semua korban ke-khilaf-an gue weekend kemaren.
It is Opus Cafe at Plaza Indonesia, level 1. Tempatnya baru pertama kali ini gue temuin karena rada pelosok dan deket sama Sushi Tei.
Cafe yang cukup unik menurut gue, karena ini cafe terletak dalam mall, tapi.. Full Smoking Area! Sebagian besar smoking area dan actually i dont know where the nonsmoking area. :p
Tampilan cafe ini oke, design elegan dengan nuansa dark dan cokelat untuk interiornya. Pelayanan dari waiter dan waitressnya juga ramah, baik, cepet dan murah senyum.
Overall it has a stylish-cozy ambiance and great service! 

The Menu.
Opus Cafe menawarkan berbagai macam makanan Italia (pasta, pizza) yang dipadukan dengan citarasa Asia. Selain itu, tersedia pula berbagai jenis steak dengan tingkat kematangan sesuai dengan yang diinginkan.
Me & him ordered, Chicken stroganoff pasta (65k), and Grilled atlantic salmon fillet (110k) for our main course. And  Lychee fever (40k) for the beverages.
 Chicken stroganoff pasta, Mr.B order pastanya yang penne dan menurut kita tingkat kematangan penne-nya oke, jadi ga terlalu keras atau terlalu lembek ketika dimakan, cream dan herb dalam sausnya juga pas, tapi bagi gue makhluk yang sedikit anti dengan makanan ber-cream ga bisa makan pasta ini kebanyakan karena bakal berasa eneg.. Tapi secara keseluruhan i like this pasta :)
Untuk salmonnya, gue pesen tingkat kematangan yang done, tapi akhirnya gue nyesel karena menurut gue salmonnya ini di grill  kelamaan. Sampe berasa salmonnya uda sedikit gosong (terasa sedikit rasa pahit) dan dagingnya uda rada kering :(. It served with mashed potatoes and mushrooms sauce. Opus Cafe has the best mashed potatoes i ever had! dan sebelumnya gue ga perna suka makan mashed potatoes, tapi kali ini mashed potatoesnya bikin nagih! Asli enak & lembut banget!
Dan kita order Lychee fever buat beverage-nya. ga nyesel milih ini karena seger banget! Ga terlalu manis, sedikit rasa asam dan berasa seger karena dalam minumannya kecampur daun mint. Warna minumannya juga cantik karena pink muda gitu.

Chicken Stroganoff Pasta
Grilled atlantic salmon fillet
Lychee Fever
RAINBOW VELVET!

Dan dessertnya, gue mencari cake in a jar, tapi ga ada yang menarik, so gue ngintip ke display cake di dekat pintu masuknya dan nampaklah kue ini. RAINBOW VELVET. atas saran dari pelayan yang super baik & ramah, akhirnya gue memesan kue ini. 
first impression pas ngeliat kue ini, terlalu cute untuk dimakan! dan harus ekstra usaha buat mendirikan cake ini untuk difoto karna pas disajikan kue ini tertidur dengan imutnya. -___-
tekstur cakenya lembut, cream cheese nya berasa, dan secara keseluruhan cake ini layak untuk dimakan :D


Opus Cafe buka pada jam operasional normal mall, setiap hari dari pukul 08.00 - 22.00
dan bagi pecinta western food atau mencari suasana beda, jangan ragu buat dateng ke cafe ini, entah buat makan kenyang atau hanya sekedar nongkrong doang :)

Date Night

Yes this about last weekend i had with Mr.B, and we went to The Baked Goods.
One of my friend visited there and shared the cakes photo and i really wanna try em all :p

The Baked Goods located at Jl. H. Agus Salim no. 16 Sabang, Menteng. Jakarta Pusat 10340.
It has a lovely decoration and i love the ambiance in the cafe.
The cafe separated in 2 part, outside&inside. The outside area for smoking area and no smoking inside.
although the place is not too big, but it still feels comfort.

They served cakes, cookies, cupcakes, quiches, hampers, packaging cakes/cookies, diabetic products (finally our parents/grandparents can eat cakes freely!) and many more.
I love The Baked Goods because at the website we can download the menus for free and it helps a lot! Thankyou! 

and here the recap photos taken by me. enjoy!

when i became a monster :p


too many cakes and i want em all so badly!

Carrot Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting. This cake taste like a blend of carrots, raisins and a variety of distinctive spices that give a unique flavor to cake.

Bublanina. A universal Czech specialty cake with such a unique flavor. combination between fresh strawberries and sprinkles crumble on the top of this cake. deliciously served hot or cold and i enjoyed this cake when it's hot. so in my opinion, i LOVE this cake, it's lil bit dry and crisp on the top, sweet yet sour at the same time because of the strawberries inside the cake. You have to try this cake when you visit The Baked Goods


Hot Cokolada (Hot Chocolate). A hot thick chocolate. Maybe I could enjoy the chocolate if only i didn't order like crazy. :p. this chocolate is not too sweet, i love the bitter flavor.

Yeah, it's another Lava Cake. This cake is sooo mini! yes,it's so small, i wish for a bigger one, but it's okay. topped with a few vanilla ice cream and of course served hot/warm. This cake is too sweet for me. But the flavor is almost the same with others lava cake.

the table is too small for a cakemonster like me :p, normal people wouldn't order this much.. this pancake to you guys!

and this is Fruit & Yogurt Pancake. absolutely delicious, yummy, sweet&sour, nomnomnom! the thickness of the pancake is fitted, i love the fresh berries&orange, and such a healthy combination with yogurt :). totally recommended this pancake to you guys


So, overall i like this cafe. everything was good, the ambiance, service and price is good :)
i'm gonna try their cookies (LOTS OF COOKIES JAR THERE! AND I REALLY BRING EM HOME :))
