Its my first time to Sushi Hiro despite hearing a lot of people saying that their sushies are one of the best in town. But as you know that I'm actually not a big fan of sushi, I never really came to a Sushi Restaurant unless there's a specific reason like gathering, birthday, invitation or others :) Nevertheless, after trying the new menus here a few weeks ago, I have to admit that (no cliche) it was one of The Best Experience! Have to tell you though that the restaurant at PIK is quite cramped and packed during peak dining hour. Without further a due, let's have a look at the new menus!
Percaya gak kalo gw bilang ini trip ke luar negeri sekeluarga complete (mom, dad, sister and brother) setelah belasan tahun lamanya. Yang terakhir kali gw inget kayanya ke Thailand pas gw masih SD apa SMP, itu entah brp belas tahun yg lalu deh (mungkin sebagian kalian pembaca belom lahir, maklum udah tuwir, hehehehe). Plan buat jalan sekeluarga udah lama tuh dibicarakan, soalnya my mom had planned to have her leg surgery tp tertunda2 sampai akhirnya bulan September 2017 dia operasi kaki juga.
I believe some of you noticed that I just came back from Japan on 15 December 2017 and right away the day after (16 December 2017) I visited Teras Dharmawangsa at South Jakarta, exactly at Dharmawangsa Square. Just for your information, Teras Dharmawangsa is part of Plataran Dining Group, one of total four restaurants in Jakarta. And its actually their most affordable restaurant amongst the four. When I say affordable, it literally means cheap in a very good way like you can have tons of Indonesian, Chinese and Thai dishes for less than 50K. That's way cheaper than the other 3 restaurants, although you can't really compare apple to apple between the affordable one with the expensive ones. Having said that, I still fell in love with the ambience inside the restaurant. I really felt the old Betawi & Chinese vibe from all those decorations and furnitures. Also, they are occupying 3 floors with a private lift inside the restaurant. So, let's check them out!
As far as I notice/remember, this is the 3rd outlet of Lewis & Carroll in Jakarta. They recently opened their new outlet at Senayan City Lower Groud near the KOI fish pond (outdoor). For those who have never been to Lewis & Carroll, they are actually a tea house with tons of exotic tea collections from all over the world. We apparently have been visiting all of their outlets from the first one at South Jakarta (I think its the most beautiful one in terms of the ambience), and the second one at Central Deparment Store Grand Indonesia. By far they are consistent with their food, tea and interior concept. However, each outlet has its own unique concept: 1st outlet with their complete tea collections and tea utilites, 2nd outlet with their Flower Market theme, and the 3rd outlet with their new Dessert Bar. Haven't checked with the rests of the 2 outlets (about the new desserts), but I'm pretty sure that you can try their 'one of a kind desserts' here!
Untuk pertama kalinya kita bermain di wilayah CBD Bintaro, Tangerang. Sebuah kota yang bisa dibilang cukup modern dan tertata rapih. Waktu pertama kali keluar tol menuju Bintaro, kita cukup terkejut dengan perkembangan kota nya. Karena sepanjang jalan sangat bersih, rapih dan cukup rindang. Kebetulan kita sedang menuju Cozyfield, sebuah cafe yang cozy (sesuai namanya) oleh group Gramedia. Yup, Cozyfield ini ada di lantai dasar gedung Gramedia Bintaro guys! Selain suasanya yang nyaman banget, interior nya yang minimalist bikin makin betah berlama2 di sini. Kalau kalian ke sini, bisa juga sekalian jalan2 ke gedung Gramedia nya (3 lantai) buat lihat2 barang2 dan accessories lainnya.
Guys masih inget kan 3 bulan lalu kita sempat kasih lihat preview menu terbaru A&W Restaurant Indonesia dengan tema Chicken Tender dan Dessert mangga nya. Postingan blog kita itu bahkan masih masuk postingan populer hingga saat ini loh, bisa dilihat di sebelah kanan Blog kita di 'Latest Popular Review'. Nah kali ini, tepatnya 25 November 2017, A&W Indonesia kembali memperkenalkan menu terbaru mereka, namanya All Day Breakfast Waffles dimana menu waffle ini disajikan sepanjang hari guys! Woohoo ALL DAY, meskipun tema nya breakfast ya.
Been eyeing for Plataran Menteng for quite a while since their early opening and finally got the chance to visit and try some of their food. To be frankly speaking, their restaurant (interior) is unbelivably captivating, its the history that makes it one of a kind.
Altitude Grill at The Plaza is finally reopening its door after a major renovation or probably rebranding? We've come here once for a nice lunch and this time we came here for dinner on their 1st day opening (19 November 2017). Very excited because not only its a highly praised Steak House, but its also located strategically at the 46th floor of The Plaza Building with a beautiful Bundaran HI view. The interior looks very expensive (well yeah there's a price to pay for a beautiful restaurant). But its not just about the beautiful appearance, but its also about the amazing steaks led by their executive chef Gary Eng. I'm so excited to share our dining experience here.
Gak pernah kebayang sebuah destinasi wisata yang mungkin hanya dalam mimpi akhirnya bisa kesampaian. Sebagai couple yang suka dengan alam terutama laut, Pulo Cinta ini sudah menjadi impian kita semenjak lama. Apalagi beberapa saat yang lalu sempat diramaikan oleh banyak

Last September, we visited SANTAN COOLINAIR food festival in The Space Senayan City from 29 September to 1 October 2017. The first ever event by Airasia in collaboration with Doku App bringing traditional cuisines from all over South East Asia to one place. if you are unfamiliar with SANTAN, it is actually the brand for the inflight food of Airasia flight. So, whenever you are having your food inside the Airasia plane, that's Santan! And apparently we are a big fan of their food, no cliche because we almost always pre-purchased the food via online or sometimes we bought it in the plane. But not just that, this event also brought local favorite foods from nasi padang, sate padang, bebek goreng, to es kopi susu, burger, and more! So, we are excited to show you the event. Check it out!
I've been very busy towards the end of the year. Visiting here and there and travelling to a few places out of town, I got so little time to write a proper blog post, but this MR FOX review has been abandoned for at least 2 weeks now. I've been editing photos just days after visiting the restaurants but to be frankly speaking I got no time to make a proper review. As its still very hot in town, I'll just post whatever I got and hopefully you can judge based on the pictures. I mean the room is amazing, its very comfortable and its very casual. Foods were on points, its Ismaya BTW so there's not doubt about the concept and the taste. So, here we go!
On 21 October 2017, we got the previledge to attend an 'open house' by Jon's Smokery, an online retailer specializing on ready to cook bacon products. They have a few variety of bacons to try which unfortunately we didn't got the chance to try as we were slightly late. They showcased their products
Kopi Susu Bu Lurah ~ That's quite a humble yet catchy name. As the trend of Kopi Susu is rising up to the peak this year, many brands are now competing to offer not only the best tasting kopi susu, but also the cheapest they can offer. And I have to admit that a cup of kopi susu for less than 20k is quite affordable nowadays, and some even offered an uber low 10K during promotion periode. I honestly not really into chasing trend, so whenever there's a certain hype, I simply ignore it. I'll get it when I want it, not when anybody posts it on their social media. This Kopi Susu Bu Lurah is definitely the latest one in the market and in fact only less than a month by the time of this writing (20 October 2017). They have their unique jargon "The Best Kopi Susu in Indonesia ~ Says Pak Lurah" and yeah, its too cliche if we say its the best one, that's why its Pak Lurah's version. What about our version? Well Let's check our review here!
Acai ~ a reddish-purple colored fruit from the berry family originated from South and Central America. Its is believed to have (if not the highest) higher antioxidant than any other berries such as blueberry, strawberry, blackbbery, raspberry and cranbbery. Its undoubtedly rare and unfamiliar for us living in Indonesia for the fact that the fruit itself is hardly found in the market. Up to this point of our writing, we don't have any clue how the exact fruit looks like. But we all know now there's a place in Jakarta to enjoy Acai in a fresh and delicious smoothie bowl: welcome to Acai Bar at Senopati, South Jakarta. Read more!
Mango Bomb is opening its third outlet at Lippo Mall Kemang on 12 October 2017. I was glad to be invited for this special grand opening day where I got to take picture with the owner Nagita Slavina herself! She is a very humble and down to earth if I may describe herself from what I saw. She greeted everybody on the location where a lot of people from medias, bloggers, and customers came to see her personally. Mango Juice is currently the latest beverage trend in the city and Mango Bomb has been quickly spreading their wings. I have to admit that this is the second Mango Juice brand that I tried and I'm glad that I really loved it. I'll take you to a few moments during the opening day!
I was glad to be invited for the soft opening of Masizzim at PIK on 30 September 2017. Its their first outlet in Indonesia and they claim to be the number 1 Korean Stew in Asia. Their outlet in Singapore is always packed and you need to queue for at least an hour, that's what I heard! Well, during the soft opening in Jakarta, they displayed some of their signature dishes on a special table where I got to see their menus. It was also packed with invitees from owners, owners' relatives, medias and food bloggers. I also got to taste a few menus here but I couldn't tell much as I only had 1 Beef Stew dish and the rests were more like appetizers/ starters. Also, watch my youtube VLOG here!
I didn't intentionally plan to make a blog review when visiting here because me and my friends were about to only have some drinks here. I heard a little bit about this coffee shop from my friend and little did I know that this is still from the same group who owns Cassis Kitchen. Apparently, KLTR Coffee is actually located at the same area of Cassis Kitchen. The theme here is some sort of oldies American Vibe like back in 1920s with its respective music as well. Earlier during the opening, they only opened until 5 PM, but lucky now they open until late night 10 PM. Not only Coffee here, you can also enjoy their tasty Lunch and Dinner menus! I'll show you some that me and my friends had here.

OH YA, Please subscribe juga Youtube Channel Kita: Jeffri Leonardo. Yes that's my real name. Thank you guys :)
House of Yuen, that's the name that is probably unfamiliar to most people including us. Located at Fairmont Hotel Jakarta 3rd Floor, House of Yuen is operating under 1 Michelin Star restaurant named Sun Tung Lok. From the name itself, you'll guess it right, its a Chinese restaurant focusing on delivering excelent Chinese delicaciesin an elegance and sophisticated interior. You can really tell by the time you step in to the restaurant. In this post, we are gonna show you some of the food recommendation here. So, without further a due, let's check it out.
Its always nice to stay at a lovely comfy hotel room and to be very honest, this is quite possible the second time I stayed at a hotel in Jakarta. Because I normally picked some nice hotels only when I was going out of town. Harris Vertu Hotel is located at Harmony area,West Jakarta where it is very close to the busy street of Thamrin. FYI, it is also the highest class from Tauzia Hotel Group where you normally know them for their Pop Hotel & Harris Hotel. Without further a due, let's take a look around the hotel.
[UPDATED 26/10/2017] So, some of you have probably read this blog post earlier this October. And as this is an updated post, I would like to share a little bit about the latest food festival at Plataran Dharmawangsa and Plataran Menteng. These 2 restaurants are currently holding a 'True Indonesian Flavors' month where they bring some of the popular traditional/local dishes from all across the archipelego. From the popular Bakmi Bebek Jakarta, Satay Lilit Bali, Gudeg Manggar & Longtong Sayur Stupa Borobudur, and Many more! Catch them immidietly as these limited menus are only available until 12 November 2017. And FYI, all these menus are basically the signature dishes from all Plataran restaurants across the Country.
Its been 3 weeks and I finally managed to visit the most anticipated restaurant in town Greyhound! Its finally opening at Grand Indonesia GF West Mall at the former location of Mad for Garlic. Been waiting for months now and its all paid off once we visited here. Greyhound is specializing in fine Thai cuisines. Expect to find your favorite Thai dishes from Pad Thai, Tom Yum, to fancy Asian Western dishes like Meatball Soup, Aglio Olio and Salmon Carpaccio. I can't wait to show what we had there. Let's check it out.
Welcome to The Sakala Resort at Tanjung Benoa, Bali. Tanjung Benoa is a well kept secret paradise at the south part of Bali, famous for the beautiful beach, the tranquility and definitely the beach front resort! Used to be Mantra Sakala, we were once had our lunch here back in 2015 at their Sakala Beach Club which is located just before the beach. And now they transformed themselves into the new Sakala Resort. We got the chance to stay at their Deluxe Suite Room at the 5th floor, a spacious 60 meter square suite with a huge living room and a comfy luxurious bath room both interconnected with their main bed room. Wanna know more about our experience here? Let's check it out!
Welcome to Cabina Bali - A new tropical theme cafe with turquoise pool at the center as their signature. We got the chance to visit this newly opened cafe in Canggu during our trip to Bali on last September 2017 and it was such a nice place to hang out! It was our last day in Bali (day 4) and we were about to leave the island at night. So, it was so unfortunate that we couldn't enjoy the pool like plunging or floating on the giant watermelon float! We tasted a few of their recommended menu and we are excited to share them with you right now. Let's take a look!
Karma Kandara, a dream resort that I believe everybody wants to experience at least once in a lifetime. But well, not everybody has that purchasing power to stay at the luxurious expensive resort. The only option you can experience is to visit Karma Beach! Yeay a private beach located separately from Karma Kandara resort. Experience going down the hill to the beach with their mini electric cart and watch the amazing view (especially the sun set) on your way down from the hill. Expect to spend at least 500K/person to reach the private beach in which you are given 300K credit to order any food and beverages (exc alcohol) on the bar. Beach was clean and peaceful while being enlivened with the resort's live music performance. Let's check out our beach moments here!
Another high end Japanese Restaurant in town, introducing MOMOZEN! Got the chance to try a few signature dishes here, its located at The Plaza Building at 46th Floor. We were actually invited by Nibble App to visit this restaurant and we tasted 5 different dishes from their Tapas to their main course. The first picture above is their best selling Black Truffle Somen with Caviar (80K), its a cold served somen or angle hair noodle neatly plated with an intense truffle flavor. I was totally sold with this one, it was really addicting! Size wise it was petite actually, so eat with care :p This gonna be a very short review, so let's go!
This image above might look like an abandoned house somewhere in the middle of the jungle. I managed to capture this image from a certain angle in the area. I really love the shot, because it somehow shows the natural side of a resort. Let me introduce you to Wapa Di Ume, a hidden exotic resort in Ubud. We were looking for a hotel 2 days prior to our arrival in Bali and it was like last minutes! I browsed through Agoda.com and got tons of choices. Ubud has been one of the best places in Bali to escape from a busy buzzling city. One thing about picking a nice stay is by sorting the hotel's rating. Wapa Di Ume came out as one of the best with a rating above 8 (forgot the exact). And were didn't make a wrong choice, this easily became the only two most memorable resort in Ubud after Padma Ubud. I have specially put a lot of effort in making this review just for you guys. So enjoy!
Very excited that A&W Restaurant is finally having some new exciting menus. And its not just one, two, or three, but its more than that! Introducing 3 main courses and 3 desserts: American Tender Chicken and Mango Coco Magic. We were fortunate to be invited for the launching of these menus on 29 August 2017 and you guys can have them already at your nearest A&W Restaurant. Do you know that there are around 250 A&W stores all over Indonesia? I never really noticed that big number, especially in Jakarta because there are only two to three stores that I know. But their secret recipes and their famous Root Beer make me come back again! This time I will introduce you their new seasonal menus. Here we go!
Sebuah kesempatan berharga diundang ke acara The Harvest Cake untuk membuat kue Blueberry Bloom langsung dengan Chef nya. Gambar cake berwarna ungu di atas adalah cake hasil ciptaan gw sendiri selama acara berlangsung. Nah bintang tamu nya adalah Mike Lewis nih guys! Jadi Mike juga ikutan membuat cake Blueberry Bloom tersebut, sekaligus sebagai juri juga karena di akhir acara dia yang memilih cake kreasi siapa sih yang paling bagus versi dia. Ternyata bikin cake gampang gampang susah sih guys. Soalnya proses nya lumayan panjang dari membuat bahan dasar nya (cake base dan blueberry creamnya), menata bahan tersebut ke dalam satu loyang bulat, mendinginkan cake tersebut ke freezer, hingga menghias cake dengan berbagai hiasan yang dapat dimakan. Proses nya hampir 3 jam nih guys. Nah di blog kali ini gw akan kasih liat proses membuat cake ini selama event berlangsung. Cek review lengkapnya yuk!
There's finally a nice luxury bistro at Pluit, and I really mean very fine restaurant at Pluit Village. This shopping mall has been an underdog, yes people somehow blindly judge this place as a 'dead' and unpopular place. But lately I found out that there are actually nice cafes inside and its quite hidden on the balcony area or the outdoor area of the mall. I hardly found the location at first until I finally found out that there is an outdoor area. Its a surprised feeling when going inside the room. I was quite stunned by the beautiful decoration. It was Friday night when we came here and it was actually an invitation dinner by The HYPE group. There was no particular event whatsoever, we got invited here purely to enjoy our night in a special beautiful table decor and with a 5 star service! Bravo Le Diliel, you surprised us that night!
Another new coffee shop in town, specifically in Kelapa Gading. I am a very picky person when it comes to reviewing coffee shop. I don't know I just feel like pesimistic about current coffee shop trend where they only sell coffee (I mean standard coffee sorry). But this one HOURS is something fresh and tempting. The whole fresh concept that I saw from the social media really attracted me to come. I visited here for a quick lunch and they have only a few menus to try. I really hope they add some more main course menus, such as steak or pasta because I hardly picked a main course for that little options. But my first impression was pretty nice, foods were fine, coffee was decent, room was quite packed as it was still around a week or two of the opening. I don't have much to show, but hope you enjoy the review. Let's go!
Guys mau kenalin nih salah satu penantang baru di Elang Laut PIK (kaya pertunjukan tinju yaa penantang) namanya Bumbu Rempah, Yeayy! Dari namanya juga sudah cukup jelas ya yaitu restoran dengan masakan Indonesia authentic. Kenapa Bumbu Rempah? Karena memang masakannya penuh dengan rempah-rempah #Eaaaa. Jadi Bumbu Rempah ini ada di deretan paling awal restoran2 yang ada di Elang Laut, atau satu ruko setelah Minus Two kalau kalian tau. Specialist nya sebenarnya di menu Nasi Liwet nih guys, yaitu nasi yang disajikan beramai2 dengan lauk pauk di atas daun pisang yang digelar di atas meja, bukan di lantai ya :) Bumbu Rempah ini ingin membawa konsep masakan lokal tradisional dengan ambience yang cukup nyaman karena berada di indoor berAC dan juga di atas meja tentunya. Package nya ini bisa untuk ber10 loh guys, jadi kalau buat acara rumpi bareng temen atau keluarga seru banget nih. Bayangin kalau makan nasi liwet pake tangan terus disajikan dengan sayur asam, ikan teri, ayam goreng, udang, dll. Mending liat keseruan kita yuk di sini :D
There are quite a few Gelato brands in Bali but there is one that for me honestly to be the best one. I mean it kinda sounds very cliche like BEST is sort of a preference to every individual. But me and Lucy agree that Gelato Factory is by far our favorite. Gelato must be creamy like this and I believe they use the freshest ingredients especially the milk. You can tell how smooth their gelato and it melts very quick in just a few seconds. We visited Gelato Factory at their Seminyak outlet at Jalan Kayu Aya 32 (Oberoi) and it is strategically located at a very buzzling street in Seminyak. If you know La Favela at seminyak, then it is just a few meters away! I can't wait to show you their outlet here!
Rasanya sudah lama sekali tidak makan comfort food aka traditional Indonesian food seperti ini. Terus terang memang kita saking lebih seringnya mengejar kafe2 hits baru sampai lupa dengan makanan tradisional kita sendiri ya. Tapi ada rasa kangen tersendiri ketika melihat makanan Indonesia yang sederhana namun sangat lezat seperti yang satu ini Kedai Pawon Sae by Bogana Milka. Ya Bogana Milka ini sudah ada di industri makanan tradisional selama kurang lebih 20 tahunan. Bisnis nya ini dimulai oleh pendiri nya Ibu Milka dengan resep utamanya Nasi Bogana. Saat ini beliau banyak menciptakan kreasi makanan lainnya yang dapat ditemui di restoran dengan label Kedai Pawon Sae. Kemudian apa sih yang ditawarkan di Kedai ini? Yuk baca selengkapnya.
Its my first time to this luxurious buffet restaurant at Hotel Mulia Senayan and I was quite excited when I first stepped into the restaurant. Its a weekday lunch time when I visited here and I escaped for a while from my work. I was quite stunned by how beautiful the room, the table, and all the decoration here. Food area wasn't quite that big actually, in fact the seating area is 3 time bigger than the food area. I believe its because a weekday lunch, its gonna be different if its dinner or weekend lunch. Oh btw, I was here because of Nibble App invitation. You might have heard the app a few times from my latest restaurant review, because I was invited for some food review here. I am not a typical buffet person, so what I'm gonna show you in the blog post is more to beautiful pictures than a close up of the food itself. Let's check it out!
I'm about to introduce you guys to the most happening restaurant in Gandaria City at the moment, this is Boat Noodle. The idea of this restaurant is to serve you a small serve of Thai noodle which is actually inspired by the real noodle served in floating marketing in Thailand. There's a true reason behind the small serve noodle! While the boat on the floating market is shaking, they try to minimize the soup from spilling by serving a petite size of noodle in the bowl. That's pretty funny to think about because each bowl can only feed you around 2 spoons. So, during the early opening, they tried to make a hype by asking you to stack the bowls as much as you can. Each bowl only costs you IDR 8.500 with one choice of soup and meatball. So, 3-4 bowls still cost you reasonably right?
We were really glad to be invited by Nibble Apps for the reopening of Fountain Lounge at Grand Hyatt Jakarta. We frankly never heard the name before but Fountain Lounge is certainly a legendary. Its the perfect lounge located at the very center of Jakarta at one of the most prestigious hotels in Jakarta as well. Its actually an open space lounge with very high ceiling and located just besides the big window front facing the iconic Bundaran HI. Its certainly luxurious, relaxing and definitely calming. Its also a great place for some afternoon tea / coffee, snacks or some healthy bites. We had some of their signature meals and beverages, so why don't you take a look!
Hayo siapa yang udah pernah cobain Gunung Mas Resto? Terus Terang ini baru pertama kalinya kita cobain dan surprisingly lokasinya ada di The Enery Building Sudirman! Lokasi perkantoran elite yang biasanya diisi oleh cafe/lounge ala western style. Usut punya usut, ternyata pemilik Gunung Mas ini adalah saudara kandung dari pemilik bisnis restoran Chuan Tin yang cukup terkenal. Jadi jangan heran kalau kedua restoran ini memiliki tipikal makan yang sejenis. Gunung Mas ini lebih condong ke arah makanan Indonesia - Hokkian, namun mereka 100% Halal loh! Yuk baca selengkapnya!
NEW VLOG finally after a long hiatus from the vlog business. It really took a while to compose a vlog as I'm not an expert in video editor. But well, here's our latest trip to Lombok, we'll bring you to one of our favorite resort in Lombok or even in Indonesia. This is Jeeva Santai at Senggigi Lombok! We really had a great time here as it was very calming and relaxing. If you haven't read our review here, you better should!
The latest afternoon high tea by Bottega Ristorante at Fairground SCBD. The 2 month old restaurant recently launched their first High Tea set as you can see above. Its a 2 level cake & pastry paired with 2 cups of TWG Tea or Coffee. Not only pampering yourselves in a beautiful luxurious interior yet casual dining, but also serving assorted mouth watering afternoon snacks. This High Tea set costs you IDR 380.000++/2pax, the amount worth to pay for sumptuous dining, strategic location and scrumptious food. I have not much to describe, but let's check out the details!
A new kid on the block, introducing Nebula Kuningan. The fourth establishment of Nebula cafe/restaurant originally from Bali! Its probably new to Jakartans but for those who reside in Bali must have heard their name. We got the chance to taste some of their signature dishes here on Saturday 15 July 2016. And they are currently still in soft opening period and serving lunch & dinner from 11 AM to 10 PM everyday! Its a very bold move for them to create such unique South East Asian dishes in a brand that doesn't really sound like Asian. In fact, this Asian dishes are almost, if not all, different from what they offer in Bali. Let's check out our tasting event!
First of all, congratulation to Kokoro Mazesoba for their Grand Opening of the second outlet at Gandaria City, South Jakarta. Its a very fast move of this new soba franchise from Tokyo, Japan. I thought they were just opening like one month ago and now its another new outlet. There's a mixed review about their signature Zenbu Soba (above picture), some liked it and some hated it. We personally a super big fan, hands down. There's no similar competitor at the moment as they are very unique and authentique. You might compare them to Yamatoten Abura Soba right? Yes, they are similar but Kokoro doesn't have that vinegar sour flavor at all. So, you may pick which one is your favorite. They are also offering special opening promotion! Anyway, let's check out the Grand Opening even on 13 July 2017!
Another new coffee shop in South Jakarta, introducing Sixty Two Coffee aka 62 Coffee! I'm frankly not really into coffee shop lately as I'm more enjoying my cup of coffee at home. But sometimes we gather with our friends at new places, so we look for something fresh to visit. And apparently, this one was my next destination. I came here with a few friends for some cup of coffees, and light meals. so here's my review!
