Rumah Makan Medan Deli

We had an assignment out of the office around Kemayoran area and one of my friend suggested us to had lunch here..

Easily to find the restaurant because it's located at main street. We came during lunch time, so there're many cars parked along the roadside...  

They served Malay cuisine and many of them seem like Padang dishes with thinner coconut milk.. They also have Padang restaurant style-serving.. The restaurant's special dishes are Fried Punai (a kind of pigeon) and Snapper Head Curry and we must tell the servant if we want to order them..

I ordered Fried Punai and took Cassava Leaves Curry.. The punai was soft and uniquely sweet.. The leaves came nicely with thin coconut milk.. I had them with warm rice and green chili sambal.. Hmm..what a delicate combination..!!

a little review of BIG Apple Donuts

One more donuts store in Jakarta..we may say that the name is relatively new on “donuts-racing” in Indonesia..



*Rating : 7.2/10*



*Apple (5k)
A donut with chocolate and apple sauce on top..Sweet and sour…

*Strawberry (5k)
A pink-strawberry sauce on top donut with whipped cream filling inside..cute match..!!

*Black Forest (5k)
A donut with shredded chocolate and strawberry garnish on top with whipped cream filling inside..

Okay, my champion is the pink Strawberry..!! The taste is lovely..! But, overall the donuts’ dough are quite soft and nice..and there are still many variants of donuts to try..so, enjooyyy..!!!

Angke Restaurant

Angke is one of the famous chinese restaurant in Jakarta. They have 2 branches in town : Ketapang and Kelapa Gading.. This time, we try their dishes at Ketapang branch, their first restaurant...

Sorry, I forgot to take the pics inside.. As I remembered the room is big and full of round-tables.. It's really a family resto...  

Ayam Garam (Salted Chicken) - Boiled chicken with salt and hint of garlic.. Not really nice and I think, we had a wrong dish here.. We should ordered Pek Cham Kee (salted chicken with more chop of garlic and more oily)
*Rating: 6.5/10*

We ordered Lumpia Babi (not sure about the english name =P).. It's delicious, meaty, and came up in generous portion ^^
*Rating: 8.0/10*



This is a nice but not too special Sapo Tofu Seafood.. Again, it came up with generous portion...
*Rating: 7.7/10*



Then we ordered Beef with Blackpepper Sauce and one of their signature dish, Sauteed Eel with Fumak.. They have the eel crunchy with a lot of red yeast rice (angkak) sauce..Nice..
And..we must try the beef !! It's really really juicyy!! Surely a great cooking technique.. I don't talk about the taste but the tenderness is completely wonderful.. It taste delicious though..
*Rating (Beef) : 8.5/10; (Eel): 7.7/10*


 *Rating (Overall) : 7.7*

I don't know about the exact price, but it costed us around 90k/person.. The rice is served in all-you-can-eat style and I'm sure two more people would be fit for us because we went home with very full tummy.. =p

Ketoprak Royal - First Love in Jakarta

Hii..since this is my first posting then I want to review about my first-remembered-meal when I came to Jakarta...

Located in the middle way of Royani I Street.. Find it easily when you get the way from Prof. Dr. Satrio Street...

The basic ingredients: garlic, salt and red chili (amount as request)

Mas Heri the maker...



And yup..the best ketoprak I ever had...
*Rating : 9/10*



 It's not about the cost (7k) but it's really really that deliciouss!! (for me and some of my friends admit it).. The peanut sauce is thick and nice..the rice cake, beansprouts and rice vermicelli are good, but you won't miss the fried tofu because it's the best.. Also, they come in generous portion... Simply heaven, my first love in Jakarta...
