A Luncheon Fashionably On Time and Trend

By Pauline Parry

Every year  Wildflower Linen puts on a fashion show in Orange County using owner and creative director Youngsong Martin's fabulous linens as the dresses. It's a lot of fun and is always on trend. In this case, the mixture of pastel tones, lace looks, taper candles, silver and low floral centerpieces was the perfect forecast the next season of event "fashion."

The guests were the ladies of Chapman University. The Mille Fiori designed the flowers and Good Gracious! Events created a menu rich with style and taste (and just a touch of humor).

Yap yap! Mereka baru aja opening new restaurant di Kota Kasablanka. Well, bukan Sunny Side Up, tapi anak dari group Sunny Side Up, yaitu House Of Omurice . Kalian bisa langsung temuin House of Omurice di area Food Society lantai Upper Ground, terpampang besar dan jelas dekat dengan escalator. Strategis banget kan lokasinya? :D Dan mereka punya ruangan indoor dan outdoor, sebenarnya outdoornya masih di dalam mall, but ya! Lokasinya tidak di dalam outlet. Untuk dekornya sendiri, masih ada unsur-unsur Sunny Side Up dengan perpaduan warna gold dan biru.

Yuk lanjut ke makanannya!   Menu-menu di House of Omurice lebih fokus dan mengarah ke Japanese Food . Well, aku bisa bilang, menu mereka menar

Saine Daise Bistro - PIK

Couple of weeks ago we had another wonderful dinner with family and friends. We've been scheduled our visit to Saine Daise Bistro at Pantai Indah Kapuk (Jakarta Utara). Stalking to their IG account we found out there were plenty of eye-catchy dish that we might want to try! So it doesn't took so long for us to order our target.

Spent a high quality night with great experiences both for food and ambiance! We all start with Honey Glazed Chicken Wing (45k) and  Calamari with Shrimp Paste Mayo Dip (55k) , a simple light bites before satisfying our tummy with main course. For me it has decent taste and just nice as an appetizer. Honey Glazed Chicken Wing (45k) Calamari with Shrimp Paste Mayo Dip (55k) Their pasta menu definitely is in our must-try list! We both agreed Ami Ebi Angel Hair (8
