Such a refreshing moment when you can find another good coffee shop in Jakarta. After lots of new coffee shop in Tangerang, now Jakarta has a quite promising to get you caffeinated. It's located in Plaza Festival, Kuningan, where this Lucky Cat Coffee and Kitchen stood. Truly good concept with super comfy and nice interior! You can lingered for hours in this place, great ambiance and also it's freakin' 24 hours! Such a promising coffee shop I guess. In the middle of this coffee shop there's a towering tree and it might become an iconic thing for Lucky Cat Coffee. Filled with wooden architecture made me and Windy amazed. Brewing Bar Second Floor Is it nice? Manual Brew Collections It's quite packed when we visited Lucky Cat, it's Sunday back then so we didn't expect too much. Ordering a hot cappucino and latte with their house-blend, quite nice I think. I can taste it has mid-body, a little bit creamy and brown sugar flavor. I forgot what they use it as the

It's a whole new experience when we visited Maple & Oak in Menteng. Located inside De Ritz building , we found it as a nice brunch cafe with lots of tantalizing menu. There are so many positive responds about this place so we went s traightly to have our Sunday's brunch here. I was so hypnotized by the Coffee Butter Steak & Egg (138k) dish, scrolling around their Instagram and I found this menu was so amazing by it looks. A medium-rare seared Angus sirloin steak was so nice! Juicy texture that will just melt in your mouth for sure! The coffee butter gave me a little spark inside my mouth to make my medium-rare steak more delicious! Inside this dish contains sauteed mushroom, baby spinach, mashed potato and sous vide egg. All of it combined really well. Coffee Butter Steak & Egg (138k) As I enjoyed my dish, Windy also enjoyed her Maple Butter Brioche (78k) . Soft and light toasted brioche with signature maple truffle butter, beef bacon, scrambled egg, salad and

The signature dish of PAVELA, cilantro butter rice that was served with vegetables and slow roasted Peruvian spiced chicken. The chicken was the star of the dish because of its special and aromatic taste! When it goes to slow-roasted process, usually it will get you a tender texture of meat and juicy inside.

Eugene The Goat - Bandung

Image
Finding a good cup of coffee in Bandung is an easy thing! Just like in Jakarta, there are plenty of good coffee shops and some of them are in my top lists of my favorite coffee shop. Far away from Bandung downtown we found Eugene The Goat is quite mesmerizing coffee shop. Located inside the lobby of Clove Garden Hotel , they have semi-outdoor tables, not so many but enough for 20-30 peoples. Before I found this coffee shop in my instagram explore tab and I thought it was in Japan or somewhere else, but luckily it's here in Bandung. The view, the weather, the coffee all of them are a perfect match! Peaceful ambiance with sometimes the breeze was pretty awesome! The brewing bar at Eugene was great! It just facing straight to the outdoor view, brewing while enjoying the beautiful scenery would be a stress less job as a barista haha! Well the coffee as good as the view, for espresso based they only have one blend inside their hopper, but if you are lucky you can get their guest bean
