Restaurant Review Of The Month

Hola! 
What a beautiful day to start your journey actually, but you have to work at home right? No worries after all this pass.. you can do all you want to do .. like going outside see the beautiful blue sky. It is very important these days, you have to maintain your health condition by eating healthy foods and drink plenty of water. Don't forget to take some vitamin C and please stay inside. I prefer you to read my blog instead. Remain calm, make yourself so comfy at your home... do what you love.. as for me I choose to write and share a little bit my experience.

Usually, before I decide to go somewhere else I will always check the review first. Or if I found a cafe or place that accidentally interested enough for me, I will share it on my blog about how I feel and it is an honest review.

I guess my review about food is rated as hotel standard because of my past experienced study and working at a hotel. I would not say that I'm a kitchen expert, but I have sort of experiences that I am quite confident about it. Or you just call me a food lover, that's it.

Okay, I have passed this restaurant by chance, and it looks cute, greenery and the fact that I love plants so much, so I decide to stop by. I did not take any photo from the front of the restaurant. I only took a photo from the inside.

It was on Saturday night but luckily it was not crowded, quite comfy for me or I guess not so many people have known about this place yet.




Here the look from the inside




and it's the look behind me ... I thought it is a real plant but it is a fake one.. there is also some giant neon lamp thing with Love at first sight inscription. The ambience got me so, I would spend more hours just to chit chat with my love ones. Although the plants aren't real, they do look real, so well done for the fancy not so expensive design idea for this restaurant. Okay for the summary of the whole restaurant looks is so instagramable, I give 7 out of 10 for feeding your Instagram post. Believe me, you will not disappointed for taking so many photos in every angle in this restaurant.



Okay let's talk about the foods and beverages

I ordered Italian sandwich it was quite fancy just how it looks from the photos but as for me, the taste is just so-so nothing special, very standard for 35 k Rupiah. All the menu variation is seemed adaptable to the young gen, mostly are western menu like kinds of pasta, sandwiches/ burgers, steaks... Surprisingly, they also have some Asian menu like noodles, curry to Indonesian fried rice. Quite impressed by how they present the menu.

And for desserts and beverages are creative, very into what's in now like variation of coffees and teas, shakes and nitro gas thing beverages that I ordered was Blue Sunshine and not that I was expected as a nitro beverage but when you look the price for 25 k you won't be surprised, it tastes unique but the taste just like the mix of several syrups, not worthy for me for that price I suggest you order shakes or coffees, but if you want to try it that's okay the nitro beverages still look fancy enough. For the desserts, they keep up with the boba which is very popular now on. 

Le's take a look for the price, I think it's quite pricey when you see the food proportion but the way they selling up by packed up elegantly makes the food looks stand out on the photo. Range food about 20 k up to 45 k, for beverages 7k up to 35k very standard. The ambience mostly selling more. Well not bad to revisit the restaurant, but honestly the foods are not the reason you want to come back.





So hi... Thanks for reading my blog, I hope you stay healthy! please revisit and subscribe to my blog. 
Thank you.

A Note To My Self #2








#2Friendship 


/ˈfrendʃɪp/ A relationship between friends.
Friends are passing by like cloud every time, they have some kinda era in your life. But that does not mean you have forgotten the time that you have spent together, through the sunny, snowy and rainy days. 

Sometimes we hurt their feelings or vice versa, well that's alright we are just human. That is how friendship teaches us forgiveness without being an egoist.

They remind us when we forget about who we truly are, they are always there when you need a little push to conquer your mountains.

There is no such a thing as " I " instead there will always " WE ", it's all about us, not me.

I have been reading a book called The Things You Can See Only When You Slow Down by Haemin Sunim, and there's part explained relationship including friendship. It says, " The art of maintaining a good relationship can be compared to sitting by a fireplace, if we sit too close for a long time, we may feel hot or even get burned, if we sit too far we can not feel the warmth". 

As for me in friendship is all about always be the one who wants to be treated kindly. But you gotta follow the formula first, how? By treat people the way you wanna be treated.

Be kind when they're not...

Hope you're surrounded by people who only have a true feeling about you.. if you do have please cherish them.
If it does not work well just be kind even more.

From your true friend of yours

A Note To Myself








Dear future me,                                             

Please do not be so hard on yourself, because life is already hard enough. Please be gentle on yourself ! Don't you ever forget that you are you, still a dreamer with passionate heart, mind and soul, without even knowing what future holds. The only thing you know is just to fight by setting your goals until the end.


Have you seen enough my future me? You have grown now, see yourself on the mirror. Indeed, dreams do truly come true. Remember that! you still have the young soul that you had when you were a high schooler. You were like .. talking loudly about your dream and never thought of what people might think of yourself. Even maybe you are now, would think how silly were you or how bulshit that words. But they did. Those words... they happened in your life. Those beautiful words were your prayers and you kept repeating in your mind and mentioned in your prays, moreover mentioned in your family prays. So now, why are you doubting too much about yourself ? Go see yourself! See your old pictures! 


Remember those lovely days you have spent, seen beautiful sunset and crystal clear water while you were singing your favourite song castle on the hill by Ed Sheeran, walking bare feet along the exquisite beach while carried your favourite tote bag that you bought in the night market with your favourite quotes from paper town movie, saying " I'm in love with cities I have never been to and people I have never met".


Life is indeed a roller coaster said Zayn malik, you just gotta enjoy it until the rest of your life. And as for me, life is truly full of surprises, sometimes it gives you a shock therapy that you need when you're not on the right track, but sometimes a whole world is on your side. Just like one of your fave songs came into reality, it says 'I'm on my way. Driving at ninety down those country lanes singing to tiny dancer and I miss the way you make me feel, it's real and we watched the sunset over the castle on the hill" you witnessed a castle, watched the sunset nearby a river, drove through the beautiful countryside in Pierrefitte. 


what else I can prove to you dear future me?  What do I've missed?


You deserve so much love for yourself... You're too back then were doubting about how far you go but it didn't matter, right? you never think you would fail, do you? Even tho it's hard but you have been through it. But now why are you thinking too much the possibilities of you getting fail? Although all dreams do come true, they take time and efforts my dear me! Don't be distracted by anything! Age? It's just the number, it doesn't define who you truly are. Time? everyone has their own time to have their success. Money? your success doesn't count on how much money do you have, but what you have on the inside, that's your value and your core. Education? education can not guarantee your success but it helps you find who you are by learning every day. Just be focus on yourself growth! and be braver like even more!


p.s you're 10 out of 10 even when you forget!


with loves to my future me that have been so wonderful with your fights, you're stronger than you think.
