Jakarta in Food: 2017

Putu Made

Putu Made is the newest member of the famous Boga Group which is located at 5th Floor at Senayan City Mall, just besides the Delicae (foodcourt). Bringing the authentic taste of Bali, this concept is totally different from other Boga Group's restaurants, which mostly specialized in Asian & Western food. The interior was modern with a touch of Bali's ornament. Enough sayin', let's try their food.

Warung Tauto Kedung Rasa

Indonesian

Nowadays, we can easily find a wide variety of international cuisine at many restaurants in Jakarta, but as an Indonesian, I believe that deep down in our hearts, Indonesian cuisine remains in the hearts! That's what I thought, period. Back to the topic, recently I just visited a humble yet tiny restaurant, called Warung Tauto Kedung Rasa which serves Javanese food, especially Pekalongan dishes at Kelapa Gading area.

Kabuto Mazesoba

Japanese

Kabuto Mazesoba is a new comer for soba specialist in our lovely city, Jakarta. Maybe they're not the first, but it doesn't mean they couldn't be the best! As we know, ramen attack happened for the past few years and it seems that it's not popular anymore. Now, I guess soba is the newest phenomenon for Japanese cuisine! From what I got from Google, abura soba and mazesoba are very similar, but usually mazesoba has more toppings than abura. Both are served in a bowl and mixed with tare (type of sauce made from shoyu). In order to make it better, you can add chili oil and vinegar as your liking and mix them very well and enjoy it while it's hot!

Kibo Cheesecake

Dessert

Introducing the first molten cheesecake in town! Kibo cheesecake. Yep, the cheesecake phenomenon became the talk of the town recently, with many brands popping out.

Kibo cheesecake has 2 creations : Original molten cheesecake & Matcha molten cheesecake which come with different sizes.

Kibo Large : Original molten (175k) & Matcha molten (190k).

Kibo Mini : Original molten (30k) & Matcha molten (35k).

*For kibo mini they have special sharing package 4pcs for 100k

The cheesecake's texture was soft and fluffy outside, creamy yet moist inside. When I bought the cheesecake, it wasn't melted inside, so I suggest you to enjoy it at home with reheating it in microwave. It has a pretty rich flavor and flavorful aroma.

Honestly, I couldn't distinguish all the cheesecake or cheesetart flavors because they tasted similar. For my tastebud, I prefer the lighter cheesecake.

Nocturnal

Asian

Few days ago, I got a chance to visit Nocturnal at PIK area, an owl-themed restaurant with rustic decoration. The place itself was divided into 2 section; first with natural light and instagrammable wall and the second one with dim lights which represented 'nocturnal' theme. I do love the hanging sweet yet fluffy pink roses along with the bird cages. So cool!

Ivy

Asian

Ivy, located at the Brawijaya street, not far from the Dharmawangsa, I would say this is such a hidden gem for you who's looking for a casual yet intimate place to have lunch, dinner, or just chill for a drink. They serve a wide variety of Asian, Indonesian, and Western food. The place might not be spacious, however I like the ambience here and I think you'd better make a rsvp especially for dinner. At first glance, I thought this was a semi fine dining restaurant, but I was wrong, it's basically a casual dining place which 'looks' like a fine dining one. Let's start from their interior which mostly decorated with wooden things.

MONKS

Asian

MONKS. Finally, l got a chance to visit this happening place few days ago. Well, I rarely stroll around Kelapa Gading area, because of the crazy traffic seriously. In fact, there's lot of great food there. Back to MONKS, I love their minimalist interior combined with woods, white and grey things. So instragrammable! Especially the iconic wall. The place has 3 floors, which the most beautiful one goes to the third floor. I got very comfortable to have lunch here, and I'll be back for sure when I get around here maybe just for coffee. Let me show you first how cool the place is!

TOF Sicacilla

Asian

TOF Sicacilla. I guess that TOF means tarts & coffee. TOF Sicacilla is a tiny yet humble coffee shop which located at the Italian Walk complex of Mall of Indonesia (MOI). It wasn't hard to find it, exactly in front of the MOI's lobby 8. When I came here, there were some people with their notebook and coffee, of course. Yep, this place is such a comfortable place to have coffee and also work. The ambience was nice, but there's no natural light spot like nowadays coffee shops whereas the place has dim lights.
