Bebek H. Slamet

Image
Suatu siang yang super panas, kemudian entah darimana tiba2 kepingin makan bebek goreng. Dan yang terlintas tak lain dan tak bukan adalah Bebek Goreng H. Slamet di Jalan Panjang karena lokasinya yang terdekat dan mudah dijangkau. Bersama dengan seorang teman, R, kami berdua segera meluncur ke lokasi. We're so ready to make this sunny afternoon even hotter! Sampai di lokasi, walaupun dari luar terlihat kecil, ternyata bagian dalam restoran ini cukup luas dengan deretan meja dan kursi panjang. Udara panas siang itu coba diredakan dengan kipas angin yang menempel di dinding hampir setiap meja.  Tak lama setelah kami duduk, seorang akhirnya menghampiri meja kami dan menyerahkan menu dan dengan sabar menjawab pertanyaan kami soal berbagai makanan yang tertera di menu. Walaupun namanya restoran bebek, tapi disini juga menyediakan ayam, jadi bagi yang gak suka bebek, masi ada alternatif. Akhirnya saya dan R memilih menu paket bebek goreng, nasi, lalap, tempe mendo...

Union: Union made is well made they said

It was a Thursdate with my two dancing mates, S and N. Masing-masing berangkat dari kantor dan janjian ketemu di Union, Plaza Senayan. Tempat hangout super hype selama 2tahun terakhir ini. Dan emang dasar kalo gak macet namanya bukan Jakartam it took almost more than 30 minutes for N to get to Plaza Senayan from Ratu Plaza. I was the first to arrive from the three of us, and FYI i was on time, got there by exactly 6.30PM. And as always, Union was full almost every time i went there, so even i already made the reservation for 6.30PM, i still have to wait around 30 minutes to get my table. Selalu suka sama atmosphere disini. Sebelumnya kesini selalu sore sekitar jam 3an, tp yang kali ini dateng pas jam dinner (dimana kalau di Union, setiap jam lunch dan dinner diharuskan untuk reservasi terlebih dahulu) dan ternyata suasana malam bikin suasana di Union jadi tambah romantis. Kali ini merupakan kali ketiga gw kesini, and in my previous visits i only ordered desserts an...

Parc19 Bistro Terrace Kemang

Hello again, another pending review. Last 2 week, me and my friend, A, decided to have our haircut at our favorite salon, Dido Salon Bangka. After waited for hours for the rain to stop, finally we got there at 4PM (we planned to get there by 11AM! blame on the rain!) Why we like it here? Terhitung murah buat kelasnya. Yang potong ya ownernya langsung, Mas Dido. Setiap kesini selalu ketemu minimal 1 artis sih, jd asumsi saya salon ini udah cukup terkenal, bahkan ada customer dr Bandung yang bela-belain balik jakarta cuma demi potong rambut di Dido kemudian malemnya balik lagi ke Bandung. Harga potongnya 100rb, udah termasuk cuci, potong, blow, hair tonic. Mas Dido orangnya baik banget dan ramah. Setelah coba sana-sini ya emang salon ini sih yang cocok di hati, mata dan dompet :) Nah kebetulan salah seorang teman saya, M, ngajakin nongkrong. Lokasi doi di daerah Bintaro, dan kebetulan krn saya ke salon di deket Kemang, jadilah kemudian kita berdua janjian ketemuan di Parc19, dan kare...

Canteen, Plaza Indonesia

(This is a pending review since 3 weeks ago.) Me and my friend, W, decided to meet at Plaza Indonesia after work. Unfortunately it was raining hard and so it was so hard to get the transportation. I waited almost 45minutes just to get angkot from ITC Ambasador. Then i decided to take ojek to the busway station and took busway to avoid traffic around Bunderan HI. And finally i arrived around 7PM at Plaza Indonesia, met W at the bus stop in front of Plaza Indonesia and went straight to Canteen, since we both so hungry. You can access Canteen by passing through Zenbu or aksara. By the time we arrived, the restaurant was packed but we still managed to get a table. The dining area seperated into 2 areas, smoking and no smoking, but located side-by-side. They offer quite a wide selection of food and beverages. There are appetizer, salad, pasta, steak, rice, soup, dessert, mocktail, cocktail, tea, etc). And they have cocktail promo, buy 1 for 2, but we're not in the mood for cocktai...
