Breakfast with fruit is good 👍👍 (and safe..)

Dimsum~ I bought it from Tata, it’s tasty and price-worthy~ definitely will repurchase 😋

Tried Aice mochi ice cream~ also tasty and cheap~

Tried out new food court near office. It has Clemmons, so 👍👍

Went to Naylah’s Wedding. It’s been a lovely time meeting with you all~ feeling so so so grateful 😆

While these collection of events and foods have been exciting, there are also some other things that highlighted my week. However, I need some time to write them 😅

So, see you on the next post!

New Year's Holiday

Day 1 & 2: Arrived in Jakarta

Bought Beard Papa’s. My favorite is eclair puff with vanilla filling 😋

Obviously it becomes one of my comfort foods!

Trees and tall buildings…

Day 3: Arrived at Home

Colorful plants by my mom. I hope I could grow some lettuce or kale by myself this year haha

Chizprek.co , please open in Bandung! 😋

Soto Seger Boyolali for breakfast, near home.

Quality time with lil bro. Sorry for the blurry picture :p

My mom, lil bro, and I made baked mac n cheese.

The Sims 4: Yeay!!!

Being introvert is easy. LOL.

Day 4: New Year’s Day

Family dining out. Alhamdulillah all of us could gather on that day. Also alhamdulillah for Sate Maranggi H. Yetti Cibungur being open on new year’s day. FYI, they are only closed in Idul Fitri day and open since 8 a.m. (info from their whatsapp business, you can get the number from their instagram here : https://www.instagram.com/satemaranggihajiyettycibungur  )

Besides the satay, I would like to recommend their fritters (a.k.a gorengan). I think you should order each of the fritters because they are so tasty especially with their chili sauce!

The fritters and sauce deserve a picture 😋

This short holiday is full of tasty meals. Alhamdulillah 

Taylor Swift Reputation Tour

Another highlight from this holiday is Taylor Swift’s Reputation Tour in Netflix !! 

“Please don’t ever become a stranger whose laugh I could recognize anywhere” – New Year’s Day by Taylor Swift

 

Now that it’s January already, I can recover from the family and social events in December #introvertbatteryislow.

See you on the next post! 

Madiun – Dec 2018

Just several photos from my trip to Madiun this month. Wish I could stay longer haha

#sorryfornotsogoodphoto #justhavetopostit

The Double Decker Bus

How we went to Madiun: double-decker bus!

It’s indeed an interesting experience! The bus was comfy. I could sleep well haha. The cost for one person is Rp325.000 if I’m not mistaken. And the most important thing was I could charge my phone in bus haha #noworryforbattery

I traveled from Bekasi around 3 p.m. and arrived in Magetan (my grandpa’s village) at 6 a.m. the day after.

The height compared to the Mixer car…

See you on the next post! 😆

Lunch Box

Simple Gado-Gado

Green lettuce, boiled egg, tomato, bitternut cracker (or emping, not in photo) with gado-gado sauce (also not in photo). I got the sauce from my mom since I had not learned to make it yet haha. The colors are so fresh, right?

Boiled egg. This was my second attempt on making boiled egg and the result was good, at least it’s not undercooked 🙂

Now that I realized… I should have noted the method I use to boil the egg otherwise I need to search the internet again… #justremembernow

Fruits: 🍓 & 🍊

Strawberries are looked like candies, isn’t it?

Look at the center of the orange! It’s like a small flower! Very nice! 🍊

btw, this kind of orange has only a few of seeds

See you on the next post 🙂

Foods & The City: Mom's Bakery & Madam Potato

“White tall building in Bandung and the greeneries~” 

Mom’s Bakery

If you go to Bandung and looking for food that’s guilt-free, very tasty, and healthy you should try Mom’s Bakery (https://www.instagram.com/momsbakeryindonesia). Besides the delicious cake, pastry, bread, they also serve salads, omelet, sandwiches, smoothie bowls.

My favorite is the sandwich. The concept here is we can choose what bread, fillings, and sauces we want. In the sandwich picture above, I choose croissant for the bread, smoked beef for the protein, and homemade barbeque sauce. For a smoked beef sandwich, it costs me Rp45.000. They also have vegetarian options for the sandwich (falafel sandwich, tempeh/tofu sandwich)  

Recommendation time to visit: In the morning around 8-9 AM. Why? Because at this time you can smell the bread being baked…. and it’s soooooo goooood! Isn’t it delightful having a nice breakfast accompanied with the smell of bread being baked? 🙂

Madam Potato

I bought this potato snack because I like french fries and it has cheese sauce (and seaweed sauce). It cost me Rp30.000 for a portion. A unique thing about this potato snack is it’s very long, probably 25-30 cm each. The portion is quite large, probably for 2 or 3 people. Crispy outside, soft inside. Taste good and worth the price. 

I think that’s all for now, see you in the next post!

Kedai Kita Bogor

Mie Hotplate Ceker Saus Padang. Di belakangnya ada Mie Hotplate Daging Sapi Lada Hitam. Harganya sekitar 30-40 ribu.

Pizza kayu bakar dengan topping smoked beef. Harganya sekitar 80 ribu.

Makanannya enak-enak (enak banget, bukan yang B aja). Cocok buat tempat makan keluarga. Banyak menu lainnya juga.

Weekend

Expectation: wake up late, have a slow day

Reality: woke up early, took a bath before 6 a.m.

At least I got to eat these foods:

Telur Geprek

Cheese Roll

Cheesecake For Breakfast

Makasih ka Emil 😆😆

Weekend: Birthday, Crazy Rich Asians, Great Foods

We had a dinner at Tamani Cafe to celebrate my mother’s birthday.

No, it’s not my birthday.

The crown supposedly for mom. I voluntered to wear it because this remind me to an entertaining novel I read: Crazy Rich Asians. See pic below. Handsome, right? #eh Haha!

(Image from: https://teaser-trailer.com/crazy-rich-asians-movie/)

Btw, the full trailer comes tomorrow. Can’t wait for the movie!

Other highlight for this weekend is my favorite snacks finally available in go-food! It’s siomay and lumpia from Bubur Ayam Jakarta, Kemang Pratama Bekasi.

Another highlight is I tried baby shampoo and baby bath soap because my skin is very dry these days. For my skin, I haven’t feel significant improvement (still gonna use it to see more improvement). For the hair, I can see a result. The baby shampoo does make my hair shinier though not as soft as conditioner does to mine. Btw, I wonder if it’s ok to use conditioner after baby shampoo? Because from what i know, conditioner can remove shampoo residue.

Personally, I believe that this baby soap and shampoo are good for my skin because it has less soap than adult soap. Because I already prove that with my face wash. My skin feels better when I used soapless facial wash (mine is from sensatia botanica, the unscented one). The face wash does not dry out my skin!

Fried Sticky Rice (Ketan)

Crusty golden brown sticky rice. I fried this with a table spoon of olive oil on a frying pan. It works! (Usually, we deep fry it. LOL)
