Pier 16 : Seafood Resto in Pantai Indah Kapuk

 

Pier16 is newbie resto located in Pantai Indah Kapuk, new food district in North Jakarta. I invited to their food tasting with many fellow blogger. Before I invited to Pier 16, I already knew there is Pier 16 who served seafood. I am seafood lover and I really happy that there is seafood resto invited me of new way enjoying seafood. 

Pier 16 have cute way of enjoy seafood, not like high-end seafood resto or not like hawker seafood resto. They served in their way to enjoy seafood. They served seafood in western way, even we also see they served Indonesian way to served seafood.

Hong Tang

I'm kind of person who sometimes eat food start from appetiser, main course and dessert. Maybe I could skip the appetiser but I don't think so I could skip dessert because I am sweet tooth. Since I have sugar craving more than savoury craving, long time I heard yummy Taiwanese dessert called Sweet Poetry from Anak Jajan. But unfortunately I don't really familiar with Muara Karang area, until Sweet Poetry change their brand name become Hong Tang and open their store in PIK, so couple of weeks ago I went there. Before I went to Hong Tang, I don't have any idea what is Taiwanese dessert look like, til I come there and taste it, I really love it so much.

Mille Crepe in Pancious Pancake House

It is too early to back home after attended Job Fair in Gatot Subroto street, I asked my friend Bella to occupied me had culinary trip. It was unplanned culinary trip. The first place pop up in my mind was Plaza Indonesia, but I came there twice or third in that week, so I change my direction to Pacific Place. With taxi, on 10 am we reached Pacific Place.

So here's Bobabits, beside they sell bubble tea, they also sell snack like takoyaki, chicken wings, and etc. I went to Bobabits in idul fitri holiday and I went there not in lunch and dinner time, so visitor is less than their another daily working hour. From outside, Bobaits is eye catching coz they have catchy neon box and the outside area is so unique.

Rati-Rati is japanesse roll cake, I know Rati-Rati from Wanderbites, he said the roll cakes so soft and smooth, so when Deal keren offered the special deal, so I just click to buy button then I could trade in the period that they defined. So finish with two kinds of bubble tea and my tummy is going to explode, so I decided to took away Rati-Rati as my  food stock at home. 

Ochado

When Idul Fitri holiday, my family didn't go out of town, so we decided to find food new hype food center in north Jakarta not too far from my home. In Pantai Indah Kapuk, there are three bubble tea, that is Bobabits, Ochado and Mr Tea Inc. Ochado is come from Japan, but my sister, Irene knew Ochado from Pavillion, one of the biggest mall in KL. So here we are tried the bubble tea from Malaysia.

Sukhothai : Aunthentic Thailand Cuisine in The Media Hotel Jakarta

Last week, I was invited with The Media Hotel to breakfasting tried their Thai resto named Sukhothai. Sukhothai is one of the best authentic Thailand Restaurant in Jakarta. Many of Thai resto in Jakarta served fusion Thai food, but not Sukhothai. Sukhothai is all you can eat Thailand resto. When I went to Sukhothai as an all you can eat Thailand resto is not too high. I doubtful with Thai food that they served, until I tried them I am super impress with them. I feel like my tongue connect with the Thai food. Maybe it is because Indonesian food and Thai food have many similarity, the spice they used also the ingredients they use.

Ramen 38 is common ramen place in Jakarta. They served many kinds of soup of ramen, but they only have 1 style of noodle. Ramen 38 served many kinds of meat like chicken but they also served pork. Also they served 2 size of ramen, small and regular, so if you don't want to eat too much you could order their small size ramen. 

Henis

Chocolate bread and Roti Ayam Baso @ Rp.6,000,-

Henis is one of my favorite mini bread. Henis is popular between Chinese people who love bread and chicken. So am I, I love Henis too because of the their roti baso ayam which is super duper delicious. The bread texture is smooth, and the bread is thin but the chicken is full so when you eat Henis, mostly you could feel the chicken not the bread. Beside that, Henis is not only selling roti ayam baso. They sell cheese, chocolate, chocolate chesse etc. So if you vegetarian, you could taste Henis too.

In fact, Henis main store in Mangga Besar street, but since last week I was shopped in ITC Mangga Dua so I bought Henis in ITC Mangga Dua. Also in their main store they not only sell the bread, also they served food and beverage. I never try their food but it seems the bread is delicious, most likely their food and beverage is great too.
