Farmhouse @ Jl Raya Lembang, Bandung

It's holiday season HO-HO-HO! And here's the newest place in Bandung you can visit, Farmhouse. Located at Jl Raya Lembang, you can easily spot this place, since there's a large signletter in front of it.

Farmhouse has a great european village theme, till I can imagine myself walking around with the old european dress and hat. It's a great place for pre wedding session or just for a crazy photo time with friends.




On the outer rightside, you can found a small zoo. There are sheep, bunny, bird. And there's a small flower garden too.

Sosis Bakar - Rp 15.000 
Sunkist Juice - Rp 25.000
To get in, you just have to pay Rp 20.000. And don't lose the ticket, since it can be redeemed with fresh milk or sausage. It can also be used as a discount voucher for food & beverage inside. I used mine as a discount voucher for juice, but i don't recommend the sunkist juice since it's basically a syrup. My friend choose melon and the other one choose pineapple banana. Both are fresh ones. Yum!

Farmhouse is a good getaway from town, and it's not very far too.

Lastly, happy holiday folks ^o^ And merry christmas HO-HO-HO

Sudirman Street @ Jl. Sudirman, Bandung

Sudirman Street is the latest hyped food market in Bandung. It can be accessed from either Jl Sudirman or Jl Cibadak. And it gets merrier and crowder as the night goes. The street is clean, spacious, with no cars passing by. Basically...it's an upgraded Jl Cibadak.


Come in Moment :D
There's around 20 food stall in here, ranging from chinese food, nasi campur, noodles, sandwich, satay, kuotie, wonton, martabak asin, sandwich, es campur, crepes, tahu gejrot, etc. And, here are some that i've tried.


Nasi Hainam Komplit - Rp 40.000
Nasi Campur Kencana, their long queue got me curious, so i ordered their Nasi Hainam Komplit. But when it came, it's just good.

Kuotie - Rp 50.000 (10 piece)
Kuotie Kelenteng, it's fried nicely, tasted good.


Pork Satay - Rp 65.000 (10 skewer)
Pork Satay from Kedai Kun Kun. It's different from the usual pork satay i've eaten, since it's not overly sweet and served with mild peanut sauce.  Yum-meh.


Mango Juice - Rp 10.000

Ice Cappuccino - Rp 12.500
A refreshing mango juice from a juice cart near Nasi Campur Kencana. And the Ice Cappuccino from SS Kopi tasted like an instant one. I think it would be great if they can served coffee made with espresso machine, since i've seen none inside nor in nearby area.

There are many food that i wanted to try, but my tummy capacity is maxed out already. So.... I'LL BE BACK hohoho

Since it's a Ramen restaurant, they have plenty choices of Ramen on their menu. I had their Tonkutsu Ramen. And i like it a lot, the tender and springy noodle, the savoury thick pork broth, It's just delicious.

Takoyaki

Now who can resist these balls of Takoyaki? It's adorable to see the dancing katsuobushi when they served it. FYI, Katsuobushi is made of shredded fish meats. I took a bite of it, and it's moist, gooey in a good way.

Mosaic All Day Dining Restaurant @ Jl Lembong, Bandung

Mosaic is a fusion buffet dining restaurant, located inside Crowne Plaza Hotel, which just opened 2 months ago. The interior is grand, with granite tiles, high ceiling, colourful glass window, cozy dining chairs, and wooden tables. It really gives you THAT luxurious feeling.

Come in Moment :D
They have 9 stations: noodles, bbq, western, indonesian, chinese, sushi & sashimi, salad & soup, fruit, dessert.
Choices of noodle
Glass Noodle in Tom Yum broth
At noodles station, you can choose between variety of noodles, topping, and soup base available. There are 3 types of soup base, chicken, beef, and tom yum. I had Glass Noodle in Tom Yum Broth. And the tom yum soup is great, it had that kickin' spicy and sour flavour. Delicious!

Dim Sum
Right beside Noodle station, you'll find Dim Sum, They serve Shumai, Har Gao, and Spicy Chicken Leg. Tastewise, it's average.

BBQ station
BBQ Station
Bbq station is located outdoor, there are lots of choice here, from bratwurst, chicken, beef, shrimp, squid, lamb satay. I think it's better if they bbq more than orders to avoid lonq queue and waiting time.

Baked Potato
You'll find Baked Potato on BBQ Station, but it's not seasoned at all. Just a bland, natural potato taste.

Beef Steak
Grilled Lamb Leg
Western food station is my highlight for Mozaik. They served BEEF STEAK here, which is cooked medium well, just as my personal liking. It's really delicious. Yum yum! There's also grilled lamb leg and pasta.

Peking Duck
BRAISED PEKING DUCK!!! You can find this on Chinese food station. This is GOOODDD.

Salad
Cookies
Homemade Ice Cream
Doesn't it look appetizing? There are sugar cookies, assorted traditional kuih basah, pudding, es campur on Dessert Station. And there's also homemade ice creams! The ice creams are not over milky, have a soft texture, and good taste. I tried green tea, vanilla and strawberry. Lovin' it.

Fruit Station
I super duper like their Fruit Station. As you can see above, there are lots of fruit choices. You can also take the apple, or passionfruit on that container.

Rp 215.000++/person
Every Friday-Saturday, from 6 - 10.30 pm 

Now i have good news for all of you, Mosaic currently have SPECIAL OFFER, where you can get 50% discount for every purchase of Rp 1.000.000++ dine in transaction until the end of November 2015. That would be very affordable for this kind of buffet. Ay? Then, how about planning your weekend dinner here?

Bing Soo @ Jl Sukajadi, Bandung

Say HEY HO korean food lovers! This is one of the first korean restaurant in Bandung. Perhaps many of you, Bandung residents have tried this. Yet, this is my first time here *shy*

Come in Moment :D
The place is a humble one, just like an ordinary home with tables and chairs. I like how they arrange the tables so it's quite spacious between one another, make it comfier for chit chat.

Dak Galbi - Rp 75.000
I tried their Dak Galbi, it's marinated chicken in gochujang sauce sauteed with tteok (rice cake), fried wedges, and cabbage. It came in a surprisingly big portion, perfect for sharing. Had this spicy and soury taste.

Dak Twgim - Rp 55.000
Their Dak Twgim is awesome. Look at that! It's crisply fried and perfectly coated with honey. Sweet :D

Deji Bulgogi - Rp 65.000
And this one is GOOODDDD, Deji Bulgogi. It's really good to ate this with a bowl of warm rice. The pork meat is nicely cooked, tender and had the right thickness. It's savoury, and  had this refreshing subtle pear taste. Yum!
Pat Bing Soo
I'm such a sweet tooth who can't resist such a delicious looking Pat Bing Soo. Mix it together and you'll get the red bean's and chocolate sauce's sweetness, the sourness of strawberry & mango. It's just totally refreeshing.

Sooooo.... Their Deji Bulgogi is one of come-back-for-more menu to me. And there is still more that i haven't tried yet.

Street Gourmet goes around Bandung

Have you ever dine in a moving bus? Well, if you haven't, you should try Street Gourmet. This is a unique and creative idea. I think it's really really suitable for tourist, either domestic or international. You get to travel around Bandung with a guide that explains about landmark, road that you passed.
Apron!!
Currently, they have 3 choices of menu package. Each represent Indonesian, Chinese, Western food. And each consists of salad, soup, main course, dessert, and drink.

Nicoise Salad (Gourmet 1)
Sweet Sour Salad (Gourmet 2)
I ordered Gourmet 1 & 2. After we started moving, they served Nicoise Salad, and i really like it. The vegetables are fresh, well seasoned, generous amount of smoked beef. Really a satisfying appetizer. While Sweet Sour Salad from Gourmet 2 is a bit bland, and the carrot shreds are still raw. I'll like it more if the carrot shreds are poached a while.

Top - Bottom: Potato Soup - Green Peas Soup
Next up from Gourmet 1 is Green Peas Soup. It has a really thick green peas taste and texture, giving you a sweet, creamy flavour. I tried the Potato Soup too. It is good, savoury, creamy, and served with garlic bread.

Burger Steak (Gourmet 1)
Manchurian Chicken (Gourmet 2)
Time for main course yay... From Gourmet 1 is Burger Steak. The presentation really lift up my appettite. Tastewise, burger meat is not as solid as my liking, and the mushroom sauce is a little bit too sweet. While Manchurian Chicken from Gourmet 2 is too thick in batter.

Panacotta (Gourmet 1)
Volcano (Gourmet 2)
Desserts presentation are PRETTY. Don't you agree? Gourmet 1's Panacotta has this sweet love shape, it's a mango flavour with sweet soury taste. While their Volcano is good, it's still a bit melting inside.

Drink
Last is the drink. It's the same for any package you chose. A cold refreshing 'markisa' drink.

Overal, what impressed me is their plating. It's clean, and beautifully arranged.

So here i am, back on the bus station. It's really a new, pleasant experience, and i enjoyed it. You can have it too for Rp 150.000/pax. Go on, take your phone and call for reservation. And i hope they'll have more packages to choose from.

Universal Ramen @ AEON mall BSD city, Serpong

Hello from AEON! This is currently one of the hippiest mall around. I am really super duper excited about going here. and HERE I AM. It's a sophisticated, spacious, modern kind of mall. I mean, if you have the chance, you should come and take a walk.
Hence, i'm hungry and came to Ramen Village. Doesn't it look attractive? 7 ramen restaurant are gathered together here in one village.

What i tried is Universal Ramen, the one in the middle. First info, they serve pork. But don't worry since they also serve chicken, beef, and ebi.
Ramen Butao - Rp 58.000++
I really like Ramen Butao, The pork stock is mild, rich in flavour, and seasoned well. Pork meats are tender and juicy. And the ramen has a perfect texture, not too firm nor too soft. I'm so enjoying it down to the last sip. One thing they need to fix is the stock, they should have strained it so it looked cleaner and instagenic *wink*

Ebio - Rp 58.000++
Their Ebio is also has this wonderful fragrant ebi and shrimp stock. Though it has a reddish colour, don't worry, it's not spicy at all. But i wish they would topped it even with just 2 shrimp. It would make this Ebio more tempting :D

Ramen Genkio - Rp 58.000++
Now this Ramen Genkio is curry based one and it tasted good.

Ice Green Tea - Rp 10.000 (free refill)
I had ice green tea for drink, and you can refill it as much as you want *happy*

It's a delicious food, but it would be much better if they strained the stock first. And they really need to fix their order assignment. Really need to pay attention more. Mine got slipped on 3 orders, and i had to wait more than an hour for my food to came.
