Caribou Coffee @ Paris van Java mall, Bandung


Welcoming Caribou Coffee to Bandung. Yaayyy!!! Founded at Minnesota in 1992, it has become one of the well known coffee franchise in the world. Their first stall in Bandung is located at Paris van Java mall, just right beside Black Canyon Coffee.

Come in Moment!

I'm very excited since i'm such a huge coffee fan. Who in the same boat with me?

Their interior and exterior are painted mostly in pastel blue, except for the 2nd floor. And I'm so crazy about the fireplace. Two times here, but I haven't got any chance to sit nearby. Ugh! But I won't give up, no no.

As for the coffee, a friend told me that Caribou Coffee's signature is their CHO-CO-LA-TE. So it's recommended to try their chocolate related drink, such as Turtle Mocha, Ice Mocha, etc.There are 3 types of chocolate to choose, which is white, milk, and dark. 

And and aannddd the coffee they used is DECAF coffee, which is great news. Less caffeine, but still high in antioxidant. Nice!

Ice Turtle Mocha
I had their signature Turtle Mocha. It is made of real chocolate melted into steamed milk and combined with espresso and caramel. Opted for a less sugar one, which I regret then, since it reduce the caramel syrup. Oh no... Don't repeat my mistake okay.

Now less sugar makes the Turtle Mocha has a similar taste with regular Iced Mocha. For Iced Mocha, tried both dark and white chocolate, and I love the White more. The white chocolate gives more fragrant smell and milkier taste, wonderful.

Bagels Multiseed @ Rp 15.000, Cream Cheese @ Rp 10.000
While sipping my coffee, i'm having this delicious Multiseed Bagel with Cream Cheese. I like how they rebake it a while before serving the bagel. And the cream cheese topping is splendid, it's really cheesy and spread easily.

Ice Cappucinno
Cappuccino is a regulars in a coffee shop, and here it's bitter. If you like your cup of coffee a bit sweeter like me, you can add more sugar/brown sugar/honey at the counter.

Cream Brulee Danish - Rp 20.000
Tried this Cream Brulee Danish too. It's layered like croissant, but crispier. And this danish is filled with generous egg tart like filling. Sweet! Plus point for not shattered when I cut it into bite size pieces.

Almond Croissant - Rp 28.000
Saved the best for the last, my favourite pastry, Almond Croissant. It smells great when it's served and it's really delicious. I enjoy every single bite of it. A nice layered, flaky texture with buttery filling. Yum yum!

It's a wonderful coffee time with my dear friend at Caribou Coffee. And someday, you might find me there, enjoying my cup of coffee.
