Monsoon Cafe @ Jl Sirnamanah, Bandung

Let me tell you a secret... Monsoon Cafe is my current favourite working area. As in their tagline Coffee. Co.work , I also enjoy my working time here. Cozy ambiance, free Wi-Fi, and easily accessed location. And free coffee if you co-work with them.

Monsoon Cafe has indoor and outdoor dining area. I like their interior, dominated with bluish grey hue and some spotlight. At the upright corner, you'll find my fave spot. Cozy couch, a quite large table for my netbook and electric plug. You need that for work don't you? He he...

Monsson Java Dipped Coffee - Rp 32.000

Here I tried their signature, Monsoon Java Dipped Coffee. A very instagrammable one, and very appetizing when it's served. Just dip the chocolate into the coffee and let it melt all da waayyy... wait, I mean, till your personal preferred taste. Got mine melted entirely and I got a hot chocolate.

Sweet Licco

Another signature of Monsoon Cafe, Sweet Licco. And the good news is, you can get this for free by posting and mention them @monsoon.cafe on instagram. Please ask the staff beforehand if this promotion still ongoing, okay?

Back to the review, this Sweet Licco is pretty ordinary. Just a very light and mild sweet coffee, kind of like a flavoured water. This drink is great for those who limit their daily caffeine intake.

Avocado Ice Coffee Latte - Rp 32.000

The Avocado Ice Coffee Latte is nice. I like the avocado flavour which is combined with coffee aroma. It's just perfectly balanced.

Iced Lemon Squash - Rp 26.000

Monsoon Cafe also served non coffee drink. There are teas, mineral water, etc. And also squash, which I tried. The Iced Lemon Squash is splendid. I like the tanginess and sourness, added with a little kick of soda. Totally refreshing. And I think it will be perfect visually if the seeds is strained first.

Waffle Cinnamon Almond - Rp 27.000

When my tummy went hungry, I ordered the Waffle Cinnamon Almond. This one is recommended. I like the butter crisp waffle. I like how the ice cream is not melted easily. I like the nice sprinkle of almond and cinnamon powder. It's delicious. Yum!

French Fries Four Season - Rp 22.000

The French Fries Four Season is nicely fried. It is served 4 kinds of sauce, which is tomato sauce, chili sauce, mayonnaise and mustard. But don't take too long to finish it, because it will be soaked and not crisp.

I have a pleasant moment here, delicious food and drink, and I hope you'll have it too. Cheers!

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.

Two Hands Full @ Jl Sukajadi, Bandung

Coffee, anyone? Two Hands Full, one of my favorite coffee shop in Bandung. The coffee here is nicely brewed, with awesome smell that lingers all over the room. My avid coffee friend once told me, the best coffee doesn't need any additional sugar. And that's what happen when i sip Cappuccino here.

THF Signboard!!

Come in Moment :D

Interiors is a typical coffee shop one, with industrial unfinished look. There's a coffee bar and a small outdoor area. I personally prefer to sit indoor to chat and hangout with some friends. But for photo taking purposes, outdoor is the best with its vintage wooden table. Service is good, i don't wait too long for my food & drink to be served.

Two Hands Full's food concept is all day breakfast, so don't expect to find any main course menu here. But fear not, it's in a medium or large portion, which is enough to keep your tummy filled.  Now let's get started!
 

PP Sliders - Rp 50.000

This Pulled Pork Sliders is de-li-cio-so. The pork is nicely marinated, fragrant and not overly sweet. I love to squeeze the lemon juice a bit, which give a tangy, refreshing flavour. Ah, one thing to noted, the pork is in shredded form and overall, it gives more texture as you eat it. French fries is nicely fried.

  

Omega Lovers - Rp 60.000

When i look at this menu, oh wow, i'm drooling right away. Really really full of omega with that salmon and double eggs over there... And it's THAT smoked salmon which make the whole dish magnificent. The way they poached the egg too, it's PERFECTLY runny. But as a whole dish, it still lacks flavor. I think it would be better if it's drizzled with some sauce.

PP Quesadillas - Rp 50.000

If you like spicy food, you may want to try this PP Quesadillas. It's made of spicy chili shredded pork on a tortilla wrap.

Eggs in Hell - Rp 55.000

This Eggs in tomato salsa Hell is really yummy, I think the sauce is alike with Bolognaise Sauce. Who agree? And the eggs is also PERFECTLY poached. Yum!

Pulled Pork Bene - Rp 60.000

This Pulled Pork Bene is a complete meal! I got carbohydrate from toasted bread, protein from egg, fat from pork, and vitamins from the vegetables. I love the crisp toasted bread, runny egg, and fragrant shredded pork. And the BEST part is, the shredded pork is marinated with beer. That's why it has a tender texture, nice fragrant and taste. I recommend you to cut it straight, and munch everything on top of that toasted bread rather than eating it separately. It really gives you THAT delicious burst in your mouth. My personal favourite chu~

Oreo Mille Crepe - Rp 38.000

This Oreo Mille Crepe is the best one that i've tried in Bandung so far. It's made by Lareia Cake, and available at Two Hands Full Coffee. The mille crepe layers is awesomely thin and soft, so when you eat it, it melts in your mouth. Double yum!

Snicker Mud Cake - Rp 39.000

Have you ever tried Mud Cake? It's made of chocolate and really has a mud like texture, which is gooey and sticky. The snickers give additional twist to the cake. Good.

Affogato - Rp 30.000

Affogato is one of that drink i'll always order in a coffee shop. Since it's made of espresso shot, it defines how good and fragrant is the coffee bean used. While vanilla ice cream neutralize the coffee bitterness. I'm in love with Two Hands Full's Affogato. The affogato is amazingly fragrant, sweet and creamy. Happy ^^

Cappuccino - Rp 28.000

I always like to see latte art every time i ordered hot coffee in a coffee shop. Well here in Two Hands Full, it seems like they made it in a hurry because the shape is not too pretty. Tastewise, it's awesome. No need to add any sugar.

Iced Mocha - Rp 30.000

Simply nothing ever went wrong with their coffee so far. The coffee bean is nicely brewed, so just choose one that suits your personal taste. Above is their Iced Mocha.

Iced Chocolate - Rp 30.000

The Iced Chocolate is good. One of a good options here when you'd like to drink something else than coffee.

Sooooo..... Two Hands Full is one of my recommended coffee shop to visit in Bandung. Love the ambiance, the service, the perfectly poached egg, the food, and mostly, the COFFEE.

Warunk Segood @ Jl Cihampelas, Bandung

Halloo hollaa... Here's another addition to indomie restaurant fever in Bandung, WARUNK SEGOOD. Besides indomie, they also serve fried rice, toasted bread, fried beancurd, chicken & french fries. And another good news is, all menu's price is under Rp 20.000. Yay! So enjoy your 'nongki' hangout time here :D

'Come in' Warunk Segood

From now on, i'll post 'come in moment' photo like this hoho.. It's what you see as you step in. Warunk Segood has this industrial, undone interior, wooden tables and chairs. I think it's nice for a little chit chat & snack time.

Kentang Kukukriuk - Rp 17.500

This Kentang Kukukriuk has a crispy french fries & chicken served with bbq sauce. What i like is the chili powdered chicken.

Ropang Jasuke - Rp 17.500

This one ME LIKE IT *nyam*

Ropang Jasuke aka jagung susu keju. You can taste all toppings mentioned above in a delicious way. And the bread are toasted perfectly. It has the good crispiness as you munch it.

Milo Shake, Silverqueen Shake, Red Velvet Shake @ Rp 15.000

Meet the beverages of the night, from left to right, Milo shake, Silverqueen shake, and Red velvet shake. Which one looked more delicious?

The milo thickness on Milo shake is good. I love it! 

But the Silverqueen shake is far from my expectation. It is a 'not too' vanilla shake with crushed silverqueen on top. I thought it would be blended like a chocolate shake. I don't reconmend this one.

Will i come back? Yup

Waroenk Anyar @ Jl Astana Anyar, Bandung

Just opened 2 months ago, Waroenk anyar has become one of youth hangout places in Bandung. It sells variety of light snacks, desserts, and drinks. They open daily from 5-11 pm.

There are only few tables here. But I like how they give enough space between tables to enjoy your crazy, chit chat time with your friends. Yay!

Seblak Siomay - Rp 10.000

Since i'm craving for seblak, i ordered this Seblak siomay. But it's not recommended. This menu lack spices.

All about Cheese

Next, i'm having all about cheese. Love the presentation. I actually expect mozarella kind of cheese spring roll. But i barely taste the cheese, it's more like a caramellized one.

Rabbit Ice Cream - Rp 25.000

If you follow me on instagram, you must have seen this one. RABBIT ICE CREAM. Love this one a lot! Adorable presentation, and a nice, refreshing lemon sorbet. Highly recommended.

Sujokdo - Rp 17.000

Sujokdo, don't ask me what that means hahaha, is single scoop ice cream (on picture is matcha & vanilla) topped with marshmallow, oreo, gummies, candy coated chocolate. Cute presentation. I just don't like the gummies & candy chocolate toppings they use.

Vanilla with All about Chocolate - Rp 25.000

Last one is Vanilla with all about chocolate. Two scoop vanilla ice cream with various chocolate kind of toppings.

That's all folks! I'll still come back to Waroenk Anyar to try their other menu, especially curious for their breadbox & indomie menu. Thanks for reading till the end 
