Tjendana Bistro @ Jl Sukajadi, Bandung

Got a recommendation on Tjendana Bistro from a friend and here I am. The restaurant is spacious, bright and really cozy. It is in U-shape with a garden in the middle and a small playground at the upright corner of the restaurant. I think this place is great for family time or family gathering. Interior is minimalist, with wooden tables and chairs. Well, since i went here on Chinese New Year, there're lantern decoration throughout the room.  

Come in Moment

Welcome Snack - Rujak 

Tjendana Bistro is serving Indonesian food. Annddd as a welcome snack, I got a plate of Rujak. Yay!!. It is made of cuts of fresh fruit, like water apple, mango, cucumber, sweet potato, which drizzled with peanut sauce. A refreshing starters!!

Mie Goreng Spesial - Rp 36.000

This Mie Goreng Spesial is yummy. It's the typical noodle that I like, which is neither too soft nor too dry. The noodle is nicely seasoned, sweet and savory. It is cooked with chicken, shrimp, egg, chinese cabbage, and beansprouts.    

Mango Chicken - Rp 58.000

Mango Chicken, THIS ONE is definitely my favorite and the champ of the lunch. Deliciooouusss! The chicken is nicely seasoned, it's sweet with a bit of sourness from mango cuts. Really refreshing. Annddd there're some hints of coriander on this menu, which i like.  

Grilled Jumbo Sotong - Rp 88.000

You know, when i read the name, Grilled Jumbo Sotong, the first image that popped in my mind is a big sized squid. So i'm a bit lost here. And since it's grilled, expect around 20 minutes waiting time. However, they managed to cook it perfectly. It's soft and easy to munch.

Beef Soup Garang Asam - Rp 65.000

Sup Garang Asam here is a twist to the authentic one, with coconut milk added. But, i think it made the soup tasted more like Soto Betawi. I'll like it better if they add more cucumber tree since the sourness is still not kickin' enough. Taste is good.

Es Cendol Green Tea - Rp 22.000

I'm really happy that i ordered this Es Cendol Green Tea, since it's really GOOD. Everything blend so well, the cendol, green tea ice cream, and cuts of jack fruit. I really like how the green tea taste is not overpowering. It's just fragrant, mild. and lovely! 

I had pleasant food dining here at Tjendana Bistro, and right now i'm drooling over the Mango Chicken and Es Cendol Green Tea. I'll come back for it!!!

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?
