Coffee Kulture Pluit: Home For Tasty Baoger


North Jakarta, not as hip as the South but lately it's getting pretty excited to explore. If years ago, the area filled with mostly family restaurant, nowadays north people can easily find place to sit and having a cup of good coffee. While Ombe is more Instagenic and always packed especially on weekend, Viveri Coffee is probably too hidden and not very easy to find. More than a coffee place, Coffee Kulture offers so much more, from good food to cozy spot to hang out with friends also suitable for working. 

Among all the dishes, the one that caught in the eye was their Baoger. A burger with bao aka baozi to replace the bun. There are two to choose, Beef or Chicken Baoger with your preferred bao, steamed or fried. Beef patty, cabbage, caramelized onion, bacon, generous amount of mayo and yellow mustard, potato fries as a companion. While the chicken version looked not so attractive but really you can't judge the appearance, it was surprisingly super tasty. Definitely made for Asian's tongue, tangy seasoning, fresh coriander leaves. Lemongrass mayo, brings out the flavor. 



I enjoyed coffee occasionally, though I'm not a right person to talk about the coffee here. Few visits are paid with refreshing Milo Dino, iced Milo with Milo powder on top. Unlike when eating out at some other places, water or unsweetened tea is always be my first choice, but here Milo Dino. It was a love at the first sip, haha.. Anyway, it's just me, I used to not drink it back days. If you're looking for something that is too cute to eat, go for their sweet Bao.

Resep: Salmon Mentai Rice | Beef Shirataki Mentai

Image
It's delicious but really I could not finish one portion, yes thank's to the amount of mayo. So, let's just share.  Mentai Rice , it's actually very easy to make as long as you have kitchen blow torch or use the oven to broil the mentaiko sauce. The sauce itself is made from mayonaise, preferably Japanese mayo like Kewpie and mentaiko (pollock roe / cod roe). If it's hard to find then simply replace it with tobiko (flying fish roe). Please do not skip the fish roe. Anyway, I bought the mentaiko from Tokopedia around IDR 270k for 500 grams, that's a lot, I know. Alternatively, take a look at Papaya Supermarket or other big supermarket as mentaiko is kinda hard to find here. I made 3 dishes with this Mentai sauce, the first one is the one with crabstick served with rice that mixed with nori powder, you can also use furikake. The second is nori rice with salmon aburi. Lastly, sweet and savory beef with garlic butter shirataki noodles. Well, the last one is definite

Resep: Savory Waffle (Pepperoni + Cheddar Cheese) Resep

Image
I've made waffle many times, and I prefer of light and crispy waffle to bread-like waffle. Adding some tapioca flour gives a quite significant result, also separating the egg though mostly I skipped that phase. Anyway, waffles are great with syrup, chocolate, fruits, and ice cream but have you ever tried savory waffle? With bacon, smoked chicken, sausage, cheese, or pepperoni. Freshly made waffles are best, when making waffles make sure that you have all the toppings ready on the table.  Ingredients : 1.5 cup all purpose flour 1 cup tapioca flour 2 eggs 1/2 cup plain yogurt 2 tsp baking powder 2 tsp baking soda 1 cup milk 1/4 cup melted butter 1/4 cup vegetable oil 1/4 cup pepperoni, sliced 1/4 cup green onion, thinly sliced 1/4 cup red cheddar cheese, grated salt to taste few tbsp of water, if needed Directions : For the dry mixture, add flour, tapioca, salt, baking soda, and baking powder into a bowl, mix well. In another bowl combine egg, yogurt, melted butter, oil, and milk. Co

Nomz Kitchen & Pastry Grand Indonesia: New Menu

Image
Ones behind Nomz, Arnold Poernomo and Pastry Chef Kim Pangestu. Famous for their sweet treats, but how's the food? At this time, I'd like to introduce some of their new menu. First let's start with something fresh, salad. I've been a fan of Nomz's Tomato Salad for quite a while, now they have two more, Middle Eastern Salad (IDR 80.000) and Fried Calamari Salad (IDR 60.000). Not for everyone, but me as one who really into greens. Calamari salad might suit to people in common, dressed with balsamic lemon, topped with fresh arugula, coriander, and shaved parmesan. My guessing it's balsamic reduction as it's sweeter than balsamic vinegar. Meanwhile, Middle Eastern Salad is actually tabbouleh, usually made using bulgur but they replaced it with quinoa , yes for superfood! Pretty healthy yet fulfill the hunger longer. Have no idea what's quinoa ? Google it, it's 2015, eat your superfood!  Move on to  Nomz Prawn Roll (IDR 105.000) garlic chili prawn, gr
