Buns & Meat Jakarta: Home For Amazing Pork Dishes

Image
True that today it's much easier to find pork dishes in a restaurant in Jakarta. Back to few years ago, it's quite hard, unless in a Chinese restaurant. From Kuala Lumpur to Jakarta, Buns & Meat offers more than just a burger, I said amazing pork dishes. It is located at Ruko Crown Golf Pantai Indah Kapuk, close to First, let's start with something fresh, I got fresh apple juice, what I like is because they separated the sugar syrup so you can really adjust the amount of sweetness as your preference. Flavoured Latte, very interesting, it was Peach Latte.  apple juice IDR 18.000 peach latte Honestly I have no idea if they're specializing in pork dishes until I came and looked at the menu, as most of the time (I know some of you did it too) I browse on Instagram account before visiting the restaurant. Well anyway, no regrets, though I am not a super fan of pork but seriously I can't say no to their Charsiew, it was sooo good. Smoky, sweet, slightly charred fat, a

Resep: Sausage and Bean Sprout Omelette Recipe

I noticed that omelette is a very popular in Bangkok especially at street food vendors. Probably because it's cheap and fast. They use a bit more oil for frying the egg, the result is a crispy omelette, best with hot steamed white rice. From the classy egg only omelette to seafood, personally I think the most important ingredient is coriander leaves aka cilantro, or here we called it daun ketumbar ( wan sui ). Usually they put some on top of the omelette, even better with the garlic chili sauce. This dish is inspired by the street style omelette, with sausage and bean sprout, but feel free to add the other ingredients, also I posted about how to make the Thai Garlic Lime Chili Sauce on my previous blog post.  Ingredients : 2 eggs 1 tbsp water 1 sausage, sliced a hand full of bean sprout some coriander leaves salt and pepper to taste 3 tbsp cooking oil Directions : Crack the egg into a bowl, add in salt and pepper, mix, set a side Heat the pan on medium, pour the oil, stir fry the

Perfect for cafe hopping and street food at the same time. One of my favorite condiments, Thai Garlic Lime Chili Sauce , sweet sour salty and not to spicy to my palate. This recipe is inspired by my trip to Bangkok last December, I had fried fish cakes at Chatuchak Weekend Market , they gave me a super tasty sauce as the condiment. So, I tried to make my own, it's not the same but if you're into fresh spicy and sour sauce, this is for you.  fried fish cakes at Chatuchak Weekend Market Ingredients : 1-2 clove garlic, minced 5 or more bird's eye chili ( cabe rawit ), sliced 3 tbsp lime juice 3 tbsp fish sauce 2 tbsp sugar 2 tbsp water chopped coriander leaves ( daun ketumbar ) Directions : Mix all the ingredients, leave for 10-15 minutes before serving.

Sudahkah pernah ke Australia? Lebih tepatnya, ke negara bagian Victoria dengan Melbourne sebagai ibu kotanya yang merupakan tujuan wisata populer. Selain itu, Victoria dikenal sebagai produsen pangan terbesar di Australia dan terkenal sebagai penghasil buah-buahan berkualitas. Mengapa buah-buahan dari Australia? Tidak semua buah-buahan bisa ditanam di Indonesia yang beriklim tropis, dan sering kali cukup sulit untuk mendapatkan buah-buahan tertentu yang berasal dari negara 4 musim seperti plum , nectarine , anggur, dan peach . Jarak antara Indonesia dan Australia yang cukup dekat, memungkinkan kita untuk memperoleh buah-buahan segar tanpa harus khawatir dengan lamanya proses pengiriman.  Selain itu, buah-buahan dari Victoria dikenal dengan rasanya yang manis. Hal tersebut dibuktikan dengan cara mencoba sendiri tentunya dengan beberapa menu yang sudah disiapkan oleh Chef Yuda Bustara pada event Now! In Season Australia . Pemerintah Victoria juga memiliki aturan yang cukup ketat dalam p
