ALL IN ONE

How do you like ice cream? If you're following me on my Instagram , you may notice that I am really into ice cream. It became a habit that since years ago, I always look for ice cream places when traveling. My Singaporean friends told me about this ice cream parlor also some other names but I find Tom's Palette quite interesting. Why? Because they have unique flavors, such as salted egg yolk , yuzu , and red wine sorbet . Honestly, I was very excited to try their salted egg yolk flavor, it may sounds weird but in fact really it's not that bad.  Ordered Waffle with two scoops of ice cream ( salted egg yolk and white chocolate nori ), yes went for adventurous palate, it costed us SGD 12.40. Surprisingly I love the white chocolate nori , so good! But the white chocolate was too sweet to my liking. It was eating french fries with ice cream, savory and sweet at the same time. While the salted egg yolk was just fine for me, no rancidity, but you still can taste the grainy textu

Ever heard about Poke? Well, it's a very popular dish from Hawaii, raw fish salad, tuna is the very common one. On my last trip during tight schedule of Influence Asia Award in Singapore (still can not believe that I'm the nominee for Food category representing Indonesia), I came to Aloha Poke  for dinner. The one behind this place is Michael, contestant from Hell's Kitchen Indonesia. Thank's to my dear friend Natasha from Yummy Traveler for bringing me here with Julia from Anak Jajan . We're getting excited thought we're in a rush to follow the next event. Anyway, but we made it, here are some of what we had earlier. But first Coconut Water to quench our thirst. As I know that ingredients in Hawaiian food are pretty much the same with what you can find in Japanese cuisine. Shall we start with  Musubi (SGD 11) ?Sushi-like appearance, wrapped with nori (seaweed), fried spam on top, it was quite tasty as it has soy sauce glaze on top, savory and slightly sweet.

Indian food can be pricey here in Indonesia as it is usually can be found in specialty restaurant but in Singapore (also Malaysia) it's everywhere. Also, finding late night meals in Jakarta is much easier than in Singapore but this place saved us, The Roti Prata House . It was very late and we're super hungry, my first choice was  Maggi Goreng (SGD 3.50), instant noodle that is popular in Malaysia and Singapore but they cooked it again along with some veggies and spices to enhance the flavor. To fulfill the hunger, Masala Chicken Briyani  (SGD 5.50) was quite satisfying, fragrant rice combined with super tender chicken in rich and spicy sauce. More protein from  Crispy Fried Chicken (SGD 4.50) I've always been a fan of this kind of fried chicken, typical Singapore-Malaysian ayam goreng , juicy and tender meat with light crispy batter on the outside. Prata Banana (SGD 3), Corn (SGD 2.50), Durian (SGD 3.50). Crispy Prata filled with various filling such as cheese, choco
