Recipe: Matcha Oreo Popsicle Recipe

Image
I came up with this idea because I personally a big fan of matcha and coconut in the same time. First I though that it'd be just my personal liking, but it turned out really good. I asked some to taste, and they said they love it because of the combination of bitter sweet and savory from the coconut, so I assume, it's definitely worth to try. One thing to remember, get a good quality of matcha powder. Ingredients : 200 ml coconut milk 100 ml milk 4 tbsp sugar 1 tsp cornstarch 1 tbsp matcha powder or to taste 4 chocolate cookies sandwich toasted sliced almond (optional) Please watch the video for the directions: Find me on: Youtube ,  Facebook , Snapchat  and  Instagram   @heytheresia  for daily food and travel updates  @tereveler

Resep: Easy Croque Monsieur Recipe

Image
Sounds fancy as it's French, Croque Monsieur , a typical sandwich from France along with Croque Madam (with fried egg). I used white bread because that's all I have in hand. What makes it different from regular sandwich is the sauce, white sauce made with butter flour mixture ( roux ) and milk. I found that some also use cheese sauce to replace the bechamel . Lately, it can be found easily at not only in restaurants but also at some coffee shops here in Jakarta. The most necessary, cheese, to me it's not a sandwich without cheese.  Emmental and  Gruyere is the most common, but feel free to add your favorite. I did not have   both so I used  Butterkäse , soft cheese with buttery flavor, very popular in Germany, too bad I can't find it here in Indonesia. My sister brought me some, well to me it's precious hehe.. It's great for sandwich with stringy melting effect like mozzarella but better.  Ingredients : 2 slices bread of your choice, buttered the outter side 2

Have you experience camping? Some of you probably had the experience while in school. Sleeping in real tent, sleeping bag, camp fire. I was excited when I heard about this place, welcome to a newly opened resort in Lembang, it's Trizara Resort . Offering a different experience, glamping, a luxury camping with resort services, comfy bed, a great idea for a weekend getaway. Yes it's not just a camping site, but unlike any other resort, because here you'll sleep in a real tent. Anyway, they also have function room (I mean tent) for company gathering.  It took about a year to build this resort, team up with the locals, definitely an interesting story about this place. Based on simplicity, a peaceful place that blend harmoniously with its surrounding. Not only the nature but the people. Their staffs are the people from near by village, I believe it will bring positive impact for both sides. The Room You don't need to set up the tent, just check-in and check-out. There are fe

Located in Senopati area that already packed with numerous restaurants, Asiatale Resto & Bar offers more than just a place to eat. They have modern Chinese interior, live music, drinks, spacious dining area, and of course good food. Unlike most the restaurants nearby, here, it's the place where you can enjoy hearty Chinese Food with your family or hangout with friends yes because they have lounge upstairs. The first question to answer, do they serve pork? NO! No Pork No Lard. Because, it's in the south? I don't think so, it's because there are good Chinese Food for everyone. But if you're a bit skeptic about this place as they're not serving pork and not using lard, throw away the thoughts, I will share some of the dishes. Started with Asiatale Selat Popiah , stir-fried glass noodle and chopped veggies inside crispy shell, followed by the Five Spice Binjai Chicken . The popiah was good but to oily to my liking, while the chicken was tasty, deep dried, salt

When it comes to dining at a luxurious hotel, buffet restaurant is probably the most popular. Once I came to Mandarin Oriental Jakarta when about applying for Schengen Visa as the hotel is located just beside the German Embassy. I've heard (a lot) that they are known for their cakes collection, also they're the first that introduced Cronuts in Jakarta, and it is still a hunt for the certain citizens. A hybrid of croissant and doughnut, found by Dominique Ansel Bakery in New York City. Well here, The Cake Shop, one of the finest dessert destination in Jakarta, offers more than cronuts, to mention, chocolate pralines, assorted truffles, macarons, individual and whole cakes with very interesting creations.

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
