Hello burger lovers! This time, I try Burgushi – a burger shop located in PHX, Grogol. Burgushi is at the 2nd floor, near the “lounge”. So, you can buy the burger and eat it in the lounge with full AC. Honestly, the concept of open kitchen in PHX (for almost all food tenants) is very interesting in which the customers can directly see the cooking process from the outside. However, the place is so hot! Better to dine in the lounge. This place is suitable for weekend-hangout for youth.
Back to Burgushi, I ordered 3 menus : Beef Wakame, Tuna Aburi, and Salmon Mentai. All flavors of the burger is from Japanese food, that’s why I call it a fusion between western (burger) and east (japanese food flavor). I also ordered the french fries and the ocha.

This is Burgushi’s signature dish. So tasty and beefy. The meat is tender, while the wakame tasted good. It does not smell fishy at all. I think it is a good combination to put the healthy wakame inside the patty.
The tuna meat is tender and good. The roasted tuna tasted good, but tasted salty. It should be sweet. Maybe due to the sauce is lack of sugar at that time. Overall, it’s good.
Ths is my favorite burger after Beef Wakame. I love the salmon, the seasoning is just perfect! For you who are on diet, better to choose this. Tasted good and still healthy.
French Fries (15k)
Actually, I don’t like french fries. However, I love the fries in Burgushi. The ‘fat’ shape and seasoning are just perfect for me. Must try!
Overall, I enjoy my lunch in Burgushi. The burger is small, but full of meat. Just enough for my lunch’s portion. The price is economical and you can choose package of burger + french fries+ ocha. Happy eating!

Hello food lovers! Baru-baru ini gw pergi ke Medan untuk urusan business trip. Di tengah kesibukan kerja, gw sempet cobain kuliner-kuliner di Medan yang enak dan halal (non-halal cuma nyobain mie nih). Yuk kita intip kuliner enak di Medan.
Avocado Coffee Float
Wah ini kuliner wajib banget kamu coba! Alpukat Macehat ini sebenernya adalah alpukat kocok atua biasa disebut avocado coffee float. Alpukat yang dipakai adalah alpukat mentega, jadi gausa heran kalo rasanya mantep banget!!
Lokasinya beradai di Jl. Karo No.20 Medan. Tempat tersebut selalu ramai pengunjungnya. Mau beli aja harus antri panjang. Tempatnya tidak terlalu luas, sederhana, layaknya kedai kopi biasa.
Signature drink di sini adalah Avocado Coffee Float (IDR 32k) yang cantik untuk difoto dan rasanya juga enak banget. Jus alpukatnya dicampur dengan es krim dan single shot espresso.
Avocado Coffee Float
Buat yang ga suka espresso, cukup memesan alpukat original saja. Rasanya creamy, bold, sweet, sedikit salty, sedikit gurih, dan segar! Cocok banget diminum panas-panas di Medan (kota ini panas banget dan kering, jadi cepet banget haus). Gw sarankan kalian ke sini saat sore hari.
Macehat Coffee
Pondok Gurih
Menu utamanya selain nasi padang adalah Gulai Kepala Ikan Kakap.

Soto Medan Ayam
Soto Medan Udang dan Sapi
Indomie Bangladesh
Ayo pecinta Indomie! Wajib nih kamu coba! Warmindo (Warung Makan Indomie) merupakan tempat makan di mana semau status sosial disama ratakan karena semuanya pasti suka sama Indomie. Salah satunya adalah Warmindo Agam Senyum di daerah Multatuli yang buka 24 jam. Kalo weekend rame banget, jadi kamu mesti pintar cari waktu yang pas sebelum ga kebagian tempat.
Warmindo menjual menu utama Indomie, baik kuah dan goreng. Variasi menu di Warmindo ini adalah Indomie Bangladesh (nyemek pedas), Mie Aceh, Ifumi Goreng, dan ada juga menu non-Indomie seperti Nasi Prang dan Nasi Goreng. Indomie di sini dimasak dengan bumbu racikan masing-masing Warmindo yang menjadi keunikan setiap Warmindo di Medan.
Nasi Prang
Ciri khas dari Warmindo di Medan adalah mereka menyediakan variasi minuman, mulai dari tehtong (teh panas), teh mandi (teh manis), teh kocok telur, bandrek, minuman botol, sachet, dan apapun yang kau minta, hampir pasti dapat mereka sediakan. Semua harga menu di sini sangat ekonomis dan under IDR 20k. Murah banget kan! Dengan harga segitu aja kamu bisa kenyang makan dan minum. Untuk makan di sini, lebih cocok dimakan saat malam hari sambil nongkrong dan ngobrol hingga larut malam.
Mie Aceh Kering
Mie Aceh adalah kuliner khas Aceh yang terbuat dari mie kuning yang dimasak pedas dengan campuran daging sapi ataupun seafood (udang / cumi / kepiting) yang dimasak kering / nyemek / basah (kuah). Mie aceh mungkin bisa dengan mudah ditemukan di Medan. Namun Mie Aceh Titi Bobrok adalah warung yang paling populer dan paling ramai pengunjung.
Tempatnya cukup besar dan ada 2 lantai. Dapurnya di lantai 1 dekat pintu masuk di sebelah kanan. Biasanya kalo malam, tempat ini sangat ramai sampai waiting list. Harganya juga terjangkau dan kalian bisa menikmati mie Aceh yang enak dengan aneka topping berbeda : sapi, udang, cumi, dan kepiting. Selain mie aceh, ada juga mie ayam, mihun, nasi goreng, dan sebagainya.
Menurut gw, ini mie aceh paling enak di Medan. Mienya bulat, agak keras (menurut orang Medan, kalo menurut orang Jakarta sih ini enak ya), bumbunya juga kuat spicesnya. Wajib coba Mie Aceh Kepitingnya yang nyemek dan enak banget! Gw paling suka makan di sini. Walaupun ramainya minta ampun, servicenya cepat. Harganya juga terjangkau. Kalian lebih baik menyantap mie aceh ini di siang hari karena kalian bisa saja waiting list di malam hari.

Mie Aceh Titi Bobrok
Buat anak muda, belum lengkap kalo belum nongkrong di Merdeka Walk. Tempat jajan outdoor ini berlokasi di seberang Bank Indonesia. Di sini, kalian bisa memilih food tenant seperti Nelayan Tenda, Starbucks, Oppai, dan masih banyak. Konsep food court ini sangat ramai dikunjungi anak muda pada malam hari disertai live music. Kalo belum terlalu lapar kamu bisa melihat-lihat aneka souvenir khas Medan yang ditawarkan di salah satu stand. Menurut beberapa orang harga makanan di Merdeka Walk Medan agak sedikit di atas rata-rata harga makanan di pusat kuliner lainnya di Kota Medan dan nggak cocok sebagai tempat jajan di tanggal tua seperti sekarang. Namun, tempat ini wajib kamu kunjungi untuk makan malem sambil mengobrol dan mendengar alunan musik, menikmati suasana malam kota Medan. Merdeka Walk cocok dikunjungi pada saat sore hingga malam hari karena suasana dan dekorasinya lebih bagus di malam hari.
Pangsit Goreng Tahu
Merdeka Walk
Buat pecinta chinese food, kamu bisa mengunjungi restoran Nelayan yang cukup populer di Medan dan terdapat beberapa cabang di Medan. Gw icip chinese foodnya di dalam Mal Centre Point. Tempatnya cukup besar, elegant, dan ramai pengunjung saat malam hari. Dekorasinya agak gelap dan terdapat sentuhan Chinese decoration di dindingnya. Harganya cukup pricey, mengingat ini restoran kelas menengah ke atas. Untuk makanannya, ada a la carte dan dimsum. Cobain sapo terong dan sapi lada hitmanya ya. Enak! Dim sum nya juga enak. Kalian bisa makan di Nelayan saat lunch maupun dinner.
Nelayan Mie Jaring
Durian Medan
Buat pecinta durian, kamu wajib coba Ucok Durian. Tempatnya super rame dan ga pernah sepi pengunjung. Durian Medan lebih harum dan lebih pahit (fermented taste) dari durian di kota lain. Pas masuk, kamu sudah mencium bau durian dari jauh. Gw sarankan kalian menyantap durian di malam hari setelah dinner karena tempat ini buka hingga tengah malam.
Durian di sini ada 2 macam : manis dan pahit. Sebagian besar orang Medan lebih menyukai durian pahit karena rasanya lebih nimkat, legit, dan fermented. Gw lebih suka durian yang manis sih. Semua tergantung selera.
Buat yang mau bawa oleh-oleh durian ini, kamu bisa membeli duriannya di bagian belakang yang sudah ditaruh di tempat makan plastik dan di-seal rapat. Kalau mau bawa pulang ke rumah (masih di area Medan ya, bukan luar kota), kamu bisa membeli durian utuh. Setiap durian yang kita pesan untuk dimakan langsung ataupun dibawa pulang, bisa dituker dengan yang baru jika duriannya ada yang busuk. Setiap pembelian lebih dari IDR 200k, kamu bisa mendapatkan 1 buah durian gratis (ukuran kecil) untuk disantap langsung.
Ucok Durian Medan
Ayo, kalian pilih yang mana? Pas ke Medan, kamu pasti langsung kalap pengen nyoba semuanya. Namun, perlu diingat bahwa jalan di Medan macet, jadi kalian harus planning terlebih dulu.
Ini baru sebagian kuliner enak di Medan loh! Karena waktu gw yang padat, jadinya cuma sempet nyobain kuliner-kuliner ini. Kalau ada masukan tentang kuliner enak lain di Medan, silakan komen atau DM via Instagramku ya 🙂
Selamat kuliner!

Hello dessert lovers! It’s been a while since I wrote my article about “Hokkaido Baked VS Hokkaido Baby Cheese Tarts”. If you have not read that article, you can directly click HERE. Hope you guys could decide which one is the best ♥
Now, I’m eager to compare the popular cheese ice cream between Pablo’s and Ezo’s.
Coming from Osaka, Japan, Pablo Cheese Tart has gained its popularity in South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, Philippine, Singapore, and Indonesia. In Japan, the Pablo’s store in Shinsaibashi is always full of crowd from morning till noon. Good news for all people in Jakarta! You can taste the famous cheese tarts in 3 stores: Gandaria City Mall, Neo Soho Mall, and Kelapa Gading Mall (the newest store). I hope Pablo would open a store in Malaysia, since I often go to that country.
Pablo has many menus besides the cheese tart, such as Frute and Soft Cheese Ice Cream. For the ice cream, they have 2 flavors : Cheese and Matcha Cheese. I have tried both of them. The cheese flavor is quite good, milky, creamy, cheesy, and bold. The texture of the ice cream is soft, but thick. When you eat it, you can taste the boldness of the cheese, creamy, and a little bit sour left behind (aftertaste). The ice cream is also not easy to melt.
For the matcha ice cream, the cheese flavor is more dominant than the matcha taste. The matcha tasted a little bit astringent and bold. So, it can reduce the creaminess of the cheese. I like this flavor more than the original cheese flavor because I can eat one portion without feeling too much. The matcha and cheese flavor combined perfectly.
Ezo Cheesecake is come form Hokkaido, Japan. The small cheese cakes are filled with the cheese bomb on the bottom. There are many flavors for the cheese tarts, such as lemon yuzu, Nutella, Ovomaltine, Espresso, Matcha, etc. Ezo uses the ingredients imported form Japan for the baked goods. MAde form natural ingredient and baked fresh daily to bring out the best flavour available on the store shelves everyday. Now, you can visit Ezo’s store in PIK, Taman Anggrek Mall, and Kelapa Gading Mall, Jakarta.
Different from Pablo, Ezo Cheesecake has only one flavor of the ice cream. The Camembert ice cream from Ezo Cheesecake! Most of you have tried this one, I guess. The cheese tasted like immatured camembert cheese. The creamy and sour taste are left in your mouth. The ice cream is similar with Pablo’s. In terms of texture, the ice cream is also soft and thick. The taste are bold, milky, and creamy. The ice cream is filled inside the cone from top to the bottom. In affordable price, you can enjoy this tasty ice cream.
1. The Taste
We are comparing the original cheese ice cream from Pablo and the Camembert ice cream from Ezo. In terms of taste, both of them tasted like real cheese. For Ezo’s, it is more specific, which is the Camembert Cheese. As for Pablo’s, judging from the smell and taste, it is more likely Cheddar type (in my opinion). Actually, both of the are really good and have similar taste.
Winner: It is a tie.
2. The Flavor variants
In terms of flavor variants, Pablo Cheese Tart wins over Ezo Cheese Cake. Pablo has original and matcha, while Ezo has only one flavor: the original flavor.
Winner: Pablo’s ice cream
3 The Price
As for the price, Ezo’s ice cream (IDR 20k) is cheaper than Pablo’s (IDR 35k). It’s almost half of the Pablo’s price.
Winner: Ezo’s ice cream
Overall, both of them are very good. The cheese ice cream is unique and made form fresh ingredients. However, I prefer to have Ezo’s Camembert ice cream since it tasted lighter and could easily finish one portion. If you want to save more money, than choose Ezo’s ice cream. If you don’t care about the price of the food, then you can go for Pablo’s and try both flavors. It depends on your own perception. For economical reason, you can always choose the cheapier one with high quality.

Hello coffee lovers! Sudoet Tjerita has been popular on Instagram since the grand opening last month. Since I was busy, I did not have time to visit this place. Finally, today I can go to Sudoet Tjerita to spend my weekend with my friends.
The cafe is located in ‘ruko Royal Mediterania’. Precisely, it is at the opposite of Neo Soho Mall, near the escalator that connects the dining area between Central Park Mall and Neo Soho Mall.
When you enter the cafe, you will feel homey. The vintage interior is dominated with small cactus pots and an old gramophone near the cashier. At the back of the shop, there is a “greeny-spot” where they sell the cactus pots. On the left side, there is a spot where you can sit on a swing. However, the swing is just for people whose weight are under 55 kgs When I sat there, it’s fine!
.
Here are the foods and drinks we ordered.
** Note: the price is different with the menu on Pergikuliner. There are changes of the menu and the price
Kopi Rempah (38k)**
This is the signature coffee which is very popular recently. The appearance is cute, in which 2 small anistar pieces are on top of the foam. The aroma of spices is fine. Once you sip the coffee, you can taste the strong spices. Since I’m a flavorist, I could tasted that the spices are a mixture of ginger, clove, cinnamon, cardamom, and other spices (I could not tell you the whole spices since it is confidential). For me and my friends, the spices are too strong and overcome the taste of coffee.
Hot Red Velvet (37k)
Instead of red, the drink is more likely baby pink. I love the colour
The taste is good, but too sweet for me. This is my favorite drink in this place.
Iced Green Tea Latte (37k)
The green tea latte is good, but not so japanese-type. The sweetness is tolerable since there are ice cubes. Note: the caramel popcorn is not a part of the iced green tea latte.
Hot Chocolate (37k)
Tasted like milk chocolate, served warm, and the latte art is so beautiful! A peacock, I guess. For me, nothing special with this drink.
Plain Pancake (30k)
Actually there are 2 options: with ice cream or without ice cream. Since I want to do a photoshoot, then I choose the plain pancake. The presentation is so cute! It consists of 1 big round pancake, 1 medium pancake, and 2 small pancakes. Feeling like something is missing. There is no maple syrup. It is weird eating a pancake without any syrup or chocolate sauce or any other jam. I suggest to add maple syrup on a small plate.
Nougat Cake (45k)
It is a mocha-flavoured cake with nuts on top. Judging from its appearance, it is just a cake. Simple and plain. However, you must taste it. This is tasty! Me and my friends like this cake and want to add some more!
Overall, the place is so cozy and you can spend hours in it. The sunlight is perfect for food photoshoot. It is better to turn off the table lights while doing the photoshoot. For the food and drinks, they tasted quite good, but nothing so special. The “Kopi Rempah” is actually unique, but it is better to decrease the spices. The price is affordable for students as well.
Have a nice of coffee

For you who live in Kelapa Gading, there is a new cafe on Jalan Boulevard. The place is good for photoshoot since it is so instagramable. From the outside, it does not look like a coffee shop, only a big wooden door with big ‘A’ symbol on the door. When you enter the cafe, you will see the minimalistic design, simple, and cute stuff on the left side.
The cute stuffs
There are 3 floors : the 1st and 2nd are for non-smoking area, while the 3rd floor is for smoking area. The suitable time for taking pictures in this cafe is at 3 to 4 o’clock. The sunlight is just perfect at that time.

The drinks and my cute banana cakes from A&W
Raibow Pasta (65k)
The colourful pasta
Such a unique dish for me. The colourful pasta is just looked like a rainbow on my plate. There are 5 colours: red, orange, yellow, blue, and green. The pasta is served with baked-roasted pork which kinda sweet and tender. The red-orange-yellow pasta tasted sour, while the green-blue pasta is neutral. When you eat them all with the pork, you can taste the uniqueness of the dish.
Linguine Belacan (65k)
The linguine is cooked with belacan sauce and baked-roasted pork. I like this one since it is more acceptable with local taste.The aroma of belacan is not so strong, so it won’t overwhelm you.
Pan-seared Dory (72k)
Brasmati rice (yellow colored) is cooked with coconut milk, vegetables, and served with pan-seared dory. The dory is well-cooked with the seasoning and perfectly eaten with the brasmati rice. The portion is not too big, but will satiate your hungry belly.
Souffle Pancake Single (48k)
It’s not a pancake actually, but it’s just a fluffly flour cake. The cake is served with home-made ice cream : vanilla or Earl Grey. Since the Early Grey flavour is sold out, I chose the Vanilla ice cream. The presentation of the dessert is kinda cute and sweet. The cake is so-so, but the ice cream is good; thick and creamy. However, it is still too sweet for me.
In the Middle: Crouching Dragon Hidden Mango (48k)
This is my favorite! I love the colour combination between fuschia and yellow. The texture is jsut like smoothie. It tasted sweet and sour, so fresh! For me who don’t like sour, it is still acceptable. Recommended!
Iced White Coffee (38k)
I think the coffee is just fine, but not so special. I am not an expert of coffee, so I tasted just like any other coffee from another coffee shops.
Sencha Tea (35k)
It has fruity note,a little bit sour, but sweet. This is my favorite tea, so far. So fresh, although it is served in hot condition.
Overall, I like spending my time at Awesome Coffee. The foods and drinks are good, as well as the place. The ambience is good, cozy, and suitable for hangout. The price is affordable and the portion is just enough. If I have a chance to get back to this place, I want to taste another menu, especially the ice cream cone! Maybe an invitation for my birthday? =p
