sunter – MY CULINARY DIARY

Hello food lovers! After renovation, Elmakko has expanded the cafe into bigger space, consists of 3 areas: The Cafe, The Play Room, and The Private Cafe area (not a private one but the space is smaller and suitable for a group discussion).

For you who like to play Nintendo, this cafe has Nintendo Snes that you can play with your friends (only 2 persons). You can play as long as you want if you buy the foods and drinks.

The place is not too big, but homey and super cozy in the afternoon. At the evening, the cafe is usually full capacity and too crowded. I suggest you to come in the morning or afternoon before 6 pm to enjoy the game and the foods.

For the design, it’s simple, white-dominant, minimalist, and of course, it’s a good place for food photography! The decoration is cute where the toys are placed in a small shelf in the cafe near the cashier. I spend hours in this cafe with my friends, playing and eating and drinking

FOOD & DRINKS

Makko Fries (25k)

This is for snack or appetizer. The mexican spices blend well with the french fries. It’s super tasty! The fries are crispy and soft. The seasoning is soooo good! Must try!

Makko Pop Chicken (Regular: 30k; Party size: 50k)

The deep fried chicken pieces are small-bite size and served with the mayo sauce. It’s tasty and suitable for snacking while palying Nintendo.

Chicken Fajitas Rice (35k)

Recommended! The butter rice is super tasty. The chicken is grilled with the mexican spice. The portion is quite small, but I love the rice

Chicken Salted Egg (35k)

This is also good. The salted egg is tasty, salty, and bold. This is also good for you who like salted egg.

Makko Chicken Rice (35k)

The chicken katsu and rice are quite few. Looks like it’s small, but actually it can fulfill your hunger. I like the crispness of the chicken katsu. Yummy!

Glazed Chicken with Melted Cheese (NEW)

The chicken pieces are quite few and served with mayo and melted cheese on top of them. Tasty! I like this chicken pieces more than any other menu.

Red Velvet Latte (30k)

This is my recommendation! I really like the taste of bold taste of dark chocolate with the red velvet flavor. It’s not as sweet as any other latte in other coffee shops. Must try!

Cappucino (25k)

I am not a fan of coffee, but the cappucino is quite good with the a hint of milky-creamy taste from the creamer and milk.

Overall, I like the food and the red velvet latte in this cafe. The place is cozy and quite interesting for me since I have not been to a cafe with Nintendo. The price is standard like any other coffee shops. The service is quite good.
Happy eating!

Hello foodies! Recently, I passed this cafe when I visited my friend’s house in Sunter. I remembered Lapis Lapis cake shop at Mal Kelapa Gading and I thought it was the same cake shop with the one in Sunter. I gathered some information from Zomato, knowing it was both cake shop and cafe. So, I just came by to see what is inside that two-story cafe.

The cake shop was on the 1st floor and the cafe was on the 2nd floor. On 1st floor there were indoor area and small outdoor area where they also sell Lapis Cake at 1st floor.

The 2nd floor was same like the 1st floor, but it’s a little bit bigger than the 1st floor. When you visit this place, I suggest you to sit at 2nd floor. The nice modern wooden facade on the 2nd floor reminds me of a cozy coffee place in South Jakarta.

2nd Floor Indoor

I also love the interior of the outdoor at the balcony and the place was quiet instagrammable. No wonder this place is often used for birthday celebration and bridal shower. The indoor area was quiet dark even in the afternoon. The place was not crowded and calm. I think I’m gonna like this place ♥

The price of the food and drinks were quiet affordable as compared to any other cafes around Sunter and Kelapa Gading. The portion was big enough to get your stomach full. We ordered both Asian and Western Menus.

My Lunch

Chicken cordon bleu was chosen for my main menu since I want to try their Western Menu. The battered chicken filled with beef ham and melted cheese. The size was half of the plate (quiet big for myself to finish it all)! The fettucini could be exchanged with french fries. The cream was poured on the chicken and fettucini. The overall taste was so-so, but I like the fettucini in my cordon bleu. What I like was the cream was not as thick as any other cream and not so creamy. Maybe some of you prefer to eat thicker cream.

Chicken Cordon Bleu (60k)

Hainan Chicken Rice was quiet good although it was not as authentic as the one I usually eat. The rice was cooked with chicken stock. The chicken pieces was big! The soup was too salty for me, though. The garlic and ginger taste were not to strong. For me, the taste was so-so, despite of its big portion.

I also order one small portion of Captain Crunch Sushi. All kinds of sushi in Lapis Lapis are in 2 portions: small and large. The sushi consisted of salom, cream cheese, asparagus crabstick, and seaweed. There was no rice in the sushi. The salmon was sushi was fried, so that the outer past was so crunchy. The inside part was soft and the salmon was not fishy at all ♥ The taste of Captain Crunch was quiet good. One portion equals to 5 pieces of sushi.

Captain Crunch Small (40k)

For the drink, I tried Lychee Twist Organic Tea (green tea-based). The taste was sweet enough even sugarless. The aroma of fresh lychee made me enjoy my lunch. Recommended for you who like fruity-aroma tea.

Overall, I enjoyed my time in Lapis Lapis The Kitchen. The place was so cozy, not crowded, and calm. The food was quiet good with big portion. Affordable price with big portion. I recommend the place either for a casual lunch, dinner, or for a coffee break. I think the place is good for dating ♥ Happy Weekend!
