Explore Jakarta: Cafes and Places

Happy new year 2015!

Hey guys! Happy new year 2015! So how do you spend the start of this new year? As you know, lots of people is now travelling out of Jakarta so it’s basically trafic-free. Cause one of my agenda in this holiday is tasting food at the currently trending cafes, I decided to stop by 3 cafes with my friends Dara and Elke. Suprisingly it only took about an hour to reach this places, usually I spend more than 2 hours (duh cause I live in Cibubur).

So our first destination is *drum roll please* Tredici Ristorante located in Senopati. It serves Italian food and has a nice ambience especially in the outdoor area where walls are decorated with plants. I tried Gnocchi Valle D’aosta for Rp 92.000 and it was quite nice (maybe cause I’m hungry).  You could change the ham with beef by request. The service here is also fast and what I really like is that they give us a welcome bread (a blessing if you arive hungry).

Next stop is… Dia.lo.gue Artspace located in Kemang that is known for its famous edgy stairs. This place has modern design with some unique art pieces, suitable for people who likes to take pictures. But its a shame that the service doesn’t meet up with the comfy ambiance. Why? Cause the lack of employees. But luckily I didn’t order any food here (I know I’m supposed to order but I only want to take pictures here hihi).

Last but not least, Hyde Kemang. This is my favorite place compared to the other two. I really love the different ambience that we get in different rooms but its all comfy. I ordered the famous chocolate soil for the price of rp 55.000 and it tasted devine. The unique approace of having it displayed like a flower pot with the soil and worms is quite disgusting at first, but when you dig in we could taste the richness of the different textures of chocolate. I would definitely go back here.
