Monologue

Gosh, the weather is scorching back and forth for these few days. I have been missing my classes for 1 week, not because it was holiday, but I 'holiday-ed' myself. BIG LOL :p
Reason behind that is because there was a huge chaos nearby my university, due to the rapid increase on the gasolines. Well, the mass is looking forward for a decrease or remaining the same for the price of it.
Kinda scary huh? well, don't wanna talk about it for too much!

Today's restaurant that has the chance to be reviewed is Monologue. hmm. some of u might not be too familiar with this resto, perhaps, as it is located at the Parking Lot at Plaza Senayan. O;

First of all, so sorry that the pictures taken didn't reach the maximum level of brightness. forgot to bring my DSLR on that day T_T

chicken confeitte

beef brisket (tastes almost like Rendang)

this black burger does not exist! I edited it to give some kind of unique desire and fascination

;)

below, is the real chicken burger. loving the wedgie!

here comes the desert! this is monologue breakfast menu for Fruit French Toast. loving the fruits, but not really like the toast itself. it's too soft and too egg-y. 

i forgot this danish's name. either egg danish, cheese danish, or cream puff danish

finally, our Fresh Milk! this cup of fresh milk is kinda PRICE-Y! around Rp. 25k / cup. well, my best advice is, you can make this your own in house. click for the previous post to know how to do it ;)

Monologue is opened specially for breakfast. however, you may have your dinner or lunch menu during the breakfast time. they have various menus to be served. the place is not that comfy, because it is located in the basement ( note: parking lot) and deliberately very hot for me. the seats and tables are not organized very neatly that makes the place looks kinda small.

Well, it is a good place to have breakfast or having not-too-long meals with friends after works/classes.

Marche

Bonjour blogger! How was your long weekend? Spent anytime overseas or just hanging around Jakarta areas? Well, I was avoiding any public places this week, due to its crowded-ness (but, went to Empo mall for having dinner few hours ago haha *cliche*).

Today is a special day, for my friend, Thomas Mensink, from Netherlands. Happy birthday blonde boy! Hope you have a blast :* kusjee.

This short post is about Marche, that I visited few months ago or I think last year, but just have the time to post it now. 

I love the pizza ! the cheese really blends in every bite ;) a perfect starter.

like this roasted chicken. not too much and not too fattening as well.

Sorry for the lack of posts these few moments, still having my studies and mid-exam is indeed around the corner.. perhaps, I will post something new after my mid, :)

This is really a short post, but hope you guys enjoy it.

have a few tips for this week:

" drink lots of water, cause the weather seems so peculiar nowadays! sometimes hot, sometimes rainy "

Location: Marche, Plaza Senayan (they have other outlets as well, in Grand Indonesia)

Rate: rating is vary, but for both dishes are 7.5/10

Mad For Garlic ?

 " Mad for Garlic presents more than 40 kinds of Garlic based menus and a wide selection of premium wines "


for any garlic-holic, you might probably have known about this restaurant. YES, its specialty is on any Garlic menus, especially the Garlic fried rice ( i forgot the official title for that menu) and it tastes so GARLIC. sorry for kept on repeating that GARLIC words.

I ain't the ambassador for this brand ! haha. that was me holding the menu pamphlet.
i know i looked quite chubby out there (taken fewwwww months ago) but now already lose some weights! yay

 Garlic salads! love the garlic and dried chilis. but say no to the salad.

 risotto. oh well, i am not a risotto lover. but this is pretty acceptable for my tongue

 garlic fried rice mentioned above. my fave!! but this is damnnnn super damn damnn damn expensive. the taste.. errrr kinda of worth the price, but u spend 100k for fried rice? put your hands up dear!

 pizzaaaaa. all types of pizza have never failed me. this includes my list.

idk the name, but if i am not mistaken, it's a bolognese spaghetti. (contains pork)

MFG,  for short, has a nice place for its customers to have dinners or lunches. however, in my opinion, they should reduce a little bit of their prices, cause everything inside is so price-y.
but, for those who love garlics, u better try this anti-vampire dishessss. hahaa * so lucky that i am human, not a vampire *  well you get what I mean right? oh you don't? oh okey. haha.


didn't try its wine, cause i am not the type who drinks, so mineral water or lychee ice tea will always be on my order list.

P.S: bring some cash or credit cards sometimes they may give u some promos on the card

At the backyard beach

First of all I wanna say, HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WOMEN's DAY. I specially dedicated this day to respect all the women, especially mothers who have been our QUEENS and PROTECTORS on the first second of our life.

As promised (before), I am going to post about something beach-y (umm, don't pronounce it wrongly).
piles of assignments are "patiently" waiting for me to do them, which in fact, i am not in the mood of doing any of them. So, without further delay, let's start with our beach-y post!

Oh before that ! I wanna thank you my buddy, Bryan Andrean Putra, from coffeecreamandthecaffeine blogger, for helping me out of snapping every picts and bits. Eventually, he used his camera and borrowed my memory card, so all these picts are credit for him ;)

Photographer as well as my buddy.. thanks for all the shors ;)

calamari rings

cheese fondue wedges (highly recommended)

Mie Gele

Fried Sakaw Noodle (recommended)

the whole buddies :)

hmm. i know this is kinda a weird pose. haha, but don't get me wrong, i am not the spokeperson for canon, nor a promoter. but ... i love canon the best :) for every outdoor, indoor, and macro angle.

I invited my campus friends to Dermaga Cafe, in Pantai Mutiara, to celebrate my second birthday party bash. it is actually a simple gathering but it was really meaningful for me. :) 

I love the scenery here, with all the view of beach and private yachts of the houses' owners around there, and the place is indeed very beautiful... 

You dont need to dress up any fancy clothes, just take yourself as if you are eating at seaside ...

It is kinda packed of in the weekends, especially dinner time, and don't forget to try its special menu, MIE SAKAW, which is highly recommended !! 

I was wearing:

Unbranded shirts in beige

Pull n Bear Short pants

Toywatch watch

Salvatore Double Tour Bracelet

Salvatore Varina Flats in Mint

20th

I titled this post "20th" cause it represents my 20th life few weeks ago in February. I have a fab 20 that I have spent with some of my friends and I have to cherish every moment that I encountered with them.

However, 20 is not scary after all, well, it is a stage in where you have to be more responsible and matured in every condition that we face. Besides, I have lots of people who love me and adore me for who I am, not for what I am :) hope you enjoy my fab 20 post 

I chose Kitchenette as my bday venue, because I love the food out there and it is a great place to hang out with friends. Also, I like the crepes that it serves..

 craving for this crepes while writing this post. DROOLS!

Mother of all gossips, Madame Tje Fuk :p

my fav item and gift. thank you :* 

Most of you might have heard Kitchenette before. Yes, the one which is beside Bakerzin, Plaza Indonesia. As you can see, that resto is always full booked, even during the weekdays. I needed to take reservations few days prior before my bday blast. The food is not too expensive and yet worth the price as well ...

Dress up not too formal and yet well-dressed is recommended... especially in the weekends
