WOOT COFFEE & MATES

Wohoooo....HELLO again, Wednesday! Yeayyy..another favorite day in a week!;) Hampir kehabisan ide buat jalan2, tapi gak sengaja lagi lihat IG ternyata ketemu satu lagi new comer coffee shop in Senopati since last December 2014, 'WOOT Coffee & Mates', hmmmm....and i was so curious!

Akhirnya Rabu siang lalu saya dan Olive meluncurlah ke area Senopati. Grrrr...siang itu ternyata jalan lewat tol cukup salah karena ternyata macettt juga -_-! Sampai di area Senopati, kita akhirnya late lunch di 'Pondok Begor Pak Suryo.'  Makan siang selesai jam 2.30 pm, yuhuu...it's the right time for having a cup of coffee!;)

'WOOT Coffee & Mates' sangat mudah dijangkau, hanya dari KFC Gunawarman belok kanan saja, lalu lurus sedikit ada di sisi kanan jalan tepat bersebelahan juga dengan 'PRODIA.' Kalian juga akan mudah ketemu setelah lihat 'Martabak Boss' yang eyecatching banget dengan dominan warna kuningnya itu.:)


Second Floor

Sampai di 'WOOT kita langsung bisa order dulu di lantai 1, but unfortunately, they don't have many variants of desserts or snacks except their mini pie. Akhirnya saya hanya memesan coffee saja sore itu walaupun agak tergoda juga sama 'Martabak Boss' di depan.lol Saya naik ke lantai 2 yang terbilang cukup luas juga, there's a smoking & non smoking area. Karena suka banget sama design & ambience 'WOOT' , akhirnya saya gak bisa menikmati hot coffee tadi karena lebih tergoda buat memotret dulu.:p It's such a nice cozy coffee shop!Nice design interior! Look at this eyecatching yellow color mixed with grey.

Sunny Wednesday

Vintage Stuff

Totally in love with the mix of colors

Take little time to smell the coffee :)

Hot Flat White & Hot Cappuccino    IDR Total 65.000,- 

'WOOT Coffee & Mates' menggunakan Malabar coffee bean.  Hot coffee served with Martabak Tipker tapi untuk rasa Hot Cappuccino menurut saya too much milk jadi agak mirip Flat White. 

Let me introduce...my only one sister, Olive!:)

Hot Cappuccino x Martabak 

There's always a day for sissy time

'WEFIE' never wrong. lol

I hope they open earlier than 12.00 o'clock & they'll serve a breakfast & brunch menu also. :) Surely come back again at this cozy coffee shop. Next time 'Martabak Boss' should be on my list!;) Until 'SEE YOU LATTE' (quotes by 'WOOT').

LETTER D - BY CHEF DEGAN

Selesai dari 'H Gourmet & Vibes' sudah jam 03.00 pm and as we know it's just a right time to grab cuppa good coffee!;) Akhirnya saya dan bf memutuskan untuk misa jam 5 sore di sekitar Kebayoran. Tujuan yang paling pas seperti biasa di '115 Coffee' karena memang sudah cukup dekat dengan lokasi Gereja St. Yohanes Penginjil, Blok B. Sambil lewat ternyata ada tempat baru yang eyecatching juga. Mampirlah saya di 'LETTER D', tempat ini memang baru Soft Opening sejak 9 Januari 2015 lalu. 'LETTER D' terdiri dari dua lantai, kebetulan saya tidak sempat explore di lantai 2 karena memang lagi ada gathering juga di atas. Interior design-nya menarik dengan table setting with casual fine dining style dan saya memang selalu suka dengan konsep ruangan yang terang dan banyak jendela kaca jadi kita juga bisa memotret dengan hasil yang bagus kan!:)

'LETTER D' by the Chef Degan MasterChef Indonesia. Sebelum mendirikan 'LETTER D' sebelumnya Chef Degan juga sudah merintis 'Cafe Degan' in Seminyak, Bali that served Authentic Indonesian & Thai Cuisine & Pastry Shop

H GOURMET & VIBES

Unplanned brunch with my cousins on last Sunday!:D Minggu lalu saya berlima coba mampir di H Gourmet & Vibesnew comer in Gunawarman!:) As we know, almost once a month there's always a new place to visit in Senopati. Lokasinya sangat mudah dijangkau karena masih sederetan dengan Holy Crab, Gunawarman.

Waktu tiba di sana, sempat agak bingung karena di lantai dasar memang still under construction. Ternyata H memang berada di lantai 3 dan sudah buka sejak akhir Desember 2014. Yes...my first stepped into H, i'm totally in LOVE with this NYC 70's atmosphere with industrial concept!;) Fortunately, walaupun lagi full house & tanpa reservasi dulu, akhirnya kita langsung dapet table juga. H served Southern American Food & NYC styled cocktails, akhirnya kita memesan juga Jerky Chicks, yuppp..one of the 'hip' menu at H dan beberapa menu lainnya. 

 One Fine Sunny Sunday




Cool Industrial Concept

House Lychee Tea IDR 25.000,-

Our Dining Table Area

Jerky Chicks IDR 85.000,-

Perfectly cooked Jamaican dish that called 'JERKY CHICKS', this one served with sweet potato fries that I called 'UBI'.lol  Love its balance flavor & smokey aroma.  Highly recommended to try, guys!:)

Philly Cheese IDR 85.000,-

Vintage Stuff Never Fail 

Cousins day out 

Overall, this cool 'H GOURMET & VIBES' should be on your weekend list for lunch, dinner, or just relaxing your day by drinking NYC styled cocktails ;)

CROSSCORE - ROTATIONAL BODYWEIGHT TRAINING

Today, i'd like to introduce about CrossCore® which's  a new sport at Body Connection Pilates that have been launched since last August 2014. There's so much fun & challenging to learn CrossCore® movements because we need to keep our body balance by using our core muscle.

CrossCore® was introduced to the fitness market in 2010 with its War Machine product and then launched the CrossCore180® in 2011.CrossCore® is a suspended bodyweight training system that engages the entire body with highly effective functional training techniques and programs with Rotational Bodyweight Training.

Rotational Bodyweight Training will help us to learn how to progress ourselves and our exercises by using proper movement pattern along with rotational and anti-rotational stability techniques.

CrossCore® is also the only suspended bodyweight training system that allows you to use a variety of accessories for integrated workouts, such as kettlebells, dumbbells, sand bags, bars and resistance bands.

CrossCore® was introduced soon thereafter to cater to a much more diverse population—fitness enthusiasts, amateur and professional athletes, the military, the aging population and people with disabilities—to safely challenge them and actively grow their fitness goals.

These below are some photos of CrossCore® movements. Here we go....:)

AVEC MOI RESTAURANT - CASUAL FRENCH DINING

Minggu siang lalu akhirnya saya coba lunch at Avec Moi (means: with me) which served French fusion dishes with reasonable price, as we know that French Restaurant usually over priced. :p

Lokasinya sendiri sangat mudah dijangkau yaitu di kawasan Office Park Thamrin City, sederetan dengan Tanamera Coffee. Tiba disitu jam 01.00 pm dan ternyata masih full tapi sebelumnya saya sudah reservation. Tempatnya hanya di satu ruko saja dengan tiga tingkat. Dining room ada di lantai 1 dan 2. Avec Moi had a limited space with warm ambience & cute bunny themed inspired. :) 

Now, let's move to the food. Setelah baca beberapa review dari food blogger sebelumnya, akhirnya saya coba memesan their signature Salade Avec Moi, Prawn Pasta, Bacon Carbonara, Fresh Strawberry, and Lychee Ice Tea. Saladnya disajikan duluan tapi sambil menunggu main course yang terlalu lama keluarnya menurut saya karena saat itu saya harus tunggu sampai kurang lebih 35 menit. :( 

First floor dining area

Salade Avec Moi IDR 65.000,-
DELISH signature salad!! Love the sesame dressing...:)

Prawn Pasta IDR 88.000,-
Fresh Strawberry IDR 35.000,-
Lychee Ice Tea IDR 30.000,-

Bacon Carbonara IDR 82.000,-
Different style with the other carbonara because the chef doesn't put much creamy sauce but topped with half boiled egg. 

First floor & cute bunny chair 

GOOD JOB Chef Romano! Surely comeback next time, i'm still curious with your signature dessert!;) 

PS : BE NOTED for their opening hours,guys!

GONI COFFEE - HIDDEN TINY COFFEE SHOP IN KEMANG



Minggu sore kemarin setelah dari Lottemart La Codefin Kemang, finally our next stop's 'Goni Coffee'. Memang sudah cukup penasaran dengan new comer ini yang baru berdiri dari November 2014 yang lalu. Tempatnya sangat mudah dijangkau karena letaknya sejalan menuju Hero Kemang dan tepat di seberangnya adalah Bajaj Station. lol....

Yup...tiny coffee shop! Fortunately, hanya ada 2 visitor saat itu jadi gak perlu pakai waiting list dan sempat juga ngobrol sebentar dengan salah satu owner dari 'Goni Coffee' yaitu Mr. Argam, dia cerita kalau sebelumnya dulu sempat di 'Crematology' juga sebelum akhirnya memutuskan buka coffee shop sendiri. Untuk coffee bean 'Goni Coffee' menggunakan dari Bali Kintamani. 

'Keep Calm & Drink Coffee '

Hot Cappuccino IDR 30.000,-
Hot Latte IDR 25.000,-



Brownie Waffle w/Vanilla Ice Cream

Rasa Brownie Waffle-nya cukup pas manisnya untuk saya tapi sayang untuk teksturnya terlalu keras menurut saya jadi agak kesulitan ketika dipotong jadi harus tunggu ice cream-nya melting dulu supaya tekstur waffle lebih lunak. 

Overall...'Goni Coffee' should be noted on your weekend list! Tiny coffee shop with good coffee & service! Definitely comeback to fill my card with stamps for my next free coffee!;)

CHEF'S BAKERY & CAFE

Sabtu sore ini rencananya misa di Gereja Santa Perawan Maria, Senopati. Seperti biasa, kalau sudah lewatin Senopati kayaknya memang wajib ya mampir dulu ^-^ tapi karena waktu yang agak mepet tinggal sejem lagi, akhirnya saya & BF pilih coffee shop-lah yang paling pas. 

Tadinya destination kita mau ke 'Crematology' secara paling pas udah deket banget. Tapi karena overload parking area-nya akhirnya pindah tujuanlah ke Chef's Bakery di area Monginsidi. Actually...yesterday was my second visit. :) Di lantai bawah khusus bakery sama seperti yang di GI setahu saya. Lalu ke lt.2 ada coffee shop...cozy ambience but i don't like with their Korean song. Maybe i'm not a BIG fan of Korean..:p But fortunately, my second visit was accompanied by chillout western songs!:D

Sebenernya saya prefer Hot Latte tapi karena di sini Latte yang disajikan bentuk Irish Latte, so I prefer to order Hot Cappucinno. Their coffee is good enough in big cup but I prefer Hot Cappuccino that served in a smaller cup..:D Selain itu di sini juga dapat complimentary cookies yah! 

Note: They only gave us free plain water as per our request.  

So...cheers to a good weekend ahead by having Hot Cappuccino & cute cookies! XOXO ;)
