Gurame Bakar Sari Kuring

I love Sundanese food, and for that I always go to Sari Kuring to have my Gurame Bakar (Grilled Gurame). Love the marinated sauce so much...

Have this with hot steamed rice, sambal terasi and kangkoong, it's the perfect combination!

Ice Cendol and Goreng-Goreng

Ok..when you are in Malacca, Malaysia, you have to go to Museum Cafe (Jonker Dessert 88) at Jonker Street and try their ice cendol and goreng-goreng. We have similar ice cendol and goreng-goreng here in Indonesia, but I have to admit..in Malacca is better! I have to fairly admit this. For you that never try ice cendol, you might be surprised with the look of it. It looks like a green worms, made from flour and pandan leaves that gives the green color, serves with red beans, shoved ice, coconut milk and palm sugar. Now..what makes it better than the ones I had in Indonesia is the palm sugar. Gula Malacca is so famous for their distinguish taste and smell.

Goreng-goreng is basically fried stuffs, like tofu and fish cake..and what makes it so special is their sauce which you used to dip in the fried stuffs. The sauce is (again) from palm sugar, peanut, chili and asam (acid), so it's a mixed of sweet, spicy and sour. Trust me, it's yummy

Fried Oyster Omelette

Another must try when you are in Malacca is fried oyster omelette at Jalan Bunga Raya. This stall has been there for more than 70 years and it's been for 3 generations of the Lim's family. It's the best fried oyster omelette I have ever had. This stall open from 7pm so plan this for your dinner!

Asam Laksa

Penang is famous with its asam laksa..and it's no kidding. I mean take a look at this...by looking at the photo, can you tell how spicy, sour and thick this is?

If you are a fan of spicy and sour food, then this is a must try. It's very..refreshing! This thick soup is a mixed of spicy, sour and yet refreshing..lots of lime indeed!

Where? Pasar Air Itam, Penang.

Seafood at Jimbaran Beach

Jimbaran Beach in Bali is famous with its seafood stalls along the beach. It's the perfect place to enjoy the sunset and fresh seafood. With so many to choose my heart goes to Manega cafe, one of the cafe that was destroyed by bomb. Wonder why this was the chosen one by the terrorist? Coz the food is good, I guess..anyway the business is back to normal and it's the place that I will always visit when I am in Bali. My choice? For certain their grilled green mussel. One portion is just not enough. Have it with rice, kangkoong and steamed rice while enjoying your sunset and listening to the live band..life is great!

Bubba Gump

Yup..it's inspired by the movie, Forrest Gump! I love this restaurant. Been to the one in Bali and Hong Kong. My favorite? A bucket of popcorn shrimp to start, and Dixie baby back pork ribs as the main course, jezz..you'll lick every bone of it.. For drinks, I like Jennie's favorite! Strawberry, Cranberry, and Raspberry frozen yogurt. Tell me, what can go wrong with that? Nothing! Absolutely nothing!

Homemade tiramisu by the Tuscan Mammas

The best tiramisu I have ever had by far! It's homemade by the Tuscan Mammas. Do you know that tiramisu means pick me up? Metaphorically make me happy. Indeed this cake will make you happy! The secret of this cake is great espresso and cocoa, it just ..melted in my mouth. One of the great food experience I had!

Crisp Pancake with coconut sauce

This is what I will look for when I visit Bangkok, Thailand. You will see these crisp pancake with coconut sauce as one of the popular street food in Thailand. I had these at the floating market just outside Bangkok. It's a delicious treat to my sweet tooth!

Crab stuffed jumbo prawns at Boat House

OK...another restaurant in Vancouver that worth the visit is Boat House. I had this crab stuffed jumbo prawns at Boat House.I can taste the cream cheese and garlic mixed wonderfully with the crab meat and prawns. Gosh! The combination of flavor is just pure...heaven!! A must try! Highly recommended!

White Spot Burger, Canada

The one restaurant that I will always visit when I am in Vancouver is White Spot. Their legendary burger with the Triple O sauce will really give you "Food O" I even like the pickle!!

O yes..I had food orgasm in this restaurant! And that's why I keep coming back for more!

Swedish meatball with lingonberry jam and mash potatoes

Ask me what else I love about Ikea besides their furniture and the answer would be that on the title.

Whenever I go to a foreign country with Ikea, I will definitely pay a visit and have their Swedish meatballs. And yes..I will have the biggest portion which contains 15 meatballs!!

Garlic King Prawn La Na Thai

These prawns had made me go..O My God! If you love garlic and prawn, then you should try this. I had 2 portion of these (honestly) and it's heaven! The tender and juicy prawn with crisp fried garlic is just to die for! Love the ambiance of the restaurant too!

Where? La Na Thai, Jl. Kusumaatmaja no. 85, Menteng, Jakarta.

Cheese coupe ice cream

For me, this is the best ice cream and my very favorite! It's fantastic! Three scoops of cheese ice cream with biscuit crumbles and strawberry sauce. It's heaven! The combination of flavor is jut perfect! Whatever goes wrong in your life, every spoonful of this will just ease that bit by bit, it's a bliss!

Where? Bakerzin

Bebek Goreng Kaleyo (Kaleyo Fried Duck)

My friend Farida told me about this place, she said "The green chili is super hot, it's like a firework in my mouth" As someone who love food, moreover spicy food, I have been nagging her to take me there. So, one fine evening after work, we drove for like one and a half hour to get to this place in East Jakarta. It's a modest place, but crowded with people.

I ordered the famous fried duck with green chili along with nasi uduk (rice steamed with coconut milk). It's good. It's actually really good. The skin of the duck is crisp, but the meat is juicy, and the green chili is indeed hot, not the hottest chili I have ever had but it had successfully burned my mouth and water started coming from my nose.

Recommended place! Price is very reasonable and tasty!
