Been a long time that I haven’t written this culinary stuff. Okay, let us drop our attention to sort of delicious noodle, people call it Mie Kesatuan. Ouch, yummy!! It’s very famed in Bogor, especially in Chinese people realm. No pork, so it is rightful for certain people, even the sellers are non-Chinese. ;)

If you want to get it, then you should wake up earlier in the morning, maybe around 6 – 9 AM. There are two reasons why they hawk the noodles in the morning. First, it is because they just want to peddle it in the morning to set aside breakfast choice for Bogor people. LOL. Second, actually they want to sell it until noon comes by, but they have so many followers who adore their noodles! Noon comes, noodles have run out!

Go after it, guys! 8 thousands Rupiah can save you from damagely hunger!

Ayam Geprek Istimewa

2009-04-08T07:25:00.000-07:00

People have recommended this place to me. Well, the taste is so-so, just like everybody’s ayam geprek. My boyfriend and I had tried Ayam Geprek and Ayam Bakar. Like I have said, the taste is not impressed me nor is my boyfriend because too many grease and it made us nauseated. Well, the good point, the price is affordable. It is only about 2 – 15 thousands Rupiah, both for foods and drinks.

I got to make a note for you all. This place is not clean for a food place because when my boyfriend and I had dinner, there was huge rat or Indonesians usually call it as tikus got going around in panic. We lost our appetite. Sorry.

We had tried Ayam Geprek Istimewa at Jl.Bangbarung Raya, maybe another kiosk could serve you with a better taste and place.

Nasi Goreng Ojolali

2009-02-23T05:11:00.000-08:00

Last week, one of my best friend named Oyé asked me if I wanted to join with him for dinner at Nasi Goreng Ojolali which is at Suryakencana Street, the China Town of Bogor. We ordered Nasi Goreng Jawa (7 thousands Rupiah per portion) and Chicken Satay (1 thousand Rupiah per stick), but another friend of mine gives a special term for this fried rice with Nasi Goreng Ruwet (Knotty Fried Rice) because this kind of fried rice is rather unique, the seller mixes the rice and the noodle into one plate. We can ask the addition tastes, like pedes-manis (spicy sweet), and pedes (spicy). Nasi Goreng Ruwet consists of noodle, rice, chicken, vegetables, and krupuk (sort of traditional crackers). You can add omelette only 2 thousands Rupiah. I recommend you to taste Nasi Goreng Jawa pedes-manis. It tastes good, definitely with chicken satay bean sauce. Four thumbs up, include my feet, huh!

Mie Sahabat / Yun Sin

2009-02-17T04:13:00.001-08:00

Dear food lovers, do you have an old memory of childhood provisions place? Wherever you are, you will always miss those tastes. Decide to come back to the old town you have grown up just for the God’s sake tasting the tempting taste. There's agitation in my stomach in feeling the vague aromas.

Last Sunday, there was a sturdy longing to have a lunch at Mie Yun Sin, the famed noodles family restaurant in Bogor. Startlingly, there were several provisions places that I have reviewed so far but Mie Yun Sin. I just asked to myself, “How could it be?”, Still feel amused. Well, let us start it.

Mie Yun Sin is located in central Bogor, specifically at Jalan Sudirman, the one of main roads in this lovely town. Yes, it is typically Chinese family restaurant as I see, but they also well-known with its Indonesian name, Mie Sahabat. ;) To make you feel easier to get this restaurant, you can reach it across of Dunkin Donuts platform, near Regina Pacis Catholic School. They spoil you with all sorts of mie (noodles), bihun (meehun), kuetiaw, bakso (meatballs), babat, and pangsit (dumplings, kind of wonton or ravioli). You can order it in one bowl yet it means one portion or half portion. The price range is between 11 – 26.5 thousands Rupiah for the fully equipped portion (one bowl price) and the price range for half portion is between 6 – 14.5 thousands Rupiah. Both price ranges are prevailed for noodles, bihun, kuetiauw, and so forth.

For the drinks, the provide you with kind of special drinks, like Es Campur, Es Teler, Es Cendol Hijau, and Es Cendol Ceria with the price range between 9 – 10 thousands Rupiah. If you want something that can boost your spirit up, you can try the freshness of Ice Lemon Tea, Lemon Squash, Orange, Coconut, Passion Fruit, Syrup, Aloevera with the price range between 4 – 12 thousands Rupiah, also kind of juices, tea, coffee, milk, and soft drink. Overall, the prices are 1- 9 thousands Rupiah in the meanwhile.

The Pangsit Goreng is crispy, but the sauce is quite sour. The noodles is fair albeit it is a little flabby or mushy. Well then, actually I have to give my applause for the sambal or sauce or whatever the suitable right term for it. IT gives a very pleasant-deliciously addition taste for the noodles. Yes, the sambal is very berry delicious yet spicy.

Selamat Makan!

Yes, finally I found the kampung taste from Cireng Isi at Regina Pacis Bogor. Yippie. It’s a new comer at Jajanan Regina Pacis, so I had to try it.

Met Liefde is one among other cafes that I want to visit since long time ago. Ik ga naar de cafe om lekker te eten en om mijn vriend te ontmoeten. It's a simple cafe with unique old Netherlands architecture and it feels homey. For the first impression, you may say that Met Liefde is very small, shady yet gloomy. When you enter the cafe, it's very huge and the ceilings are so high. The old house stretch along a length until the backyard. Ah, what a chilly place to share. =)

Last Saturday, I was so lucky having a special chance to taste it with my friend. Liefde reminisces us with old milieu of Dutch in 30's with its romantic and antique ambiences. Met Liefde is one of the cozy cafe in Bogor which take us piercing through time, back to the old mixed of Indonesian-Dutch nostalgia while enjoying specialty cuisines from The Netherlands.

They serve us with Indonesian, European, and Dutch cuisines such as buffet, ice cream, lasagna, pizza, salad, steak, burger and hotdog. The price range is 50 – 100 thousands Rupiah with 200 seating capacity. You can pay it with cash, BCA Card, Visa, and Master Card.

Honestly, I want to share to all of you about my childhood foods. It's fried foods also known as gorengan. They lie down in the seam of Jalan Perdana Raya, the main street at Komplek Perumahan Budi Agung. Well, we can't say it as my childhood foods because it's still drop in for a while in my brain folder as my favorite foods so far. When I was a sinless little girl, I call it as “Gorengan Jam 3” because it opened almost three pm. Since three something years ago, It opens at 12 o'clock in daylight until now. Do I have to change its name? Heck no, I am getting used to with the “Gorengan Jam 3” name. =) It's just like any kind of fried foods.

Formerly like eight teen years ago, they just served us with tahu goreng, pisang goreng, tempe goreng and buras when its price, fifty cents Rupiah each. As time goes by, there are loads of innovations. Several years ago, pisang molen was a trend in a tukang gorengan realm. So, they serve us with pisang molen which is the bestest pisang molen so far in my tongue. Years were coming ahead, they serve us with bakwan. Goddam tasty yet crispy yet dunny. =)) For now, you can get it with 5 hundreds Rupiah each. Go Go! Rengan!

As usual, I was three fourth hungry because I already had my breakfast, but it's okay. He said that they have delicious nasi tim (steam rice). Wow, curious yet excited, I passed through into the Happy.

He ordered two steam rices for us. It has a huge portion just for 10.5 thousands Rupiah per portion. The steam rice is very moist, perfect taste. Not as usual, they serve the steam rice with a half boiled egg. I am really surfeiting. It's vehemently tasteful, the mixed of mushrooms, chickens, and its special spices give you the addiction and you deserve to taste it. Free hot tea, guys! Thanks again to Aditya Ekaputra for letting me tasted this extraordinary steam rice. He really a food lover.

Cireng Keraton

2009-01-01T06:38:00.000-08:00

Since a year ago, I was looking for Cireng Bandung. Actually, cireng is a traditional snack from Sundanese folks. This snack is made from cassava flour, so it has a special taste and usually oncom or beans are filled in cireng. As time goes by, the taste must be recreated, so it has various tastes that could spoil your tongue. It's only one thousand Rupiah to get one piece. That was the price when I was in Bandung. Unfortunately, I didn't take a picture when I was in Bandung. So, when I was on a little sightseeing in Botani Square, there is a booth called Cireng Keraton. I thought its taste would be delicious as the original ones in Bandung. I try it with 3 thousands Rupiah per piece. There are 10 tastes, they are sosis pedas, kedap (keju daging asap), ayam pedas, sapi pedas, oncom pedas, baso pedas, pizza, keju, ayam teriyaki, and barbeque. Well, I tasted sosis pedas and kedap. I don't like sosis pedas because the sauce has a strange taste, too sting for me but kedap is a so-so. It's all about my opinion, but you should try though to taste it by yourself. Different person, different opinion. Enough for today's folks. Happy trying.

Bubur 88 Palmerah

2009-01-01T06:33:00.001-08:00

Once I went to Palmerah, West Jakarta to visit one of my relative, named Eliana. She has been selling chicken porridge for almost 10 years. I was little curious about the taste because the chicken porridge is a breakfast-everywhere-you-can-get-it and I was afraid that the taste is so goddam so-so. I was wrong then, it's very delicious and she definitely can mix the taste proportionally without making us nauseated. Its name Bubur 88 Palmerah, you just grope after 15 thousands Rupiah for a portion. But, if you have little ienieminnie stomach, you can order it in a half portion, 8 thousands Rupiah. Enjoy!

Ragusa, The Italian Ice Cream

2008-12-28T05:40:00.000-08:00

For almost couple of month people talking about Ragusa the Italian Ice Cream, finally I went there to taste it. Common say that Ragusa Italian Ice Cream is the oldest ice cream parlor in Jakarta. But, it’s proven by the architecture and the old count machine. There are two different kind of dishes offered to guests, ice creams and beverages. For ice cream, we can choose regular flavored (mocca, vanilla, chocolate, strawberry, nougat) for only 12 – 14 thousands Rupiah. Premium flavored (durian and rum raisin), priced 15 thousands Rupiah, mixed flavored (coupe de maison and special mix), priced 16 - 18 thousands Rupiah and finally the fancy flavored (chocolate sundae, tutti frutti, cassata sicilliana, banana split, spaghetti ice cream), priced 18 – 27 thousands Rupiah.

For the beverages, there are es kelapa muda, lemon ice tea, orange juice, aqua (glass and bottle), the sosro, soft drink, lemon squash, lemon squash soda, ice cream soda (vanilla, chocolate, strawberry), and cola float. All the beverages are in 8 – 19 thousands Rupiah range.

They serve just for the light dishes like ice cream and beverages, no hard dishes like rice kinda stuff. In front of the ice cream parlor, there is hard dish like chicken satay (18 thousands Rupiah) and snacks like kue cubit, kue ape, otak-otak, etcs with different owners. But, Ragusa allows us to eat the front dishes inside the parlor.

Does Green Mean Healthy? Mie Sehat Hijau

2008-12-27T21:14:00.000-08:00

On the same day, I tried Mie Sehat Hijau at Suryakencana. Well, it’s attracted me because its color, green. They say that it’s an organic product. I never tried before that kind of noodles.

So, got prepared and tried to experience it pleasantly. For the first time, I got excited because there are three colors of the noodles, green from spinach, red from bit, orange from carrot, and purple from..err I forgot. I chose the green one.

But when I tasted it, sorry guys nothing special. It tastes like just noodles. Enough said. There wasn’t spinach taste or something, it’s just noodles. At least, I’ve tried it. It’s just so-so, you can get it for 10 – 15 thousands Rupiah.

Meet Up at Soto Bang Ali

2008-12-27T21:04:00.001-08:00

After a 5 years long lost communication, finally I met again with my old friend Aditya Ekaputra.

With only 15 thousands Rupiah, you will get the whole package, soto consists of meat, lungs, babat, etcs, you can choose freely and of course nasi, emping in a huge portion.

Bang Ali himself is very kind, nice, and friendly. It’s just like a simple kiosk but it’s clean and neat. Old times, there is a butchering for goats, so it’s stinky. Luckily, there isn’t any butchering again there, so please feel free to draw on the fresh air.

Lomie Obor

2008-12-13T20:12:00.000-08:00

Hi y'all, I am back again after struggling with my final exams. Well, yesterday, I was on my culinary hunting again for a month vacuum. My dad, my elder sister Devi, and of course I, went to very old Chinese food station (don't worry, no pork) in Suryakencana Street which is the pride of Bogor City. Here we come, Lomie Obor.

It's quite good for after so much time passed by, I never set my foot on this old food station. Never change, even the "enci-enci", the owner. Lomie is like a noodle, specialty from Bogor. It tastes vehemently good, the gravy is very thick, full of meat and vegetables, plus the sensation of resfreshing green citrus. Ah, the taste endures perfectly in my tongue. =)

You will not just find the specialties of foods in here. They serve you with traditional crackers too. Yeyy! Full of chips made flour flavored with fish or shrimp. Blessed me, born in Bogor. ;) With 10 thousands Rupiah, you can buy the entire stock. Haha.

For the drink, they serve you with so many ices, like pala ice, mango ice, coconut ice, shanghai ice, es campur ( I can't refer it to English, worried that it would change the meaning ), lemon tea, pop ice, passion fruit ice, milk soda, bir kocok, cendol, rosella, tape (I mean tape from Bandung..haha), cingcau item, and bandrek. Hahahahaha. For only max. 7 thousands Rupiah, you'll get the freshness. ;)

A-ah! You also can find everything accessories for your puppy or doggy! hahaha. The owner loves dogs, so they sell everything for your dogs. For example, shampoo, powder, dog chain, toys, etc..etcs.. ;) It's just like a mini petshop. Haha.

Until now, I still like to see the enci-enci make a bill with special paper. So chinatown style. Here we goes, I give you the example of the bill. ;)

So, what are you waiting for, guys? Spoil your tongue with Lomie Obor, special menu from Bogor, even it's very expensive for a lomie, yes it's 17 thousands Rupiah, at least the taste you won't forget.

Happy eating, everyone! Please don't hesitate visit my beloved Bogor. The weather is perfect!

Aroma Khas Mesir Mid East

2008-10-07T01:04:00.000-07:00

Menu Indian and Arabian Style tentu tak jarang lagi. Nah, anda sudah mencoba menu khas Mesir? Wah, ada lagi citarasa unik yang ditawarkan Kota Bogor. Kita coba yuk datang ke Mid East Café Lounge and Shisha. Café berhawa arsitektur Egyptian ini menyuguhkan menu ala Timur Tengah dengan dominasi Egyptian Style yang menyajikan aneka nasi-nasian dari nasi briani, nasi kabuli, nasi kabsa racikan Timur-Tengah dengan daging ayam dan kambing dengan harga 25 ribu sampai 35 ribu rupiah.

Yang menjadi andalan mereka adalah menu Mid East Specialty yang nama-namanya susah untuk diingat karena beraroma Timur Tengah seperti Laham Mugalgal, Laham Matbih, Arabian Lamb Steak, Kebab, Chicken/Lamb Shawarma, Chicken Tandoori, Araise, Idam Dajad (terlampir di gambar) yang porsinya tidak terlalu banyak dan daging ayamnya kurang banyak dan hanya dipenuhi nanas dan saus Timur Tengah, Tongseng, Middle East Pizza dengan kisaran harga dari 21 ribu – 36 ribu rupiah. Tapi keseluruhannya hampir sama karena menyuguhkan daging ayam dan kambing serta pilihan nasi putih dan roti tortilla dengan variasi bumbu saja serta suguhan shisha dan roti cane yang sudah menjamur dimana-mana.

Ada juga Light Meals yang khas seperti Samosa goreng dan Falafel Sandwich ala Lebanon dengan campuran saus cocktail dengan kisaran harga 17 ribu – 30 ribu rupiah. Mereka menawarkan pula aneka sup dan yang paling khas hanya Surbah Soup seharga 25 ribu rupiah yaitu campuran kacang hijau, kentang, wortel, dengan bumbu khas Timur Tengah dan juga aneka puding, yang paling khas hanya Muhalabia seharga 15 ribu rupiah yaitu puding susu yang disajikan dengan madu, kismis, kacang almond, dan susu kental. Tersedia juga aneka minuman dari floaties, yoghurt, coffie, tea, fruity soda, mint suggested, milkshake, soft drink, serta aneka jus. Anda bisa mencicipi Lemon Strike seperti milkshake dengan tekstur lembut lemonish terasa menyegarkan sebagai pencuci mulut. Untuk minuman anda perlu merogoh kocek agak dalam dari 8 ribu – 22 ribu rupiah.

Banyaknya menu yang mereka tawarkan ada sisi positif dan negatifnya. Sisi positifnya bisa dilihat dari banyaknya menu yang tersedia sehingga bisa memuaskan selera pecinta sajian Timur Tengah yang beranekaragam tapi sisi negatifnya, karena menu sajiannya terlalu banyak, para pendatang yang baru pernah mencicipi sajian ini menjadi bingung dengan banyaknya sajian serta nama-namanya yang tidak mudah diingat atau bahkan ditebak makanan itu terdiri dari apa dan kurang terbayang rasanya seperti apa. Dari pengalaman mencicipi Mid East Café Lounge and Shisha ini, pelayanannya kurang memuaskan karena setelah memesan makanan, kita harus menunggu sekitar satu jam lebih untuk menikmati sajiannya. Wah, repot juga ya kalau kelamaan. Atau mungkin strategi dari Mid East sendiri yang membiarkan para pengunjung untuk menikmati suasananya yang mewah dengan gaya Timur Tengah? Siapa yang tahu?

Sajian Eksotis ala Alibaba Bogor

2008-09-23T07:07:00.000-07:00

Aneka makanan khas Timur Tengah mungkin bisa memberikan rasa baru bagi lidah anda. Wah berniat mencoba? Anda dapat menikmati otentiknya masakan Timur Tengah di Alibaba, Bogor. Restoran yang terletak di Jalan Pangrango ini memiliki ciri khas interior Timur Tengah yang unik. Suasana didominasi dengan warna merah maroon yang tenang dan nyaman, serta dipercantik dengan ornamen keemasan pada dinding dan karpetnya. Mereka menawarkan suasana yang hangat dan pas untuk keluarga maupun teman-teman dengan makan ala lesehan.

Uniknya, mereka menyajikan shisha alias rokok Arab beraneka rasa buah-buahan. Saya berniat untuk mencoba dan ternyata rasanya kurang begitu istimewa, yang ada malah terbatuk-batuk, mungkin karena tidak terbiasa merokok kali ya? Ketika kita menghisap shisha tersebut, tidak terasa aroma apel sama sekali dan hanya terhisap aroma asap yang terbakar, tapi ketika kita hembuskan kembali, baru terasa aroma apelnya walaupun hanya sedikit hinggap di hidung. Harga shisha yang mereka tawarkan adalah 30 ribu rupiah, dan pada hari Senin sampai Jumat, mereka memberikan diskon khusus bagi yang datang antara jam 2 siang sampai jam 5 sore. Lumayan ya ada diskonnya?

Saya akan mencoba untuk mencoretkan sedikit mengenai makanan yang menjadi andalan mereka. Pramusajinya memberikan rekomendasi untuk mencoba Madhbie Steak, yaitu steak kambing muda yang dilengkapi dengan kentang goreng, sayuran yang terdiri dari wortel dan buncis, serta siraman Arabian brown sauce yang kaya akan aroma rempah-rempah. Rasanya pedas karena ladanya ditaburkan agak banyak tapi daging kambingnya empuk dan tidak bikin berantem di dalam mulut. Mereka mematok harga 35ribuan rupiah untuk satu sajian Madhbie Steak hotplate.

Tidak puas rasanya hanya mencicipi satu jenis makanan saja. Nah, saya mencoba Beef Shoarma, yaitu daging sapi giling yang kaya akan rempah-rempah dan ditambah saus mirip thousand island, disajikan dengan khubuz (sejenis roti Arab, seperti roti cane tapi jauh lebih tipis), kentang goring dan acar Arab. Penyajiannya agak membuat bingung, oleh karena itu, diputuskan untuk mengambil daging sapi giling tersebut dan digulung bersama khubuz. Jadi jatuhnya agak-agak mirip kebab. Dagingnya empuk, walau aroma rempah-rempahnya terlalu menyengat tapi tetap moaaknyuss.

Kalau anda tidak terlalu suka daging sapi dan kambing, mungkin anda dapat mencoba menu daging ayam, yaitu Chicken Kebuli. Nasi gorenag khas Timur Tengah ini disajikan dengan ayam panggang dengan rempah-rempah khusus. Rasa nasinya agak aneh, mungkin karena terlalu berani bumbu sehingga rempah-rempahnya terlalu dominan. Anda bisa mendapatkannya dengan merogoh kocek 25 ribuan saja. Wah, ayo bisa ajak teman-teman.

Kalau anda merasa kenyang dengan menu yang berat. Anda bisa mencoba roti cane yang mereka tawarkan, yaitu roti yang menurut saya penampilannya seperti kulit lumpia basah karena tidak tebal dan garing tapi agak tipis dan mereka taburi coklat meises dan keju. Selain coklat dan keju, roti cane tersedia dalam rasa yang lainnya dan bisa anda dapatkan dengan harga 9 ribuan rupiah. Ada juga menu seperti risoles yang mereka tawarkan berisi daging kambing yang rasanya menyengat disajikan dengan saus sambal biasa, rasanya lumayan dan tidak terlalu special untuk risolesnya.

Untuk minuman, anda bisa mencoba Tamr Float, yang menurut mereka khas dari Alibaba. Tamr Float adalah juice Kurma yang diberi es krim vanilla. Rasanya creamy dan lembut, enak sekali tapi saya kurang merasakan rasa buah kurmanya mungkin karena tertimbun rasa es krim vanillanya yang lebih dominan. Untuk minuman anda bisa mendapatkannya dengan harga sekitar 20 – 25 ribuan rupiah.

Untuk makanan yang khas seperti ini, anda patut mencobanya. Menurut icip-icip kali ini, makanan di Alibaba cukup enak lho walau rempah-rempahnya terlalu dominan (kan namanya juga resto Timur Tengah?). Tapi sayangnya, saya kurang cocok dengan faktor rempah-rempahnya itu, terlalu nyereng aromanya. Satu lagi yang perlu diperhatikan, untuk makan di Alibaba, siapkan uang rada lebihan ya karena relatif mahal, harga yang telah disebutkan belum termasuk PPN dan service charge. Tapi bagi pemegang kartu mandiri, mereka sedang mengadakan promo dengan diskon 50 %. Beruntunglah wahai pemegang kartu mandiri.

Selamat menikmati masakan khas Timur Tengah di wilayah khas Sunda Bogor.

Sensasi Misterius Death By Chocolate Bogor

2008-09-19T05:18:00.001-07:00

Bosan di rumah? Ingin mendamparkan diri di tempat makan yang nyaman dan tentunya perut kenyang? Nah, ada tempat yang cocok untuk sekedar melepas tawa, ayo culik semua teman-teman anda untuk diangkut ke Death By Chocolate (DBC) Bogor. Tempat makan ini terletak di daerah Taman Kencana Bogor yang daerahnya lagi happening banget dengan berjamurnya tempat makan yang menawarkan berbagai specialties dalam hal makanan dan suasana, lebih tepatnya lagi berada di Jalan Ciremai No. 22.

Bila kita mendengar namanya, yaitu Death By Chocolate, tentu berpikir bahwa di Bogor ternyata ada cabang dari Death By Chocolate yang ada di Pondok Indah Mall. Ternyata salah, mereka sama sekali tidak ada hubungan bisnis dan oleh karena itu banyak orang yang mencibir dengan kesamaan nama tersebut dan menganggap DBC hanya mendompleng ketenaran Death By Chocolate yang ada di PIM. Akhirnya, diubahlah namanya menjadi Death By Chocolate & Spaghetti. Mirip-mirip juga ya?

Coklat, so pasti jadi menu andalan mereka. Tapi apalah arti sebuah nama, makanan mereka cukup ciamik. Konsep yang ditawarkan oleh Death By Chocolate sendiri sangatlah unik dan berbeda dengan tempat makan lainnya. Ketika pertama kali mengunjungi DBC, kebetulan saya datang pada malam hari, dan tempat makan tersebut gelap sekali terkesan remang-remang karena cuma ada obor-obor api sebagai penerangan, ditambah lagi di seberangnya ada jurang yang gelap. Wah, mereka sudah bisa membangun suasana yang misterius dari awal. Para pramusajinya sangat ramah-ramah, dan mereka biasanya menggiring kita dulu ke ruang tungku yang gelap. Lalu, tiba-tiba ada seorang berjubah dan berkerudung hitam kelam muncul dan secara mengagetkan menawarkan kue brownies andalan mereka. Jadi, yang punya kebiasaan latah, latihan mental dulu ya dari sekarang.

Interiornya didominasi dengan suasana yang tua dan tembok yang dominan warna batu bata gelap yang membuat suasana semakin seram saja, dengan kebun luas yang ada asesoris sumur tuanya di belakang. Pada bagian kanan, bangunan ada tiga bagian dan di masing-masing tembok pembatas terdapat jendela sehingga kita bisa melihat sampai bagian belakang. Pada bagian belakang terdapat taman kecil dimana kita bisa memandangnya dan merasakan hembusan angin. Dan perlu diingat, mereka irit listrik, karena penerangannya hanya sebatas lilin-lilin kecil di meja dan lampu-lampu kuning yang mungkin hanya 5 watt.

Ketika penerangan yang minim itu membuat para pengunjung kesulitan melihat menu, tiba-tiba mati lampu. Waduh, pertunjukan apa lagi ini? Dan dari arah kebun belakang, muncullah serombongan orang-orang yang berjubah dan berkerudung hitam. Awalnya kaget juga dan ngeri karena mereka membawa lilin mendatangi setiap meja para pengunjung karena pada waktu itu, DBC dipenuhi para food lovers. Ketika mulai mengunjungi meja saya, secara spontan saya agak minggir menjauhi karena ngeri, tapi tiba-tiba mereka bilang “Selamat Menikmati” jadi agak-agak cupu (culun punya) jatuhnya. Tapi tak lama setelah pasukan hitam itu pergi, lampu kembali nyala walaupun tidak ada perubahan signifikan.

Seperti yang saya bilang, menu andalan mereka berupa coklat. Selain cake coklat, ditawarkan juga coklat-coklat pralines yang dirangkai menjadi karangan bunga dengan kisaran harga 20 – 60 ribuan rupiah. Menu-menu yang mereka tawarkan juga unik. Ada cake coklat yang berbentuk kuburan lengkap dengan nisannya. Nasi hitamnya pun patut dicoba, yaitu nasi yang dicampur dengan tinta cumi, disajikan dengan cumi dan krupuk udang. Tersedia juga spaghetti bakar (frittata) beraneka rasa dengan porsi yang besar, dengan kisaran harga 20 - 30 ribuan rupiah.

Mereka bisa dipastikan menyajikan minuman hot and cold. Misalnya hot chocolate sebagai minuman panas yang disajikan lengkap dengan kuenya. Ada juga aneka minuman segar bernama grisseri, yang tersedia dari rasa coklat, strawberry, orange, dan sebagainya. Untuk minuman, mereka mematok harga dari 3 – 30 ribuan rupiah.

Dengan makanan yang serba coklat dan manis, lama-lama akan terasa giung alias kemanisan dan bisa menyebabkan rasa eneg serta mabok lho kalo dimakan berlebihan. Tapi kan tergantung persepsi orang, jika anda suka manis, tempat ini cocok sekali untuk anda.

Silahkan mampir kesini ya. Lumayan untuk seru-seruan.

Citarasa Pizza Persegi di Pastel and Pizza (Rijsttafel) Bogor

2008-09-19T05:18:00.000-07:00

Berbagi adalah hal yang paling menyenangkan, apalagi di momen yang bertepatan dengan Bulan Ramadhan ini, pasti anda tidak mau melewatkan buka puasa bersama teman, kolega, maupun keluarga. Apakah anda bosan dengan menu buka puasa yang itu-itu saja? Coba deh datang ke Pastel and Pizza (rijsttafel) yang menggabungkan unsur eropa dan masakan tradisional Indonesia, dijamin akan menggoyang lidah anda sehingga buka puasa atau sekedar kumpul bersama sahabat menjadi momen yang tak terlupakan. Tempat makan yang baru dibuka awal Agustus ini, berada di Jl. Binamarga I/1 (keluar tol, pertigaan Baranangsiang belok kiri lalu belok kiri lagi, ke arah Perumahan Danau Bogor Raya). Tempat makan ini memang paling pintar menyajikan menu buka puasa yang nikmat dengan cita rasa yang berbeda.

Dengan suasana homey yang nyaman, mereka menyajikan pizza yang dijual meteran, pastel spesial, dan rijsttafel sebagai menu andalan mereka. Pizza yang mereka sajikan adalah homemade yang dibakar di loyang berbentuk persegi panjang di atas tungku kayu panas, dengan ukuran ¼ meter seharga 36 ribu rupiah, ½ meter seharga 72 ribu rupiah, sampai 1 meter (16 slices) yang dijajakan dengan harga 144 ribu rupiah. Pizza dibuat sedemikian rupa, ada yang tebal, sedang, dan tipis. Toppingnya juga beragam dan variasinya bisa dipilih sendiri oleh tamu. Yang paling seru lagi, mereka menyajikan pizza caviar sepanjang 1 meter dengan harga 500 ribu rupiah! Wah, bisa dibilang cukup menguras kocek anda untuk pizza yang cuma ada satu-satunya di Bogor ini. Tapi tunggu dulu, pizza ini harus dipesan satu hari sebelum kita bisa menikmatinya. Ribet ya? Tapi sebanding dengan kelezatannya, slurp!

Jangan khawatir bila anda tidak mau memesan pizza caviar, tersedia menu pizza lainnya dengan rasa beef cheese, chicken dan tuna mayonaise, bahkan ada yang chocolate pizza yang per slice-nya hanya 9 ribu rupiah saja. Bisa dibilang murah karena ukurannya yang besar. Tapi sayang, potongan daging sapi dan daging ayamnya kurang banyak, serta pizza tunanya terlalu fishy, mungkin karena saya tidak terlalu suka tuna, pizza ini terasa begitu amis. Siapa tahu bagi anda penggemar tuna, ini merupakan makanan favorit anda?

Nah, begitu juga dengan pastel yang mereka tawarkan. Bila mau pastel yang harganya 9 ribu rupiah saja, anda bisa pilih pastel abon. Lebih direkomendasikan untuk mencoba homemade special pastel mereka. Yummie!! rasanya lezat dan juicy, serta ukurannya yang mengenyangkan. Isinya kaya akan beef, mozzarella cheese, puree kentang, serta telur puyuh dengan saus khas yang bikin betah di lidah, dengan hanya merogoh kocek sebesar 30 ribuan.

Bila anda bosan dengan menu makanan yang kebarat-baratan, anda bisa mencoba rijsttafel (istilah berasal dari Bahasa Belanda yang berarti makanan lengkap dari pembuka, makanan inti, sampai pencuci mulut yang disusun di atas meja). Rijsttafel disajikan dengan 13 menu yang mewakili citarasa nusantara dari sabang sampai merauke seharga 50 ribuan rupiah lengkap dengan nasi, minum, sampai disediakan juga kobokannya. Wah, unik ya? Menu-menu tersebut adalah es cincau bali yang manis dan terasa santannya, kue pisang yang legit, ikan pedak yang menurut kebanyakan pengunjung agak asin, karedoknya mantap dengan rasa yang pas, ayam santan, harmis campur ebi, oseng-oseng udang, tumis jantung pisang, sup, tahu tempe, nasi putih dan beraneka macam sambel serta lalapan.

Kalau makan terus, kapan minumnya ya? Nah, anda juga bisa menikmati beraneka macam minuman yang ditawarkan disini. Tapi minuman yang ada bisa dikatakan standar dengan tempat makan lain yaitu berbagai jus buah-buahan, ice/hot lemon tea, dan ice/hot cappuccino, dengan kisaran harga 9 – 15 ribu saja. Tapi tidak ada salahnya coba es pala. Coba tebak dulu harganya berapa? Ya, hanya dengan 500 perak saja, anda bisa menikmati sensasi segarnya es pala. Haree genee masi ada yang gopek juga ya?

Anda berminat? Jangan lupa datang ke Bogor untuk mampir sejenak di Pastel and Pizza (Rijsttafel) yang rasanya nendang banget selain mengincar oleh-oleh asinan Bogor yang sudah sangat terkenal itu. Tunggu info selanjutnya dari jalan-jalan saya di Kota Bogor di blog selanjutnya. =)
