Diet Coke (taken by: hikaruRKB)

I’m not a big fan of carbonated drinks yet I love diet coke for sure!
Not coca cola zero.
Not reguler coca cola.
But diet coke .

Why? I also have no idea why I love it. Maybe it says that for diet coke it will be zero calorie.
Hahahaha..
But for sure, I’m so happy that I can find it at Domino’s pizza in Jakarta.
I love the taste too for sure..
Hehehe..
So have a cool fizzy diet coke people!
Have a nice day!

Hugs&kisses,
-Biring-

Somehow I miss those moments. Hehehe..

Today, before my friends (Priski and Amanda) watch Flight movie that played by Denzel Washington at XXI studio in Ciputra World (CW) mall, we went to Pancious.

I knew Pancious since years ago in Jakarta.
And I like it!

And in CW, we have it just a while ago. So today, I eager to visit this place and have a good a little meal.

The pancakes (taken by: hikaruRKB)

The menus’ will be caramel fudge pancake and coco baileys pancake .
For the caramel fudge, I love the delicate taste of the fudge. Make me want to eat it over and over again. The caramel too!

For your information, I love sweet foods. Hahaha..

And for the coco baileys, you can choose for the ice cream topping which are vanilla, chocolate and cookies&cream . But for the cookies and cream, you need to pay more about IDR. 5,000 . The taste is good yet the baileys flavor, u barely can taste it since they put it so little. The chocolate syrup tasted more than the baileys. Still, u can try it. Still worthied to eat too. For the price will started from IDR. 39,000 exc. tax. And the price also depends how many pancakes that you want or you want it made as many layers of crepes . Tasty huh?

Overall, I like their foods and they also have many options for mojito varieties.

So, just try it if you want to. You won’t regret! #grin .
Happy weekend all..
Happy sunday.. #hugs
-hikaruRKB-

So, before I make any review about this place, let me say Happy Sunday for all of you. ^_^

May all of us have a great Sunday and better week in ahead.

It’s been a while that I make any review about a place to go.

So sorry all, since I have totally overload works from my boss so I couldn’t push myself to make any review about food/beverages or places like usual.

But now, I made it! Yay! Thanks God! ^_^

Mr. Pancake flip motion (taken by: hikaruRKB)

For today, I will make a review about Mr.Pancake restaurant @ Tunjungan Plaza 4 , Surabaya, Indonesia.

I like the decoration and interior of this place and so cozy for hangin’ out.

A corner in Mr. Pancake (taken by: hikaruRKB)

The seats also from a well-made couch that can make you stay at this place for a long time.

But somehow, if they have event nearby (since this shop just nearby for exhibition ), it’s totally annoyed me.

The sounds from exhibition are totally loud and make me not really comfortable to talk with my friend.

But beside it, this place is one of the places that I think that you can put in your list as your hangin’ out place.

Interior of Mr Pancake (taken by: hikaruRKB)

The decoration has vintage idea with some cute chandeliers.

And if you like to take some pictures, I think you can take this place in one of your references.

Hehehehe…

And for the foods they offer you start from sweet pancakes, savory pancakes, sandwiches, pastas, steaks, until finger snacks.

And for the beverages, they offers vary of hot coffees, cold coffees, chocolate, iced tea, sundae, assorted tea, smoothies, milk shake, soft drink, juices and some specialties (such as punch etc.).

For the prices will start from IDR.20,000 – IDR.70,000.

And like they slogan it’s all about getting your day started with the right meal.

Have fun and enjoy the food all!!

God Bless! ^_^

Biring at Mr. Pancake

Tenshin Han @ IDR.19,000 (hikaruRKB Collection)

This Tenshin Han, I will give 2.5 stars from 5 stars. Perhaps I’m a meatlover that’s why I give 2.5 stars. The soup is tasty yet not much of meats. You will only find crabstick (surimi) that fried with the fried egg. The price IDR. 19,000 (included tax) also reasonable since the portion is quite big.

But for its harumaki, I will give 4 stars. It’s so tasty and not too greasy. So you better not missed it!

And even for the drinks, they will give you in a jumbo glass. Just like venti size at starbucks. The atmosphere also good (for me) at here.

interior (hikaruRKB collection)

I like the interior of this place. As you see above, It’s a hole with sakura’s pattern. And a first time, I was thinking it’s a mirror at there. The ambience is so cozy and they have moderate space for many people. The services from the waiters and waitresses are fast. But for someone, who doesn’t like a place that make people see you in the restaurant, I think you won’t like this place.

Glass window (hikaruRKB collection)

As you see at this picture, they have glass window that allow any people who pass by this restaurant will able to see you inside its. Somehow, I enjoy this place since I can see many people outside. Kinda silly, huh? Hahahaha….

Well, for food, I believe I ever make a review before. But I will make another review about any food at this restaurant after this.

Ikan Bakar @ Pasar Genteng, Surabaya

Unclean.

Yet somehow,it’s not really clean because of too many people who are trying to eat at here yet lack of responsiveness of waiters.

But for the food, you have to try it. Not because of it’s really totally delicious.

The food price is totally cheap.

Can you imagine, for 1 portion calamary, 1 portion sweet sour clam, 1 portion grilled grouper, 4 ice tea, and 4 portion of rice, you only have to pay about IDR. 60,000. It’s totally cheap!

I almost fainted when they told us to pay that much. How come it is so cheap. My first negative thinking was I will get stomach ache after ate it yet I’m fine until now. So no stomach ache and I already went there for twice and still no stomach ache.

So, I think, maybe, for backpacker, you can try this place. It’s cheap, mate!

The place will be in front of hotel pavilijoen  at Pasar Genteng. And it will be opened start from 5PM – 11 PM.

Delicious grouper (hikaruRKB collection)

Ikan Tongkol Rica – Rica and Onigiri-chan (hikaruRKB collection)

I love fish especially seafood.

My nickname is cat since I love fish so much.

One of my favorite will be swordfish. In Indonesia we called it ikan tongkol.

A place that I can find it has a delicious swordfish cuisine will be this Pujasera Anda at Panjang Jiwo area nearby with Tenggilis area at south Surabaya. This place is for a student and family food court. The place is moderately big. Not really big one yet the place is kinda good. Suitable with the prices that they offer to us. It will started from IDR. 3,000 – 20,000. So, you can imagine, cheap place with a good food. You can put this place as one of your list especially you have a low-budget.

And you can see at here, they also offer you very cheap fresh juice and for the regular size its only cost IDR.4,000 – 5,000 and jumbo one will cost IDR. 8,000 – 10,000 .

fresh juice (hikaruRKB collection)

And I also love to eat snack.

That’s why everytime when I go to cinema I will buy a bag of popcorn to accompany me while I’m watching a movie.

I love caramel one since I’m not into salty thingy.

But for sure, popcorn is the only corn thingy that I love. The rest of them, I try my best to bear it.

I don’t like corn thingy for sure.

Maybe.. It’s maybe.. I’m becoming in love with popcorn because of the cinema.

And while in cinema, usually, the cheapest one as a snack is popcorn.

That’s why I always buy them and  love the caramel one.

Hahahahahahaha…..

Well, since I have this bank card, they have a promo.

If we buy a ticket with their card, they will give us a free popcorn.

free popcorn promo (hikaruRKB collection)

Somehow, I’m so happy if I get a great promo and save my money more.

So at least, my saving will be increased easily and my dream to go around the world will be accomplished easily too.

Hahahahaha…

Hm.. I think I will go to the cinema then later on.

#grin .

Ms. Onigiri – Bad Expression

Miss Onigiri bfc – Bad Expression (handmade by: Ardine ; idea by: Biring ; taken by : hikaruRKB)

This Ms. Onigiri will help me to show anything what I feel about the food or places that I will be reviewed!
Moreover, I need a cute friend to make my web more interesting. And Ms. Onigiri are purely idea from me and handmade by Ardine.
I’m not good in sew thingy that’s why I need her help.
It’s way better than mine.
So, please meet our new mascot! ^_^
Isn’t she cute? Hahahahahahaha…

Why Onigiri? Why not fruit or something like that?

First of all, I’m so in love with Asian food. I’m not a picky one yet my favorite will be Asian food since I love spices and herbs. And one of my favorite cuisine is Japanese cuisine. I love sushi. I can make it too yet I love onigiri since I have many great memories about it.

One of it is, my daddy tried make an onigiri for me when I was a little girl and it taste good! Although he didn’t put any nori as a wrapped yet I love it! Because at that time, it was a daddy daughter time.
My daddy lived in Japan gained his Master and PhD. Degree in chemistry. Somehow, his lifestyle in food also influenced by Japanese. And he gave it to me.

That’s why I choose Onigiri as my mascot. Tee hee!! Hehehehehe…

So, I introduce you, Miss Onigiri!
Or you can call her Onigiri-chan then. ^_^

Have a blessed day everyone!
Kusjes,
Biring.

hachi - hachi bistro @ Tunjungan Plaza, Surabaya (pic by: hikaruRKB)

Three words to express this place :

I Loveeeeeee Hachi-hachi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hehehehehehe.. I already want to make a review about foods at here. I have some menus that I love. One is Spicy Stir Noodle and Dragon Roll Sushi. And I think it will be added with this Tower Sushi. I also love their Cold/Hot Green Tea.

Chopstick cover of Hachi-hachi (pic by: hikaruRKB)

So, I can say that this place will be one of my favorite place. Although the place is crowded yet the atmosphere still okay. Not like in XO Cuisine Express that I already mentioned before. The service also good. So far, I don’t have anything to complain about this place. The price kinda bit expensive yet still affordable. It will be started from IDR. 30,000. I also already made a review about sushi hana. For the atmosphere maybe I will like Sushi Hana yet this place also not that bad. I still can enjoy my sushi comfortable.

So, let’s make a review about my favorite foods and beverage at this place.

Cold Green Tea @ Hachi-hachi, Tunjungan Plaza (pic by: hikaruRKB)

I hate bitter drink or food. But at Hachi-hachi, the bitterness is not that bad for their green tea. It taste good and somehow if you can make me love something that I hate, so it means totally good. Yeah I know, taste will come out differently for many people yet my friend told me (usually) if I said something good but actually I don’t like that food/drink so it means its good. Hahahahahaha….. So, I love their cold green tea. Even the hot one too.

Dragonroll Sushi @ Hachi - Hachi , Tunjungan Plaza (pic by: hikaruRKB)

This sushi maybe will become my youngest brother, Rendy, favorite too. He doesn’t like sushi since he hates raw food. But for the dragonroll sushi, it is not raw and inside it they put crab stick (fried one), mayonnaise butter, cucumber and on the top they put tobiko (fish egg the raw one yet it still delicious) and crunchy thingy from flour and some seasonings. This dragonroll tastes awesomely good!

spicy stirred noodle @hachi-hachi, Tunjungan Plaza (pic by: hikaruRKB)

This one is onemust-item that you must try at Hachi-hachi. The portion quite big so you can eat it for two people. It taste kinda spicy yet you can ask the waiter/waitress to tell the chef to made it not so spicy if you can’t handle one.

For the next one isTower Sushi. It is a raw sushi. If you don’t like raw fish or anything like that, don’t try it.

But for me, it taste good! Awesomely good!

The salmon not tastes fishy and it is so fresh.

When you eat it, somehow, you want it more and more. Too bad they only give us 6 pieces. Hahahahaha…

For the sauce, it taste great! They put some lemongrass into japanese ketchup. Love it!

You must try it for sure!

It is worthy to try it!

Wow… I think I already put many foods for this restaurant. Hahahaha.. It means this place is good! Awesomely good, I think!

Tower Sushi @ Hachi-hachi, Tunjungan Plaza (pic by: hikaruRKB)

Hmmmmm… I already became their customer evangelisht then

! Hahahahaha..

So, just try this place and prove it by yourself.
