Icip-icip Mr. Pancake

Minggu ini gw dan Kris berniat pergi ke Setiabudi One, udah lama ga kesitu, padahal dulu bisa dibilang lumayan sering. Tujuan utamanya adalah nongkrong di Mr. Pancake. Karna dulu gw ga kos, ke Setiabudi One lancar2 aja, kan belum kerja juga jadi biasa berangkat pagi/siang.


Namun karna sekarang gw kos di daerah Binus, wah macetnya ga ketolongan lagi. Belum lagi ada kegiatan byk, ada proyek juga. akhirnya baru bisa brangkat jam 4 lewat. Di tengah jalan ampun2an keselnya, karena mengejar waktu biar ga kena 3in1, jadi buru2. Tapi macet luar biasa, dan banyak yg nyetirnya oon, takut2. Mau belok kiri di perempatan harusnya langsung aja, eh malah nunggu lampu merah. Ada angkot di depan masih kisaran 1,5 meter udah ngerem, haduh. Jalan juga di tengah2, padahal itu jalannya buat 2 lane, jadi kita ga bisa mendahului. Greget bgt, pas diliat yg nyetir cewe. Pantes aja, udah pengalaman banyak kalo cewe emang nyetir nya bego. (cewe ngatain cewe hahahaha)


Akhirnya kena 3in1 dan terpaksa sewa joki berupa sebuah ibu2. Jadi ga asik ngobrol deh -___-

Di Mr. Pancake Setiabudi One, kita pesan 3 menu dan 1 minuman, tapi menunya bukan main course ya.
Kalo mau main course ada spaghetti dan lain-lain tapi belum pernah coba juga.


1. Chocoholic Lovers Pancake (semua menu pancake bisa diganti waffle) +/- 27rb

Caption di menunya : Original Pancake, served with Belgium Chocolate Sauce, Premium Chocolate Ice Cream and sprinkled with crushed Oreo.
Di gambar mungkin terlihat kecil, tapi aslinya gede kok diameter nya, karena ukuran piringnya juga jumbo ga kaya piring biasa. Gw pribadi sih kenyang makannya. Wah ini recommended BGT deh, bner2 enak bgt. dan memang kerasa kalo coklatnya premium, ga terlalu berminyak dan ga terlalu manis, bittersweet. Adonan pancake nya sendiri sejauh ini yang paling enak yang pernah gw makan. Ga terasa kering dan ga berasa tepung, lembut bgt dan empuk. Kuning telurnya lebih banyak, jadi premium dan lembut. Dan lagi masih berasa anget. TOP DEH. Kalo ke Mr. Pancake this is the first menu to order!

2. Durian Pancake +/- 32rb

Caption di menu :
Original pancake with homemade durian sauce, premium vanilla ice cream, sprinkled with sliced almond and granished with fresh strawberry.
Gw sih emang ga suka duren. Ini punya si Kris, cium baunya aja ud enek bgt kalo gw. Cuman si kris emang ahli duren bgt, kalo ke Honeymoon Dessert juga pesennya durian pancake mulu. Kalo menurut dia sih, ini enak dan recommended juga bagi pecinta durian hehe.

3. Potato Wedges +/- 18rb

Untuk potato wedgesnya memang agak mahal sih, isinya sekitar 7 wedges/ porsi. Cuma enak kok, saosnya juga enak. Ga nyesel.


Untuk minuman gw pesen Lychee ice tea (es teh dengan 4 buah leci + ekstrak leci) +/- 23 rb
Kris pesen Green Peach Punch (soda peach) +/- 24rb

Jadi total ngemil 134rb di bon.

Overall, Mr. Pancake oke bgt, rasanya enak. dan emang udah byk review kalo dy ini the best pancake in town. Walaupun ga setebel P*ncious, tapi harga jauh miring. Recommended deh. Untuk liat menu lengkapnya bisa klik link ini (+ harga)

Kalo diliat dari rasa, emang resto ini juara, tapi ada beberapa teman yang bilang kalo spaghetti disini agak kurang enak, makanya gw ga pesen spaghettinya, tapi untuk rasa pancakenya sungguh juara! Recommended deh buat dtg ke sini, tempatnya juga cozy dan feels like home bgt.

Untuk melihat dimana aja outletnya, dtg langsung aja ke official websitenya , klik lgsg aja di judul post ini. Happy eating :) 

Sherly and The Cheesecake Factory

This is not a sequel of Charlie and The Chocolate Factory, teehee.

Few days ago, I went to The Cheesecake Factory (I'll call it CCF from now on) at Tomang, West Jakarta with my boyfriend.

Since I've visited CCF web here, I always daydream about its products, haha. The soft texture, sweetness, and creamy look of its cake and French pastries seem like heaven to me. They are pictured as the most tempting dessert in my mind, just as pictured on the web.


I wanna share my *memorable* experience in CCF.




THE ATMOSPHERE
==============
i like the atmosphere. warm and elegant.

THE FRENCH PASTRIES
===================

Triple Cheese Cake (Rp 17.000,00/slice)

Tiramisu (Rp 17.000,00/cup)

Triple Chocolate Cheese (Rp 17.000,00/slice)

I ate tiramisu first. I always love tiramisu, that's why it becomes my order. So classic, so old, so ordinary, but i like it. haha.

First bite : I think this is creamy. 

Second bite : No, this is so greasy. 

Third bite : Too greasy, actually. 

Fourth bite : is this really tiramisu? I only taste its greasiness in my mouth. Where's the sweetness and all?

Fifth bite : My stomach's full

Sixth bite : I wanna puke. I feel like eating fat.

Seventh bite : I don't think i can make it. I really need to puke.

Last bite : I promise myself not to eat THIS STUFF again, ever.

I've never eaten any tiramisu that's as bad as CCF's.

I also try a bit of two other pastries and my opinion is still the same. I feel like eating fat. It makes you full just by eating some small spoon of it. It makes you want to puke, so much. The cake doesn't taste sweet and puffy. I don't know how to describe it. It makes your stomach full in a bad way.

I don't like any of them, AT ALL. Maybe i'm just not meant to be their loyal customer. I think they have quite many customers though, because they are opening their branches just like everywhere.

I just don't go with the mainstream, maybe. I wanna know others' opinion about CCF pastries, do you think it's good?

THE DRINK
==========

Pina Colada (Rp 30.000) : Can I switch this with mineral water please?

Honeydew Smoothies  (Rp 30.000) : Better, but still....

Well, I bought 2 jars of cookies from CCF. I think it's quite good. You better try the cookies than the pastries. 

Snowy Almond (Rp 45.000)

Crunchy Vanilla (Rp 35.000)

I recommend CRUNCHY VANILLA (Flour, Icing Sugar, Butter, Vanilla essence, Cornflakes). It tastes both sweet and a bit salty. I like it.  :)

I've once tried A La Carte at FX Lifestyle Center, Senayan. It serves the same type of products as CCF, but in a better way. The cheesecake is heaven. The drinks are better.
The price range is the same.

But i still wanna go back there sometime, i haven't tried this :

Grilled Chicken Breast

I will, soon.
