Yi-Kon - Mall Kelapa Gading, Jakarta

If you're happening to be in Mall Kelapa Gading, a well-known mall/ shopping center in Jakarta, aaaandddd having a sweet tooth craving, I reccomend you to try Yi-Kon.

So Yi-Kon is located at ground floor (the same floor as Food Hall, Bread Talk, Timezone etc - ground floor?) and I heard this from a post from my instagram.

Well that time I only tried this:


Super unfortunately I forgot it's name AND its price (my bad) but I think its the Taro - ice cream/ yogurt thing (u can find the exact dessert from looking the pic at the menu).

Which as expected.... Is super yuuummmmmmyyyy! ❤️

I may say everything is yummy (like literally) but this is a new twist of ice cream (since its taro flavored) and they got little jellies, liquid yogurt, and topping of your choice!

*you can pick between red velvet crumbles/ blue/ black ones... Little mochi, etc*

I love it love it love it ! Can't wait for another dessert from Yi-Kon <3

Dobutzoo - Asian Snacks & Desserts Cafe, Surabaya

Established in persumably early 2016's, Dobutzoo is a small cafe located in front of DS Bistro (behind GWalk, Citraland, Surabaya) - selling various kinds of asian deserts and snacks, including one of my main fave desert - Matcha (a.k.a Japanese green tea)!

I've always pass this place everytime I go home from school, so basically I've been craving to try this every single day. 

And it comes to this day!!

 
First time you get in, probably you'll smell a light vanilla scent which is such a good accessory to a cozy space.
Zebra butts tho LOL

First menu? Dobutzoo's Signature Parfait (34k) - with a pint of soft vanilla ice cream and matcha ice cream each, fried Mars bar, Ferrerro Rocher, Japanese sticky rice balls (no fillings, sadly), thin pieces of almonds, and chocolate syrup.
(P.s. : Add me on Snapchat! reginayacika)

Which tasted sooo divineeeee 😍❤️ I'm in love with it, but one thing that's disappointing is the Japanese sticky rice balls, since it doesn't have any fillings (like nuts, etc). I ate those after I done my ice cream - so my bad #eeeepp hehehe

Not just ice cream, but we gotta try the food as well. So I chose : 
The XXL Chicken with Rice (40k) which got:

It is basically XXL Chicken (my mom ate this, not me) and the chicken was kinda dry but it was super crispy. Love love love!!


So far, I would reccomend their desserts better. 

Thanks for reading! Stay tuned, xo ❤️

Spago, Boulangerie Cafe & Crossborder Kitchen, Surabaya

Hello again guys!! I know it's been a long while since I post something - you know, cramming through tests etc etc. 

And to celebrate the early of March, my school decided to "vacationize" (I guess you can call them that) the 10th and 11th graders. Pretty exciting? I know!

I also decided to try on a new -kinda happening- spot around town and my decision isssss......

SPAGO!! Yes - this place is located right next to Hachi-Hachi bistro, on GWalk, Citraland, Surabaya. 

From the outside it may looked like a bakery (at least that's what I thought at first lol) but who knows they actually got good food too??

After a while looking the menu I chose Pesto Basilico (IDR 57k) that's got spaghetti, sous vide chicken breast (good fo' diet tbh), basil pesto sauce, parmesan, and garlic crostini (a.k.a. garlic bread) - which looked something like :


And let me tell you guys - IT TASTED HEAVEN!! Even though its kinda pricy, but with the taste, it's all worth it.

And to accompany the heavy menu, I chose a chamomile tea (looks very, very cute btw)
And also the good 'ol Latte...

Delishhhh 💖

I do recommend this place, especially if you're looking for a cozy place to hangout or dine with your friends, family, or boyfie/ girlfie. Spago also have a crossborder kitchen so you can see what's cooking on and boulangerie shop to get your bread list checked. 

Can't wait to get there in any minute!!!
