Union (revisit)

1st visit
Part2:
Abis nonton harpot kita pergi ke Union rencananya sih mau nyobain cakenya. Soalnya si cici bilang katanya kuenya enak. Setelah melalui perdebatan mau pilih yang mana akhirnya terpilih juga 2 kue

Red Velvet - 50k

Crunchy Chocolate Tart - 50k

Kalo gw sih lebih suka Crunchy Chocolate Tartnya dari pada Red Velvet. Padahal orangnya bilang Red Velvetnya yang terkenal. Tapi gw ga terlalu suka. Kalo gw sepertinya lebih suka sama red velvet yang ada di Convivium dari pada yang di sini. Kalo mau coba cake di sini, mending coba yang Crunchy Chocolate Tart deh! Heheh :)

Nero Pasta - 65k

Kata temen gw sih rasanya lumayan kayak rasa pasta-pasta biasanya gitu. Haha.

UPDATE (12 Agustus '13)
Kita pesen Union Signature Cake Sampler (150k++ for two), isinya itu ada:
- 2 choices of Dammann Freres Tea (Breakfast, Darjeeling, Earl Grey, Chamomile, Ceylan O.P, Jasmine, Gunpowder)
- Cake Sampler (Pandan, Cheese Cake, PB&J, Red Velvet, Praline)

Gunpowder (Traditional unique Chinese green tea only found in the Zhejiang province)

Ceylan O.P ("Clasic Dumbula" -  Classic black,medium bodied w/ light caramelized flavor)

Cake Sampler - Pandan, Cheese Cake, PB&J, Red Velvet, Praline

When I read the list of cake of the cake sampler, I think I wouldn't like the Pandan Cake. But actually I like it, the sponge cake was moist and the cream was light and not too sweet. I will rank it from what I like the most to the least. Red Velvet-Praline-Pandan-PB&J-Cheese Cake. Didn't really like the PB&J because it was too sweet, and it has a strong peanut flavor. While the Cheese Cake was a bit dry.

Nachos - 70k

The chips were thin and crispy, and if you're looking for the chili, it's underneath the jalapenos. Not enough chili! We want more! ;)

UPDATE (25 August '13)
Cronut is a croissant-doughnut pastry developed by chef Dominique Ansel for Dominique Ansel Bakery in New York City. In May 2013, the bakery trademarked the name. (-wikipedia)

And finally I tried the Union's version of cronut, they called it flaky doughnut. If I'm not mistaken, they have 3 flavours, Chocolate Vanilla, Cinnamon Sugar and Caramel Peanut.

Chocolate Vanilla Flaky Doughnut - 35k

Their flaky doughnut was super crispy, but a little bit too greasy and their custard filling wasn't that much, want more filling please! :)
