Sydney 2015 (Day 1)

11 February 2015

Hi!!! Finally! For you who curious, no my blog is not dead yet! Been busy with job training since last year till the end of January, so no time to type no time to post and no time to wait for the photos to load! yeah, sad right. So after I finished my job training, it's time to have fun. So I decided to go to Sydney for my sister's graduation and of course to eat! Actually I supposed to go with my mom, but she canceled and I ended up by myself :(

I was flying with Garuda Indonesia, 10.30pm flight, arrived around 9.30am local time. Because the queues were so long it took me over 1 hour to pass the immigration. It was already 11am when I get out from the airport.

And from there, my journey began.

Part 1 - Hello, Sydney!

It was a sunny day, great time to explore and strolling around. Our first stop is Black Star Pastry in Rosebery.

UPDATE (6 April '14)

Setelah liat ini minuman entah dari mana (lupa hehe), gw jadi pengen coba. Dan pas lagi ada di Lotte, jadinya sekalian hehe :D

Namanya Misugaru, Misugaru itu Multigrain Drink dari black sesame seeds, black bean, black and brown rice sama barley.

Hot Misugaru Latte (R) - 37k

Misugaru Frappe (L) - 48k

Yang Lattenya wangi, rasanya juga lumayan enak. Antara yang latte sama frappuccino gw lebih suka yang latte, kalau yang frappe agak gritty teksturnya, kalau yang latte ngga. Cuma yang latte menurut gw super manis.

Kkuldak

4 Juli '14

Akhrinya Kkuldak di GI buka, setelah sekian lama mau cobain, kesampean juga hehe. Tempatnya ga terlalu besar, di sana cuma ada 2 meja kecil buat makan.

Di Kkuldak menu utamanya Chicken Ball, ada 3 ukuran, Small - Medium sama Large.

Kalo kita mesen, baru dia masak, jadi masih panas :)

Original Honey Chicken (Small) - 30k

 Gw waktu itu pesennya Original Honey Chicken yang Small - 30k. Isinya selain ayam ada rice cake sama tater tot. Kalo temen gw pesennya yang Spicy Honey Chicken, bentuk sama warnanya hampir sama. Kalo rasa, temen gw sama gw lebih suka yang Original daripada yang Spicy hehe.

KyoChon

15 Oct'13

Finally! Got to try KyoChon! They sell Korean-style fried chicken. Craving for this since last year, and the store finally open in Jakarta, located in Pacific Place.

.
Super Junior is one of their brand ambassador, and look! There's Siwon statue in here, from the side the statue looks quite okay, but it's creepy when you look at it from the front.

Their menu isnt very extensive, but they have Combo and Pub Set (Chicken & Beer) Menu.

For Wings & Drumsticks they have 3 flavours: Original (Soy Garlic Sauce), Red (Hot Sweet Sauce), Honey (Honey Sauce). And they came in 3 sizes, S/M/L.

Honey Wings - S/4pcs(34k), M/8pcs(65k), L/16pcs(125k)

Red Wings - S/5pcs(34k), M/10pcs(65k), L/20pcs(125k)

Original Drumsticks - S/2pcs(32k), M/4pcs(62k), L/6pcs(90k)

I like their wings & drumsticks, it was crispy and flavourful :9 For flavour, I like their Original and Honey. The Red was also quite good, but I think for the spicy one I like BonChon's more. And the crisp of the Red is a little bit different from the Original & Honey, the Red was a little bit hard.

Grilled Skewers Rice - 69k

Wasn't a fan of their skewers. Don't know what part of chicken they use for the skewers, but one of it still has bone. If I have to choose which one is better, I pick the red one, it was a little bit spicy and tastier than the other one. The rice tastes like it was mixed with ramen seasoning, quite good. They use blueberry sauce for their salad dressing.

Butter Rice - 11k

Kimchi Soup - 15k

Mediocre butter rice & kimchi soup.

Want to try their Salsal Series (Chicken Strips & Soy Salsal Salad), but sold out :(

취강 해물짬뽕 / Legend Of Noodles Restaurant

12 April'13

Choikang Haemul Jjamppong / Legend of Noodle ini dulu namanya Toh Dam. Setelah namanya ganti, spesialisasinya jadi mie. Kalo ga salah Choikang Haemul Jjamppong itu artinya The Best Seafood Noodle. Tempatnya ada di deket Holycow! Steakhouse by Chef Afit yang ada di Senopati.

banchan / side dish

Menunya nempel di dinding. Gw gatau arti tulisannya itu apa, tapi kata orangnya yang terkenal di sini Haemul Jjamppong sama Jajangmyeon. Tapi berhubung gw udah pernah coba jajangmyeon di Toh Dam jadi gw coba yang Haemul Jjamppong.

Haemul Jjampong - 65k

Haemul Jjampong ini isinya ada kerang, scallop, udang, kepiting, baby octopus, sayur sama kimchi. Mie nya kayak spaghetti, tapi kata mbaknya ini homemade. Kalo kuahnya kayak kuah ramen, cuma ini lebih mild.

Tang Sooyook - 120k

Tang Sooyook ini daging asem manis. Di sini kita bisa milih mau daging ayam/babi. Kalo ga salah juga ada 2 ukuran, kalo yang ini ukuran besar. Tang sooyooknya enakk :9

Di sini juga ada Wang Mandu, gw pengen coba tapi orangnya bilang belom ada.

UPDATE (12 Juni '13)
Kemaren itu lagi pingin makan Jjajangmyeon jadi gw ajak si koko buat nyoba makan di sini.

Naengmyeon - 65k

Kata wiki: Naengmyeon is served in a large stainless bowl with a tangy iced broth, julienned cucumbers, slices of Korean pear, and either a boiled egg or slices of cold boiled beef or both.

Yang di sini persis kayak kata si wiki. Broth di sini enak, sama kita juga dikasih spicy mustard sauce kalo kita mau tambahin ke naengmyeonnya.

Jjajangmyeon - 50k

Nih kata wiki lagi: Jjajangmyeon is a noodle dish topped with a thick sauce made of chunjang (a salty black soybean paste), diced pork and vegetables, and sometimes also seafood.

Setelah makan naengmyeon, rasa Jjajangmyeonnya jadi agak tasteless. Gw gatau kalo di sini Jjajangmyeonnya pake daging apa, daging yang di sini cuma dikit, kebanyakan dapet kulit :(

Oh iya, wang mandu nya masih ga ada :(

UPDATE (1 Sept '13)

Wang Donkatsu - 65k

Ini babi goreng tepung, ukurannya besar dan tipis, luarnya garing tapi dagingnya agak kering, dan ga gitu ada rasa. Tapi kalo di makan sama saos yang dia kasih jadi enak. Nasinya ga gitu banyak, tapi enak, kayak nasi ketan, diatasnya di kasih seaweed. Oh iya, di kasih sup juga, cuma kuah gitu doang sih, kata mbaknya sama kayak kuah Jjampong.

Seorak Chueotang - Restoran Bumbu Satu

18 Feb '13

Setelah makan bakso di depan kasirnya Grand Lucky, gw sama cici ke Restoran Bumbu Satu yang ada di Senopati

Hobak Juk / Pumpkin Porridge

Yang di atas itu semuanya complimentary, ada banchan sama hobak juk. Hobak Juk rasanya manis, sama di dalemnya ada glutinous rice balls.

Di sini yang terkenal Chueotangnya (Mudfish Soup), tapi gw serem hehe. Jadi setelah bolak balik menu akhirnya kita pesen Seollongtang, sebenernya agak ga enak sih cuma pesen 1, tapi yasudahlah, berhubung bingung mau pesen apa lagi dan kita udah agak kenyang abis makan bakso tadi. Tapi setelah makanannya keluar kita bersyukur cuma pesen 1, soalnya ternyata porsinya lumayan gede.

Seollongtang - 75k

Oh ya kata mbaknya di sini kuahnya dari ayam. Di dalemnya ada misoa sama daging sapi (daging sapinya banyakkk deh), terus di sini kalo pesen sup juga dapet nasi. Kuahnya enak, ga gitu asin tapi gurih. Di sini disediain seasoning di masing-masing meja, jadi kita bisa ngeracik sendiri kalo rasanya masih ga sesuai sama selera kita. /pas nulis ini gw jadi kepengen lagi :( Kalo ke sini lagi gw mau coba Samgyetangnya :D

UPDATE (28 Juli '13)

Side dish nya enak-enak, malem itu ada 8 side dishes. Yang warna merah paling depan itu ada ayamnya, terus ada ikan goreng asam manis, kimchi, salad, tahu, dll.

Nakji Bibimbap - 80k

Isinya itu spicy baby octopus,bumbunya enak dan gurih, tapi menurut kita bumbunya agak kebanyakan jadi kita tambahin nasi lagi hehe.

Ini kalo pesen bibimbap dapet sup juga, katanya tiap hari beda tergantung adanya sup apa. Kalo ini sup isinya daging sama lobak.

Yukgaejang - 80k

Yukgaejang itu sup yang isinya suiran daging sapi. Rasanya lumayan, tapi kurang nendang dibandingkan dengan tempat lain.

Seolleongtang - 80k

Sekarang harganya udah naik 5 ribu, rasanya tetep enak. Cuma waktu itu isinya (misoa sama dagingnya) lebih banyak, yang sekarang dikit :(

Terus kalo udah selesai makan di kasih complimentary buah semangka. Kita juga bisa milih lagi antara sujeonggwa, es kopi atau teh.
