Some Foods in Jakarta

 I had a trip to Jakarta in the end of October 2013. It was a 3-days tiring trip. But, it's not a complete trip without having culinaries in our destination. It was really like a mesmerizing culinary journey in Jakarta. So now, here I have some photos about delicious tasty foods that I got interested when I visited Jakarta. 

 

Gado-Gado. This is so good! Gado-Gado is Indonesian Food made from mix of lettuce, egg, cut potato, cucumber, green bean, corn, bean sprouts and peanut sauce with additional prawn crackers. I found this Gado-Gado at ITC Kuningan 3rd Floor Blok D. It tasted so delicious and the peanut sauce is tasteful. Perfect for main course or appetizer. The price is around Rp 10.000 - Rp 15.000

This one is Kopyor Durian Ice (Es Kopyor Durian). This drink is made from durian + kopyor + shaved ice + cocopandan syrup put in a glass. I just can say that it taste so refreshing, delightful, and best for hot weather. You should try this one. The price is different in some places, but this one costs around Rp 30.000

This is Javanese Fried Nodle (Mie Goreng Jawa). This taste is so perfect. The noodle was well-cooked, spices was really good the taste of Indonesian spices. Anyway, this was the best kind of noodle that I have ever tasted. It's not only in Jakarta you can found this, but in any places in Jave or another places in Indonesia. The price is around Rp 20.000

And this is Rujak Kolam Medan. I have to be honest that this was the best of the best. Made from any kind of fuits with topping of authentic sweet spicy mix of palm sugar, thin slice of raw banana, chili, sugar, salt, terasi, etc and fried peanuts. Taste so fantastic. I found this at ITC Kuningan 3rd Floor Blok D. Price is around Rp 15.000

Trip at Floating Market in Thailand

If you guys have ever heard about Floating Market, what is the first thought that comes out your mind ? Water, Boat, Handicrafts Sellers, or anything ? Yap, Floating Market is just like to go shopping shop by shop in a boat. 'floating' it means that we are sitting in a boat and let theboat driver drives us to any shops located in the Floating Market. Having a trip or just sightseeing in Floating Market is a new way of holiday to try when you guys are having holiday in Thailand. To enter the market we need to pay for the entrance fees, and luckily at that time, me and my friend got very cheap price, it is 500 Baht for 8 people (normally it cost about 1000 Baht or more). After paid the entrance fee, we were sitting by the river to wait for our boat. Each boat can be occupied by 4 people. It took for about 15 minutes to wait until our boat came in and there we go! So, to let you guys know about what things that we can find in Floating Market, here I have some photos. Check it out!

This was when we just get started to discover the floating market.

So many kind of handicrafts, stuffs, and culinaries that you cand find at Floating Market

Swiss Sheep Farm, Cha Am, Thailand ( July 29th, 2013)

Hello everybody, it's nice to write here again. And now let me tell you about my trip to Swiss Sheep Farm in Cha-Am Thailand. It was on July 29th, 2013 as my second day in Bangkok that time. Since I and my friends planned this trip to Bangkok, we really wanted to come into Swiss Sheep Farm as we viewed in its website, the place is so interesting. And there we were. It took approximately 2 hours from Bangkok to reach Swiss Sheep Farm. It was a nice road trip. We saw many new things, everything in our journey. When we arrived at Swiss Sheep Farm, yes, it was a really nice place. We paid for 50 Baht for the ticket (entrance, include sheep farm feeding). It was a big place. There were also ducks, gooses, pony horse, horse, pond with fishes, food stalls, and many more ( I loved the milk which sold by the cafe, so refreshing). You can also feed the sheeps here and do other activities. That place was very unique and good place for taking photos, lovely place. I spent 2 hours here to explore this lovely place and took some photos. I wanna go back there someday. You have to spend some of your time to go to Swiss Sheep Farm when you are in Thailand. Very recommended, beautiful, nice place!

Here it is. The landmark of Swiss Sheep Farm. Very cool and beautiful.

I was playing the cradle here. Look the panorama. Gorgeous, well-arranged place.

This is the fish pond. You can also see goose or duck swims. Nice!

It is so unique and lovely. The hanging frames is unique.

Me when feeding the sheeps. My first time ever!

Sheeps in the Swiss Sheep Farm. Is there any single one ? Hahaha :p

Pantai Pandawa, Bali

Pandawa Beach (Pantai Pandawa) is one of most happening beaches in Bali. Located near Uluwatu, this beach gives you scenic panorama and clear water. To get to Pandawa Beach, you need to pass by Jimbaran Hill and follow the way to the beach. Don't worry, you will not get lost because there are road signs telling you the way to the beach. You can also stop by the street and ask the people around there. Once you arrive at the 'entrance' gate of Pandawa Beach, you will see such stunning limestone hill. You can see Pandawa Beach at the hill. Pandawa Beach is actually located after the hill. So it is like 'hidden paradise' and commonly said as Secret Beach. You can enjoy the beach by swimming or canoeing or just lay down your body in the beach-shore.
