Fish & co - Jakarta

I love Fish & co., never regret my visit to this fisherman themed restaurant!

Yes the price is not cheap for my wallet, but once in a while it's so worth it to dine there. I deliberatly do not want to mention any certain branch of Fish & co., because all of  them that spread all over Jakarta, offer the same good quality.

I also adore the fish chowder, yummyyyyy! Too bad, some times when ordering the menu, at first I feel like I could eat anything they have to offer, but when the dish arrived on my table, usually I felt exhausted half way. Because the portion is that big, so in the second half of eating, it will be hard to enjoy just like the first half.

But, now to avoid that kind of feeling, I usually order the sweet and sour fish as seen in the picture, the portion is just right. And the sauce will give you a fresh taste, plus they add sauteed chunks of vegetables which make me feel less guilty for stuffing my body with deep fried food ^_^.


HOT PLANET, Sarinah - Jakarta

At first, we were quite impressed with what this restaurant had to offer, who wouldn't be if the menu was so varied, from Indonesian food, Asian food, to Western food, with reasonable price. They also had an impressive line of breakfast menu, starting from pancakes to Indonesian style porridge.

And judging from the customers at that time, this restaurant was not bad at all. But, they have a very strategic location, so it's too early to judge the food just by looking at the customers present. The ambiance I felt was too dark. And how was the food? Simply put, “PLAIN”. For presentations you can see from the pictures, but for the taste, there was nothing special. It's great that they can sale with an affordable price, but must the taste come out that bland?

So I won't return to that restaurant again if I have to pay for myself :D. 

This one was still okay
