D"Omelette

Often passing through this restaurant in Kota Kasablanka but I never had chance to try. Placed in Food Society Ground Floor, D'Omellete look so homey and cozy. with wooden interior in all over the place.

I like the open air design that D'Omellete have. It feels like we sitting in someone terrace. With a long wooden table and chairs. The atmosphere also fell like in the village home. Nice sitting here. Me and a friend choose sitting inside.

Enough about the place, now let's move to the meal. We decide to begin with something lite before entering the main course.

Cheese Stick - IDR 14.000

Deep fried mozzarella with mayonnaise dressing.
I  like this cheese stick. The mozzarella really melt when we eat it. I suggested to eat it when it's warm to get a melted texture from the mozzarella.

Pan Roast Dory Fish - IDR 46.000

Dory fish served with sauteed vegetables julienne, slice roasted tomato, sauteed mushroom, bononcini cheese cover with pepper oil and mixed lettuce.
Well, you can imagine from the details above. the dory cooked well. So tender and seasoned well. It feels like every ingredients blend well. Squeeze it with lemon to get more fresh taste.

Salmon Florentine - IDR 48.000

Norwegian Salmon Served with sauteed spinach, white bean, saffron sauce, basil and olive oil dressing.
Me likeeyy.... The salmon is so tender and juicy. The sauce make all flavor come together. With the good mashed potato, make this dish taste great yet healthy.

Overall, I think D'Omelette worth to try. With many various menus, from all day breakfast, full course, lite bite, or waffle & pancake, they have it all. the service also good and fast.

Otel Lobby Part Deux

Have I told you before that I like to visit Otel Lobby so much. It makes me visit Otel Lobby again. well, since maid still off-duty, so when my friend Yenny ask me to visit Otel Lobby again, I said yes right away hehehe....

Otel Lobby have masculinity yet sexy ambiance by putting an end-to-end attention of its exterior and interior design. Entering Otel Lobby, patrons will be greeted by the 'receptionist' under Otel's signature chandelier and trolley bag. Yeepp... Otel Lobby really want to bring us to the Vintage Hotel ambiance 

 

Now let's move to Otel Lobby's menu. There are also new menu that we'd like to try.

Pigs In The Blanket - IDR 45.000

Tender Beef Hotdog with warm Pastry.
Don't get wrong with the name. It totally kosher (HALAL) y'll. Nothing to do with pigs hohooho. The beef hotdog is really tender. Pastry served warm and a bit oily. It become oily because after they baked it, they spread it with butter. It meant to get a savory taste and shinny look. Served with spicy mayo to make it more great.

Garden Pasta – (R) IDR 55.000 (L) IDR 85.000

Add Chicken IDR 25.000 / Seafood IDR 35.000

My today's favorite definitely goes to this Salmon Pizza.  Thin crust pizza style topped with the very fresh smoked salmon. It not fishy at all. Eat it when it still warm. all ingredients more blend well and taste yummy.

Nutella Mouse - IDR 40.000

Candid Nuts, Strawberry

Chocolate lover must be in love with this dessert. So delicate nutella mouse cake topped with strawberry and Caramel that look like bird nest. Served with Chocolate nuts crumble, topped with vanilla ice cream and spread with chocolate sauce. All that served in this plate taste so yummy and melt in my mouth.

Don't forget for Otel Lobby interesting promo. Don't missed it. Just book a table to get a nice place. Otel Lobby have Hell Hour for you to escape from worst Jakarta traffic or try ladies night at Wednesday or do you like music? Come in Weekend for live music.

Too bad, every-time I come here, I never get a chance to meet the fabulous Chef Maya Aldy who create these scrumptious dishes. Always have a happy tummy in Otel Lobby
