THINGS TO DO IN THE SUMMER!

Hey guys! I know Summer has already started like a few weeks ago, but I just wanna share to you all my tips/ideas on what to do in the Summer if you guys are not doing anything or not travelling. 

Plus long summer holiday can get really boring from time to time so I think it's better to make something good from that summer holiday. So it is always better to do more productive stuff in the summer that doesn;t involve school work or skills (but sometimes it does hehehe).

So lets just get started!

Hope you guys like the video and if you do please give a thumbs up, subscribe and comment! Thanks guys for watching and have a great Summer!!!

Trip to Pantai Indah Kapuk

Blackball Taiwanese Dessert House

Ruko Garden House, Blok A, Bukit Golf Mediterania, Jl. Raya Pantai Indah Kapuk, Pantai Indah Kapuk, Jakarta

Yayasan Buddha Tzu Chi Indonesia

This place is really cool and different from any other buildings in Jakarta so I couldn't help myself to take pictures of the place. The building was designed well and its clean and also well managed which is different from any other places in Jakarta.

Locale 24 Diner & Bar

I did some photo taking at Locale 24 Diner and Bar since the place was really unique and interesting. Hope you guys enjoy it and find it interesting also! (sorry for the low quality photo it was because I used my iPhone 4 which has an average quality)

The address of the restaurant is at Ruko Garden House, Blok B 10 / 11 Bukit Golf Mediterania, Jl. Pantai Indah Kapuk, Pantai Indah Kapuk

Pantai Indah Kapuk - Culinary Trip

P.I.K - Culinary Trip

Hey guys! Today's post is just perfect for Summer Break or just a normal weekend in Jakarta, Indonesia. As usual Summer Breaks are really long and boring sometimes (if we don't have anything to do), so me, my sister and my sister's friend decided to go on a culinary trip for the whole day. We decided to go to Pantai Indah Kapuk also known as P.I.K.

PIK is located in North Jakarta which is quite far from my house (about an hour or more drive from my house) and PIK's location is actually near the beach/pier/ocean/sea or whatever you call it (cause Jakarta doesn't actually has a legit beach. Anyway, PIK is kinda like the 'It' thing or 'It' place for hangouts or for basically chilling with friends or family. PIK offers a lot of restaurants varying from Asian cuisine to Western Cuisine. They also have a couple of famous Dessert restaurants that is always crowded and you have to queue or be on a waiting list for quite a long time.

This trip was actually my second trip to PIK, but the first trip was just a simple to look around. This time we focused on the restaurants in PIK and hoped to eat a lot there. Our first stop took us to a restaurant in the Rukan Garden House called Locale 24 Diner & Bar. We have always wanted to go there because some of our friends likes hanging out there so we were curious about the place.

Locale 24 Diner & Bar has a diner and bar atmosphere so that costumers feel as if they are eating in United States. The menu they have ranges quite big, from local food (Indonesian food) to Western food and of course Desserts! They also have juices, soda, tea, mocktails and cocktails.

Each of us ordered different meals and overall the taste was really good and fresh!!

Fish and Chips

Macaroni and Cheese

Crispy Pork over Rice

That was all that we ate at Locale 24 Diner & Bar, we did not order any dessert from there because we wanted to try the famous dessert restaurant SumoBoo or Shirokuma Cafe which specializes on dessert.

We went to both but sadly they were all full and they have a waiting list that reach up to 11 costumers, so we gave up on both and decided to look around PIK area for any dessert restaurant.

In the end we went to a dessert restaurant that is located in the same area as Locale 24 Diner & Bar (the restaurant was a few blocks from here). It is called Blackball which is a Taiwanese Dessert House that serves Ice Cream and Waffles that was really good and different from any other. 

We ordered only two things from the menu which are Blackball Signature and Banana Waffle. Both tasted so good, fresh and unique in a good way.

We actually wanted to explore more after that but we were just too full and sleepy so in the end we stopped our culinary trip after that. So that was the end of my trip that day and hopefully next time I could visit more interesting places!

Thanks guys for seeing this post and actually understands my bad grammar and word placement hehehe. Anyway ofcourse I totally recommend these two restaurants that I visited because its really good and the price is actually average and quite cheap. We spent a total of Rp 250,000 in Locale 24 Diner & Bar include the tax and drinks and in Blackball we spent a total of Rp 100,000 for the two desserts we ordered and ofcourse drinks.
