Gettin' Cozy at Koffie Huis

Koffie Huis
Piccadilly Suites
Jl. Kemang Raya No. 99, Jakarta Selatan 12730
(021) 7179 – 2632

I knew this place from my friend, Dewi. She often hangs out here at Koffie Huis which located at Piccadilly Suites, Kemang. Tempatnya mungil but yet very cozy. Untuk yang mencari tempat ngopi-ngopi yang cozy dan ga berisik, Koffie Huis jawabannya. Di jamin betah deh ngopi or hang out di sini, oiya mereka juga menyediakan games (board games) like scrabble etc :)

The Cozy interior of Koffie Huis

Menu yang ditawarkan cukup bervariasi, dari mulai appetizer seperti french fries, bitterballen etc. Try French fries with wasabi mayo, Love it! Main coursenya juga bermacam2. I really recommend you to try their Tuna Spaghetti. It's very yummy, tunanya kerasa banget!! dan kita bisa pilih sendiri tingkat kepedasannya yuuumm...Dessert yang ditawarkan oleh Koffie Huis juga cukup menarik perhatian, salah satunya adalah Klappertaart dan Hot chocolate brownies with ice cream..sounds very yummy right? Coba juga pastry buatan Koffie Huis, enaakk dan bikin ingin pesan lagi..lagi dan lagi..*rakus mode ON*  Flavoured teasnya juga harus dicoba, it's unique and refreshing..They recommend Parisian Night to me and yes it's so fresh and unique and also refillable :)

I really like Koffie Huis, not because they are located near my house hehe..but for their coziness, foods and drinks. Soal harga, Koffie Huis juga tidak terlalu mahal, cocok lah untuk rasa makanan dan ambiance yang mereka tawarkan. I think i'm gonna go there again sometime on this weekend? anyone? :)

I got this yummy delicious lasagna recipe from mba Ria's blog, her lasagna with the super yummy cheese sauce make me drooled hahaha...so I decide to try her recipe for our dinner menu and to ease my sadness because of my failure macarons boohoo :(  yes macarons recipe looks very simple to make but it's very complicated when it came to the making process *sad*.

Back to the lasagna, the result is pretty good..I love it and it tasted soo yummy! this is one of the recipe that you should try at home especially if you are a cheese lover. 


Guess what?? I got a surprise about my macarons wannabe. When I was preparing our dinner, I looked at hubby and suddenly realized he's eating my macarons wannabe and also did my brother! They said they like it !! :) I'm very very surprised that they like my macarons wanna be.

Girls Day Out, Plaza Indonesia 12th Feb 2010

Last friday I went to Plaza Indonesia with my best friends. It feels like I haven't meet them for sooo long time so I'm so glad to see them all. Actually we planned to have dinner at Pizza e Bira, but Rima said the seating there is not very cozy so we changed our plan then go to Canteen. I've heard many reviews bout Canteen but hey I have to try it by my own. I like the atmosphere there, it's nice and cozy. And guess what they have bag hanger on the bar area, so you don't need to hug your bag all the times when you sit at the bar area.





I ordered Spaghetti Aglio Olio for my dinner..err early dinner exactly :). It's yummy but since I am a cheese lover I have to put so much parmessan cheese and chilli flakes on top of it. But overall the spaghetti aglio olio is ok. Rima ordered mini hot dog but believe me it's not mini at all, I wonder how big is the "not mini hot dog" is?? Hening and Fany just ordered some drinks there.

my order, Spaghetti Aglio Olio with chicken


After Canteen, we went down to Bakerzin because I'm craving for macarons hehe..Fany also want to buy valentine's gift for her hubby at Food Hall,aww how sweet she is :) I didn't buy anything for my hubby...I'm soo soorry hubby :p

Chocolate Raspberry macaron for my dessert


my culinary journey on that friday didn't stop at Bakerzin. Hubby picked me up there then we go to Nasi Goreng Kebon Sirih because he felt hungry again..yes he already ate at the office then suddenly felt hungry again..hihihi..too bad I didn't take any photographs there.

I can't wait for another girls day out with my best friends and another culinary journey with my hubby...so when will our next dinner? lunch? breakfast? anyone?? hehe....

Macaroni Day

I made this baked macaroni for my brother who just came back from Bandung (now he's in Bandung again duh). The recipe is the same with my baked spaghetti recipe, just substitute spaghetti to macaroni. 


When the baked macaroni is done, I still got few macaroni left. Hmmm what should I do with this leftover? I look in the refrigerator and I found few tuna inside..so I decide to make spicy tuna macaroni salad. The recipe is soo easy. I just mix my macaroni and tuna with sandwich spread (yes sandwich spread!) add a lil bit of lemon juice, black pepper and crushed chillies to add the spiciness. The taste is very yummy yet very fresh! Love my spicy tuna macaroni salad! :)




I love making foods from leftover, you don't waste anything and you can save more by not wasting anything from your refrigerator. But please if you want to make something from leftover, check the expire date of the foods or check them whether they are still in good condition.
