Dunk in to the milk mixture each side and then cook on a non sticky skillet on low heat. Cook until it's golden brown serve with some fresh fruit and drizzled with honey. Enjoy ^^

Bali With My Girls - Day 1

This is one of my holiday post, I'm really excited about this trip because I got to experienced it with my girl friends which I haven't been done in such a long time. We've decided to go to Bali, I mean Bali is always a good idea and you'll never get tired of it. I pretty much planned the whole trip since it's my favorite thing to do, I booked the flight, hotel, rented the car and planned for our itinerary. 

On our first day we went to Tanah Lot temple. Tanah Lot means "Land in the Sea" in the Balinese language. The temple sits on a large offshore rock which has been shaped continuously over the years by the ocean tide. Unfortunately Tanah Lot was very crowded that day with tourist mostly local and korean, the Sun is not very friendly so hot since we got there on the middle of the day so we didn't spend a lot time there. After getting some iced tea blended at the local shop we continued our trip to one of the hip place in Bali. 

Hot sunny day still manage to hold a pose

Since my last time in Bali on my honey moon in 2011, there's a lot new cool places spreading around Bali and what better ways to visit them other than with your friends. We went to Vue Beach Club located inside LV8 Resort in Canggu area, I booked a cabana by the pool for us to hang out. The place was amazing I really love their white and blue design very chic and clean, the beach is simply breath taking. I'm just gonna let some of my pics do the talking. We're really enjoyed spending the rest of the day here it's so quiet and relaxing, far away from hectic life in Jakarta.

We also had our lunch, loved their drinks so refreshing

The pool and the beach side by side

Don't get tired of my pose, yet!

After visited Vue beach club we headed to our hotel at Seminyak Townhouse to check in and get ready for our next destination. I really recommend this hotel when you're travelling with group of friends or family, it's a townhouse with two stories building, there's two rooms each with inside bathroom on the second floor. On first floor there's a living room and pantry equipt with some basic cooking utilities and dining ware and of course dining table set to enjoy meal together.  

A Late Post on My Singapore Holiday

When the Indonesian people want to get away for awhile to a more sophisticated, orderly and clean city/country we go to Singapore the melting pot of Asia. Singapore is an expensive city to visit in my opinion, with the same budget holiday cost in Singapore we can get a lavish holiday in Bali, but at least there's a lot of promotional flight to Singapore from Jakarta...meh! Anyway here's a recap of my holiday with hubby at Singapore on January, I know it's a long overdue but hey better late than never.

On our first day we visited Singapore Botanic Garden, it's a very huge park in the middle of city and it's very well maintenance of course like every other public place in Singapore. A lot of people jogs and walk their dogs or babies, and kids running around, this is a very relaxing place I wish we had this place in Jakarta such an Oasis of oxygen. Inside SBC there's an National Orchid Garden which by the way just simply enchanting with their various collection of Orchids around the world. Me and hubby had a such a good time walking in this park.

On our second day we went to Sentosa Island, it's a is a popular island resort in Singapore, Attractions include a long sheltered beach, Fort Siloso, two golf courses, two five-star hotels, and the Resorts World Sentosa, featuring the theme park Universal Studios Singapore. I also had chance to ride Luge and Sky ride it was a totally fun ride I had it 3 times in a row for like 23 SGD.

We had a late lunch at Arab Street we try the famous Chicken Briyani and Murtabak they were soo good. By the way we're staying at Bugis area, it's an affordable yet comfortable and convenience area to stayed in Singapore and the best part there's Bugis Market where you can shop till you drop with a bargain. Our hotel is near Bugis Junction which below there's Bugis MRT Station which make it very easy to get around and to get some food.

On our third day we went to Garden by the Bay, a beautiful park in the heart of Singapore adjacent to the Marina Reservoir The park consists of three waterfront gardens: Bay South Garden, Bay East Garden and Bay Central Garden.The largest of the three gardens is Bay South Garden, standing at 54 hectares. Another lovely day to spent it under the Sun along with my most beloved person in the world my dear hubby.

See you soon Singapore!

What I Ate Sunday

I love Sunday, it's time to just chill out with hubby around our house. It's also a time for me to explore my novice cooking skill and of course I also love to eat.

Breakfast

On Sunday I usually start my day a little bit late around 9AM, so I have a simple breakfast some kiwi's, mini danish and hazelnut spread and some guava juice, we're usually made it from fresh guava but since it's not in season so this one is from Sunripe.

Lunch

For lunch I made an Indonesian traditional meal; a saffron rice with spicy beef liver and potato (sambal goreng ati) and some omelette sliced. This meal usually served for special event in Indonesia such as birthdays, thanksgiving (syukuran) and any other festivities, this one is the more simple version of it though.

Diner

For Diner I made an Oriental Fried Rice with chicken breast, sweet corn, egg, garlic and onion. I just loved Asian food so much and this is a very easy diner but taste so yummy.

So that's what I ate on Sunday I know I should be dieting and eat more healthy food but I just can't help myself. In my defense since I'm not a big fan of vegetables I like to make vegetables juice with broccoli, carrot and tomatoes. I also made one for myself  before diner but since it's not pretty I don't take photo of it. And since I keep all the fiber my juice it's became very thick so I also made Lemon water to help me take it down my throat. 

Spread The Pink

Happy Valentine Love birds, how was your valentine's day? mine was wonderful today at the office me and my coworkers are dressed in pink and our boss treat us to lunch at Tairyo. Hope you can celebrate it with your loved ones.  cheers ^_^
