Private dining experience in the #newnormal



Two weeks ago was my sister in law's birthday. We want to do something nice, we are all bunch of foodies so we decided to go for super early dinner. Thankful for some friends whom shared some references of some locations that we thought were quite comfortable to go and enjoy during this #newnormal time

We decided to book a dining session at a Japanese restaurant called Furusato Izakaya, located in Sudirman area in Jakarta, for 5pm dine in, because we thought that it would be less crowded. And it was a private dining, so we felt more comfortable. They did inform us that it was 2 hour period of booking, which was fine by us, because we rarely stayed long in public areas these days.


My mom looked super chic at the entrance^^

The restaurant reminded me of a traditional Japanese restaurant. The private dining area was located at the second floor. From the moment we walked in, the clean and health facility was satisfying such as liquid disinfectant, distance signage, people wearing masks. But I am sure even with that nice facilities, we need to always bring our own care kit.

I think there were 4 private rooms or more, I didn't get to look around. And also, I didn't get that many pics, but I hope you can see what I mean, and why we were very comfortable eating at this place:) 

Disclaimer: this is a one woman point of view of what she experienced and tasted during her first visit in January 2021 :)

The dining room look very nice - simple and clean:

This was my view, the room appeared larger in reality. I think it fits 8 people face to face


The staff was very helpful to the very end. They explained the menus quite clearly. I took some of the memorable menus:

Potato Salad


Wakame Salad, also my "compulsory menu" when eating at a Japanese restaurant. So fresh!

Yes, the usual Salmon Sushi. But look how prettyyy^^


More! More!




One of the signature dishes, Chicken Nanban - deep-fried chicken with nanban & tartar sauce.


Saikoro Steak. Sooo good!


Mille Crepe - Matcha flavour


Hokkaido Milk Pudding - Caramel Milk flavour




Overall it was a satisfying early dinner. Will I come back? sure, I always appreciate good food and good service. The place is not just comfortable for the family to enjoy, but also for dinner with friends. They also had outdoor area which is very convenient for smaller group.  

That's it from me. Stay safe and healthy!!

Weekend at a kid-friendly hotel in Sentul City

At the beginning of February 2020, me and my sister took our nephew for a staycation nearby Jakarta. My nephew is 10, he is no longer a little child, but still need that attention. So every time we have the time, we would take him to places where he can play, and us adults can chill. So we booked a hotel in Sentul City area, located near Bogor, West Java. We packed light, and planning two things: play and eat. Among several choice, we agreed to stay at Harris hotel. I’ve known Harris in different location from work, and one thing that I can say is: good food! I have had some lunches and dinners there, and everything is quite satisfying. We went on Saturday morning from Jakarta, it was a good decision that my sister stopped to by some fruits, because the traffic jam was so bad (via toll route). We planned to stop by near hotel for lunch, but it got cancelled because Sentul City area was also very crowded (the hotel informed us that there was a regular big religious event...

My colourful March 2022 - Lolski in Paris Part 1

  Hi how are you? I hope you’re doing fine^^ Salut from Paris! Yes I finally flew to Paris for my final exam as an Image Consulting student. I will break this topic into many..many posts because I stay here for one month, and I am travelling solo, and so far it has been one of the greatest moment in my life! I wanted to start by preparing everything before I flew to Paris, VISA. The truth was, I hadn’t gone anywhere for the purpose of study in like..15 years? Anyway, I was applying for “Student/Entrance Examination Short Stay Visa”. Disclaimer: this is my personal experience when applying for visa in February 2022, there will probably be adjustment in some parts, especially about the travelling policy due to the pandemic. My trip was arranged by a travel agent, since I thought I might find difficulties to adapt with current travelling situation & policies, and changes that may occurred.   You need to register for an appointment for your visa application by online, you can ...

My work stations at home (1) : Outdoor set

  Hey all! How is it going? I finally registered to one of Indonesia’s top unis for my doctorate degree plan, wish me luck! I still have one more options but it doesn’t start the registration session until early next year, so I will be waiting patiently about that. I have been reading and taking the test simulations with some books, and the tests will be next week, so I thought I will slow down for one day. I have done what I can and I deserve a little break >.<   It has been uneasy to switch your behaviour from working to studying hahaha. I mostly do my work inside, in a room, for concentration, but for the slowing down day, I’m just going to do a little bit of my freelance task, and a lot of Prime Video, I need some good outdoor set, also to get some sun because I have been spending most of my times in a room with an AC.   As per usual, I prepared myself in the morning with a little bit of make-up, just to keep my discipline in grooming myself, because as fun as l...
