Good
news everyone: HELLO KITTY CAFE is officially opening in Jakarta! Pantai Indah
Kapuk will be the arrival land of the famous establishment, precisely
at Rukan Crown Golf, beside (and on the second level of) Tsubohachi restaurant, both restaurants are owned by the same owners.
Many
of you wonder and actually Snapchatted me personally asking whether it's the same Hello Kitty Cafe which previously opened
(also) in PIK, I personally have never been to that outlet before so I choose not to comment on anything, but this
particular one that I went to earlier today is the official one with the direct
license from Sanrio international. Talk
about Snapchat, I probably got the most consecutive printscreens I’ve had on my
Snapchat history, literally every single thing that I posted got at least 100
screenshots.
Hot
date: sister! She just had her graduation two days ago (as this post is written). Happy bro I am!
They
invited me to come to the bloggers preview that I attended earlier today (thank
you for having me), and we were spoiled with so many food that came NON-STOP, but anyway that's good so I have tons of pictures to share to you, but do note that
this wasn’t exactly a food tasting session, so to be honest I didn’t try each
and every single thing or manage to capture every single thing as the rolling was
quite fast and I lost track a bit, but I got most of them covered and I am
preparing the pricing details and short review on everything that I tasted as reference.
The
Jakarta franchise is clearly smaller than the ones I've been before and far
smaller comparing to the one in Bangkok, but I personally love the design of
this petite cafe, even from outside, I love looking at how pink and petite the
cafe looks, and just very eye-catching. The interior was cute and colorful, but
doesn't appear cheap, and for some reasons, I love the homey ambiance delivered
to the room. By the time of our visit, the third floor was not ready yet.
So the ultimate question for food Instagrammers is whether the place is bright or not? It's quite bright during the day, but I suggest tagging the place by the window for better picture outcomes, because then the other seats will depend on the restaurant's lamp lighting.
Most
of the cafe's second floor area is accommodated for their mini pantry and dessert display, which is
good because I love this kind of concept, and I can totally see what they're
doing to my drinks and desserts. Most of the food here is comfort food, all day
breakfast and desserts so expect to see sandwich, and lots of eggs! The food and beverage here ranges from IDR 28k to IDR 108k for food and IDR 18k to IDR 98k for drink.
They’re
using Simonelli espresso machine for their coffee here. Yay!
Iced Cappuccino – IDR 40k
The iced cappuccino was not
bad, just a tad milky for a cappuccino.
Kitty Zilla – IDR 98k
GINORMOUS milkshake to
share with 3/4 of your friends! Banana milkshake with fruit loops deco, cotton
candy and all that goodness. For a IDR 98k it’s worth it!
Bacon Bits Fries – IDR 48k
French fries with bacon
bits and special Aioli sauce. The sauce was SO DAMN GOOD! Didn’t expect that I
would have one of the tastiest Aioli sauce I’ve had and it’s here.
Caesar Salad – IDR 55k
Probably the cutest Caesar
salad presentation I’ve ever seen, that cute Hello Kitty ribbon made from bread
is just something sweet! Romaine lettuce with half boiled egg, grilled chicken,
Caesar dressing and cheese.
Kitty Sliders – IDR 85k
3 mini burgers (regular,
cheese and special Aioli sauce). My favorite is again the one with Aioli sauce,
the patty was not bad.
Hot Dog – IDR 75k (non-halal)
100% premium pork sausage
with fried egg, onion and lettuce.
Pinkwich – IDR 78k
Pink
Hello Kitty shaped sandwiches with egg salad filling. Say what? We need meat
lol.
Breakfast Platter – IDR 95k (non-halal)
One of
my favorite meals that I had on the lunch today, the pork sausage was so juicy
and flavorful with the right seasoning! Basically the platter consist of 2
baguettes filled with runny eggs (oh the eggs are yum too!), bacon bits,
sausages, chips, beans and vegetables!
Banana
Honey Waffle
Waffle
with banana slices and honey glaze
Waffle Fried Chicken – IDR 78k
Battered
fried chicken with Hello Kitty waffle and mozarella cheese.
Honey Brownies – IDR 78k
Brownies
with soft ice cream and honey chips aka honeycomb. The brownies had that spot
on gooey texture and without being overly sweet. The honeycomb was something I
fond of!
Assorted Cupcakes – IDR 35k/pieces, Sliced Cake –
IDR 68k/slice
Hello Kitty Donut – IDR 38k
Cute
af donuts but sadly not my favorite donut texture. It was too stiff for my
liking, well a good point for picture tho.
Brick Toast – IDR 88k
Fascinating
looking honey toast with soft serve, fresh fruits and honey glaze!
My favorite meal from their “Fill Your Tummy” section was actually the Nasi Goreng Gila (IDR 65k) but somehow I stupidly forgot to snap a pic. That’s the menu that you HAVE TO order when you’re here. Suprisingly very nice.
Bet
most of you are already itching to go, snap some pics and show them off on your
Instagram for your friends to be jealous about MWAHAHA! I have a good feeling
that this place will be freaking PACKED during the first day of opening, so
unless you wake up and go there early...well... REMEMBER THAT THE OPENING DATE IS MAY 18TH 2016 SO DON'T COME AT THE MOMENT, instead buy an itching powder because you need one LOL JK babes!
I was a bit skeptical about this cafe, judging from my
experience visiting the one in Bangkok, I must say that I was not exactly
impressed, but in the same time I didn't expect to be impressed or anything
else, that’s just the beauty of visiting cute cafes I think, probably because I
knew on the first place that I purely wanted to have fun, not to have serious
food, and besides, the food is not bad. BUT I must say that this particular
Hello Kitty outlet in Jakarta has better food comparing to the one in Bangkok
and this is based on my experience, so kudos to that!
WELCOME
and have a blissful success ahead!!!
