One time on my early blogging days, an online shop approached me on email wanting to send me their products, I agreed, the goodies got delivered and they were one of the best molten chocolate cakes I've ever had, and soon enough I grew my love for DCL Cake, or currently better known as Moivel Cakes.
No celebration and no cakes but there are hopes.

Seriously? I have been blogging for four years, I look back and I have written 618 articles and taken countless pictures, man that's a lot of arm and hand work out I should be losing weight, instead I've gained 24 pounds in total *food bloggers first world problems*, but seriously, what matters most is being happy and I can say that even though I have been busy all these times, but I am a state where I am happy, I am highly grateful for everything that I have achieved, and I couldn't have done it without you and I mean it from the very bottom of my heart.
More and more coffee shops! Keep them coming!

Recently, I went to this newly opened coffee shop and cafe in Kelapa Gading which I believe is going to be the talk of the town anytime soon: Portafilter Coffee Artisan. The coffee shop is strategically located near Rumah Sakit Gading Pluit (Gading Pluit hospital).
I find it hard to believe that Talita Setyadi launched BEAU two years ago, I literally went to check their Instagram and the brand was first established back in late 2014 around this time and followed by the first BEAU store in Plaza Indonesia a couple of months after. Time is scarily flying faster that it probably should hmm.
Two weeks ago, I was invited by Menumbing Heritage hotel Bangka to come to their grand opening reception together with several media and blogger friends. It was a very short visit (2 day 1 night) but packed with activities, also a much needed respite I say, and here I am sharing the experience to you, as well as why I think Menumbing Heritage is the hotel you should consider a home of yours when travelling to Bangka.
