Canteen - revisit

Sunday brunch is a lovely moment for relaxing and enjoying a pleasant meal to start a lazy weekend day for us.. E took me out to have a brunch in Canteen Plaza Indonesia.. Yup, we revisit Canteen to try their brunch menus..


We found that the ambiance here is more comfy and relaxed in the midday than at nite.. Since we didn't enjoyed the ambiance here on our last visit, the place was so packed and all people seemed so busy.. It was not comfy at all..


My brother told me that their Spaghetti aglio olio is so nice, so E tempted to give it a try.. Spaghetti Chicken Aglio Olio (45K), sauteed spaghetti with chicken chunks and chili padi in olive oil.. Loved the simplicity of the dish and how it could end up being so delicate.. The chicken cooked nice and the spaghetti was just done so rite..


I had this Big Breakfast (65K), a complete set of eggs (scrambled, poached, or sunny side up, mine is scrambled obviously), crispy bacon, German sausage, sauteed mushroom, roasted potatoes, baked beans, and hot toasty buttered breads.. Everything was good about this, except the scrambled egg was a bit dry for my liking, and I especially like juicy sausage.. Really a fulfilling meal..

We enjoyed the brunch here and Canteen has become one of our fave brunch spot now.. hehe..

Loewy - revisit

We've been to Loewy before for a dinner, but we never try their brunch.. Yup.. It was a lovely brunch @ Loewy.. We are not always have a time for brunch, but we really enjoy the brunch menu sometime..


The interior of the bistro with its high ceiling and beautiful white brick walls was designed to bring a New York style bistro atmosphere.. Such a nice ambiance to enjoy your meals..


We promptly seated at this gorgeous little terrace by overlooking the building's front yard..


It was really refreshing to start your day with a glass of fresh juice.. This was a Guava Juice (20K), this is the real 100% juice made from guava..


I was prefer something sweets for my brunch, so this Pancake (65K) would be a great choice, I choosed blueberry pancakes which came with maple syrup, sausage and fresh fruits.. There are three choices of pancakes that you can choose; plain, blueberry, or dark chocolate chips.. Not only that, you also can choose either sausage or bacon.. It was simple and such an enjoyable meal..


And E opted a complete 2 Eggs Any Style Breakfast Menu (40K), 2 scrambled organic eggs comes with sausage, hash brown, and whole wheat toast.. Yup, you can choose any style of egg you like; fried sunny side up, hard boiled or soft, scrambled or poached.. And do you like sausage or beef bacon? It's all your choice.. The dish was fulfilling, E said the sausage was great and he enjoyed the rest as well..

Maybe some people would say that the price here is pricey, but we would say, quality comes with a price rite? hehe..I definitely recommend the brunch lovers to check out this place..

Social House - revisit

Back to SoHo (Social House) again, I just noticed that I've been here twice in short time.. Simply because I like their ambiance, I like the way they deco the place.. Cozy and comfortable...


On last Sunday midday, we managed to have brunch here...


E ordered Eggs Benedict (55K) with crispy turkey bacon and added an extra Crispy Pork Bacon (20K)..


And I just ordered this Truffle Scrambled Egg (60K) and added an extra Roasted Mushroom (13K).. This scrambled egg was fluffy and I love their roasted mushroom..


After finished our brunch, we moved to their lounge to enjoy Sunday afternoon plus this cocktail Lily on The Valley (25K), it's a mixed fruit (slices of melon, lychee, and sunkist orange) with a fresh yogurt.. So refreshing..


And we were lucky to have a corner spot to view Bundaran HI (Thamrin) scenery with a windy weather

On the whole, I love this place!

Social House

Last Sunday afternoon, I arranged to meet up two of my old frenz @ SoHo - Social House is located inside Harvey Nichols at Grand Indonesia..


Many variations of menu


The interior is cozy and spacious..


Great ambiance.. Its cool place to hang out..

Ice Cappuccino (25K)

My friend J ordered Eggs Benedict Ham (55K) - Two Eggs benedict over butter toasted bread, cook ham and melted mozzarella cheese, served with sauteed mushroom, bacon, and veggie..


My other friend C, she really loves creamy pasta, so she opted Beef Tortellini (75K), tortellini stuffed with beef served with butter and creamy sauce.. She really enjoyed it..


As I was still full from my breakfast, so I just ordered a small plate Braised Tofu (40K) - steamed silk tofu in shoyu sauce topped with bonito flakes.. Its tasted slightly too salty to me..

The atmosphere is cool, the food is wise... It's a good place to chill out with your frenz and family
