Jani Journey Journal

Who doesn't have a thing with books and coffee? Even though I'm not a much coffee lover myself, I do love to hang out at a coffee shop, sipping my coffee while reading books for hours. Yes, not just an hour or two. I could sit alone in the coffee shop for 5 hours minimum. For what? Anything! Starting from doing my paperwork, blogging, editing pictures, meeting but my favorite activity there is reading. So can you imagined the moment I came into this coffee shop? Yes. I fall in love, instantly.

Bookopi is like a hidden gems since it is located at one of the Kalibata City Square Apartment. It wasn't easy for me and my friends to find this place since none of us were familiar with this particular area. But all of those sweat paid off when we found this place.

Banyak bungaaa bungaaa .......

I feel free .......

Mau tiduran disini dulu deh .......

Okay, enough with those Syahrini jokes about flowers. Move on to the second stop for that day, Clea Tea Bar & Lounge which filled with flowers and by flowers I means lots of flowers. Banyak bunga-bunga ....... Bunga-bunga .......

Located at the busy Kemang Raya, Clea Tea Bar & Lounge was probably the one who started the florist and cafe trend in Jakarta. We kinda have a hard time finding this restaurant. Probably because the sign board was a little bit small to be recognized when you were focus on driving your car or maybe the placement of the sign board was just not in the right place. From the outside you can tell that this cafe is spacious and made for girls because of the beautiful flowers display on the window.

As you all can see, I can never say no to food. Whoever ask me to come along, wherever they took me, whatever I'm going to eat, there's a 99% I will say yes to it. So when the Pergi Kuliner team asked me to go on a culinary trip (again) with them, you definitely know what I'm about to say.

We had another culinary trip on Sunday 17th of May 2015. This time we went to 9 different places to eat eat and eat. Yep! That's why I love food hunting with another foodie(s), they take food seriously and they really really LOVE food! Well ... the other foodies went to 10 places actually. I had to work on Sunday morning so I missed the first place they went. But no need to worry! Nine places in a day with them was amazing too. Now let's start with my first stop, Goni Coffee at Kemang.

Exploring Jakarta is so useless. You'll get stuck in a bad traffic that can cause you a major stress, you have to prepare some extra cash for your fuel since it's already wasted a lot in the traffic and don't forget the pain through your whole body after a long day in a narrow car. It's just useless. Is there any way to prove that exploring Jakarta (visiting some great place of interest) in one day is possible and not a waste of time?

If you followed my twitter account, you must be know that I won the weekly "Toyota My Agya My Style" competition. Happy? Super! I was never lucky if it comes about competition but this time I won. Well ... I was aiming for the bigger prize actually but I think this one was way much better than the main prize. What did I won exactly? A day off with fellow kind but crazy food bloggers accompanied by the awesome Toyota Agya. Once again thanks to Toyota, I met another food bloggers and we really really had so much fun that day.

Black House is located at Cililin Raya, Senopati. Actually it was a house later turned into a spectacular restaurant. I really do mean it when I said spectacular. Why? Because turns out every storey has a different theme with a special menu too. Unique isn't it? Before I begin to tell you about it, please mind the dark and blurry pictures as I was too lazy too edit the pictures. So let's begin ...
