.Kin no Taki, Citraland.

.Dori Fish Teriyaki. Jagabata. Sanchu. Spicy Tori Teriyaki.

I am not a fan of Japanese Cuisine, ever. So no comment for this one, folks.

.27 September 2008.

Rescue Down, menceritakan tentang kisah nyata seorang tentara bernama Dieter Dengler yang di tahan oleh tentara Laos. Ya intinya tentang bagaimana dia membebaskan diri dari sana de...gue pribadi agak bingung dengan kameranya, kadang framenya kaya film lama di TPI, kadang kaya film king kong, jadi naek turun kualitas warna tiap scenenya. Yang pasti nga cocok d tonton bagi yang agak2 geli kalok ngeliat lintah, cacing, ular...

Akhirnya gue ntn film yang ok minggu ini. Cerita soal 10 anak SD di Belitung, keliatannya agak2 berjiwa iklan layanan masyarakat ya? Menarik dan jelas mengajarkan banyak hal. Menurut gue malahan lebih enak ditonton bareng2 orang dewasa, karena nilai2 yang diajarkan lebih kena ke arah orang2 dewasa.

Digarap oleh para nama2 besar di dunia perfilman Indonesia, jadi jaminan kalau masuk Box Office [Indonesia]. Tapi gue jga salut melihat aktor2 pendatang barunya, mainnya lepas :) Gue jg suka cara Riri Riza capturing keindahan Belitung, interesting :)

Buat gue sendiri sih, terlihat film ini jelas lebih matang ketimbang film2 Indonesia yng biasanya memunculkan setan2an or cewe2 ABG [menurut gue cewe2 ABG lebih mengerikan ketimbang setan2 itu -__-] walau jelas menurut gue masih belum bisa mengalahkan Arisan, Berbagi Suami, Ayat-ayat Cinta, tapi masuk jajaran film Indonesia yang gue suka.

.One Thing About The Girls.

Hari ini,

gue harus berjuang melewati kerasnya dunia para prempuan.







*sigh*
saya benci perubahan mood diri saya maupun prempuan lainnya ketika sedang saatnya :|

.22 September 2008.

hmmm..sebenernya ude ntn minggu2 lalu, well anyway it was not bad actually,cm kurang greget kali ya? I definetely would say Keanu Reeves or other actor to play on Nic's role. I love Nicholas Cage but i dont think he is suit enough with this role, and plus can you change your hair-do Nic? you looked balder in that gondrong style... :|

Anyway, weekend kemaren cukup menyenangkan, having lots of deviants gathering at Delemos Cafe, it was awesome guys. After that, me with few friends headed to Hollywood KC to watch Jessica Alba's latest movie - Awake.

Durasi filmnya cukup pendek, ya bagus jga sih secara ntn midnight dan mata gue ude 5 watt gituh..hmmm apa ya, cukup menarik mengisahkan tentang seorang cowo yang selama di bedah ternyata masi melek secara proses anastesi [pembiusan] kurang berjalan dngan baik. Sedikit mudah di tebak kali ya,..

Setelah ntn,kita menikmati malam a la anak2 gaul Jakarta, dengan nongkrong di Sarinah. sempet sebelahan ama Irwansyah ama Acha, ihh mukanya Irwansyah bete banget pas temen gue nitip nampan di meja dia, secara meja kita lagi d bersihin. Ternyata acha nga kinclong2 amat ya? :D

Ya anyway weekend kemarin menyenangkan walau sempat mati lampu seharian di hari Minggu -__- hari yang panas...tapi malamnya sempet makan ayam bakar 7 Saudara favorit gueeeee :D

Semua orang yang ke Teluk Gong pasti gue ajak makan di sini...hehehehe..Cabenya itu loh nga nahan bo...

Dan sekarang hari Senin, saatnya kembali bekerja :|

.19 September 2008.

Saya benci.














orang-orang yang kelewat sensitif,

tapi nga peka sama sekali.

.Ya Kun Kaya Toast, Mega Mall.

Present, my favourite all the time snacks :) i called it snacks, the portion was too small if i want to called it a meal :-"

.French Toast with Kaya and Cheese. Yuanyang . Chocolate and Peanut Butter Toast.

Anyway last night after dinner, i tried their new menu, Chocolate and Peanut Butter Toast, it tasted so so. But I alwaaaaaayysss love their Kaya :) yummy!

.Warung Ayam Betutu Gilimanuk, Pluit.

I had dinner last night at Warung Ayam Betutu Gilimanuk, located at Pluit. They have 2 separated areas, for indoor and outdoor. Since it's still noon and the indoor area was full, so i took the outdoor area. Too bad i had the wrong choice, they're few flies around us, waiting for opportunity to sit down and relax on our dinner. hehehe, so i've learned that always trust the crowd :) At least the atmosphere at outdoor was more relaxing, the Bali traditional music was played during our meal :)

. Bebek Betutu. Ayam Betutu. Sate Lilit. Pelecing Kangkung.

About the food, we ordered Ayam Betutu(22 / 24K, i forgot ) and Bebek Betutu and Sate Lilit (each 2,5K) . When it served, it looks like a steamed chicken with soto. A lil bit too salty and hot for me, but they tasted ok. The sate lilit tasted like pork :D sweet and chewy :) Anyway they only served that 3 menus :( huhuhuh more menus please...

This restaurant also sells traditional snacks from Bali, like Kacang Disco dll. Maybe i'll come back later for their snacks :)

.Noodle Cafe, Taman Anggrek.

Last weekend, me and my family had a family photoshoot. Been so long since our last family photoshoot, i guess it was on 1996 or else, totally forget. Well anyway, after that i headed to Noodle Cafe, at Taman Anggrek.

.Popiah. Fried Macaroni with Seafood. Gyoza. Fried Seafood Spaghetti with Tauco Sauce. Thai Iced Tea.

One thing about this resto is their interior, the wall is decorated with lots of noddle, from different types and colors. Too bad their service wasnt that good, we have to wait a lil bit longer for our order. but I always love their tauco sauce spaghetti :) although the rest of menus was so so, but it's ok lahhh :)

.Wild Wild Resto, Pluit Junction.

.Spaghetti Bolognaise. Nachos with Guacamole. Hainan Chicken Rice.

This is a new restaurant located at Pluit Junction. I always thought this restaurant was a lil bit ridiculous, since the fact that their name is Wild Wild Resto, but i dont find anything's wild from this resto. maybe i can define 'wild' as 'freely-campur-aduk-interior-as-you-wish', perhaps? the interior was so confusing, it mixed the game station interior [located just beside this resto] and chinese story [Sun Go Kong statue, etc] and Jungle atmosphere [?]. And i dont get anything of them related to imitate sakura flowers that filled the ceiling.

Ya anyway, their menu was quite impressing, they claim themselves served different cuisine from many countries. but most of them wasnt available yet, like the pizza menus, steak menus, etc. so what's left? Indonesian cuisine :| interesting huh?

Maybe i'll be visiting this resto later, after their menu has been completed.

.15 September 2008.

So, last week has been stressed me so much, and this week will be a whole lot better in stressing my mind too ..ya anyway enough about my job. Last week at least i’ve watched 3 different movies.

Story about a girl who spend her summer holiday in Idaho, at her grandmother’s place. She hates her grandmother, just the way she hates her mom, and so does her mom to her grandmother. Well, this movie is about family and the truth between them, kinda amusing for weekend though.

The second movie i watched last week was Smart People. Definetely a must seen movie, it’s funny, cute and cynical in the same way. The script itself is really interesting, it used lots of hard-understanding english words and phrase, and the humour is slipped from them,so it’s not another lousy slap stick humour i much seen in lots of funny movies lately. One thing i dont like about this movie, Sarah Jessica Parker. I mean, i love her in Sex and The City, but i guess she doesnt fit in this character, IMHO.
And the last movie i watched last week was Hell Boy 2 : The Golden Army. Well, i am not a fan of hell boy, and i havent watched their previous movie. Well, the script and the idea behind it, are so so for me, maybe because i am not a fan of superhero movie, except for X-Men. Anyway, their special effect, as been said by the trailer, it has been done by the same person who did Pan’s Labyrinth. So, the special effect is so much looked alike Pan’s Laybrinth. Interesting :)

I also finished House Season I and now i'm watching Desperate Housewives Season 3 :P well my life wasnt complete if I hadn't tons of dvd to watch huh? :)

well, catch up on you later, i'm back on track again :) adios people!

.Shame.

i feel ashamed...







of myself.

i want to close my mouth.
i want to close my mind.
i want to close my heart.

and keep it in a book.





that no one could read.

.Lotus Restaurant, Pluit.

So, yesterday i went to this restaurant for lunch. Located at Komplek Carina Sayang II, Jembatan III, Pluit. They only served several dishes, and the most famous is their Mie Udang Singapore.

.Jeruk Kietna. Mie Udang Singapore.

Mie udang ini, seperti namanya, yang menjadi poin utamanya adalah udangnya, sampai ke kaldu2nya semua beraroma udang. Jelas menu ini harus dicoba untuk penggemar seafood terutama udang :) Dilengkapi dengan kangkung, gorengan babi, serta sepotong daging babi di dalam mienya :) Yang juga saya sukai di sini adalah opaknya, pedas dan manis. Sayangnya ukurannya kelewat besar dan 1 bungkus terdiri dari 5-6 lembar opak, jadi agak kebanyakan kalok buat makan berdua :) Di sini juga menjual Jeruk Kietna, minuman yang dibuat dari selai jerut kietna, jadi selai nya dimasukkan ke dalam air hangat/dingin, mirip2 seperti sirup deh tp bentuknya selai , rasanya? menurut saya sih mirip Kiamboy. Selai Jeruk Kietna ini juga dijual loh di sini :)

Satu hal yang cukup saya sayangkan dr resto ini adalah menunya yang sedikit, hanya sekitar 6 menu. Dan mie kangkung uda nga ada dalam daftar menunya huhuhuhu...

.Ichiban Sushi, Citraland.

...saya berhasil menemui teman saya, tepat pada waktunya. [-menjawab blog sebelumnya]

Anyway, semalam saya mencoba kembali Ichiban Sushi setelah sekian lama nga makan di sini. Berdasarkan pengalaman terakhir yang kurang memuaskan, ternyata ada perbaikan. Servicenya masih agak lelet, tapi dr segi taste sushinya ya not bad, walau nga seger2 banget. Makanan di sini yang selain sushi, menurut saya pribadi sih agak kurang dr segi rasa, walau penampilannya cukup cantik.

Saya cukup suka pilihan fusion sushinya, karena saya bukan penggemar Japanese food, jadi kalau makan yang authentic japanese food kayanya agak kurang cocok. Anyway, pilihan fusion sushi di sini, tidak lah seperti Poke Sushi ataupun Sushi Groove yang agak2 mirip semua [ada gorengan di dalamnya, dibungkus nori, mirip2 pokoknya]. Di resto ini, pilihannya agak bermacam2 serta harga yang cukup terjangkau pula, jadi ya cukup menyenangkan untuk pemula dalam Japanese Cuisine seperti saya :)

.Centro Roll. Beef Teppayanki. Sunflower.

My favourite menu from last night dinner was Sunflower, ini adalah sushi yang di dalamnya berisi unagi, crab stick, cucumber, serta diberi sauce. Saucenya kental seperti madu, rasanya juga cukup manis, tapi saya kurang tau sauce apa ini.

Well anyway, selain Ichiban Sushi, saya juga sempet mencoba gerai snack yang baru di Citraland, namanya Cireng Keraton. Gerainya terletak di dekat KFC Citraland lt 4, cukup murah sepotong Cireng dijual dengan harga 3rb.

Cireng adalah makanan cemilan dr Bandung, sering ada di tukang2 gorengan di pinggir jalan, berwarna putih, kenyal dan liat. Sebatas itu pengetahuan saya soal Cireng, tp kemaren melihat hasil masakan gerai ini, cukup berbeda ternyata dari bayangan saya.

Cirengnya berwarna agak coklat muda, dr luar seperti pastel, tapi kenyal seperti roti Nan dari India. Dalamnya diisi dengan berbagai macam isi, mulai dari Baso pedas, Pizza, Teriyaki, Keju, dll. Dr semuanya, yang paling enak di lidah sih yang rasa Pizza dan Teriyaki. Sayang saya nga sempet motoin Cirengnya, keburu diembat orang2 rumah begitu pulang hehehe..Tapi sempet google and nemu link fotonya.

Yah segitu aja kayanya info acara kemaren. Seharian ini akan sibuk dengan kerjaan yang berjubel2 ria...

.03 September 2008.

So, i'm so sleepy today.

Gara2nya semalam kumpul2 di studio. berbekal kertas folio dan pen di tangan, segelas air di depan saya, musik yang mendayu di telinga, serta kepulan asap di sekeliling saya, membuat otak saya berjalan lancar, sayangnya tidak didukung dengan fisik yang aerodinamis. Catatan yang berantakan, tawa yang semakin riang, keringat yang sudah mengering, serta kantuk yang merayap akhirnya mengakhiri malam itu.

Malam semakin merayap menuju pagi, saya kembali tidak memejamkan mata, mengingat kejadian2 lucu tadi, mengingat senyuman kawan-kawan yang manis, every little things that happen :) Mata pun mulai terpejam.

Paginya, hari ini di kantor, kembali berdiri di depan dispenser, mengisi gelas dengan air panas, mencoba membangkitkan semangat dengan segelas teh susu. Dering telepon dr bos yang mengatakan akan mengadakan meeting 2 jam lagi, membuat hari semakin sibuk. Kepala penuh dengan gambaran photoshoot weekend ini, serta perancangan sistem project kantor. Kemudian ingat harus menelepon beberapa teman, ada yang baru nembak cewe, ada yang harus di add ym nya, ada yang harus dkirimin file2 nya, dan hal hal remeh temeh lainnya.

Mulai menggoggle non stop, kutak katik browser, hapus cookies dan history, trial and error blablabla. Done, cukup beres juga. Tapi begitu diinject di aplikasi, kok nga jalan ya? frustasi mulai melanda.

Melihat jam dinding, jam 14.45. Perasaan tadi ditelepon jam 09.30 pagi, kapan meetingnya? hayah.....









Jam 17.30 ada janji bertemu teman untuk membeli property buat moto. oh akankah saya berhasil menemuinya?

.September Starts.

......with lots of good news :)

i had my great family to support anything in my life.
i had my dream job to do.
i had my baby to express my feeling lately.
i had my first commercial shot.



well,although it's not the perfect one,
Still i love my life, thank you Lord so much for my great life :)



PS. hopefully i'll meet the right one soon, i want to share this happiness together :)

.Kelor Island, Kepulauan Seribu, 2008.

.Last August Weekend.

So, my weekend was great. My mum cooked my favourite dish, my friend came for a visit, and i got plenty of comics to read. well, maybe you can call my life's perfect for a while hehehe..

Anyway, sempat menonton 2 film juga.

The Ruins, based on a novel by Scott Smith. Sedikit nga jelas ceritanya, baru mulai jelas setelah film berjalan 1/2 nya. Cukup menjijikan bila ditonton di kala sedang makan ayam goreng [i dit it, sedikit ilfil tp lanjut makan duonks hehehe]. Adegan berdarah2nya nga sevulgar SAW sih, jadi ya agak2 nanggung jga :)

Seducing Mr. Perfect, film ini sih sebenrnya gue ude ntn, cm secara gue kangen ngeliat muka Daniel Henney, terakhir liat dia di My Father yang mengharu biru. Film ini sih nga membuat berurai air mata darah kaya film2 korea lain, dibilang lucu pun nga lucu2 banget, tapi saya suka lagu2nya dan wadrobe di film ini, serta penggunaan kamera yang bole di bilang ala film Asia banget, plus ada Daniel Henney, ya cukup menjual juga sih :)

Anyway, weekend kemaren nga sepenuhnya menyenangkan juga sih. Minggu malam, gue sempet muntah2 and pusing banget, masuk angin kali ya? hehehe....

Well, skrang ude mau jam makan siang. got to go. ciao.

XOXOXOXO

PS. selamat menunaikan ibadah puasa bagi yang melaksanakannya ya :)
