Well, for kelapa gading area this place might not be new. But for me, it's really new since kelapa gading isn't my area. But, i know Chicken Paikut for a long time since this is always popping up in my univ bazaar, everytime. Chicken Paikut is actually located at Citraland Mall, Supermall Karawaci, and last is Kelapa Gading. And the first restaurant concept is the one at Kelapa Gading. It's not really hard to find this place and it's all thank God to the technology we have!


For place, this isn't some kind of fancy place that you would meet in PIK or Senopati area. It's just a casual place for family or people who want to hang out in here. This place seated are around 40.


Combo 6 : Kungfu Chicken Rice + Cold Drink = IDR 30k
This kungfu chicken is really familiar for all of you who likely to eat in chinese restaurant. Kungfu Chicken is the other name of Kungpao Chicken, the one is sweet and savory flavor. I don't know why but this one is like the one in my favorite restaurant! I love the filling, their really generous! This is one of my recommended menu!


Burning Chicken Rice: IDR 28k
This is their new menu. The sauce is Spicy Mayo. But this one is different. When i dip the chicken in it, it's 'normal' spicy, but you get the burning aftertaste. And this is my favorite! Ps: this is might not be new if you read it on April or so.




Snowing Chicken Rice: IDR 28k
Unfortunately, this is my least favorite. Don't get me wrong, the sauce is cream cheese and i love the sauce and the chicken too! No doubt. But, when they get mix, it feels strange, especially if you eat it with rice. It doesnt blend well with the chicken. If this is the sauce that they use on pasta, i will super love this!



Yes, that's all for today review. No wonder everytime they are in bazaar, it will always crowded. Now i know why! Because they're so tasty, not to mention all of them are affordable! Having so much great time here, and i will definitely back soon to get all of them!

Well, it's not long ago since my last trip to Sushi Sen and now here it is japanese restaurant too, but this time, it's around Serpong. So, last week i just want to catch a coffee at Turning Point and suddenly there's a huge sign of congratulation flower board new in front of this place that i didn't familiar with before; so it must be new! At first we want to try to eat at this place but then, they say because it's still in a soft opening so they open from 5 p.m. Since i'm really curious about this place, just last saturday, i'm back again to eat at this place. Because it's no longer grand opening and they open from 11 a.m. Let's say that i'm really thrilled to find out there's japanese restaurant around serpong! Because here, you can't find that much japanese restaurant going around. Why? I still don't know, but here it is! This place is called Torigen. Torigen is owned by Altima Group, it's in one hand with Nanny's Pavilon, Wild Grass, and many more. Torigen located at Gading Serpong, in the shop house across Rumah Kayu Restaurant.



It's not really big as i expected. The first floor only provide 2 seat like this photo. And there's a bar too. One thing that it's really cool is, the chef cook in front of you. So you can watch the chef cook while you're waiting for your food.


I prefer the seated on the second floor, because it's more comfy and more a family type of seated. However, there's no sunlight as i need to take a photo of the food. But in the second floor, there's a place near the window but it's for the smoking room. I'm okay with the smoking room thing, but the waitress say that because there's only two people, he suggest just to eat on the first floor. Because on the smoking room thing they only have a 4 seated table and 8 seated table. But, I think i CAN eat wherever i want, but i just don't want to argue that much since i'm a little bit hungry. Beside, it's kinda fun seated on the bar because yes, you can see the chef cook in front of you LIVE! But, it's still such a bummer tho. Okay moving on!

So apparently everything, by i mean EVERYTHING are all really tempting! They have choices of Sushi, Udon, Don, Teishoku, Japanese Steak, and many more. So many choices, i know right? Enough talking let's just move on to the food!


Salmon Crispy Roll: IDR 55k
I kinda feels, this one is super decent. I just didn't feel about this sushi. It's great sushi, but i think something is missing. I don't like the rice that they use, it's like a usual rice. The salmon is great, but again, it feels really decent.




Aburi Salmon: IDR 35k
Again, i don't really feel this sushi as well. It's great but it feels really decent. I don't know, i think they are kinda slightly overcook, so it just crumble apart when you eat the salmon while i kinda expecting it's half raw.



Tamago Maki: IDR 29k



Salmon Steak: IDR 79k
(Grilled Salmon with Japanese Original Sauce)
I really love this salmon steak! It's not overcook, the sauce is great too. Geez, i'm having to much salmon in this meal, lol.




Hirekatsu Teishoku: IDR 85k
(Japanese set meal with fried tenderloin steak)
It's say in the menu that this is Chef Recommendation, so i expect this must be good! And, turns out, IT IS! The fried tenderloin omg, i could you not! So crispy yet so soft. I don't feel rubbery at all! The meat is really soft it's cut in just one bite. In this set meal, you get Miso soup, salad, and pickled radish. The miso soup is really miss the taste of the miso itself, i kinda expected more. But i just really appreciate the salad. Why? Because they just took care of the detail, like you have  your own sauce for the salad. I've never ever go to japanese restaurant where you can get salad sauce on the set meal, except if you order salad. And moreover, i'm such a salad lover! So this one is a thumbs up set meal! Recommended!

My two main favorite dishes in one picture <3

I will definitely go back to this place to eat the other Teishoku Meal. And i really curious for the Garlic Mayo Steak, geez! I'm drooling right now. But i don't think i'll order the sushi. I think we can relate, when you eat sushi in one place and it's really great, you just have a high expectation of the other sushi place. That's what i feel when i eat at this place. Thank you for reading!

We could really see how past this days there's so much gelato and ice cream traffic going around PIK. Latteria is the newest Gelato bar that open in PIK, precisely beside The Cup. You can easily notice this from the wood and black exterior and a huge sign of Latteria. So excited to find out this place, since i'm an ice cream and gelato junkie! Because since my last trip to Grom, i really want some gelato places open around near my house so i just can easily go get my gelato when i want it!


Yes, you can clearly feel the comfy out of this place because it's really well decorated and sooooooooo cozy!



And, can we admire this mural art wall? Geez, i think i have a special thing with mural art wall. I always find it as a touch up for an extra perfection! Okay enough talking, let's just see all this Gelato galore!


Did i mention that they have 20 flavors of gelato? Like really? 20? I just can't even pick 5 different flavors and yet they give me 20 options of flavors! I just can't. lol.



I don't know how they do it, but all of their flavors of gelato has unique name. Like Not So Complicated flavor, it's basically chocolate popcorn and peanut butter crunch flavor. And like Deez Nutz is basically hazelnut, chocolate, and nutella. I find it really hilarious!


For price, you get 2 scoops for IDR 38k and IDR 50k for 3 scoops. I mean, come on guys! It's not really expensive, instead it's really worth it!

Jack and Rose with Velvet Meringue: IDR 38k
Jack and rose is basically rose water and pistachio. Yes, you read that right! I can really feel the rose water and it's really good. Moreover the pistachio, it's not too sweet and balance well with the rose flavor. Velvet meringue is perfect for sweet lover like me! Basically, you can mix everything in here without thinking it's matching with this or that. All of them are perfect fit to each other!


Definitely will be go back and try more flavor! Thank you for reading!
