[REVIEW] Pannacotta Etc. Pacific Place


Okaayyy, another round of review for dessert lol. This place is located in Pacific Place. I visited this place almost a month ago. Yea yeah yeah, I know, it's kinda late right but I've been busy with my homework. It's new semester and there is always a lot of homework. 

Before they opened a store in Pacific Place, you can only ordered their pannacotta via online. Thanks God they finally opened a store because if you order food online, the shipping cost will be very expensive especially food like this because they have to send the food by themselves, if they use usual shipping company, the food will be a mess.

This visit was planned, but it was still fifty-fifty whether me and my friend would go or not. Our intentions is to try Paul Patisserie. So after we tried Paul, which I'll post about it later, we went inside the mall for a window shopping. Then suddenly, we saw Pannacotta Etc! Before that I even already forget about it haha. My friend didn't want to eat this, so it's up to me. I was thinking from every side, economic side, fat side, and my full tummy side, LOL! So after I thought about it, in the end I ate it anyway, I can't hold my curiosity.

So, because I'm the only who was eating so I only ordered one. The flavor that I chose is Banana pannacotta with Hazelnut Choco. 

The presentation was amazing. It might looked big in the photo but it was actually small in real, the diameter of the pannacotta is like less than 10 cm. But the presentation is really cute, pretty and unique. It served on a cutting board, with a small box for the pannacotta and the small cup for the sauce. Actually they didn't only served pannacotta they also have some drinks like coffee. 

Banana Pannacotta with Hazelnut Choco around IDR 30k

Anyway, I love the sentence! "The seduction Begins Here". LOL. Not in the pervert meaning but I love how they chose the words. I think the words is the first reason why I chose this flavor LOL. 


Pour the sauce to the pannacotta...


And voila! Here you go...


You know, when you make something from banana, the texture from the banana will still be there. So does with this pannacotta. When you bite the pannacotta, it didn't feel soft and smooth, it felt slightly rough from the banana's texture itself. But the taste was pretty good. At first, it tasted a bit weird, but after a few mouthful, it tasted pretty nice to be honest. 

The chocolate was perfect! The balance for sweetness when it combined with the pannacotta is amazing! It suited perfectly. You just can't let it left over even just a sip. Overall, I'm quite satisfied with this visit.

Oh! Another thing is definitely about price :) I think that the price is pretty expensive because the portion is kinda small. 

But if you can't hold my curiosity like me, there's always money and space for food and beverages. Besides, it's not a sin to try something new! ;)

[REVIEW] Green Tea Roll Rati-Rati


I actually visited Rati-Rati almost a month ago lol but yeah I finally get a chance to write a post about it now *a bit shy HAHAHA. If you want to go to this place, you have to search for it closely because the name's board is really small and the place from outside looks kinda dark.

This visit was unplanned. Me and my friend actually just wanted to go for a dinner but yeah, our tummy didn't agree LOL. Anyway, why did I only choose the green tea roll? Because after me and my friend had our dinner, we want some dessert but we can't eat a lot again, our tummy already full enough but we still want some sweet things so we chose Rati-Rati, and besides my friend wanted to buy it for take away. 

 Green Tea Roll Cake around IDR 38k inc. tax


When I was looking at the display, my eyes definitely went to green tea so we ordered that. Tbh, I had a high expectation about how it would taste, because people were talking about it and this restaurant is quite famous. But, in the end, it only felt enough satisfied.

The ice cream and crunchy was standard, nothing really special. You can choose the ice cream flavor, there are vanilla and chocolate, that's what I remembered LOL. The roll was perfectly made, it was soft and I liked that. But the problem is the taste of the green tea. It had the same taste with the green tea powder that I bought in a cooking store to make my green tea cookies. Perfectly the same! I was like, geezzzzz. 

But for you who never tasted that green tea powder, it was nice! Super nice I'm telling you, it really smells good makes you want to eat it ASAP. So does the taste, really really delicious, it had a strong taste of green tea. I would love it if I hadn't taste it before. 

The bomb part for me was the filling. They combined it, which I thought is a whipped cream, with red bean in it and it came out really good. I really really love it. Not too sweet, and just perfectly match <3

When you want to eat this, or any other flavor, I advice you to eat it with a bite of the roll + the filling don't forget, the ice cream and the crunchy! Parfait :)

Now, about the price it's kinda insane to set that price for only a roll cake. But, I think you won't regret it to give it a try! ;)

Pray For MH370

There is nothing you can do when any kinds of disaster come to you. All you can is to pray, believe in God, and stay positive! 

Same like this accident. My deep condolences to all of the passenger's family of Malaysia Airlines MH370. 

The plane bounded to Beijing, China from Kuala Lumpur. But lost contact after about 2 hours take off. 

This is the route: 

From nydailynews.com

Until now, there are no news and the plane's body still yet disappear. The scariest thing is there are two passengers on board that are using stolen passport. So, the probability of terrorism is increasing. Geezzzzz, it gives me goosebumps T_T 

The plane is carrying 239 passengers and crews. The searching team found an oil spills and some strange things in two different places that suspected belongs to MH370 or at least lead us to the plane's location, but there are no official confirm and the test is still on going.

From nydailynews.com 

Malaysia Airlines is one of the most safety airlines in the world and Boeing 777 is the most safety planes people ever made. So it's super damn strange right?!
From nydailynews.com 

Another scary thing is a family relatives of a Chinese passengers called the passengers and, it connected! But no one answered! It means they are not in the damn plane right? Oh my God i got another goosebumps!

Can I say this, that I kinda sure that it's a terrorism case. I meant hell no logic if one of the most safety airplanes and plane suddenly out of the radar and in the middle of nowhere now. But yeah, like what I said before, stay positive friends! 

I do really hope the searching team will find something even just a slight little thing that leads us to the location of this planes so their family relatives also know what exactly happened to their family. T___T 

Hope everything is all right, no bad news, and take care of yourself!!
