[REVIEW] Paul Patisserie Pacific Place Jakarta

Finally my exam is over and I finally could taste an internet again because my internet at home super sucks >.< 

Sooooooooooooooo I know I have been very lazy to update in this month and finally today I'll make another post.

I went to Paul Patisserie in Pacific Place Jakarta with my friend. We were so curious about this place because the hype was so high when this place opened for the first time so we decided to give it a try. 

Luckily we came at the right time. The restaurant was full when we came and we were the first in the waiting list. After waited for about 5 minutes finally we got our seat inside. Yeay!




 These are the display of their patisserie next to the cashier for those who wants to buy for take away. I can't take a lot of photos because it was crowded. 



In total, we ordered 2 cakes and 1 set. A lot? You gotta see by yourself. Because, I told ya, once you were there, it feels like you wanna try all they have. So here it is. 

1. Millefeuille Fraise
 IDR 50k (not inc. taxes and service charge) 

OMG!!! I LOVEEEEEE THIS CAKE so freaking much. For me this is the icon of Paul, the best from them. It looks so beautiful. I had to stared at it a few minutes until I finally ate it because it looks so good for my eyes. 



The pastry were so crunchy while and the filling tasted so fresh and not too sweet. I love it! Super Perfect combination. I love the sliced strawberry in the filling it makes the cake so balance and have the sour, sweet, crunchy, salty, and cold.

 My advice, you all HAVE TO try this then you know how nice this is. 

2. Tartelette Framboise
IDR 55k (not inc. taxes and service charge) 


It looks so beautiful too *cries*. The pie crust were too hard not crunchy so when you want to cut it you need to give a slightly more power. But the filling and framboise or raspberry were fine, super fine. Again, I love when fruit combines with pastry, it feels so fresh and it tasted so balance, it has all the flavor you can imagine you'll get from what it looks like. 

Oh, what I don't like from raspberry is they got some kind like fibrous thingy outside the fruit so I feel kinda disgust when I'm about to eat this. But the taste is great so.... Yeah LOL

3. Menu cafe Surprise 1
IDR 95k (not inc. taxes and service charge) 

The set consisted of:

a. a teapot of tea which you can choose what kind of tea you want and I chose Earl Grey


FYI, this tea is refill as much as you wish. Yeah! But the waiter said if you refill too much the taste would be plain. LOL. I know but it's refill as much as you wish sooooo I feel glad. HAHA

b. creme brulee 


I love how is tasted. But it wasn't fully caramelized at the top so it didn't look delicious, it looks kinda pale. 

c. Chocolate something (I forgot the name it's kinda like brownies)


When I was looking at their menu and saw this cake, it looks really nice and looks so tempting and we actually wanna ordered this single piece. But then, I found the menu set that this cake is included in that. So we ordered that set instead of the single piece. Unfortunately, the result didn't look as tempting as the picture is and the taste was so ordinary. For me, nothing really special about this cake. 

b. Macaroon 



These are they small macaroon, the one that cost around IDR 40k or more are the big macaroon. Both of them got different flavor.


Personally, I don't like macaroon. Seriously. I don't know why lol. The one that I ate is pineapple flavor. It's crispy outside but super soft in the inside. It's not too sweet too. But still, I don't like macaroon LOL ;)

Overall, I love this place, it's so comfy even tho it's quite crowded. I'm super in love with the pastry! Seriously, it's worth the price. Just perfect, melt in my tongue. I would definitely come back to try their main course because it looks super delish. 

So after we finished eating, we went around the mall and went back to Paul because I wanted to but it for take away. Guess what? It was getting more crowded than we were there before and the waiting list was surely got a lot of people. 

This is the box to take away


For addition, you also have to pay taxes if you want to but it for take away.

This is a must try place! Worth for every bite! I promise. Lemme know if you have tried this :)

Hello April!

March was so nice to me because I can finally watched Bruno Mars's concert! OMGGG I was soooooooo freaking happy, excited, and beyond amazed by this man :D I'll surely update about it later and if I am not lazy I'll update about the other concert that I've ever watched before. 

I hope April will be good to me too. Another wish from me is I'll be more diligent to upload this blog. 

I've been discussing with my friend what is the next restaurant that we should visit and give it a try. But I'll go after my exam is over. So, once again please wait for me :)
