A sudden thunderstorm, luckily, Sop Buntut (Indonesian oxtail soup) kept me company.

Deeply Indonesian — salty, sweet, and unapologetically oily.
Not my style at all.
But Indonesian cappuccino? I actually like it. Less foam, more coffee aroma.

Kacang Lurik / Kacang Batik — a local Indonesian peanut with beautiful stripes, resembling the patterns of traditional batik textiles.
Richer in flavor than regular peanuts, thanks to its higher oil content.

Soto Iga Bakar Betawi
— my favourite Indonesian dish.
Grilled beef rib served in a coconut-milk broth layered with Southeast Asian spices.
It usually comes with emping melinjo — slightly bitter, light, and perfect on the side.

somehow jp drip coffee is… pure bitter, dark, with diluted body. even their light roasted beans dont have tastenotes and aroma i expected. i guess fruity coffee arent their taste? in the end i just resorted to konbini coffee because the taste isnt much different 😭
