Makan ini hari Kamis kemarin.. Letaknya di belakang RS Mitra Sunter, dekat portal kompleks Sunter Indah.. Modelnya warung tenda gitu, pas paralel dengan kali Sunter.
Juaranya disini adalah buntut bakar. Benar-benar enak banget dan by far, the best buntut I've ever tasted. Sebelumnya the best buntut menurut saya ada di Sidoarjo, dekat toko Tanjung.. Rasanya, terutama buntut gorengnya, mak nyuss banget.. Borobudur aja lewaatt.. hihih.. Tapi skrg Sidoarjo lewat jg deh begitu ngerasain ini.. wuah.. ndak bisa diceritakan kata2.. haha hiperbola deh gw..
Eniwei, buntut bakar di Ibu Henni ini rasanya agak pedas, tapi bumbunya menyerap sampai ke dalam dan juicy banget.. Kuahnya pun pas, ngga eneg, dan spicy..
Mereka buka mulai jam 6 sore, tapi mendingan buru-buru karena cepat sekali terjual habis.. Kemarin kami dateng jam 7.30 udah dag dig dug takut kehabisan.. tapi untungnya masih kebagian ransum ;-)
Will definitely dateng lagi... Biar jauh, teteuupppp akan dijalani.. hehehe..
Coba deh, dijamin ngga nyesell...

It is located somewhere in the corner of Petaling Street, KL's Chinatown. Just walk through the line yang sempit dan panas (tapi bikin mata segar karena yang dijual seru2.. hihi), nanti di ujungnya ada si ikan panggang ini.
We had to wait for half an hour untuk merasakan ikan panggang (kami pesan ikan pari, ikan kue, kerang dan cumi), saking penuhnya tempatnya, dan orderannya banyak banget..
Tapi rasa bete karena menunggu setengah jam itu langsung hilang begitu si ikan dan teman-temannya datang.. Oh la la.. So juicy, tasty dan pedasnya passs.. Truly an exquisite local dish..
Jadi mereka masaknya itu ikannya disiram bumbu, dibungkus daun pisang, dibungkus aluminium foil, lalu dibakar langsung di atas bara api..
Hasilnya.. wualah... uenakkkeee :P
Will definitely go there again kalo ada kesempatan mengunjungi KL lagi..

Baru selesai baca hari ini.. Keren banget.. Awesome ending for Potter.. Banyak fakta yang terungkap, dan itu membuat ceritanya berjalan seru, saking serunya saya baru tidur jam 3 tadi malam, itupun tidur dengan perasaan deg2an yang belum selesai, tidurnya jg dipaksakan, kalo ngga bisa telerr.. :-)
Buku ini bercerita tentang klimaks petualangan Harry Potter dkk on their last mission, finding the remaining of Voldermort's pieces of souls, called the horcruxes.. But along the way, they found strange facts that eventually lead them to the so-called Deathly Hallows.. Apa itu Deathly Hallows? Baca sendiri.. hehe
Menurut saya, buku ini lebih ngeri dari yang sebelumnya, banyak yang mati krn Voldemort (many of those were close to Potter), banyak perang, bercerita tentang kematian, dan I certainly wouldn't recommend this untuk dibaca anak2.. Stelah buku ke-3 memang HP rada2 gelap critanya dan creepy gitu..Tapi seru lah..
Yang saya bingung, gimana cara translatenya nanti ke film ya? Kayanya bakal susah deh secara imajinasi kita benar2 bermain di buku ini..
Pokoke, awesome, marvelous dan jangan dilewatkan..

Setelah beberapa bulan absen, akhirnya kami ke Surabaya lagi, selama anak libur.. Dan finally hari ini saya makan ikan bakar Bamara (take away siy, makan di kantor suami, soale ada bayi dan ga tega ninggalin.. :-)) Ga tau perasaan saya aja, atau emang bener, rasanya kok makin oke lha..
Dibakarnya pas, juicy sampai ke dalam dan sambal mangganya makin segar..
Hm.. ga rugi deh makan Bamara.. Kebetulan td belinya jg lama banget, ternyata kata orang kantor yg beli, pengunjungnya buanyak banget..
Jadi krn rasanya hari ini enak banget, I added one more star ke si ikan bakar ini.. Latest review kan 4 bintang, skrg jadi 5 deh.. hihi..

Like a midnite attack, slowly yet calculated, they managed to suck you into their vortexes. When you are snuggling comfortably in their traps, they will then inform you subtly, “Actually, do you mind if I am still in a relationship with another person?” And before you could utter a single word, they would continue, “Oh it’s a rocky one, I’ve had it with her since forever and I think I am going to drop her very soon.” Alas, these types. With questionable motives, they want you around. And the ultimate draw was the fact that they never leave the other person. Ever.

I've never planned to be a home wrecker in my life. Until I was faced with limited options in encountering such behaviors: Shall I let him go (in which he was already dear to my heart) or shall I pretend that I am okay with all of these (in which I am so not ok of course)? Once I made that choice nearing the end of last year, I asked him to leave the other person and submitted to my request he did. The relationship didn’t go very well, because I knew from the beginning: The wants factors had won over the needs of my fragile heart and mind.

Another encounter of the same types not too long ago, but at least this person just wanted to have sex without wining and dining me. Of course he had to leave me with the phrase, “Look I am not promising anything, I am still in a relationship” Like, duh, why didn’t you tell me this previously and as iffff, whoeva was hoping for anything anyway! Well, maybe my face gave it out. I might act like I just need him for the (great) sex. But my face, he might’ve seen the longings that I had for him. To be closer to him.

Darn, I am such a sucker for romance.

And now this. How dare you tell me right upfront that you are still wondering about the sexuality your newfound –cute- friend? All that when you are still unclear of what do you want to do with your current –rocky- one? With how many person(s) do I have to compete to win your heart siy? Suddenly it hit me. Oh yes, you are a catch and I think you know it well. But are you still worthy of catching my time, my attention and my affection?

Oh God, what have I done in the past to deserve all these bastards? They came in various shapes and sizes, usually in some very nice packaging. So, are you my dear, another bastard?

This is actually written by someone named (or nicknamed) Amarna. I took it from my sister in law's blog, which she also took from her friend, the author. I like this article so much for its funny yet cynical content. Jadi Can, aku borrow dari blogmu bole ya? Hehe..

Satu kata.. Enakkk.. hehehe
Warung ini terletak di pinggir jalan raya Waru, deket terminal Purabaya, Bungurasih.. Ramenya minta ampunn.. Banyak yang antri..
Rasanya sendiri, enak, kikilnya empuk, kuah bening, dan ngga eneg makannya.. kalo kikil padang gitu kan dicampur santan lagi, jadi kadang2 ampe begah makannya.. Kalo ini seru lah..
Makannya ngga pake nasi, tapi pake lontong.. Makin seru, bukan? :-)
Harganya juga ngga nyakitin, 1 porsi sup kikil dan lontong 8000 saja..
Surabaya memang surganya makanan euy... :-)

This is the best ikan bakar restaurant I've ever been into.. Their main course is ikan bakar pake sambel mangga.. Kalo menurut saya sih ikannya ikan patin, cuma menurut suami ikannya ikan gurame.. hehe..

Never had the chance to ask around or taking any pic since the restaurant was packed .. People waited in line just to be seated, and since it's Christmas day, for me it's quite amazing that there could be a queue, considering most people are at home, or just cruising the mall..

Anyway, the resto's not located in the city of Purwodadi, it's on jalan Purwodadi, Surabaya. Somewhere near Darmo kalo ngga salah.. Agak jauh kedalam.. Situated inside a housing complex, quite difficult to find for outsiders like me.. Besides grilled fish, they also serve ketupat, ayam goreng and several cuisines original from Kalimantan..

Ikan bakarnya diorder per-potong, jadi bisa pilih bagian kepala, tengah atau ekor. Ukurannya lumayan besar, dan mengenyangkan.. Ngga tau gimana cara bakarnya, pokoknya jadinya ikannya harum bumbu dan dagingnya manis segar gitu.. Sambal mangganya pas banget buat saya, ngga pedes2 amat, tapi asemnya pas, seger banget..
Kita pesan minumnya es beras kencur.. My first time ever order a jamu for beverage.. :-) But it turned out to be a perfect combination for the meal..

The price also was unbelievably friendly.. For 7 pieces of ikan bakar, 3 bottles of beras kencur@600ml, 5 plates of rice, 3 plates of urap, 2 es teh manis dan 2 es teh tawar, they only charged us 90 rebu sajah.. Kalo di Jakarta makan segitu.. Eleuh, jangan ditanya eta mah.. heheh

The place was also clean. When a group of guests finish and leave, they quickly clean up the table and sweep the floor, if necessarry, considering that eating ikan bakar could be a mess.. hehe.. tmpat cuci tangan dan kamar mandinya juga lumayan bersih..

The only thing that nagged us was that the service was quite slow, we waited around 20 minutes for the fish to come out, for the first 5 pieces that is.. after that we ordered another 2, and they came out around 3 minutes later.. Mungkin yg pertama pas lagi dibakar kali ya.. hehe

Anyway, I'm definitely going to grab that delicious ikan bakar again before I go home..

To wrap it up, it's yummy yummy yummy!

I hereby re-review my reviews on Air Asia.. My last flight with it was horrrriiible.. we were stuck for 4 hours karena tidak ada oksigen.. Can you believe that? And my flighttime was midnite, so we flew actually on 4am.. It was holiday season, therefore lots of children got stuck in the airport.. The staff weren't very helpful..
Kacau deh... Air Asia, hopefully this will not happen again.. :(

Fortunately I got a low price for everytime I booked air asia. I write this review after two times on board of air asia. First time alone, the second was with my son.
I boarded the first time when the name was still Awair, got a pretty good impression for such a cheap flightfare. The seats are clean, interior looks nice, and what I liked most was the stewardess is very disciplined. As we all know, most of Indonesians do not turn off their cellphones even when they're on board. The stewardess was very strict about this and I thought it was even better than other bigger airlines.
The second time I went on board was last week, it was a few weeks after they changed the name to Indonesia Air Asia. This time, even better. They separate the passenger with kids or elders from the usual passengers.
The service was better also..
Pokoknya, ga rugi deh..
But watch out for peak seasons.. The airfare is unusually high, more expensive than other airlines..
All you need to do then is just browse through to find the best price..
You go, Air Asia.. Make people fly..!
