Japanese Groceries at Cosmo

We were visiting the cute barber shop around Blok M when we realised that the Japanese Grocery store, which another Japanese expat-Kaho blogged and recommended before, was just a minute walk away.

Was so delighted to spot this.

The frontal of the shop.
A small mart but with all things Japanese you may wish for.

I was really excited to see the various Sashimi available at reasonable prices. We didn't get much as it was our first time shopping here and we wanted to try out the freshness of the products. 

Remember to ask them for Wasabi and also ice to keep the Sashimi fresh if you are going to travel a while in the car.

We arrived home after an hour and half later (as we proceeded to shop at Indoguna Meat Shop); I quickly sliced up the salmon Sashimi and dug in with G. It was really not bad at all! In fact better than what we had in Ritz(read more here) the other day.

We will definitely return again for all our Japanese supplies :)

    1. Yes thanks for sharing at the first place, if not I would have not stepped in. There's a surprisingly huge Japanese community here, quite amazing how easy it is to find Japanese imports!

Facial Treatment at Miracle Aesthetic Clinic (Kemang, Jakarta)

I am sure those who frequent Kemang will not fail to see the big white building with a huge signage- Miracle Aesthetic Clinic. For those who follow my blog, you will know that I am always on a lookout for a nice spa or beauty/facial places. Just as I was about to check out the clinic, Miracle Aesthetic Clinic dropped me a note to try out their treatments; great timing isn't it? :) Many of us will probably be very skeptical about trying aesthetic treatments in Jakarta or anywhere in Indonesia, after all Jakarta is not famous like Bangkok for beauty treatments. So on the Saturday before I left Jakarta for our holiday, I dragged Hubby G with me to check out Miracle Aesthetic Clinic. They offered a consultation before trying any treatments including facial. I met one of the aesthetic doctors and she took me through the list of available treatments the clinic offers- Botox, Fillers, IPL, Facial, etc. As usual, the cynical me checked with the doctor if the products are legitimate and...

Dinner at Union (Plaza Senayan Courtyard)

After almost an hour of traffic, we arrived at Super Steak. To our dismay, it was closed... Due to my sudden dyslexia, I didn't spot that it was listed on the website that the restaurant is closed on Monday. *Angst* Needed a quick plan change since we were on a cab; we headed to Union at Plaza Senayan which was nearby. Union is highly raved in Tripadvisor and some online portals, hence I was looking forward to some good food. Tucked away in Departmental Store Sogo. 1st Floor. Nice interior and ambience. Melon & Mint Smoothie. Looks unassuming but taste like everything. Amazing. Crispy Pork Belly with Mustard Vinaigrette. Beef Burger. Tiramisu. A mbience Lovely. We noticed that there's more females than males in the restaurant. Perhaps the assortment of sweets and cocktails are more appealing to us, the sweeter gender *snicker*. The decor is tastefully done in classy oakwood and the lights are dimmed nicely. The place was bustling; great if yo...

Hot Yoga In Jakarta

So I haven't done yoga since I got pregnant...which makes that about 2 years since I've exercised at all? I went back to work right after 4 months of maternity leave (that's Singapore for you; why would anyone be surprised with the low birth rate), and maybe it's all excuses but I was either too exhausted to go work out after work or I just wanted to spend time with Alex. Anyway...since Jakarta is an embarkment of a new beginning (especially me not needing to work for the time being!), I decided that I should start a routine of good habits! So my very first destination, alone in Jakarta is... the yoga studio called Yoga@42   which I was extremely delighted to find.   They have two branches, one in Senayan and the other one in Kemang. I went to the Senayan branch which is very near to Senayan Plaza and FX mall. Plaza Arcadia Senayan (Don't confuse it with Plaza Senayan right across the street!) On the left once you climb the steps to the second floor. ...
