Coffee@Bali: Revolver Espresso

Anyone who has been to Seminyak Bali would probably face the dilemma we have- too many choices, too little time. It's like entering a Disneyland of cafes, restaurants, boutiques and spas. On our last day of Bali, we decided to make very wise decisions about where to have our final meals. (Haha..sounds very sombre!)

With great determination and a better functioning GPS this time (after our failed attempt to find this cafe the day before), we found this treasure cove of coffee- Revolver Espresso. Raved by many bloggers as the best coffee joint in Bali Seminyak!

Situated in an alley at the busy streets of Seminyak, one would never know such a quaint and great cafe exist. The easiest way to identify the particular alley is to notice Bali Clinic which on the opposite street. Seminyak Square is also just a stone's throw away.

Amazing ambience for a 'hole-in-the-wall' cafe.

Opted for a iced Latte after such a long walk.

So yummy! Some blend of scrambled eggs with bacon, cheese, spinach and toast.

Home-made muesili, topped with fruits and soya milk.

G and I enjoyed our breakfast- food was satisfying, his iced Latte was fragrant and my Chocolate Banana Smoothie (I attacked it and forgot to take a picture of it!) was delicious too. The prices are reasonable, coffee starts from 25,000idr (~2.5usd) and breakfast starts from 40,000idr (~4usd). Service was great and fyi..the washroom was clean.

And if you are a morning bird like us, you would also be happy to know that Revolver Expresso is opened from 8am unlike many cafes that opened at 10am/11am.

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...

Buy and Eat Cheap Seafood in Jakarta: Everfresh Seafood

Alright I've already shared the other day on where you can get cheap and good imported meat ( read post here if you have not). Now I'll complete the meat loop and share where you can get great and fresh seafood in Jakarta without damage to your wallets! You'd have to check out Everfresh Seafood. Sounds cheesy? I know right..but who cares when you can finally stop buying old stale fish from the supermarkets in Jakarta or stop being ripped off at 'Bule' stores. You will probably need a good driver and sharp eyes to spot the place. Very inconspicuously hidden. An array of fish and other seafood. You can pick your seafood, how you want it cooked and they'll cook it on the spot! When you enter the place, you will notice that there's mostly locals, which is a very good sign that the price will not send you a panic attack. Besides the seafood on display(as shown above), there's also aquariums keeping the live fish and prawns which you can...

Third Trimester: Pregnant Working Mom

PREGNANCY GLOW? SERIOUSLY... I think media has painted such an unrealistic expectation of pregnancy. Perhaps I should be thankful or grateful that I have been getting quite a number of compliments on how well I look during my pregnancy. However that doesn't ease any of the numerous discomfort that I am feeling. Once my back was aching so much and I was in so much misery that even a compliment from my big boss makes me feel like throwing a pan at him. I know he's just trying to be sweet and cheer up this grouchy pregnant lady's day..ah well.. when a pregger feels bad, she's all grumpy. Pregnancy changed my entire perspective on women or rather mothers and also increased my respect/admiration for pregnant working moms. I am currently at my 34 weeks, still working however finding it gradually tougher to last past half the day. I am definitely looking forward to my maternity leave in three weeks' time. I really wonder how some women managed to work all the ...
