Taiwan-Indulged

Yeap!!
I'm back with another delicious restaurant to review..!

So this place i'm about to show you is definitely somewhere in my fav-restaurant-list. Located in Pantai Indah Kapuk - a kinda new [around 2 years now? i think] place where a lot [yeah! A-VERY-CRAZY-LOTS] of youngsters hanging out. A part of Jakarta where you'll find it hard to drive around weekend. [you'll literally see a 4 rows road became a tiny little 1 row. yeap, they're that packed.]
from Cafè(s), Bars, Dessert Restaurants, Milk Tea(s), Chinese fine dinning, Family Restaurants (Indonesian - thai - taiwanese - western - japanese - korean  -you name it. they have it all. And they have LOTS of them.), food court, to Supermarket. You can even find a traditional market there. Just bear with the traffic, and the crazy-hard-parking part. :'D.

Aaaa! did i mention that the majority of people here is chinese [not to be racist, but this is what my friends told me : "PIK is somehow like the chinese version of Kemang (a famous youngsters hangout district in South Jakarta).]

anyway,
in the midst of all these hangout place packed with youngsters. There's this place where our seniors would LOVE to be.

T2 Taiwanese Tea & Coffee

Why seniors? is it that old that no youngsters are meant to be? the food? the atmosphere? hmm...
honestly? i have no idea. it's just i rarely see youngsters hanging out here.
call me oldies, but i love it here. the foods are such a darling to my tastebuds.
[My mom LOVE it here as well]

the semi-outdoor

indoors. See? told ya! Seniors. ;D 

Turquoise Tea. not really an everyday tea, right?

So i came here with my mom and my sista!
Here are some menus we ordered :

Menu No. 801 Taiwanese Mee Sua.
idr. 35K

look at that! Mee Sua topped with minced pork, fried anchovies, and soft-poached egg (it usually visible, but...)

No. 859 Taiwanese Go Hiong
idr. 30K

No. 863 Fried Enoki
idr. 21K

No. 868 Taiwanese Seaweed Popiah
idr. 40K

This one is a new-comer to the menu and guess what??? THIS IS GOOD!
RAW Jicama + Carrot + Cucumber + delicious crunchies rolled with lumpia skin (chinese spring roll) and seaweed.
lookin' at the ingredients, i suppose it's kinda low-calorie..so, make sure you try this on your visit. 

For you who have this chinese-porky-taste-bud. I would really recommend to visit. they have BUNCH of pork in their menu. From side dish to main course.

And of course when you hear "Taiwan", it's the desserts and milk tea! :9
in the menu, T2 offers various kinds of drinks [by various i mean around 92].
Classify them into 7 groups :
1. Special Tea Series
2. Fresh Tea Series
3. Milk Tea Series
4. Smoothie Series
5. Cocoa or Coffee
6. Fresh Milk Series
just like other tea / milk tea place, you can also request your preference of sugar and ice levels and add your favorite toppings. They're offering Bubble, Aloe vera, Jelly, Grass jelly, Glassy Jelly, Pudding, Coconut Jelly, Rainbow Jelly, Coffee Jelly, Adzuki Beans, and Popping Ball.

sounds ordinary ?

we ordered Signature Milk Tea (Less Sugar, Less Ice) with Grass Jelly + Coconut Jelly
COUPLE SIZE (look how big it was compared to my hand)
idr. 41K

Here's the couldn't-found-in-other-place part : by adding idr 8K to your drink, you can upsize it to the couple size. which i find crazy big, three of us - we can barely finish it.

Estimation : idr. 50 - 70K / Person.
[it was idr. 222K for the 3 of us.]
