Amazing Seafood at Bahari Restaurant, Makassar, South Sulawesi
Visiting Makassar, South Sulawesi, will not be complete without trying its famous food. Besides Coto Makassar, Konro, Palu butung, and Pisang Ijo, Makassar is also famous for its wide variety of fresh seafood.
Complete menus on the table!
The last time I visited Makassar, it was for a long transit so I didn't really get a chance to enjoy this wonderful city. Yet, when I came back here last May, I only had 3 short days as it was already packed with meetings. But then again, I was lucky that we had the chance to enjoy whatever we can enjoy in our super tight schedule.
Chili crabs, anyone?
I managed to try Coto Makassar twice, in 2 restaurants which are famous for this hot, beef soup packed with wonderful spices. But what strikes me most os our dinner at Bahari Restaurant, where we enjoyed a wide variety of seafood menus at its best!
All the sambals or chili sauce you need for the seafood
Let's take a look at these photos. As you can see, there are so many amazing food... starting from grilled Baronang fish to tamarind-marinated squids (it is very good indeed surprisingly), to chilly crabs and grouper fish spicy soup.
Grilled Baronang... fresh, with a hint of lemon drops!
Not to mention otak - otak or steamed/grilled fish cake (one of my fave!) and more!
Otak - otak... one of my fave..
Those are some of the seafood I managed to try and I know I will be back with Coto Makassar as well. So, how do you like them? Tasty, right!
Wishing you all a lovely week ahead and join us on (almost) Wordless Wednesday and have fun with the link party!
Do you look for wonderful ambience to enjoy around your meal?
Well, I do!
Whenever I get a chance to come to one particular area, I would definitely try to find unique, wonderful restaurant to enjoy.
On my last trip to Bali, I managed to eat in Nook, one cozy restaurant in Kerobokan, Bali. Although I was traveling during Ramadhan, we managed to stop by at lovely restaurants in the area, including this one.
Nook is a great place to chill, relax, and taste the food while enjoying the soothing green Paddy fields in Bali! The ambience and the interior design are so homey and inviting as well.
Don't you just love it!
We went here during Ramadan and we came by to have Ifthar with friends. They do have this lovely ambience because the restaurant is located in the middle of the rice field. So as you enjoy the food and drinks, you will be serenaded by breeze, wind chymes, and singing birds. How do you like that? Super peaceful indeed.
The paddy fields around the resto
You can definitely order yummy, delicious food here. Find yourself a melange of Western food as well Indonesian and Balinese food to your liking. Here you can have burgers, steak, and pasta as well as sandwiches. They also serve Indonesian food. As for drinks, there are a lot of choice you us to explore. Again, including Indonesian beverages like teh sereh and jahe merah or red ginger.
I tried the Nasi Campur Special, the traditional Balinese plate with complete mini main course starting from rendang, chicken, urap or fresh veggies, sambal matah, tempe and tofu, corn fritters and sate lilit or minced fish satay a la Bali. Super good! I have my infused water and lime ginger hot tea. All is delicious. My friends tried Sirloin steak, spaghetti, and ayam geprek.
Cozy spot we have here...
The service is fast, waiters are friendly. They are very friendly indeed and for sure they can give you all the recommendations for the best food and beverages you like.
I really love the decorations, comfy seats and sofas as well as the ambience here. Let's take a look at photos I took around this cozy place.
The parking lot is not that big but there are staff who can help you finding the spot nearby as well. So parking is manageable.
This place is disability friendly as well and again the staff will be more than happy to help.
Happy to recommend this place for sure!
So, will you come here when you are around?
I sincerely hope so! And see you on the next adventure!
Fancy enjoying favorite dessert in cozy restaurant? Oh yes, I love it!
Recently I have been scouting lovely eateries around my office and my home to enjoy some of the best Indonesian culinary, fusion food, desserts, beverages and more. It is part of my mission of supporting local businesses, reviving our passion towards Indonesian traditional food and beverages, as well as the joy of spending some quality time with my hubby and my family.
One of the places we recently visit is Hello Sunday, a lovely cafe and dessert located in Metropole, Cikini, Jakarta, Indonesia. I have seen their IG account but haven't got a chance to actually come and visit until last weekend. I came to the office because I needed to get the antigen test and together with my hubby, we decided to stop by at this lovely place.
Hello Sunday has been famous for its cakery and desserts. It has a few outlets across Jakarta. When we arrived, we had to go through the health protocol including temperature check and washing hands. It also follows the procedures of only accommodating 50 percent of the capacity so we don't have to worry about the physical distancing. The tables are sanitized as well.

When I came, they had just released Ube soft serve a couple day before. It was purple, yummy and uber cool. This soft serve ice cream comes with roasted almonds, marshmallows and caramel popcorns. When you look at it you will definitely fall in love with it. And that is just the ice cream, my friend!
We have so many more incredible food and beverages worth trying in the menus. Let's have a look.
One of them is the mood booster, fresh cold press with perfect combination of orange, carrot, pineapples, lime, and apple. Not to mention Putu Waffles, famous Belgian waffles but using kue putu dough with pandan leaves. This waffle is indeed lovely. Love the textures of the waffle and the taste is also exquisite. It is cool to see a lovely blend between Indonesian traditional recipe and famous Western food like waffles.
don't you just love it!
They certainly have more but we only tried all these sweet plates. And we love them all! Here you can also enjoy mac and cheese, chicken waffles, steak, fish and beef burgers, pizza and more. They also have rice plates like fried rice, basmati green fried rice and the one with lamb. They even have gyudon and salmon don here, as well as salmon and quinoa.
Price wise, the food and beverages are priced in typical rate as Jakarta's cafes. So I say it's worth a try. With the quality food and beverages they serve, I guess it's worth it.
Well, obviously, this place is super lovely. we were helped by Irlang, one of the waiters, and he has been super helpful and fun indeed. Don't miss this place when you are around and I bet you can have an amazing day at Hello Sunday Metropole, Jakarta. See you on our next culinary adventure!.
Welcome to Wonderful Wednesday in this sweet February
Here comes February, the month of love, as many would say.
The beginning of the month is dotted with my back - to - back virtual meetings as well as my doctor visits. As I have probably shared in previous post, this year marks the 5th year of me consuming the hormones suppressant due to my breast cancer. I am so ready to stop taking Lezra if everything is well. I need to do many screening test to ensure it. Hopefully everything is fine and my cancer is NOT coming back in any ways nor forms. Wish me luck!
Back to hospital to check things out!
Anyway, I have been exploring so many local businesses near my residence and as I have shared in my Google Maps account, I have many more to try and enjoy. It is a bit tricky as we still have rampant COVID - 19 cases but as I take a long walk to have my daily exercise, I sometimes ended in those food stalls for takeaways or if it was not too crowded, I ate on the spot swiftly. Last week, my mom and I tried mie kocok bakso Bandung, a typical Bandungnese meatball soup with egg noodles and vermicelli. The other day we bought gudeg Jogja, krecek and perkedel at one of the food stalls in Rawamangun traditional market. Then we also tried es cendol, a traditional beverage from the vendor around the area. Well, it feels good to support the home-based and local business while at the same time making sure our health is well protected. How is you week so far by the way?

Risol ragout dari Warung Nongkrong, Tempat Hits di Bandar Lampung yang Harus Kamu Coba
Hi semua..
Salam sehat! Semoga kita semua selalu sehat, aman dan bahagia, di manapun berada.
Belum lama ini, aku dan keluarga sempat beberapa kali mengunjungi Bandar Lampung, kota tercinta yang menjadi kampung halaman. Urusan keluarga yang mendesak membuat kami sempat bolak - balik beberapa kali sambil tentu saja menyempatkan diri untuk menikmati some outdoorsy time favorit kami sekeluarga, snorkeling dan berenang di pulau kesayangan yang banyak terdapat di Teluk Lampung. For sure dengan tetap memperhatikan protokol kesehatan dan disiplin dengan 3 M. Pokoknya, a trip back home is always packed with cool stuff.
Warung Nongkrong, Tempat Hits di Bandar Lampung yang Harus Kamu Coba
So recently, I also had some times to meet my dearest ladies in one of our favorite spots. Just like in many cities across the country, we have so many cool cafes and hip restaurants being opened. Bandar Lampung is no exception. Compared to the time when I was born and raised in this lovely city, Bandar Lampung is now dotted with eateries, cafes, and lovely Instagramable restaurants. Some of them are managed and run by my friends as well.
Kita sudah datang sebelum Warungnya buka hehehe
So in one of our visits to Lampung I came to the place that has been recently reopened. Warung Nongkrong namanya. Terletak di Jl. Z.A Pagaralam no. , Kedaton, Bandar Lampung, this place is indeed very strategic. Located right on the side of the main road, very near to several campuses and universities in the area, Warung Nongkrong certainly attracts many crowds who love to spend some times in a comfortable place over famous Lampungnese coffee and delectable plates. With a touch of industrial design and homy accent, this place is indeed a nice place to visit.
Masih ingat kaan waktu aku ketemu ibu - ibu hits teman kecilku di Bandar Lampung yang sampai sekarang masih sering bertukar sapa dan kabar via berbagai platform, terutama WAG dan Instagram? Beberapa waktu yang lalu, aku sempet bertemu dengan @lindasumadewi @rennygheghe @iyuniarti di tempat nongkrong paling hits @warungnongkrong #bandarlampung. For sure, pastinya kita bertemu dengan menerapkan protokol kesehatan yaaaa! Face shield, masker, jaga jarak (mendekat pas foto aja bentaar 😇) dan rajin cuci tangan plus pakai sanitizer untuk ruangan maupun tangaan.
Some of the food we tried in Warong Nongkrong. Banyak juga hehe..
It is indeed now a must for all restaurants and public places to implement 3M in Indonesia: wearing masks, washing our hands properly and frequently; and keeping safe physical distance. Here in this cafe, when you first come your body temperatures will be checked and you are requested to wash your hands. Moreover, hand sanitizers are also available. I also saw that the tables and chairs are cleaned frequently with disinfectant.
And now, let's see the menu! My favorite part indeed! There are various menus you can definitely try here. Starting from the appetizers, main course and desserts, you can also enjoy a wide range of incredible Lampungnese coffees which are famous for their bold tastes and aroma. Something that you should not miss while coming here.
Risol Ragout and Kroket keju. super yuuuum..
Kalau bicara menu, banyak yang aku dan anak - anak suka nikmati di sini. One of my fave is of course the risol. Aku sukaaa dengan risolnya yg mantul dan asli enaak! No MSG lagi! Yaaay bangeet buat aku dan pastinya juara rasanya! Risol ini ada yang original dan ada yang isinya extra keju Mozarella. Dua - duanya enak. Anak - anak juga sempat coba burger, chicken strips, siomay, Korean garlic cheese bread, singkong keju, nasi goreng, nasi iga and more. Ternyata banyak aja yaaa hahaha. Warung Nongkrong juga punya promo untuk jam makan siang yang asyik dengan harga super terjangkau dan pastinya enak yaaa. Pokoknya rugi untuk dilewatkan, terutama untuk mereka yang berdomisili di Bandar Lampung dan sekitarnya.
Dan pilihan makanan sama kopinya juga okeee, dengan deretan kopi dan coklat produksi asli #lampungkeren yang kamu, ya KAMU, musti cobain. Pokoknya ♥️♥️♥️banget. Aku sempat mencoba ice blended choco yang menggunakan coklat asli produksi Pesawaran Lampung. Juga ada Jahe Merah yang asli produksi lokal Pesawaran Lampung. Rasanya mantap! Bahkan aku membawa pulang paket jahe merah yang pas banget diminum saat pandemi seperti ini.
Happy me with ice choco asli dari Pesawaran, Lampung
Not to mention local blend, yang tersaji mantap dalam kopi tubruk Lampung. Moreover, you can order various ice blended beverages including strawberries smoothies, matcha frappe, nutella choco frappe, red velvet frappe, and lychee squash and more. My .. I can go on and on with those drink list indeed.
Btw, I managed to make a video on one of my visits here, featuring my dearest friends and cousin, Indri and Gheghe, as well as the owner, Linda Sumadewi. It's already in YouTube (here is the link of Warung Nongkrong video) and hope you can watch it fully.
If you want to know more, langsung kepoin IG nyaaa yaa, bisa check out di sini: IG Warung Nongkrong.
Cheers from the 4 of us at Warung Nongkrong
Alamatnya Warung Nongkrong adalah Jl. Z.A. Pagaralam no. 30, Kedaton, Bandar Lampung. It is so easy to find this place as it is located by the main road. You won't miss it!
So, that's a little review I have for Warung Nongkrong(WN) in Bandar Lampung. Hope you get to visit this lovely place and let's support the local business in our neighborhood.
