Food, food, food! This time I want to talk about food! Gigantic Crab, yes! It's a super big crab I ever see in my life ;p It's not as big as Alaska Crab (which I never try, only see it at one of restaurant in Balikpapan). Actually, I'm not a big fan of crab, but everytime my boss come to visit, she always wants to eat crab. This time she visit Surabaya and took us to try this crazy crab.
It's called Beatus, they said this restaurant is really famous in Surabaya, for it's big crab. The place is quite far for the city center, also not so big. They said we lucky, we don't make reservation that day because usually need reservation. 
So, we order this spicy caramelized crab, grilled sea bass with potato and spicy caramelized sea bass for the main course. Look at those shallots and garlic, so yummy! We also order mushroom cream soup, some kind escargot (I forgot the name and didn't take picture, haha!), that salmon sushi thingy and a little snack too  for appetizer.

Everything just so perfect! No wonder this restaurant always full. And the last is pancake with ice cream for dessert. We are too full, so we can't eat all, haha! Because we order another extra crab, lol. The thing that I don't like about this pancake is, one of the ice cream is coffee flavor XD. Haha! I hate coffee. But overall, everything yum! I would give nine out of 10 for this restaurant ;)

Good Food, Happy Tummy!

Hello! I'm back again! It's been a week since I start back to real world (read : back to work). And I starting this new year by working in different city. No no! I'm not getting new job, I'm just taking over my coworker job for few month while she taking her maternity leave. So back to business! It's been a while, I really want to try pilates class. I don't get a chance to join my friend class (for free, of course ;p). Some of you maybe say yoga and pilates are the same. It similar, but pilates is more intense and focus on abs. So, this article below will show you the different. 
Pilates or Yoga: Which Practice is for You?
"Pilates or Yoga" on Health Perch

So, for me it's definitely Yoga! I already "in love" with yoga. But I would love to try pilates sometime. I've been searching for places to take yoga class around here (around my office). And I only found one that super close to my place (only 6 minutes walking!), but quite expensive. I check the place, it's like highclass yoga & pilates place. Look so nice! But I haven't decide when will I take yoga class there. Let's see in couple weeks!

Namaste!!

Happy New Year!!! I'm back! Let's start this new year with more blog post. So, how was your new year? I still in the mood of holiday! But too bad I have to back to real world, back to work. Like I said on my last post, I went to Japan last two weeks. Spending my birthday and new year in Japan sounds fun (indeed!). 

The adventure began on December 26th 2014. It's about 11am, our flight to Kuala Lumpur. This is the first time we will be landing in KLIA2 airport. The airport is big and better than LCCT, and there's mall inside. Landing in light rain, the flight is smooth. Since it's raining, we decide just stroll around the airport.

Look at those Christmas decorations! Looks really nice. There's funny thing happen while we stroll around. It was around 8pm we are heading to check-in counter, took some pictures there with the KLIA2 sign. We got in, but check-in counter still not open yet. So we decide to go back to mall again, and find something to eat. After about 30 minutes strolling around, we decide to get some food at Nanny's Pavillon (my favorite pancake restaurant! is in KLIA2 now!). And guess what! two of our luggage (my backpack and one hand bag) missing!! I was like OMG! All my stuff in there, and my lens also there!! I don't have any clothes to face the winter in Japan! PANIC! We go back to places we went before, feel so stupid! It's all because we change to small trolley few hours before that happened (bad decision!). Ta da! We found it! Right on the other side of KLIA2 sign. Those bags just like neglected stuff, no one take it or remove it. It just there! Haha!
This picture taken  right before I "lose" my backpack. Haha! So stupid! And this below picture, was taken near the check-in counters. Nice decorations!

After we found those bags, we go back straight to Nanny's Pavillon. And Eat! Haha! There are some Indonesian staffs there, and one of them talk to us. He's really nice and offer to let us put our luggages there until our departure time. Too bad they don't open 24 hours, because they have super cozy place (pillows!!).

The menu is not as much in Indonesia, but the taste still the same! Yummy! We order chocolate waffle, lemon tea and iced chocolate. Haha! I forgot to take picture and here's what I took, empty plate ;p Around 11pm we decide to stroll, again!!
Now everyone can fly! See those airplanes! You can see those plane take off and landing from up here! So close! Nice! But many people smoke here -_-! So, it was the time for check-in, we go inside then rest in waiting room. I will continue on the next post!

speak soon,
