Polusi Udara?

Yak.. Seminggu ini saya belum ngepost apa2.. hehe..
Kali ini, post dengan bahasa Indonesia saya buat karena saya ingin menyampaikan topik yang sangat khas tentang isu kehidupan sehari-hari masyarakat Indonesia.. Polusi udara.. haha..
Kenapa? Karena tiba2 seorang teman men-share video ini di akun FB-nya dan saya tertawa terbahak-bahak sejenak melihat tingkah laku pemeran video ini.. Check it out!




Yak.. di awal video saya ga nyaka kalo yang dibahas adalah masalah asap rokok.. Tapi memang ini yang menjadi masalah banyak orang.. Asap rokok ada dimana-mana.. Di Mall, di kampus, di toko, di jalan, di rumah (kalau ada yang anggota keluarganya merokok).. Jujur saya kesal dengan orang yang merokok.. Apalagi orang yang merokok itu orang yang kurang mampu secara ekonomi.. Di satu sisi mereka minta dikasihani, tapi di sisi lain, mereka lebih mementingkan rokok, bahkan lebih daripada makanan untuk anak-anaknya..

Saya pernah menemukan orangtua mahasiswa yang penghasilannya tiap bulan hanya Rp 2jt, tapi budget rokoknya lebih dari Rp 300.000,- per bulan.. tiap semester total uang yang habis untuk rokok lebih dari Rp 1.800.000,-.. Dan beliau meminta keringanan untuk uang kuliah anaknya.. Saya rasa itu ga masuk akal.. Seorang ayah menghabiskan 3/20 dari penghasilannya hanya untuk kesenangannya sendiri yang bahkan merusak kesehatannya sendiri dan kesehatan keluarganya juga..

Selain itu, saya pernah bertemu seorang teman yang saking addict-nya sama rokok, walaupun dia udah divonis dokter mengidap bronkhitis & bolak balik rumah sakit karena ternyata ada flek di paru-parunya, malah tetap merokok dengan lancar jaya sampe sekarang.. Selamat menempuh hidup yang lebih "indah" ya, sobat.. hahaha

No offense buat yang merokok, tapi coba deh pikirin lagi kalo teman2 ga merokok seminggu, uangnya bisa dipake buat beli apa.. Kalo setahun gimana? Coba deh, setiap kalian membakar sebatang rokok, kalian  bayangin kalian itu sedang bakar uang dua ribuan. Atau kalau mau yang ekstrim cobain deh bakar uang sepuluh ribuan trus dihisap.. nyesek ga sih?

Sweet Lovely Desserts

Sometimes when I eat, I feel something is missing if I didn't order / eat any desserts.. Of course this feeling don't always some whenever or whatever happened.. Just in some times and some places (especially the place where known by their great dessert).. I like to eat them, because they give me happy feelings whenever I ate them.. hehe.. it's just too much

In my opinion, dessert have to be sweet, cold, either fruity or creamy or both.. :)
I don't really like the hot - fried one, and i found an article which said that fried desserts can cause may problem to out health.. hehe

So, here are their pics!

Coconut Pudding - Clover Restaurant (Central Park Jakarta)
Though I'm not fond of coconut (neither the fruit, water, nor the milk), I really like this coconut pudding! It's fresh! :6


Haagen Dazs Ice cream cake :P


Strawberry Cheese Cake - Mr Curry (Grand Indonesia)
This is bro's favorite dessert! All about strawberries and cheese! :D


Matcha Dorayaki Tower - Mr Curry (Grand Indonesia)
Well, one of my favorite ice cream flavor is green tea, so I ordered this right away after saw it on the menu.. :D


Es Cendol - Glodok
I'm not talking about the Padang Satay.. Hehe.. Just focused on the Cendol on the right side.. :)
It's really tasty with the smell of pandan and suji leaves.. My favorite one is "cendol bandung" which sold in Glodok..




Green Tea Roppan Dessert Toast (can't remember the name) - Roppan (Living World Alam Sutera)
I ate this with all of my family members (dad, mom, 2 younger bro).. They all said that this is amazing! :D


Banana Split - Ragusa Veteran

Cassara Siciliana (If I'm not mistaken) - Ragusa Veteran

Forgot the name - Ragusa Veteran

Spaghetti Ice Cream - Ragusa Veteran

Nougat - Ragusa Veteran
Ragusa is a legendary ice cream store in Jakarta. Until now, they process all their ice cream in a traditional way and taste so good, though they melt quickly. It's known as Italian ice cream, but I don't know whether it's right or wrong.



Green tea parfait - Mr Curry (Grand Indonesia)
This is what I want to eat at my first visit to Mr Curry, but I wasn't lucky that night because all parfait was sold out. Then in the next few weeks I came back and got it! :D


Egg Tart - Xiang Garden (Mangga Dua Square)
Maybe one of you realized that this picture also seen in my last post. Yeah, this is one of the desserts that served in Dim Sum eating session, besides any kind of puddings.. :)


Fruit Soup - Takor FISIP UI
In Indonesia, we call it SOP BUAH and can be translated in English as FRUIT SOUP. It contains all kinds of fruit (could be apples, pears, strawberries, jackfruit, dragonfruit, watermelon, melon, soursop, etc) with ice and sweetened condensed milk (and sometimes they also add some cocopandan syrup)

Of course I've eaten more than what I can captured, and now i still trying to find another delicious dessert to try.. Now, I'm looking for jarcakes that sold near me, it seems like it is really fun eating a cake that baked in a jar..




interesting, isn't it? I promised that whenever I got this, I'll post it to share how does it taste like.. :D
