White Rabbit - Semarang


There is new comer in Semarang named White Rabbit. This is unique cafe that I can find in Semarang, because mostly cafe in Semarang served main course and dessert, but in white rabbit the owner just offer consumer the dessert menu.
Well, I though the owner had idea about small, cozy, and fantasy cafe which can use to be a place to have a warm talk with people that you love, because the place is so cozy, unfortunately the place is too small. I wish I could find sofa in that place someday. The idea is about afternoon british tea time, and yes it's so recommended place to you to come and enjoy the situation. Sweet, warm, and lovely! Three word for this place.

 For the food? New kind of dessert you can find in Semarang. There is a lot of cake that you can enjoy, like pie, green tea cake, rainbow cake, rose velvet cake, etc. For the drink you can find some coffee, tea, smooties, and chocolate (I think).
And the taste, it feel soo sooo sooooo yummy and I mean it when I'm saying that. I choose rainbow cake and hot lemon tea (because I'm in unhealthy condition) plus rose velvet cake and blueberry smooties. For the rainbow cake it has mint flavor and not too sweet. Meanwhile, the rose velvet cake is flavoury like rose, sweet, and another tasty cake. For the blueberry smooties, one description, it's soooooo blueberry and vanilla ice cream.

Rose Velvet Cake cost about Rp. 21000


Lemon Tea (forget about the price) and Rainbow Cake cost Rp. 18000

Please forget about the diet, please! 
I spent Rp 69000 for this food and it's worth it!

White Rabbit located in Jl. Abdul Rahman Saleh, Semarang, Central Java (in front of house of 'Walikota Semarang')
Why don't you try to go there with someone you love and have a looooong conversation? It's worth to try!

This place is open from about 5pm - the menu is exhausted. Because this place get so many customer that buy these food for their dinner. Pak Min Sentot has some menu like 'nasi goreng', 'bakmi godog (rebus), ataupun 'bakmi goreng'.

Well for the taste, it's sooooo good. For example, when you order 'bakmi godog' you will get noodle with a lot of vegetable, egg, tomato, chicken, with the tasty taste.

Nasi Uduk Kebon Kacang - Semarang


Di semarang muncul tempat makan 'nasi uduk kebon kacang' yang kayaknya cabang dari yang di Jakarta.
Lokasi nya ada di sekitar Puri Anjasmoro.
Kebetulan ketemu tempat makan ini waktu udah gak tau lagi mau makan kemana karena sebagai anak kos jujur aja uda bosen yang namanya makan di luar (bukan masakan rumahan)
Tempat ini letaknya di sebelah kanan jalan dari arah pintu awal masuk ke daerah Puri Anjasmoro, pas malam itu di sebelah kanan di depannya ada angkringan yang juga lagi buka.

Malam itu penulis pesen menu paket 1 yang isinya nasi uduk bungkus 2, ayam goreng, asinan, sama teh tawar tapi gue lebih milih air putih hangat. Untuk soal rasa, nasi uduknya cukup gurih dan enak, sedangkan ayamnya relatif dalam ukuran sedang namun yaa ayam goreng seperti biasanya 'nothing special', untuk sambal nya agak kurang pedas sedikit, sedangkan asinannya standar isinya timun, bengkoang, dan tomat, namun asinannya yang bikin enak ada kacangnya. So far the taste is in standar level I think.

For the price, you can see the menu that I picture for you :)




              So this is how the food looks like








Gak ada salahnya untuk dicoba kok kalau yang udah nyobain nasi uduk kebon kacang Jakarta, ya lumayan buat kangen kangenan :)
