Hidden Gem inside Plaza - Lucky Cat Coffee & Kitchen

Been looking for a time to write my experienced here, but couldn't do that because some well spent time with family for a week. So yeah, here I am just writing about this even though it's been like 2 weeks i guess. But don't worry about that, this cafe still in the hype season though, if you want to come here.

WHY I WANT TO VISIT HERE? Yes, some because of social media, said this is the instagrammable place, the place is cozy, the food is good. And so yeah I decided to try this (been a long time want to come to this place, and finally I did!)

This cafe located inside the Plaza Festival Kuningan, the cafe is right beside Bakrie University. And what's amazed me this cafe open for 24 hours. So if you are near the area, and don't know what to do and where to chill, you probably could come here. Here's the instagram account in case you want to see their cafe inside from social media : www.instagram.com/luckycatcoffeekitchen

Lucky Cat Coffee & Kitchen

South Parking Plaza Festival No. 1, Jakarta, Indonesia

Step inside and you will feel the natural lighting inside. Oh my God, it's so cozy and makes me want to come here on daytime. It's bright, with some wood ornament, the classic coffee shop. For the downstairs, it quite spacious, and you could chilling out with some friends, meeting, and throw some little event here downstairs. Because it's more like space for more people.

All the orders are self-service. The waiter won't come to you to bring you the menu and notes your order. Instead, you have to come to the cashier to tell what you want to order and paid for it first. After that, then you can sit on your seat and waiting for your orders patiently. The menu are also at the cashier, but if you still want to choose then you can view the menu by Zomato. Because I did that before I came to the cashier. Try not to think too long, because the queue will be piled up.

For upstairs, it quite spacious for seats. But not for many people, like one table up for 2-5 persons. I didn't took much pictures upstairs, because the alley not too spacious for walking around.

Let's jump to the food and service!

Spaghetti Carbonara

Chicken Donburi

Kelepon Cake

So here's the food I ordered :

1. Spaghetti Carbonara, it contains mushrooms and bacon. The carbonara taste quite good, not too cheesy and creamy if you're not the fan of cheesy and creamy food. I'm not the big fan of some creamy food, but it taste quitely good for me and I could handle that without some chili sauce. Yeah I could rate it for 7.5 out of 10 for the taste. And the portion quite big too for pasta in cafe.

2. Chicken Donburi, contains chicken yakitori, scrambled egg, bonito flakes, with miso soup. Seriously, the portion for this menu quite big. Even I can't finish this even though I am big eater. And I will say they quitely creative. Because mostly donburi I found was chicken covered in bread crumbs, and poured the sauce over it. But this one, was chicken yakitori. The menu itself taste good for me. I rated this for 7.5 out of 10.

3. Kelepon Cake, this cake are in hype these days. And so I decided to try this kind of cake. The cake, same as usual cake out there. Not too dry, not too moist too. It's quite okay. And between the layer, they got grated coconut mixed with brown sugar. Eat the cake and coconut in the same time, and yes I liked it. It was not too sweet, so if you're not the sweet fan, or if you try to avoid sweet dessert, food, or drink then maybe you could try this. Rated 8 out 10 for this cake.

They have smoking area upstairs if you're happen want to smoke. I came here around 4 PM, and upstair it quite full packed on weekday, but I still got some seat. But, this cafe getting crowd as the night comes in. So if you want to come here and get some seat, you can come here in the afternoon or evening. But if you got spare time in the night time, just wait patiently. Come here again? Probably yes!
