Hi, everyone.
I visited Edelweiss Cafe a few days ago and want to share with you guys. Edelweiss Cafe is located near Universitas Parahyangan Ciumbeleuit, Bandung. We went there on a Friday around 2PM and the place was almost full. There were only three to four empty tables. We naturally choose to sit on the outdoor area for better circulation. 

 


Hi, everyone.
On today' what to wear this fall series; the topic is bucket hat. While beret and fedora are more common and bucket hat might look daunting, it's actually very easy to wear to wear this fall. You can add a bucket hat on any casual outfit and it will really add some fashion point to your overall look. For beginners, I highly recommend a cotton plain one. Just put it on with your favorite t-shirt and jeans and you're good to go. Another tip is to match your hat color with one item on your outfit. It can be your top or your bag or even your skirt.

 


Hi, everyone.
I went to Critical 11 Bandung last week and I thought the place was pretty cool so I had to share. It is basically a big complex with plenty of tenants from food, drinks, and even a tattoo parlor. Pretty cool, right? Critical 11 Bandung is located near Husein Sastranegara International Airport so you just go like you would go to the airport, and a few hundred meters before airport' entrance, you'll find Critical 11 Bandung entrance.


Hi, everyone.
Today's series of what to wear this fall is collared (aka polo) sweaters. In conclusion, it's your usual knitted sweater but it has collar. This collared sweaters trend were all over the place last year and it seems to continue its wave this year as well. I personally love the preppy feel the collar gives to a casual sweater. It is also a trend that everyone and every age can wear really. Most importantly, this trend is not too trendy, in a way it's kind of timeless. I do love that kind of trend! Just think, everyone layer their shirt underneath their sweater for a long time. And this trend is a very similar look to that. 

Hi, everyone.
It has been a minute (thanks to COVID-19) since I did a resto review so without further ado, here is a resto review about Jenderal Kopi Bandung. This place is actually called Jenderal Kopi Nusantara Buwas located at Jalan R.E. Martadinata Bandung but for your convenience, I will refer it just as Jenderal Kopi. 


We went there on a Monday around 1.30 PM so we got a table right away. But for weekend, definitely do a reservation first. Eventho we went on a Monday, there were quite some people filled the tables on the first floor but not to the point of crowded. Altho the outdoor area does look quite packed; so we decided to sit upstairs where there were only one other group there.




This outdoor area was reserved for a group.


All the windows on the second floor were opened wide so don't worry about air circulation. All the staff were wearing their mask the entire time we were there which is also important. We even did a car valet since parking were full and the valet driver spray everything from the steering wheel, the chair, and the door handle using alcohol. I do commend them for that. 



Place itself is very nice. I do love the tall ceiling and the bar is just gorgeous with its exposed bricks.   Their incredibly spacious area is also a big plus for this pandemic era. Service gets 9 out of 10 from me. I deduct one since there weren't seem to be enough staff that we do need to wait a bit long for everything; from ordering to asking for an extra plate.




We ordered a Linguini Pesto with Garlic Chicken for the price of Rp 70.000 and it was delish! We did went there after lunch so we both share one dish. Waiting time wasn't so bad; since we were busy taking pics and when we got back to our table, both of our drinks were there. Food came out about 10 minutes later. 



For drinks, I feel compelled to try out their coffee since the place itself is called Jenderal Kopi so I ordered their Vanilla Latte for Rp 35.000. I do enjoy their vanilla latte. I can taste the coffee for sure and it sure was smooth with a slightly sour aftertaste. I can taste the vanilla as well and the sweetness was just up to my taste. 



My husband ordered Jenderal Iced Chocolate for Rp 45.000 and it sure is delicious. 




Scan for their menu.


Overall would definitely recommend this place. I might just come for an actual lunch during weekday. To avoid crowd, for sure avoid weekend or dinner time. If possible, just come for lunch on a weekday.

Jenderal Kopi Nusantara Buwas
LLRE Martadinata No. 219, Cihapit, Bandung.

Hi, everyone.
Starting this week I will be doing a series of what to wear this fall every week and will conclude it sometime in October with a Fall Lookbook. 
This week will be talking about sweater vest or knitted vest. It has been a big trend last year and this year it continue to be popping up in stores. Last year I gravitated towards a more fitted sweater vest but this year I lean toward a more baggy fit.

 


Hi, everyone.
Starting this week I will be doing a series of what to wear this fall every week and will conclude it sometime in October with a Fall Lookbook. 
First up from this series is sage green knitwear. This green is kinda of elusive and I'm not even sure mine is the exact right color but this sage green shade is an earthy gray-ish green color; resembling of that a dried sage leaves. Since it is a muted color, this sage green will be perfect for fall in knitwear.
