One Fine Day at a Petit Café

Things had been busy, deadlines were chasing me through the labyrinth of my life cycle and I was in need of some sort of comfort. I had no idea where to find just a tad bit of relaxation, I definitely did not want to stay at home. I was feeling stressed in my abode, the last thing I wanted was more pressure.

Desperate for an escape, I went online and searched for places where I could do some work. Cafés seemed cozy enough to fulfill my desire of gaining a drop of energy to continue on with my never-ending assignments. Surfing through the internet for the perfect café took a long time, it was difficult. I scrolled endlessly, wondering why not one café intrigued me, perhaps I was being too picky.

Then, it popped up. A café that peaked my interest. Alizi Coffee + Eatery. I observed the pictures and images available on the Google page, the location wasn’t that far from where I lived.

Nice.

Looking at online pictures of the place, I noticed that the café was not that spacious, which was what I had hoped for. A small and compressed area was ideal for maintaining my focus and attention to do my work in an effective and efficient way.

So, I got ready from my home and went there by foot. I found the place, it was easily recognizable as it had glass doors showcasing the interior. I walked into the café, the vibe was homey, to my pleasant surprise. The atmosphere of the room had an air of gracefulness. It was clear that everyone there was feeling a sense of comfort and coziness.

There were snacks, such as loaded fries, chicken fingers, roti bakar, and many other options. The snacks ranged from 15-30k rupiahs.

For the main course, they had Indonesian food like nasi sop iga, mie tek-tek, nasi ayam bakar wangi, and other choices. However, it did not stop there. They also had Western food such as fish & chips, club sandwich, beef stroganoff, and other options. They even had Oriental main courses, they had nasi ayam kung pao, tom yum, bakmi goreng hongkong, and many more. They all ranged between 15-45k rupiahs.

As for drinks, they did not forget to diversify the beverage menu as the customers could order teh tarik, strawberry juice, hot chocolate, and mocktails for the price range of 8-30k rupiahs.

Personally I was looking for something light to accompany my time in the petit coffee + eatery, so I ordered the chicken popcorn for 25k rupiahs and a mocktail drink called the blue lagoon��made with butterfly pea flower—that cost 25.5k rupiahs. As a result, the total I spent for a mid-afternoon meal was 50.5k rupiahs. Was it worth it? My verdict is: yes, yes it definitely was.

The chicken popcorn smelled delicious. Its juicy crunch was paired with a good kick of pepper that danced happily on my taste buds. I definitely was not disappointed. I grabbed the drink to ease off the spice that was not going away, it was pretty strong. The blue lagoon drink had this sweet tangy floral-type flavor that was not too overpowering, making me enjoy the drink very much. The flavor was like something I had never experienced before, but I was not complaining about it.

After finishing my meal and drink, I finally felt motivated to do my assignments whilst enjoying the ambience of the café. Turns out, food and beverages are a very sufficient gateway towards productivity. Overall, it was a blissful experience, 10/10. The food and drinks exceeded my expectations. The atmosphere gave a resounding peacefulness for every customer looking to find some downtime. I highly recommend this place for when you want to deafen the distracting noises in your day-to-day life and have some time for yourself by going to a spot with a guarantee in quality. It’s a perfect little place for when you want to be alone, or for when you want to hang out with friends and family. Either way, you will feel relaxed. If anybody is lured by my strong praise of this place, the exact location is at Ruko Tomang Tol Raya, Blk. A1 Jl. Kedoya Pesing No.14, Kedoya Sel., Daerah Khusus Ibukota Jakarta 11520. Enjoy your time there, because I absolutely did.
