By The Beach

For lunch today, i went to see a friend of mine who may by a chance i will not see her ever again because i am going abroad in a month, so we went just the two of us just to spend a full day together. We went to the mall EX and watched this new movie, Knight and Day. Before we went to watch, i was so hungry because i didn't eat breakfast so we went to this restaurant that i have been curious at for quite a while, its located at the bridge between EX and Plaza Indonesia called "By the beach". By the name it self i can tell that the food here mainly is seafood but i didn't know what kind of food it served, turns out the food is from my home town, Indonesia. We ordered the "Tahu Telor Merapi", "Cumi goreng spesial" and "Dori dengan Jimbaran sauce". The tahu telor was really fucking huge, the reason why i ordered it was because of the name, "merapi" is literally "eruption of a volcano" i did not thought that they would actually relate the name of the food literally cause the shape was really tall and big! It was really and effort to eat it, the taste is good though i guarantee it, the combination of the tahu(tofu) with the fried egg with Kecap Manis (sweet soysauce) was refreshing. It was like a food menu for breakfast but much better. The cumi goreng spesial was also good, i mean i love cumi(squid) from the beginning and when you deep fried it, the taste of the crisp from the flour makes the taste of the squid more tasty. You can taste the squid so much more better. The dory was good, for me dory is like my 4th favorite fish so obviously for me any kind of Dory served food will be good, the Jimbaran sauce was also good. It was spicy but somehow when i eat it, it wasn't spicy at all, you can only taste pepper and had this sweet salty taste which i really like too. For Indonesians, we are all a big fan of rice so i ordered a red rice to go with it. I also had iced tea, the taste was well just like any normal iced tea but i recommend you to just buy water because the tea here is very expensive and so not worth it! The taste of the rice makes my lunch just perfect, i just wished that i finished the Tahu telor, but overall i had a great time here.
