Sop Durian Mozzarela

Some people love it and the others hate it very much. Durian or duren. Whatever you called it but I know this one is tropical fruit. It smells really strong that’s probably why some people love it and either hated it. I’m in between actually. I don’t love it very much but I also don’t hate it. I can eat everything I guess.

            Last weekend, I went home for visiting my family in town. My hometown located in Sukabumi. Five hours away by bus from Bandung. Every time I pass a road near the city center, I always see this new café. It looked so interesting for me because they show so much durian in front of their place.

            Sop Durian Mozzarela café is only there in Sukabumi. They started in 2014 and now they have 2 café in town.

            I decided to visit this little café with my friend, Owl (not real name). Well we went there and order three menus that can represent all the menus in this café. They offered everything that contained durian.

Fake Ice Cream for Display

Maybe it just me but I am sure that you guys will feel the same when your favorite class is over. Here are some pictures that I took for the exam day of culinary art class. It supposed to be a decoration “tumpeng”. But the time doesn’t allow us. So we made an ice cream for the final exam.

Carving Class

Oh hey guys!

            And hello…

            Again, I’m going to post something that I got from my class. And still in culinary art –because this class is so cool, I can’t handle it err- I attended a carving class. (Finally) Play with my knives. I had 3 knives which I always bring in my box and I use all of that right now.

            They hurt my fingers sometime, but it is fine because always there is the first time in everything. I’m the beginner so I apologies for the result. I’m doing every job with my team. Some of these pictures are also created by other groups. I’m not satisfied but I’m so happy with the results.

            We get little surprise because someone who teach us do carving is not a teacher from the college, he is an alumni who really good at this thing. He is pretty good looking. I brought my camera and I’m trying really hard to not take picture with him. He made me nervous too but I must be professional. Lol!

            We did it with some vegetables like carrots, tomatoes, zucchini, radish, chilly and scallions. In my opinion, doing radish is the hardest thing because they are so fragile and soft. I try to made roses and always fails. It is still very basics. I have to learn and practice more. I will always try and try so I can be an expert at this.

Indonesian Traditional Display Food

 If I know that this is what I am going to do, I will never ever regret for being in this major. Learn everything about food. Learn everything that really useful in real life. Everything we learn actually is something that we doing every time.

            I am proud with the result of my mid semester test in culinary art class. I am grateful for being in this team. Rifa and Ivan are so kind and easy to be work with. I love them bunch, yuhuuuuu! 

Okay, I am going to talk about the actual topic. We created a natural and semi traditional display food. And the foods we going to organize are mini traditional food. The foods are already there since forever ago in our hometown. Our theme to display our foods is ‘stage’. We want to make something look really stunning like Demi Lovato on stage. Well as you can tell, my favorite singer is Demi Lovato.

Ceker Setan, The Claws of Demon!

I found this place from Instagram. Well actually my friend did. We are all love to find any unique kind of food. Can you guess what it is? It is chicken fingers! Okay, the name of this place is “Ceker Setan” which means “Claws of Demons”. This –kind of café- offered chicken claw with 3 spicy levels. That was insane!

This kind of café usually offering 1 to 10 spicy level. Can you imagine there are only 3 levels? The range of the spicy is very far. That is why I order the spicy level 1. I love spicy food but I don’t want to take a risk because this was my very first time visiting this place.

Kue Cubit Green Tea

Well, here is the new label aka series on my blog. If you follow me on Instagram (which is Mareth08) probably you know that I'm a food student. I mean I learn everything about food. Pastry, bakery, cuisine and all the thing about hygiene, gastronomy, and tourism. Yeah I'm in tourism major and taking the foods program. The post will never end up if I explain about it LOL.

So I'm going to show you this kind of popular dessert from Indonesia. Actually it's traditional food from Jakarta, the capital city of Indonesia. But it is back with so many innovation in this era.

In Bandung, where I live. Kue Cubit is very popular, we can find it everywhere on the street.
