Creating a peaceful experience in a quiet corner of the city.
I always make a dream list to enjoy a peaceful breakfast. I never stop affirming it, because I really want peace.
In the past, I always had breakfast in a hurry and unfortunately I often skipped breakfast. Because there was work from my boss that I had to finish. That was the past and I've been through it.
Nowadays, I always prioritize a peaceful life. However, a peaceful life has risks that must be accepted. For example, you might not live in much wealth because you adapt slow living and no longer work hard to earn money. But money is not everything.
I woke up with a calm atmosphere in my chest. With a very grateful feeling. The surrounding area is beautiful. Full of colorful flowers. There is also still space for me to breathe fresh air!
Then, I stopped at a very quiet cafe for breakfast. I was very happy to experience this. So, I will share this experience with you. A breakfast with a cool atmosphere.
There is a cafe with a Javanese concept that reflects a distinctive tradition. Full of classic things that of course remind me of my grandmother's house in the past.
I sat in the outdoor area of the cafe. It looks like a terrace. With a cool atmosphere of trees. There are lots of ornamental flower plants planted and neatly arranged around the cafe area.
My order arrived. A breakfast package, with a local menu. Let me show you.
As an appetizer, I enjoyed fresh fruits. There are 3 choices of fruits. Melon, papaya, and watermelon. Favorite fruits to open a friendly meal menu!
The filling of the clear soup also contains tomato slices, and a little rice vermicelli. Then, sprinkled with fried onions.
Clear soup is also served with fried tofu and fried tempeh. Also, don't forget about spicy chili sauces.
I love how clear soup is warm and refreshing but also full of spices. Perfect for a cold morning.
I also enjoyed the surroundings while eating my delicious food. Shady trees, and oh look at the blooming orchids! I fell in love with the atmosphere of this cafe.
Not just one color. Not just one spot. But the orchids grow beautifully in many corners, precisely in the trees. It was really amazing!
Next, to close the beautiful atmosphere, I ate a sweet dessert. A traditional dessert that I also often make at home.
A sweet dish made from boiled mung beans, served with sweet coconut milk sauce with brown sugar. Also, the aroma of pandan leaves like vanilla.
Mung beans in coconut milk 🥰 creamy, savory, and also sweet in the same mouthful at once! What a truly peaceful breakfast!
