Lunch @ J.Co Donuts

Donuts?? and they're for lunch? hmm..well...yes..and no. I brought some gimbab along just in case donuts won't do just fine. I've been eager to have J.Co donuts when I got a chance. My craze for J.Co's been subdued due to the distance we had in between. J.Co Donuts have not yet opened any branches in Korea though they have the nearest one in Shanghai and Beijing. ^^ 

Are J.Co donuts so irresistibly delicious that I was madly in craze head over heel for savoring them in  my mouth? well....yes. It's that worth-it. 

but..wait...Freya.....what's with that look? You didn't want to eat? 

oh wait...this was not at donuts store anymore. We moved to Pempek Ny. Kamto...and...Freya..was like...'I wanted my donuts back!!!"ㅋㅋㅋ

even green balloons didn't excite her at all.

*oh, teh botol sosro= the must-have beverage in Indonesia.

Imlek 2014

 Imlek was on its way and all stores were pumped up to weigh up its sales by 'tricking' its customers to shop more and more. And I was one of the so-called 'victims' in this vicious cycle of consumerism. See?? I wouldn't have dared myself touching ...let alone picking up those red envelopes (called angpau in Indonesian), had I not spent *certain* amount of money at this store. ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

But, oh well..for the sake of having fun....let's go. 

This is what angpao hoki (red envelope of luck) may look like.
Instead of giving us money, it tempted us to SHOP MORE:) 

WHAT a GIMMICK!!! ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ 

now...come another story.----->>>>>>> 

The exterior was like the donuts shop that I know so well: J.Co Donuts.

but..it's NOT. 

oh...noooo...........:)

the concept and style is rather similar to that of J.Co.

Frankly speaking, I'd choose J.Co.

J.Co is the Best up to now.

But..too bad...I cannot find any J.Co in Seoul, yet.

Craving for Food: Way 2 Go in Kediri (J.Co-like^^ Donuts and Lombok Ijo)

Staying in Kediri for one week with my family back home was one of the memorable highlights of my 3-week vacation. Okay...dine-out was also one of the daily staples we had:_) hahaha....yes, I did gain weight. but..let's not talk about that. 

Here it is:  I was flabbergasted to find this donuts store back home. This one really resembles J.Co Donuts...to the bone??not quite. J.Co is still the BEST.

But this one was quite okay. The price was NOT, definitely, for with quite the same price...I could get J.Co. (which is once again...waaay much better).

but wait...the picture tells me that the kids loved these ones, too.

Well...kids. 

hmm what about this one?

I never thought that Lombok Ijo Restaurant also opens its branch in Kediri. What a treat.

Since I really wanted to go to this restaurant, we might as well give it a try.

The restaurant that serves traditional Indonesian food (with endless arrays of sambal) was sure to have my attention.

My wife and my Mom really loved the food. 

Smile, Mom. I am glad to have made the decision to come and dine in this restaurant.
