Greysuitcase Jakarta Restaurant Series: Gin Gin Bakery Shop ECO 8 Puri, Meruya Utara, West Jakarta, Indonesia.

Gin Gin Bakery Shop ECO 8 New Menu

Gin Gin Bakery Shop ECO 8
April 29, 2026 by greysuitcase in Food, Jakarta

If you live around West Jakarta, you’ve probably heard of Gin Gin Bakery Shop, that one kopitiam that’s located in the ECO 8 compound. Gin Gin menu revolves around a variety of typical dishes that one would find in a traditional kopitiam as well as an assortment of cakes and desserts ranging from classic kopitiam baked goods to modern cakes and tarts. The restaurant is spacious, pet friendly and has now become one of the go-to places for the locals around the area.

Last week, I went to Gin Gin with a couple of friends to try their new menus that just launched. Keeping with their friendly neighborhood kopitiam concept, the new menus still revolve around familiar dishes and tasty flavors that remind you of the comfort of home-cooked meals.

Cah Tahu Tauge (35k) | 8.5/10

Simple, straightforward dish with a nice light savory flavors. The seasoning wasn’t heavy-handed and the bean sprouts and tofu were stir fried just the right, making them tender but still retaining that crunchy texture to the bite. I’m very picky with my beansprouts (especially the raw ones or the ones with even slightly raw taste), but this one, I actually liked and I kept finding myself reaching for more.

Chicken Chop Curry Rice (75k) | 8.5/10

*With Nasi Porang / Shirataki (95k)
The chicken was tender and has a really nice breading that’s pleasantly crispy and not too hard. The curry was also good. Not too heavy, not too light and it kind of reminded me of the Kari Peng’s curry if you have had one of those before. Although in Kari Peng, the curry is slightly thicker and more gravy-like while Gin Gin’s curry is thinner/more runny.

Mee Sua Kuah Kari Ayam Kampung (65k) | 8/10

The curry broth was also on the lighter side on this dish, reminiscence of Clear Chicken Soto (Soto Ayam Kuning) for me to be honest. The chicken was sweet and tender and the mee sua also has a nice soft silky texture that’s not too mushy. Although it did absorb the broth pretty fast so make sure you eat it soon after it’s served.

Nasi Kari Babi Cincang (55k) | 7/10

*With Nasi Porang / Shirataki (95k)
The curry is actually the same as the Chicken Chop Curry Rice, just different protein on this one. The ground pork itself was good, but the combination of the pork and the curry was just not hitting it for me. For some reason, I like the chicken curry combination better than the pork. BUT, given the low pricing on this one, this could be a good option for a cheap meal or if you’re into pork more than chicken.

Telur Tim 2 Rasa (59k) | 9/10

Steam egg with chicken, mushroom and ground pork in soy sauce. The steam egg was silky smooth. The chicken, mushroom and ground pork were nicely seasoned. Although worth noting, you have to eat the toppings with either the egg or rice because they do taste saltier if you eat them by themselves. But the flavor and saltiness level were more balanced when you eat them with the steamed egg or rice in one bite. Super comforting dish and probably my favorite dish during this meal.

Osmanthus Tie Guan Yin Milk Tea (42k) | 8.5/10

*Almond Milk substitution adds 15k
Forgot to take picture of this drink but it’s the one on the top right on the photo below. Enjoyed the floral fragrant from the Osmanthus and the milk tea taste was pretty unique and uncommon (in a good way). Could be a little sweet for people who has low tolerance for sweetness, but since mine is not that low, this was still okay for me.

Misua Kueh Ham Babi (Carrot Cake Style) (60k) | 8.5/10

Eating this dish was like eating fried carrot cake, but with slightly different ingredients. The flavors were pretty bold with that smokey, savory, umami hit. Love the crispy fried shallot/onions they added that gave a nice texture contrast to the dish. Definitely one of my favorites from their new menus.

Since they just released the menus, the restaurant is still taking feedbacks from customers about the flavors so there might be little tweaks here and there in the upcoming weeks for the new dishes. But overall, even as is, the new menus are solid additions to the current menu that they have. A lot of variety for everybody to choose from and that’s also why this place is popular for family meals. Also, they’re currently having a 20% discount launch promo (T&C applies. Check their Instagram for more details) for the new menus until this Sunday (May 3) so go visit Gin Gin this week if you want to use this deal.

Greysuitcase Jakarta Bakery Series: Kooma Bakery Plaza Senayan, Central Jakarta, Indonesia.

Kooma Bakery Plaza Senayan

Kooma Bakery Plaza Senayan
April 27, 2026 by greysuitcase in Jakarta, Bakery

Kooma Bakery is a an artisan Japanese Bakery that first opened in Jakarta last September at Plaza Indonesia. They sell 30+ variety of Japanese breads made with imported premium ingredients from Japan that are baked fresh daily using Japanese traditional technique called ‘Yudane’ that resulted in a very soft, light and fluffy texture for all their breads. 

 

“Yudane 湯種(ゆだね) is a traditional Japanese approach to breadmaking that is sometimes referred to as ‘water roux’. This technique involves the use of mixing flour and water together. A simple step that makes bread go from good to great - soft, fluffy and stays just as pillowy and fresh long after baking.” —Kooma Bakery

 

With the variety of delicious breads that they have and the affordable price, people lined up bright and early for these breads, causing the shop to often sells out as early as 11 am (they open at 10 am). And six months after the successful opening of their first outlet at Plaza Indonesia, Kooma Bakery opened its second outlet just earlier this month at Plaza Senayan. And yes, they still sell out as early as 11 am at this location as well so make sure you go early if you want choose from their full line up of breads. 

Greysuitcase Jakarta Bakery Series: Kooma Bakery Plaza Senayan, Central Jakarta, Indonesia.

My first visit to Kooma Bakery is actually to this Plaza Senayan location. I was with my friend who already went during their grand opening a couple of weeks ago and told me that I should try this new bakery that just opened at Plaza Senayan that always sells out their stuff shortly after they open. Since we arrived at Plaza Senayan early—we arrived at the mall around 9:55 am, five minutes before the bakery opens—we ended up lining up in front of the store to get our hands at these delicious breads. We’re actually the first ones in line and after we lined up, there were people who joined in behind us and it was quite a bit of a crowd. Not super long, but pretty long for a weekday I’d say. 

When the clock hit 10 am and the staff opened the store, everybody was just rushing inside to pick their bread. I was pretty shocked at people’s enthusiasm honestly. But I guess it’s understandable because there’s limited quantity for each bread and there were already quite a number of people who were bread hunting with us. And tell me why I entered the store having no idea what this bakery is all about (and have no intention of buying bread when coming to this mall honestly) and ended up walking out of the bakery with almost 300k worth of bread. I blame my friend really for introducing me to Kooma. Just kidding. I’m glad she did because the bread variety that they have are really unique and uncommon and it made me want to try everything. Plus she gave me recommendations on the good ones she tried already and before I know it, I ended up with two full trays of bread (she even helped me carry one of them). Because it was so hectic, not all the bread that I bought I took pictures of (and vice versa) and remember the jot down price but I’ll put the reviews on the ones I tried below.

Tuna Onigiri (28k)

Greysuitcase Jakarta Bakery Series: Kooma Bakery Plaza Senayan, Central Jakarta, Indonesia.

Black Sesame Yuzu (25k) | 6.5/10

Was excited when I saw this flavor since I’m a sucker for all things black sesame but I don’t think this combo works for me. Flavor-wise, I think for me the yuzu flavor was a bit too overpowering so it’s more citrusy than earthy. If you like citrus flavor, you’ll probably enjoy this one. But if you’re like me who were expecting more of a dominant black sesame flavor with hints of yuzu, you might be in for a surprise.

Kare Pan (25k)

Honey Bear

Purple Sweet Potato Bun (25k) | 8.5/10

Purple sweet potato coating on the outside with sweet potato paste and chewy, stretchy mochi on the inside. Not too sweet and definitely a hit for sweet potato lovers. Pretty good!

Melon Pan

Sesame | 9/10

The black sesame paste is really nice and earthy and not too sweet. Love this one. 

Greysuitcase Jakarta Bakery Series: Kooma Bakery Plaza Senayan, Central Jakarta, Indonesia.

Yuzu | 8/10

The bread has a nice and fluffy texture and the yuzu jam and cream combination is tangy, light and refreshing. Also not too sweet.

Matcha Azuki (25k)

Hojicha White Chocolate (26k) | 9/10

There’s no filling on this one but I kind of like that about this bread. The hojicha and white chocolate combo works really well and it’s not too sweet. One of my favorites from my haul.

Greysuitcase Jakarta Bakery Series: Kooma Bakery Plaza Senayan, Central Jakarta, Indonesia.

Mochi Peanut Chocolate | 9/10

Love their mochi. It has a satisfying nice, soft, chewy bite. The combination of the peanut and chocolate also works well.

Sausage Roll (28k)

Almond Roll

Overall, their bread is really soft and fluffy, even when I ate some of them the next day (and even some the day after that) and their mochi texture is really nice and chewy. And the flavors that they are offering are not something that you usually find at other bakeries. If you’re ever in Plaza Senayan (or Plaza Indonesia) and happened to pass by Kooma Bakery, definitely recommend you to try their breads. A whole lot of variety of flavors and sizes and great for breakfast or snacking.

Greysuitcase Jakarta Cafe Series: Hvala Jakarta, Gandaria, South Jakarta, Indonesia.

Hvala Jakarta

Hvala Jakarta
April 20, 2026 by greysuitcase in Cafe, Jakarta

If you’re a Singaporean or an Indonesian who has been to Singapore, there’s a good chance you’ve probably heard of Hvala (pronounced as ‘fa-lah’), one of the OG matcha spots in Singapore that has been around for more than a decade. With five locations in Singapore, they are now expanding beyond Singapore and opened their first international location in Indonesia.

Hvala Jakarta opened their door to the public yesterday (Sunday, April 19), bringing their matcha creations from Singapore to Jakarta. The cafe occupies a pretty spacious building with matcha bar, indoor and outdoor area with ample seatings for solo patrons as well as bigger groups. 

Their menu focuses on a variety of matcha drinks and desserts that are similar to their outlets in Singapore. For their ceremonial matcha powder, they offer four different choices for you to choose from. Three of the powders—Hikari, Sei, and Haru—are from Japan and one powder—Panda—is from China. And instead of the usual 3-4 grams matcha powder per cup, at Hvala they actually use 7 grams of matcha powder per cup with the option of additional extra shot, topping it up to 9 grams per cup. You can choose anything from straight matcha, tea latte, flavored tea latte, ice blend, cold brew, to brewed tea and pair it with the selections of desserts, gelato and sliced cakes that’s on the menu.

I came here with my friend to try their matcha drinks and desserts and here are what we ordered:

🍵 Iced Sei Matcha Latte (140k) | 8.5/10

Advanced Ceremonial Grade. Notes: Nori, Cocoa, Toasted Nut.

Their Iced Sei Matcha is very balanced. Tasted all the flavor notes and it wasn’t too bitter. Enjoyed this drink.

🧇🍨 Dairy-Free Waffles (120k) | 8.5/10

Dairy-free waffles drizzled with golden syrup, with a sprinkle of fragrant genmai (toasted rice). Served with a gelato scoop. 

The waffle has a bit of a chewy texture and not too sweet. For the gelato, we chose the White Chrysanthemum Sobacha and the Matcha °3 gelato. I think this was my first time trying a White Chrysanthemum Sobacha flavored gelato and it’s actually pretty good. It’s a little on the sweeter side for my personal preference but still okay if you eat it with the waffle. The Matcha °3 gelato actually balanced out the sweetness pretty well because it’s not too sweet. Overall, this is a great dessert for sharing.

🍨 Warabi Mochi with Black Sesame Gelato (110k) | 10/10

Warabi mochi served with a gelato scoop.

So excited for this menu because I got two of my favorite things in one cup and they didn’t disappoint. This was really gooood. They nailed the Warabi mochi’s texture and flavor and it has the right amount of sweetness. The black sesame gelato has the perfect balance of nuttiness and sweetness as well. Will definitely order this again next time I go back.

🍵 Ice Blend Hojicha (120k) | 9.5/10

Another one of my personal favorite. Their Ice Blend Hojicha was goood. I actually enjoyed this the most out of all the drinks we ordered (but also a disclaimer, in general I think I prefer hojicha than matcha). It’s not too bitter and the nutty flavor was well balanced. A great choice for a dessert drink, especially on a hot sunny day.

🍵 Iced Sakura Matcha (100k) | 8/10

Was skeptical at first and thought that I wasn’t going to like this one because I tend to not enjoy floral flavored drinks too much but it was actually pretty enjoyable after I tried it. There’s definitely a hint of that floral flavor in the matcha, but it wasn’t too overwhelming so the matcha flavor still shone through. A good option if you want something light and floral that reminds you of spring.

Greysuitcase Jakarta Cafe Series: Hvala Jakarta, Gandaria, South Jakarta, Indonesia.

🍵 Iced Banana Pudding Matcha (120k) | 8/10

The banana pudding is vegan.

First time trying Iced Banana Pudding Matcha and at first I thought it’s going to be matcha with hints of banana pudding flavor. But surprisingly, the banana pudding flavor really came through. This tasted like a dessert drink and a little heavier than the other matcha drinks that we ordered. If you like Banana Pudding, you’ll probably enjoy this one.

Greysuitcase Jakarta Cafe Series: Hvala Jakarta, Gandaria, South Jakarta, Indonesia.

All and all, I really enjoyed the drinks and desserts that we ordered. Service was also pretty good during our visit. The staff was friendly and attentive and we didn’t really wait too long for our orders. Other thing to note, parking space is limited in front of the cafe but they have valet available for your convenience. 

Given that the matcha craze still going on right now, Hvala Jakarta is probably going to be one of the go-to spots for matcha enthusiasts in the city.

Greysuitcase Jakarta Restaurant Series - Sutbul PIK, Golf Island, Pantai Indah Kapuk, North Jakarta, Indonesia.

Sutbul PIK

Sutbul PIK
May 04, 2025 by greysuitcase in Food, Jakarta

Sutbul is a new contemporary Korean dining restaurant that just opened in Golf Island PIK February this year. Focusing on traditional menus with a modern twist, Sutbul offers a variety of unique menus that are different from the dishes one usually find in a typical Korean restaurant in Jakarta. They also prided themselves in their meat cooking techniques where they use imported meat grilling rack from Korea with Binchotan charcoal, the purest charcoal on earth that burns with constant heat bringing out the best flavors in the meat it cooks.

The traditional meets modern concept also extends to the design of the interior of the restaurant. Although the choice of furnitures and fixtures decorating the space feel modern, there’s a certain air of nostalgia exuded by the burnt amber ceramic tiles and the beautiful Korean folklore traditional prints adorning the walls. This two-story restaurant feels stylish and modern but still warm and welcoming at the same time, making it a perfect place to go to if you feel like dressing up for a special occasion or for a casual meal with friends and family.

To start off the meal, they provide you with complimentary corn tea and seven different kinds of banchan. The banchan selections change from time to time but some of the permanent ones (at least the ones that I always got during my multiple visits to this place) are the sweet potatoes, fishcakes, pajeon/pancakes and the pickled onions. And I can say that their banchans are really good.

🍞 Makgeolli Bread 막걸리빵 (59k) | 10/10

Korean Rice Wine Bread, Charcoal Butter

Served in a steaming bamboo container, the Makgeolli bread is warm, soft and chewy. The texture reminded me of Indonesian’s Kue Mangkok, but softer and fluffier. The Makgeolli taste in the bread is subtle and not too sweet. For me though, as delicious as the bread is, the best thing about this dish is the charcoal butter. You got to dip the bread into the charcoal butter and get that combination of sweet and salty from the butter and salt. It’s soooo good. Easily one of my best new food finds this year and I’ve been ordering this on my subsequent visits to Sutbul since the first time I’ve had this. Although instead of having this as an appetizer, I now have this as a dessert.

🐟 Salmon Jang 연어장 (30k/slice) | 8.5/10

Soy Marinated Salmon, Onion

In Korean cuisine, “Jang” (장) refers to a family of traditional fermented sauces that are fundamental to Korean cooking. For the salmon jang, they are using Korean fermented soy sauce (ganjang 간장) so the taste of the soy sauce is different than the ones usually served with sushi or sashimi in a Japanese restaurant (don’t expect it to be the same flavor). The sauce tasted closer to the Korean soy marinated crab (ganjang gaejang  간장 게장) if you’ve ever had one of those. Taste wise, I think they really nailed the Korean flavor profile on the soy sauce. And the salmon pieces were fresh and thick with generous portion.

🥩 Yukhoe 육회 (Wagyu Picanha MB7 80g 250k) | 8/10

Raw Beef, Pear, Seaweed

The raw beef is fresh and cut nicely. The flavor of this dish is on the bolder side since they use soy sauce to marinate the beef (thus the slightly darker color of the meat) and the fresh yolk also added to the creaminess of the overall taste after being mixed together. The pear slices were sweet and fresh and worked really well to add a brighter note to the dish. I do wish the beef tartare is slightly colder than the room temperature that it was served on (but also, I was taking pics of the food for a while so it may contribute the temperature of the meat. Not too sure about this).

🍜  Perilla Cold Noodles 들기름 국수 (110k) | 10/10

Capellini Pasta, Perilla Oil, Perilla Leaves, Perilla Seeds, Seaweed

This is their signature menu that I haven’t seen anywhere else in Jakarta (at least as of now when I’m writing this post. If there’s other restaurant that’s serving this, I probably haven’t heard of it yet). Just like the name suggest, the flavor of this dish screams perilla, but in a nice refreshing way. The pasta is cooked al dente and the dish is really nicely seasoned with earthy, umami and creamy (but not too creamy and more on the lighter end of creamy) flavors. The seaweed powder also added a nice savoriness to the dish. If you like sesame oil or black sesame, roasted soybean, Korean mugwort flavored things like me, you’ll probably enjoy this dish. This is also a perfect dish to have during one of the hot days in Jakarta when you want something light and refreshing and it has become one of the menu that I always order on my every visit.

🥩 Thick Cut Ox Tongue 우설 150g (425k) | 6/10

The Ox Tongue cuts were nice, thick and well seasoned but the texture was a bit tough and too chewy for my personal taste.

Greysuitcase Jakarta Restaurant Series - Sutbul PIK, Golf Island, Pantai Indah Kapuk, North Jakarta, Indonesia.

🥩 Beef Platter (1,450k) | 8/10

150g Sirloin (Top Left), 150g Chuck Flap (Top Right), 150g Rib Eye (Bottom)

The meat were nicely cooked although some pieces are a bit burnt on the outside so I took some point off for that. The Chuck Flap was the thickest one, has more fat and the juiciest out of the three cuts. I enjoyed this one the most. The other two are more on the leaner side but still enjoyable.

🍰 Hotteok Ice Cream 호떡 아이스크림 (79k) | 8/10

Glutinous Rice Pancake, Brown Sugar, Cinnamon, Walnut, Vanilla Ice Cream

Pretty good dessert although it’s a tiny bit sweet for my personal taste. The portion is pretty generous though so make sure you leave some room in your stomach if you want to order this dessert or share it with the table.

Other dishes that I’ve tried during my subsequent visits (when I didn’t bring my camera so I have no pictures of the individual dish other than this one below) are:

🍽️ Sogogi Gukbap 소고기 국밥 (130k) | 9/10

Beef Bone Soup, Beef Shank, Shimeji, Shiitake, White Rice

A comforting bowl of soup with generous toppings of beef chunks, mushrooms, radish, zucchini (I think. Cmiiw), green onions and eggs. Unlike the usual white/clear soup gukbap that I always had, the soup on this one is red and reminded me of jjigae (Korean stew) style soup, only less concentrated and lighter. It is a bit spicy for me who can’t handle spicy food well, but for people who does, this is probably not spicy at all. 

🥩 Pork Belly 200g 삼겹살 (168k) | 9/10

One of the better pork belly in this price range that I’ve had in a Korean restaurant around PIK area. Nicely cooked pieces of meat that were crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside. 

🥩 Pork Jowl 200g 항정살 (168k) | 9/10

Their pork jowl is also delicious. Same comment as the pork belly, nicely cooked pieces of meat that were crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside. And this one is more tender than the pork belly. 

🥩 Marinated Pork Collar 200g 양념목살 (168k) | 7/10

This one’s a bit tricky. The marination of the meat was really delicious but the texture of the pieces of meat that we got were not consistent. When I tried this, I went with two of my friends and the pieces of meat that I had were good and nice, but they got the tougher pieces so it was not as enjoyable for them as it was for me (I took some points off because of this). But we all agreed that the marination sauce is really good.

After my visit, I also recommended this place to a couple of my friends who went and ordered this menu. The result was 50-50. Half of them got great pieces of meat, half of them got tougher meat. I ended up asking about this to the manager during one of my subsequent visits and he told me that as of right now, they’re still continuously trying to address the inconsistency of the meat. So if you want to try this menu, maybe ask the server first if you’ll be getting a good piece of meat or not on that day before ordering (they could probably tell you by seeing the meat they have in stock that day). Honestly the dish is pretty good, it’s just if you got tougher pieces of meat, it won’t be as enjoyable so I just want to put it out there as a disclaimer. 

I have been back to Sutbul numerous times for dine-in and take-out since my first visit and I have to say (apart from the pork collar) their food is consistently good. My go-to menus usually are: Perilla Cold Noodles (you got to try this if this is your first visit to Sutbul), Sogogi Gukbap, and the Makgeolli Bread. For the meat, pork jowl and pork belly are probably the top two meat options right now since I haven’t tried the rest of the beef cuts just yet and their pork meat prices are pretty affordable.

Service at this restaurant is also really good. Super friendly staff (for introverts it could be bordering on too friendly though since the staff’s energy level is pretty high. Just an FYI) and prompt service. The place is also pet friendly so if you want to bring your furry friends with you, you definitely can. If you’re looking for a Korean restaurant with less than traditional menu, I would totally recommend this place to try. And with how frequent I’ve been to this place lately, who knows, you might bump into me too (say hi if you do!).

Greysuitcase Jakarta Cafe Series: UKI Matcha ECO8 Puri, Meruya Utara, West Jakarta, Indonesia.

UKI Matcha ECO8 Puri

UKI Matcha - ECO8 Puri
May 01, 2025 by greysuitcase in Cafe, Jakarta

After the opening of their flagship store in SCBD Park last March, UKI Matcha has established themselves as one of the best matcha bars in Jakarta. Just shy a year after the success of their first location, they have now opened the second location of UKI Matcha at ECO8 Puri. Although the store still carry the same aesthetics from its sister location, the selections of ceremonial matcha powders are different from the ones offered at the SCBD location. They also have a couple of menus that are exclusive to this location, giving patrons different experiences when visiting their stores.

Tried a couple of different things from their menu and overall they’re all pretty good, but here are some of my favorites (and I believe all these menus are only available at this location):

🍵 Pistachio Matcha (Tenka 104k / Asagiri 134k) | 9.5/10 

Tenka/Asagiri Matcha, Milk, Pistachio Foam, Crushed Pistachio

Their Pistachio Matcha is so good! Both matcha options are good but I prefer the Asagiri Matcha because it tasted nuttier than the Tenka Matcha that has a more bitter profile. This drink is super creamy and nutty and I love the Pistachio foam that’s sweet and salty at the same time. The crushed pistachio also gave a fun texture contrast to the drink. Ordered with normal sugar and it’s not sweet at all (all their matcha drinks are really not too sweet in general). If you’re a pistachio fan, definitely give this drink a try. Even if you’re not a pistachio fan like me (I’m kinda mid with pistachio flavored stuff) but you like a creamier drink I think you’d enjoy this one.

🍵 Mango Matcha (65k) | 8/10

Tenka Matcha, Milk, Real Mango Coulis

I honestly don’t know how you’re suppose to drink this one but in the beginning, I tried to sipped the drink as is with all the layers still stacked on top of each other. Depending on which part of the drink I sipped it from, it resulted in a variety of different flavors. First time, the end of my straw was on the bottom of the glass so the first flavor that I got was just the Mango Coulis which was a bit too sweet for me. Then I mixed the matcha and the milk together and tried sipping it from slightly above the Mango Coulis and on that sip I only tasted the matcha flavor with a teeny tiny hint of mango flavor. In the end, I did mix the whole thing together and it tasted more balanced. This drink’s slightly on the sweeter side (sweeter than the Pistachio Matcha) but the combination of mango and matcha actually works.

🍡 Warabi Mochi (65k / Whole Box 160k) | 10/10

Warabi Mochi, Tenka Matcha Honey

Hands down THE BEST Warabi Mochi I’ve had in Jakarta so far. The texture of this mochi reminded me of the ones I had in Japan. They really nailed it. The more bitter matcha honey also balanced out the sweetness of the mochi. Honestly, I can probably eat one whole portion of this alone without the honey cause the mochi is already that good.

My first visit to the ECO8 location was during their opening week and the place was packed. There was never-ending long lines at the counter of people who came in to get their matcha fix for dine-in as well as for to-go. The long queue seems to be still going on during the weekends too these days judging by the Instagram stories they uploaded. So be prepared to wait for tables or for your orders if you’re planning to visit on the weekends. The second time I went was during a weekday around lunch time. This time, the place wasn’t too packed and the atmosphere’s actually pretty enjoyable. So if you want to avoid the crowd, visiting on a weekday is probably your best bet. If you’re looking for a great matcha bar in Meruya/Puri/West Jakarta area, definitely check this place out.
