This is my second visit to Jakarta for business trip. I am staying in Le Meridien again, but this time I get to stay in at the Starwood Preferred Guest Floor. Don't ask me - until now, I still can't see any difference staying at the floor.
Both trip was a very rushing trip. During my first trip, I took cab to Plaza Indonesia and Senayan City. The shopping malls here are superb! To be honest, its much more gigantic than any of those in KL.
Last night my colleague brought me to Grand Indonesia (which is just next to Plaza Indonesia). We had dinner at Y&Y restaurant serving rice, pasta, and steak...We shared a lot cultural difference etc. And later, he brought me to a local street called 'Jalan Pecendongan' to experience the local street food. We went for desert by the street. For once, I get to feel a very local experience. I had 'Es Shanghai' (Es = Ais). The serving is like our local Ais Kacang but for 'Es Shanghai' - the ingredient is Coconut, avacodo and banana...I tried the otak-otak as well. The wrap is the same with Johor Otak Otak but the otak-otak itself tasted like fish ball. The unique thing about this otak-otak is we have it by dipping into peanut sauce...
Am going on board to MH710 - looking forward to go home now :)
