 Restaurant
Price : 6/10
Service : 6/10
Atmosphere and Environment : 8/10

 Beautika is a huge restaurant with classic elegant design.
When you come in, you can choose first floor or second.
First floor is too crowded for me, so I choose second floor.
Service, nothing special for me.
If you want to order, go to food bar,
and choose something what you want.
Price is too expensive. But for some menu, it's worth it.



Panada (8.5k++)
Taste : 7/10
Texture : 6/10
Presentation : 7/10
Panada is something like "pastel" in Indonesia.
Panada was called "empanada" in Portuguese,
and it stuffed with shredded cakalang fish, seasoned with panpis.
Panpis is consists of red onion, red chili, basil and lime leaves.
The taste is light, not too strong and too spicy.
The texture is a little bit too dense,
the composition is not balance.
Color is good, golden brown, and looked appetizing.



Pisang Goreng Kipas (10k++ / pieces)
Taste : 7/10
Texture : 8/10
 Presentation : 7/10
It's deep fried banana with "sambal teri".

It's totally different way of fried banana!



Perkedel Jagung (9.5k++ / pieces)
Taste : 9/10
Texture : 9/10
Presentation : 8/10
  It's made from corn, spring onion, garlic and red onion.
Maybe you can say it "corn fritter"

and the corn success to become the star in this menu.
Super crunchy and beautiful golden brown color.
Love it so much!



Ayam Woku (45k++)
Taste : 7/10
Texture : 6/10
Presentation : 8/10 
It's chicken seasoned with "woku".
Woku is something like salsa consists of 
cayenne pepper, spring onion, red onion and lime leaves.
For me, the chicken is too dry and not juicy.
Taste, is good especially if you are spicy addict!
It looks beautiful and colorful.
If you have "phobia" with spicy, don't try it!!! 
 


Cakalang Rica-rica (45k++)
Taste : 8/10
Texture : 9/10
Presentation : 8/10
It well seasoned, and 
the "rica-rica" taste is beautiful and super balance.

 Color is shining and looks "spicy hell".
But, trust me it's spicy heaven!



Klapertart (29k++)
 Taste : 5/10
Texture : 7/10
Presentation :8/10
It's classic authentic dessert from Manado!
Made from coconut, milk, butter and egg.
 Unfortunately, this Klapertart taste is not good enough, 
not too sweet, and the cinnamon is too dominant.
The texture is like custard, moist and creamy.
I like the walnut and raisins on the top of this Klapertart.
Give different crunchy texture in this creamy dessert.
Presentation, looks sweet and gorgeous!

because it looks pale and deserted.

Sushi Tei the other part : Sushi Mood Mode On!


This is it!
Sushi, one of most favorite Japanese food in my mind.
The roll of Japanese Rice, seafood, vegetable and the sauce 
become a super damn good combination. 
Now, we can find some variation of sushi 
in Japanese restaurant like Sushi Tei.



Jumbo Dragon Roll (85k++)
Taste : 8/10
Texture : 8/10
Presentation : 7/10 
The sushi combination of shrimp tempura, 
avocado, grilled eel, cucumber and sauce. 
Taste is really good, and I think the size are super big 
(maybe because the name is "Jumbo"). 
Texture is great and complex because the tempura is crispy, 
but the avocado and grilled eel are moist and soft. 
Must try it! (But I hope the presentation must be better)
