Hooters, Kemang, Jakarta, Indonesia

Hooters has come to Jakarta! Really, this is one of the boldest moves in the restaurant industry in Indonesia, which is home to the biggest Islamic population in the world. The American restaurant chain serves food (chicken wings!) and drinks in a sports bar setting, with a slight twist – your meals are served by Hooters Girls – ladies in skimpy-tight outfits which leave little to the imagination. Their mascot is an owl (“hooter”) and the double-O’s may represent something else entirely…

How does it feel to dine with such unusual concept here in Jakarta? Let’s take a look!

John Smith Café, Waterloo, Sydney

A while ago I discovered this breakfast place in Waterloo, and subsequently this post was prepared a long, long time ago, but for some reason I’d never uploaded it. Nevertheless, they were memorable and I would like to share my experience with you. Their menu options may have changed now but judging from my visit, they should still be one of the breaky places to visit.

When you visit Sydney, you’ll notice a plethora of available food varieties everywhere you go, including the food courts, thanks to the diversity of the people of Sydney. It’s hard to keep track of the varieties sometimes. However, there is a dish that all Aussies know by heart: Fish ‘n Chips.

Barmuda Cafe, Newtown, Sydney

I love Newtown. Every time I come to this suburb of Sydney, there are always some restaurants catching my eye. This time, located just behind the you-can’t-miss-it pink building (photos below) is this classic-looking Barmuda Café. Conveniently it is just a stone-throw away from the infamous Black Star Pastry (review coming soon!).
