Magnum Cafe

Magnum Cafe - outdoor

Today, JenzCorner, Urukyu, The Yummy Traveler and I were invited for a fast food chain's food tasting in Grand Indonesia mall. After the food tasting session, most of us were still feeling a bit hungry because the food during the food tasting was pretty light thus we decided to look for snack and dessert inside the mall.

When we passed the Magnum Cafe, it came to our surprise there was no line of people at all as usual.  Without any second thoughts, we directly went inside it. Well, as soon as we were inside, we could see this place was almost packed. Good thing, we still got a table.



Calamari Vindaloo - Rp. 35.000
Curry fried calamari  with kafir lime sauce. The calamari was well seasoned.

Champignon Frit - Rp. 25.000
Deep fried mushrooms with tartar sauce. Nice spongy mushrooms.

Crepes de Leuven - Rp. 35.000
Black forest crepes with dark chocolate truffle magnum stick, chocolate shavings, and cherry compote. I think the sweet sour cherry compote made a balance for the overwhelmed chocolate.

Left: Mont. St. Aubert - Rp. 29.000
Vanilla magnum shake with a mountain of crumbled Oreos, hazelnuts and whipped cream.
Right: Cafe du Belge - Rp. 29.000
I definitely will order this blended chocolate truffle magnum stick with fresh espresso and molten chocolate syrup. It's really good!

All price subjected to 5% service charge and 10% PB1 government tax.
Current currency: 1 USD = Rp. 9.550
