Teh Tarik in Little India, Penang

On the 3rd day in Penang, my colleagues and I had a city tour (Little India, China Town, Anglican Church, Kuan Yin Chinese Temple, Mahamariamman Indian Temple, Kapitan Keling Mosque).

Kapitan Keling Mosque, built in the 19th century by Indian Muslim traders in George Town.

 

 Kuan Im Teng temple at Jalan Masjid Kapitan Keling.

The famous "Little Children on a Bicycle" Mural at Armenian Street, George Town.

One thing for sure to have during a hot day is Teh Tarik. We managed to find a stall of Teh Tarik in Little India after walking around under the sun.

Brewing the tea leaves.

With hot water.

Added condense milk and also evaporated milk.

Pull... pull...pull....

Pour over the ice cubes in the plastic bag.

Starbucks Gambir Train Station

At the end of January, Starbucks just opened the 142nd Starbucks store at Gambir Station, Jakarta which it is the first store in a train station in Indonesia. The location of the store is strategically at the departure area where travelers can have their favorite beverage easily before or after their train journey. The brewing time is daily from 5 am to 8 pm.

Starbucks Indonesia introduced their Winter Beverage 2013, available from 8 January 2013 to 4 March 2013. There are three beverages: Hojicha Tea (roasted Japanese green tea) served in hot/iced Latte and Frapuccino, Starbucks Signature Chocolate and  Green Tea Latte with an additional espresso shot.

Green Tea Latte with an additional Espresso shot

Love it! Surprisingly that hot green tea latte blended so nicely with espresso :)

The food to be paired with the above beverages:

A buttery croissant filled with smoked chicken and cheese.

Tuna Cheese Whole Wheat Panini Sandwich - Rp. 35.000

Inside the Tuna Cheese Whole Wheat Panini Sandwich is mayonnaise, tuna mix filling, red green pepper and cheese.

Verona Cake - Rp. 22.000

Starbucks also introduced its four types of tea: Spearmint Green, English Breakfast, Chai, and Earl Grey.

I like this spearmint green. It tastes mild, soothing and refreshing.
