I
should punish my self for being not consistent in make a posting to
this blog. Last 2 weeks was the very busy weeks for me. I always fail to
make a new post, even if i get the idea for the topic. College world
stole my freedom. Now start with this post, i will make my blog
dominated by English language. Because my goal is to spreading the
beauty of Indonesia to the world, so i should use the language that
universally understandable. But bear in mind that i not a master of
English literature, so my grammar is far from perfect. But this is me, i
want to share with you our kindness as Indonesian.
Well
last week i went to an old fashioned ice cream shop in Semarang, Central
Java. This historical place not only provide the legendary ice cream,
but also complete restaurant with small bakery inside the shop. This
shop located in Pemuda Street 52 Semarang. With only a stone’s throw
away from super mall Paragon, and traditional market Johar, you will
feel the colonialism era in this place. Established in 1922, Toko Oen
was the first bakery shop in Jogjakarta, and then Toko Oen spread its
wings by opening the shop in Jakarta, Semarang and Malang. But now the
original shop is only Toko Oen in Semarang, since two shop in Jogja and
Jakarta were closed and shop in Malang were sold to other people.

After
a tired day shopping in Johar Market, i went to Toko Oen. Actually i
not that hungry, so during my way to Toko Oen, i only imagine to order
an ice cream to refreshing my mind from Semarang hot weather. But
suddenly, my mood to order an ice cream disappear, i curious to order an
poffertjes. Poffertjes is Germany traditional snack, a ball from flour
and egg cooked in “ball pan”, ball pan is like a pan but will make your
dough shaped like a ball. I ordered a poffertjes with chocolate and
cheese inside the ball.
Forgot that i already order a plate
of poffertjes, my desire to eat made me order another snacks like
ontbijtkoek kecil, roti telur, apple pie and mic mac. Totaly i felt
European warmth here. The poffertjes is very nice with chocolate and
cheese inside its soft skin. Also another cakes is good in my mouth with
its traditional taste created from mixed Chinese and Europe recipe.
Toko Oen is very recommended for you as a seeker pleasure. With its
European interior, and multi culture culinary. You will found various
culinary from Europe, Chinese, or even Indonesian culinary here.
