I am a seasoned, experienced, yet severe and unmerciful in food criticisms and restaurant reviews.
Since gastronomy consists of complex aspects and that is where my passion lies, I decided to unravel how businessmen, hawkers and luxurious restaurants alike, serve their dishes for the patrons.
Whether they only serve for the advantages in taste or only the surroundings or whether they really throw anything for the sake of customer’s satisfaction, I shall be solely the only one who can tell and in the name of this noble profession, justice shall be done!

Nice start. Keep it up Bro.
maybe you should try to publish about your own cuisine! but first you should start to cook again! ^^
You sure know where this will lead. A new fresh start of me taking my love for food to the level. Of course, I’m gonna start recognizing the ingredients from their names, forms, and smell, then I’m gonna cook and experiencing the joy in it, the neverending experiments plus most of all, I’m gonna share the fun with everyone! My dreams are bigger than life, ayay. Just wait and see! ^^

Dear Rian,
I’m including your blog in the list I build on Indonesian Food Bloggers here:
+ http://epicurina.blogspot.com/2010/07/indonesian-food-bloggers.html
As the list is just starting, and I’m reviewing each one of them, you can see for yourself that the list is still quite short. Therefore, should you have any recommendations kindly please inform me and I would include it in my list along with some comments. The criteria is simple; it generally contains writings on Indonesian food, and is done in English.
Best regards,
Bayu Amus

Hi, nice to meet you !
Hello and welcome! Feel free to join my adventure! ^^
You seem to have tons of dining experience and yet somehow manage to keep your almost slim figure. Could you give us some tips on that ?
A very interesting remark and question!
Anyway, I’m not that ‘slim’ like you said but probably what I can say actually that I manage to keep my meals not more than the usual 3 times a day and not abusing it. Snacks? Not too often as well and I’m not really into sweets.
Hope that would help but nonetheless always remember that we are all in shape actually. Round is a shape!
