Valentine 2013 // Wet n Wild Giveaway Winners

Behold, the belated post of my Valentine's day dinner date at Scusa, a comfy, modern-stylish Italian restaurant located just inside Intercontinental Hotel, Jakarta. :)

\\ THE MENU \\

The menu was placed under this round glass, made a nice decor and also cleverly served as a placemat.

\\ THE FOOD \\

↑ Sweet Water Prawn Cocktail with preserved lemon ↑

↑ Lobster Bisque clams, langoustine and spinach tortellini ↑

↑ Sole Fillet zucchini and herb flan, tomato-basil chutney and saffron reduction ↑

↑ Wagyu Beef Tenderloin Parmesan potato cake and truffled veal jus ↑

↑ Chocolate Cake fresh cream, marinated strawberries and vanilla-almond ice cream ↑

\\ THE PLACE \\

The whole dinner experience was nice, the food was pretty in presentation but average in taste. The appetizers - Prawn Cocktail, Lobster Bisque and Sole Fillet were great, but we expected more for the main entry and dessert, which I thought weren't very good.

The ambience was casually romantic, the whole place was dimly lit, each table was presented with a pretty red rose for the lady and decorated with rose petals and a candle. A Jazz duo performing live on stage and romantic music would fill in whenever the musicians took a break or two.

Oh, and because it was Valentine's Day, the place was packed, I mean, REALLY packed with young couples dressing up and sitting across from each other, eating and throwing awkward conversations lol. So, if you are looking for a more private place, this might not be it. But if you're looking for a more casual-yet-you-can-still-dress-up fine dining moment, you know where to call:

"As you go through life you'll see there is so much that we don't understand."

–Lion King

The answer I've come to recently is the same old story in human history – there's simply so much that we still don't understand... even ourselves. There is so much to learn in this life and so much to experience, that's what makes it so interesting. Be curious, explore, learn and share. :)
