It can only be understood by your palette..."

Cosi

I went to Cosi in FX Sudirman, Jakarta last month with my fam. Cosi is kind of Hong Kong/Macau cafe (they said) and generally they serve Chinese Fusion food which I've never tried before.
And that time there is a 50% discount from 1 credit card for this restaurant, that's why we came here..hoho.

Our first order or my sister's order actually is the appetizer platter. Consists of baked mussel, potato wedges, roast duck (hoho), fried chicken wing, sauteed chicken, and coleslaw no the center of it.
It was so good. Honestly. I don't even understand why this kind of food can be so nice like this??
The wedges was absolutly hearthy with nice crispy skin. The mussel was so big and juicy. The roast duck was also good with nice layer of fat below the crispy skin, it was roasted perfectly. The chicken wing was the nicest chicken wing I've ever tried, it has crispy skin and a very nice batter covered it. The sauteed chicken..hmm..average and so does the coleslaw.
For overall, this appetizer platter will make you can't endure your bursting saliva..



Our next order is the champion of this restaurant that I forgot the name..T.T
It is a roast duck but not the roast duck we usually had. Coz they also serve both of them, the usual roast duck and "this" roast duck.
We ordered half instead of the whole duck coz we still have few orders to go. It served on a hotplate with sizzling sauce accompanied the roast duck. And truly this is so hot coz it burnt my tounge for the first bite..
The next bite really made me speechless..
This roast duck is the best ever roast duck I've ever had..
The skin is so crispy with a very nice layer of fat below the skin and the meat is so juicy and succulent that you can't endure not to take it more before the other finish it..
The sauce was a perfect accompanyment for the roast duck, since it boost the taste of the roast duck with a hint of sweetness and the usual hoisin sauce taste. Soo good..
I would give 5 star for this menu.



My order was noodle with beef brisket.
Hmm..average..
Noodle taste plain although the beef is so tender.


My dad's favourite! Porridge.
I forgot what kind of porridge this is, but it taste quite good..
Ta Wan's porridge taste better though..


My Mom and Dad..^ ^
We ordered Milo bread for the dessert.
Hmm..I'm sorry for this but I was disappointed with this one.
This bread is just so normal.
Nothing special as I expected before.
It's just bread with Milo powder and a little bit of condensed mild on top of it.
En Dining's Honey Bread is thousand times better than this.





Soo..
I do recommend Cosi so much especially it's "roast duck" and the appetizer platter..haha
Their other menu was also can be tolerated.
For your info, there is a live jazz piano performance below Cosi so it's an additional value for Cosi..
Andd.. I would give 7.5 out of 10 for Cosi..
