Ice Durian Ovomaltine

I finally sat down and eat in OTW food street. The recent hip place in Kelapa Gading. Always crowded with people and only open in the evening.

I came with a group of friends who's as curious as I was. So we queued and surprisingly we wait for a while and then we're called to our table. Quite fast actually, i didn't expect that. OTW street food is actually somekind of food court concept. It consist of 4 different food joint - martabak, drinks, dessert (cendol and durian and Kue Cubit) and the main course (noodles, rice and burgers). You order them on the respective seller, pay them first and the food will be delivered to your table. 

Getting a table was fast but a different story in queuing to order and food delivery. They really did take quite sometime. The queue for ordering in the main course section was.. not really long, but each customer took sometime to order. Basically because they didn't put a big menu where everyone can see and choose while they wait and not enough menu books. And the cashier was not being helpful, i mean she could really hasten the ordering proses but i find her somewhat slow in responding when i ordered. And the food getting out from their kitchen is really sloooowwww, i didn't count but i'm guessing we're waiting around 30 minutes until we can get our Long John. The rice meal was quicker to be delivered. Kinda weird, because i'd assumed that rice meal needs time to prepare while burger and sandwich is basically half prepared already. But that's what happen. *shrugs*

The black squid fried rice (Nasi goreng hitam) taste quite good in my opinion. This is my first time eating squid ink fried rice. So i can't compare to any other, but i found it taste ok. Different from usual fried rice and to compare them i think i prefer the usual one, but this one quite appetising XD While the long john taste like.. I almost can't taste any beef, only bread and tomato sauce and mayonnaise. Though they did grilled the bun so it's a bit crunchy on the inside but nothing special. Beef patty should be a better choice but they haven't sell the Long John with beef patty yet. And another let down is they don't have french fries!!!! I love to have the burgers with french fries.

The Durian ovomaltine though... YUMMY!!!! i really love it!!!! Shaved ice, durian juice, grass jelly, chocolate ice cream and then poured with a squirt of ovomatine. Apart from the grass jelly, i thought it's pretty good combination. I didn't expect chocolate going well with durian but it does. The only thing annoying is the grass jelly, because i don't think it fits together. And it's quite expensive, durian ovomaltine 30k but still i would go and buy it again XD The service is fast too, either ordering and delivering is fast. so I'm really satisfied.

On the place, I think it's just so so, half of the place is outdoor. But I think it's better to sit outside since the indoor was quite hot, albeit all the air conditioner was on full blast. The place was packed, the seat is small so not so comfy to sit on for a long time. The pricing is affordable, main course ranging from 20-40k, Long John 45-55k, drinks 5-40k, desserts 15-30k. I didn't check the martabak one so i can't say for sure. 

All in all, i really love the durian. I'll go back just for that XD

Opening: 4 - 10 pm.




For couple of days we've been using this place for our ads shooting projects. So naturally when i was surrounded by cake, it was my natural instinct to go and want to eat them XD especially the chocolate one XD

So at the end of the shoots, i finally lost to temptation and just order what i had wanted for days. The chocolate oreo tart (47.5k). It was what i have expected, chocolate. Though it looks so small, I actually can't finish it. I was surprised that it was so dense with dark chocolate, chocolate ganache, chocolate sponge complete with the tart crust at the bottom. I was hoping for it to be more moist than it was and as usual i'm not a fan of tart crust. It was not DA BOMB but it was enough to satisfy my cravings XD

Hmmm the other fruit tart looks extremely tempting XD
