WEEKEND GATEWAY with HILTON BANDUNG!

mr & mrs bfoodie

Last month we were invited to have 2D1N media trip staycation by Hilton Hotel Bandung. When first received that invitation, we were so HAPPY (hello! You must be very happy if received that kind of invitation!).

Anyway we almostttt reject it because tons of deadline we had on the office! Had i mention that we have a garment, which almost every garment going crazily busy and full off order during ramadhan month! But Thanks God everything going as plan, so we can have that small gateway to enjoy 2 days off from office.

There you go....

DAY 1
We arrived at Hilton Bandung around 11am, and met our several bandung foodieS there. 
You will  find this arabian photo corner at the hotel lobby during ramadhan month.

We headed to Purnawarman restaurant to have our welcome drink, which named DREAM GREEN.
DREAM GREEN
It was a healthy juice consisting of some veggies mixed with pinapple and lemon juice. Healthy yet so fresh!

Right after having that fresh welcome drink, we went upstairs to 6th floor to

FRESCO RESTAURANT

 What could be better than sitting by the pool with calm and beautiful scenery while enjoy your tasty and nice dishes. Yup Fresco restaurant has all of it, located on the 6th floor, the restaurant has an open air area which make us can clearly feel the fresh Bandung breeze all the time during our lunch there.

As an opening dishes we had INDONESIAN PIZZA 135K consisting of indonesian specialties. we tried their BEEF RENDANG PIZZA and CHICKEN BETUTU PIZZA, it taste so unique (in a good way) even some of my friend told that the pizza will going well eaten with rice haha..


After having our pizza appetizer, we were given a couple of choice for main course. Ok lets jump to the main course we picked.

N.Y STRIPLOIN 255++
Lets begin with mrs.bfoodie choices, n.y striploin. It was a 200g beef steak which come from the back of the beef from about the middle of the back until close to the leg, it is the second most tender part of the beef and known for its tenderness. The striploin was HUGE and as ecxpected so tender and moist and well seasoned!

While mr.bfoodie choose homemade pappardelle for his lunch because it is one of fresco signature dish. It was roasted chicken duxelle mushroon with parmesan shaved, fresh bassil, and mushroom ragout with emultion. Chicken meat was tender, the pappardelle itself is like wide fettucine and has perfect creaminess.

Super cozy lounge, with excellent ambience
THE ROOM

Well, because the two of us has been married, we were given a king executive room which is super duper spacious and having a great view facing the swimming pool! Actually its kind of a throwback to our first night as married couple (we also sleep here after the wedding ceremony with the same room type, the same view) excited much?! YAP!! ;).


thanks to rany from dunia kuliner bandung for capture our bedroom photo session haha..
In my humble opinion, because the room is really spacious i think it perfect for a small family, it could hold up to 4 person at once (2 adult + 2 kids) while you still have so many spaces left!



you can enjoy watch the television while having your bubblebath time!
After having a good rest, we went to purnawarman restaurant to have our buffet dinner.

NASI BAKAR PURNAWARMAN 83++
It smell so good! Love the vibrant color and pretty presentation of this dish. This nasi bakar consist of 'nasi tutug oncon', roasted minced beef (gepuk), fried tofu and veggies. The best part is their sambal!


PINDANG IGA 165++
Their Pindang iga is to die for! Seriously is was perfection, rich and warm broth served with rice, emping crackers, green chili sauce, pickles and grilled beef oxtail. Oxtail was very tender!

SURABI KINCA
Last but not least, our lunch break is closed by surabi kinca. Anyway surabi is Indonesian pancake made with coconut milk as one of the ingredient. What i love from surabi kinca is the pandan flavoring and served with grated coconut palm sugar topping, coconut milk sauce. yumm..!


Overall, its a wonderful staycation we had at Hilton Bandung. There is no reason to skip this 5 stars hotel if your are planning to have a sweet escape in bandung. Almost all of their service is excellent, great hospitality, luxury, good food and of course great location.
