Prologue

The atmosphere of the place to eat is the most important thing besides the taste of the place. Even with the times that demanded to appear expressive on social media, eating places now have additional functions as a good place to take pictures.

No matter where eating places are large or small, if the place to eat can attract attention directly or digitally with interesting marketing, then we can be sure that the place to eat will be liked by visitors. And, the place is able to have a fixed customer.

Taagar is one of the places to eat in the Kemang area, South Jakarta. Taagar which is a rebranding of "Taakis" can be an option for young people in the area of South Jakarta who like to find places to eat that have unique and attractive decorations for hangouts and photos.

Taagar looks small and is crushed by another building. Although small, and only reopened after rebranding from the old place, Taagar was able to attract a lot of visitors' attention. That was proven when I came to this place, the place was crowded with young people or families. Some places also have been ordered by several people.

Taagar's Attraction

Taagar has a colorful design. Bright colors are displayed in Taagar's design to liven up the cheerful impression. Bright colors are also able to make space look larger than the original.

The walls feature original brick texture, with pastel colored paint. Authentic impressions are also displayed in the design of this place, because the food served is also an authentic Asian food.

Taagar is unique. This small dining place has many impressions. Not only impressions are cheerful and authentic, some angles also display elements of nationalism.

This element of nationalism is well suited to the design of Taagar's room. Most of the visitors who are young people are able to add a sense of nationalism in themselves when they look at the design of Indonesia Map, on this wall.

Look at the map of my country, with the dominant colors white and red as a symbol of the color of Indonesian nationalism found on the flag.

There is also the word Taakis the name of this place before before rebranding it into Taagar.

Green impressions also try to be displayed by Taagar so that this place will be more fresh when filled with visitors. Therefore there is a touch of ornamental plants on the table, and a touch of green leaves in the room divider between the main room and the restroom area.

Because I came to this place in a crowded place, and also at night, I could not capture the bright image of the design of this place. But there's no need to worry because I took several image sources from Taagar's Instagram account.

My Choices

I arrived at Taagar in a state of hunger. So I decided to choose an appetizer in the form of Bread Tuna Roll. For main courses, I ordered Beef Slice with Japanese Style sauce. And, to drink it I chose Thai Tea Latte.

Bread Tuna Roll

In fact, I am very happy with this menu. Because so far I have never liked raw tuna served in the style of sushi. I am very helped with this menu.

This Tuna is presented in the right way for me. Tuna is wrapped in delicious fried flour. Coupled with my favorite fresh vegetables. Perfect at a low price!

Beef Slice

Beef Slice with Japanese Style sauce is served with rice, using a bowl, Japanese style. Fresh onions and eggs add to the hearty sensation of my meal.

The taste of the beef slice dish is indeed very comfortable, easily received by the tongue. I will come back here for sure.

Thai Tea Latte

This drink is very popular in Indonesia. Tea is indeed very close to Indonesian culture. That's why this delicious taste of Thai Tea is easily accepted and a popular drink in Indonesia.

There is no reason for me not to like the taste of authentic tea. Look at this beautiful color, guaranteed to make this day fresh and bright.

In this Yummy Traveler edition in Taagar, it doesn't take many words to close my review. I just want to say that Taagar is a small place, but it is great happiness and warm place.
