Funny thing, is that Amber (what a cute name isn't it?) is located exactly a cross to Cacaote, and their building kinda look the same, but no worries they serve a different concept here, and I try not to compare both of them (altough is hard). So, Amber comes to present many of cakes, pastries, chocolates, all that guilty pleasure that to die for you to try it. Oh, that sweet tooth, I love the excitement of my taste bud dancing by the joy of desserts, eeemmm sounds tempting right? If you cakes and pastries lovers or simply you just looovee chocolates then you should come to the first floor of this cafe right away.
Yes dear, it's just the first floor that I was talking about. There are still second and the third floor (wich one of the thing that makes it different than cacaote). Okay, up the second floor in Amber café, you will feel the comfortable ambience, there are some chairs with sofa, and also books that neatly arranged and organized in the other side of the room to give the impression as if you were in the quiet library, for me it's a unique ambiance to enjoy the dish. Even I said before they show a library looks, it's not the same with the looks in bibliotheque.
So in this second floor they deliver wine and dine concept. As for the appetizer, I ordered the Nicoise Salad, the salad served with a fresh tuna and healthy fresh vegetables. if you are tuna lovers, the menu is suitable for you to try. The tuna cooked perfectly, it looks a bit red in the inside with a nice and crispy skin in the outside, juicy of course, oh and they served it with fresh orange sauce wich made the dish so vibrant. I think the strength of this menu is on the tuna and that fresh orange sauce that makes it an interesting dish to try.
That salad was just an opening for me baby, it was lunchtime back then, so I ordered the main menu. It's chicken roast, 2 pieces of chicken served with baby corn, pineapple and curry. I think, the chicken roasted perfectly with bold marination, and the chruncy, sweet baby corn made it good. This menu was served with French fries, the french fries came with quite generous portion, it's crispy and tasty. Well you don’t need to worry not feeling full after this because the balance of carbohydrate, protein and fiber in this dish were just perfect.
As you knew Jakarta's atmosphere was cold because of the rainy weather, so I was wondering, what fits best rather than a nice cup of hot choco. So perfect, they served hot chocolate fountain from Amber's chocolate signatures. Oh my god!! it spoils my taste bud in the best way that I could imagine, the best hot chocolate I ever tasted in Indonesia. The chocolate flavor was silky, rich and smooth, the consistency was thin so it won't make your bellyful, it simply just made you want more and more. This hot chocolate was suitable to give a sense of relaxation and warm to your body. I think you will not be bored to enjoy a cup of hot chocolate accompanied by the complementary bread.

Oh last but not least the third floor. They have a roof top bar. It's open from 5 pm till 1 am, too bad because I came at 1 pm at that time so it's still close. This bar is surrounded by glasses so you could see the glimps of the night in SCBD. They serve many mocktails, cocktails, drinks and shots, smokes are allowed of course. Comfy sofa are there for you to sit on, relax while having a chit chat with your friends. That roof top was perfect to chillin and enjoy your evening or even as a warm up before you hit the floor at the club.
Well readers, that's all my review about Amber cakes and pastries. Remember, when you come to Jln. Senopati try to stop at this place, either is only for enjoy the amazing hot choco and pastries with your lovers or friends in the first floor, or to have a business meeting with a clients in second floor, or to have fun and pleasure night in the third floor. What ever it is, Amber is definetly a one stop perfect cullinary adventure in Jakarta.
