Pondok Kopi Umbul Sidomukti Semarang: Enjoying Magnificent View From A Coffeeshop

Semarang has lots of coffeshop in town, one of them which we had visited is Tekodeko Koffiehuis. But we wanted an outdoor coffeshop, one place that I could sit enjoying the view with mr.husband, while our Kiddos will be busy with their outdoor exploring activities.

After our swimming session at Umbul Sidomukti, as advised by Mba Deti, our spa therapist at Novotel Semarang, we continued our journey to Pondok Kopi Umbul Sidomukti. We knew that we were going to love the place as we were passing the very steep road up to the hill.

And finally we safely arrived at Pondok Kopi Umbul Sidomukti, Semarang.

Probably it is one of the highest Pondok Kopi in Semarang

Semarang With Kids: Swimming At Umbul Sidomukti

On our weekend getaway to Semarang, we didn't really plan anything as we didn't know where to go in Semarang with kids. Only two places that we really wanted to visit: Lawang Sewu Museum and The Ambarawa Railway Museum.

But we changed our plan when I had my spa at Novotel Semarang, my therapist Mba Deti advised me to go to Umbul Sidomukti when I told her that our Kiddos love swimming so much. "You should go to Umbul Sidomukti, the view is great and they have a great pool", she explained further. The next morning, we really headed to Umbul Sidomukti.

With the help of Waze and also information from our friend Mas Adit who came to the hotel early in the morning, we managed to find the entrance to Umbul Sidomukti. The road was difficult to get here, very narrow and steep. But to my surprise, there was no traffic jam at all, although it was a long weekend. Well, something like this will never happen in Lembang-Bandung.

We were up in the mountain:)

Jogjakarta's Culinary: Sate Klathak Pak Pong

I visited Jogjakarta a while ago with my friend Lala (@oilala) and Dina (@dinavirgianti). We attended the launching of our book "Ransel Mini Keliling Dunia" at Gramedia Jogjakarta. But other than that, we would like to have a culinary tour around the lovely city.

Arriving at lunch time, we were confused what we should choose for our lunch. I really wanted to try food that I haven't tried before in Jogjakarta. Lucky me Lala knows all those must visit restaurants in Jogjakarta. She then introduced me to Sate (Satay) Klathak Pak Pong.
