The government has again taken steps for the total large-scale social restriction in order to limit the increased number of positive Covid-19.

Bahasa l English It doesn't feel like it's been almost 4 months I stopped write the articles since at this time I never visited any restaurant and we know it is also not a good time to invite people to go and hang out in cafes or restaurants. Much sad news where the impact of Covid-19 is very affected on businesses including food & beverages.

I also can not visit any restaurant, cafe or other places, since it is not comfortable and safe, it is better just to stay home. So here these times, I will review the restaurants that I visited before but had not been written in my blog journal. This time Lobo Italian Bistro, not a new restaurant. But the concept offered is quite different than the previous year. Previously, this restaurant offered a variety of international dishes. Now they are more specialized in the typical Italian menu. Located in the Ritz-Carlton Mega Kuningan hotel, it is undeniable that this dining has an elegant interior and a luxurious feel to the area. It's just that in my opinion, some sides look old-style, classic touches and kind of '90's especially the colors of the carpet, but the marble pa...

In the outdoor section, there are also some seats, but the air is quite hot during the day.
