Breathed slowly and enjoyed coffee.

Hello, Batam City Stories. This is a my first blog in Batam City. Oh, that's a beautiful city in Indonesia, and closest to the country. Singapore. For the information, in some tourist spots in Batam City we will be able to see the iconic tower of Singapore.

one of view from Tanjung Pinggir Beach, we can see vaguely the iconic building of the country of Singapore. Beautiful, right?

I am very happy to be able to take my first vacation with my husband. We did our first flight for the first time after marriage. You could say this is a pleasant fun trip for us after I had a miscarriage last month.

After we lost our prospective child in my womb, we decided to travel to Batam City. Very feasible to do.




Go to the Wangi Melati Coffee House

Life always goes on with all the chaos that occurs. There must be calm that we create. Sitting well, breathing with mindfulness. One of his best friends is having a delicious cup of coffee. Do you agree with that?

That day, my husband and I had just finished checking out of Batam View Beach Resort. The distance of the resort is far from the city center. Also, we have not choose the next place to go. Because my husband and I are very spontaneous people in determining our next destination to go for. UPPPS.

We decided to stop at a restaurant that was still in one management with Batam View Beach Resort. That place is named Wangi Melati Coffee House. We also did breakfast in this place before.

The Wangi Melati Coffee House is a dining place that seems old. That's true because this building has long been standing together with the resort itself. Traditional appearance can be seen in this place. It's just that from the old atmosphere we can get a classic impression that feels peaceful.

Ornaments with traditional objects are used for the decoration of this place. Not much can look amazing, but fortunately, The Wangi Melati Coffee House feels comfortable. There is nothing more important than comfort. Right, right?

The chairs used to look luxurious in his day. It looks classic right now. Quite strong and comfortable to support the back of the travelers.

I sat comfortably while waiting for my order to come. My husband took my portrait. My heart feels flowering like fresh flowers on my table.

When the person you love sees you and takes a portrait of you, it will be a thrilling moment. My cheeks feel warmly splashed.




Hot Cappuccino

My first order came to my desk. I ordered a hot cappuccino. My first view of a coffee menu is pretty good. Hot cappuccino by The Wangi Melati Coffee House is served beautifully. We can see several layers in one medium-sized glass.

So, how about the taste? Hot cappuccino by The Wangi Melati Coffee House feels fine on my tongue. There's nothing I need to comment on here.

The most important thing is I like the taste. There's nothing wrong and I just enjoyed the classic atmosphere here.

While drinking coffee, my husband and I talked about our next goal. It turns out that Hot Cappuccino by The Wangi Melati Coffee House can make my mind open again. Panic can go and I can think calmly. That's easy, I just need coffee. It Works!




Spring Rolls

Do not judge the book's contents only from the cover, although the first assessment often affects our assessment. Spring Rolls which is my second order after coffee, came in a rather charred condition. I am not underestimated and keep smiling accepting the spring rolls.

Spring rolls are served simply with vegetable salads that look fresh as garnishes. Vegetable salads are served using a cabbage. Do not forget also to be served the spicy sauce with a small sauce container on those Spring Rolls plates.

I was shocked but happy. The spring rolls that I am bitten are feeling CRIPSY on the outside. The texture of the vegetables in it also feels very fresh and crunchy. This is the first time I feel the filling of Spring Rolls like this. It feels like a fresh salad filled with the Spring Rolls. In fact, I could not guess the exact way they used so the vegetables were very good.

In appearance, Spring Rolls by The Wangi Melati Coffee House is not too amazing. But then, I was shocked by the taste of delicious and different spring rolls from Spring Rolls that I had eaten before.

A different favorable experience that I feel in Batam City I am grateful that God. Had told me to stop in this place and order their menus that are worthy of me to remember for the rest of my life.

My body feels as happy as my tongue that feels good treats from The Wangi Melati Coffee House. It feels like I want to dance in the air. Oh, that was a beautiful moment.

For that moment, I have to pay around $7 including tax. The price of food and beverage from hotel, includes standard. Plus that my tongue feels like a new thing, it is worthy of money to be spended.




Thank you for reading my blog and reblog if you want my blog this time worthy of reading by others.

I am very sorry for the loss you refer to, and wish you all healing and wholeness in your womb-vitality: may your dreams be fulfilled with grace and ease, all in the right timing. Much love to you, and thank you for sharing this lovely moment with your partner having such a yummy snack - I am sooo sensitive to coffee but ADORE having a special coffee moment with a nice sideplate.

Oh, thank you for beautiful words ❤️

I'm sorry for your loss, I hope that you heal from it. I've never imagined the pairing of coffee and spring rolls but they both looked so delicious. I'm glad you get to enjoy the Batam city, I could see the Marina Bay Sands from one of your photos. :)

I really love the view of Singapore, the portraits of the city behind the sea fascinate me. I don't get to see that very often. Travel and enjoy your vacation, ma'am. I hope you have even more fun from now on.

We all deserve that kind of calmness and happiness we can get from food, coffee, the view, and the people we're with 🥰
That view from Tanjung Pinggir Beach was fantastic! I'm including this to one of the places I'd love to visit in the future.

First of all I love your dress 🤩 I love pastel colours, second the cappuccino it's sooo big , I can drink it all but not with spring rolls, not because of their look but simply because I don't like spring rolls so much, I'm happy you enjoyed your trip to Batan city 🤩

This place is very impressive.
For sure, it was very pleasant to drink coffee in such a cool and cozy atmosphere.
Thank you for the wonderful photos, dear :-)

Assalamualaikum kakak @anggreklestari

terlihat sangat lezat kopinya kakak, semoga kakak sehat selalu 🥰

Such lovely photos of you. I hadn’t realized that Singapore was so close to that part of Indonesia.
In life we have storms, they aren’t easy but they make us stronger. Great to see you smile. As you heal, may you be flooded with more joy and happiness. Great that you have the support and great photography skills of your husband. 😃💕

Hello, sis. I've been hibernate for several months and missed your posts. So sorry to hear about the miscarriage hug ... Turut berduka cita, ya... Take your time to heal your body and your mind. No need to rush. Glad you had a fun trip with your husband. I wish the best for both of you. Dari Batam lanjut ke Singapur, nih?

Do not judge the book's contents only from the cover, although the first assessment often affects our assessment.

This tends to happen in many aspects of life and prevents us from enjoying the valuable things behind the first appreciation.

The cappuccino's layers are so defined that they make you fall in love and make you want to drink it.

I'm glad you took a few days to travel to heal your heart. You have a good husband who will accompany you in this process. God loves you!💕

I’m blessed with everthing. I always try first before making conclusion about everything 😊

me and my husband have a good time ❤️

Thanks for stopping by 🌸
