Those travelling by land transport can alight at One Residence, which is the apartment building the cafe is located at.

A signature Western-fusion dish to order is the Spaghetti Aglio Olio Wagyu Beef Rendang (Rp 80,000++/~S$7.50++), which pairs traditional rendang with garlicky aglio olio.

On top of al dente pasta, you also get tender strips of beef, which were cooked to a gorgeous medium rare on our visit.

If you want to fill up on something quick and fuss-free, try the Chicken Balsamic Vinegar Wrap (Rp 65,000++/S$6.10++). This wrap features juicy and well-seasoned chicken thigh, paired with a tangy salad, wrapped in tortilla, and toasted till golden.

Another popular hand-held item on the menu is the Mushroom Truffle Burger (Rp 65,000++/~S$6.10++). The juicy burger comes with a mushroom patty, melted cheddar, fresh veggies, and a generous dose of truffle oil that hits you as soon as you pick up the burg.
