Kulo nuwun ('Excuse me' in Javanese Language), How are you guys doing?

In the last November, I joined an event by Bengawan Solo Coffee called 'ONE FINE DAY with Bengawan Solo Coffee' in Kota Kasablanka, supported by OpenRice Indonesia & Bank Danamon. It was a fun event! I will tell you the details below.


I'm sure most of you guys already know Bengawan Solo Coffee, me and my friends usually shortened it as 'Bengsol', which is easier to call. Bengawan Solo Coffee started their first store at ITC Kuningan in May 2003, it was only take-away service at first but they grew bigger and bigger until they have more than 30 branches in six provinces in Indonesia, which are Jakarta, East Java, West Java, Yogyakarta, North Sumatera and Banten. Then, what makes Bengawan Solo Coffee special compared to its competitors(I don't have to mention it right..)?


First, Bengawan Solo Coffee is experienced in producing coffee for more than 30 years. Second, most of its coffee Ingredients are from Indonesia, wow! Third, some of the stores are open 24 hours! And last but not least, it tastes awesome!

Well that's a brief information about Bengawan Solo Coffee, now let's talk about the event.


The theme of this event is 'ONE FINE DAY with Bengawan Solo Coffee', means that we'll always have a fine day every time you enjoy Bengawan Solo products :p But that's not a lie, because every time I enjoy Java Avocado, it makes me feel like I'm in Heaven lol. Back to the event, there are lots of fine games to do, such as Quiz, Latte Art Tutorials, Instagram Photo Competition, and 3D Latte Art tutorials & competition.




Mr. Babay from David Roy Indonesia gave us the useful tutorials about Latte Art & 3D Latte Art, he is a professional Barista with an excellent hand and taste of art! He makes it looks easy while we were struggling so hard to make a proper 3D Latte Art, but Thank God my team won the 3D Latte Art Competition (sadly I don't have the photo) lol.

Anyway, don't you curious about their Coffees and other drinks?


I said 'Other drinks' because they don't just serve Coffee, but also the other kind of drinks and foods as well! There are 4 variants of products they serves, Espresso Based Coffee, Non-Coffee, Ice Blended, and Finger foods, but in some stores you can find Main Course foods.



For the Espresso based Coffee, I put Vietnamese Milk Coffee on my top list and Java Avocado for the Ice Blended because it taste awesome for sure! You can actually feel the avocado taste in the first sip :9

For the Non-Coffee list, I like their Tea Tarik and Assorted Tea Line because they use Dilmah Tea. My favorite Finger foods from Bengawan Solo Coffee is their Sate Pisang, too bad that I haven't had the chance to try their main course, so far I know they serves Javanese Ramen, Java Steak, etc.


Other than the menu they serves, I also like their store. First thing is the comfy Sofa, and the second most important is Electrical outlet LOL, Sssstttt I've ever stayed the night at Bengawan Solo Cofee :D

FYI, cooperating with Bank Danamond, they held a program called "Danamon Coffee for Free". You can get minimum discount of 50%, 75% or even 100% (FREE) with just using Danamond Card. Wow!
