Casadina Kitchen & Bakery: Big Plate for Big Tummy!



Welcome to our first post yeay! We’re really excited to start our first restaurant’s review of that “IT” places to hang out, Casadina Kitchen & Bakery, Kuningan! It located exactly inside Apartment Rasuna Tower 17 opposite Epicentrum Mall. If you came from Kuningan, you can go to that alley beside Pasar Festival which lead you to Epicentrum Mall then make a U-turn in front of it and tadaaa you can perfectly see Casadina’s sign on your left. Because it’s really near to the U-turn, dont’ miss out the entrance! (because we nearly did hehe). The entrance to Casadina was a bit confusing for us at first because it’s near the alley between Casadina and the nearest bulding apartment, so please don’t be confuse like we did lol.


The waiter kindly welcome us and we sat in front of the counter just beside the window.  We asked the waiter about their main courses specialty and he recommend us to order which were Chicken Parmagiana (65k) and Honey Mustard Grilled Chicken Breast (65k). For the drink we ordered Green Tea Almond Milk (35k) from their Healthy Crushes and Slushes (its their specialty for beverages) and Candy Mint Chocolate (35k). After ordering, we scanned through the menu again and decided to add Chilli Salted Dusted Calamari (55k) for Appetizer. We suggest you to ask the waiter about their specialty, you may find it hard to choose what to order because all the dishes’ name (yes the name) looks really good!


The square-pizza-pan-like menu





Not after a long time, the beverages came first. The Green Tea Almond Milk served in an small elegant glass. The green tea and milk tastes pretty strong which surely match green tea milk lovers. At first you can’t really tell where’s the almond but after sometimes it finally came out in a crushes form. Maybe because it came in a tiny crushes so sometimes it can stuck on your throat, please be careful not to drink it too fast tho. The Candy Mint Chocolate served in a regular blended glass which definitely bigger then the first one. Chocolate dominates the whole drink which really good for a sweet tooth and you can taste a hint of mint that gives off refreshing taste. Not sure where the candy title are from..... maybe the chocolate is actually a candy? Because you can’t really taste the candy sweet taste.






Finally our appetizer Chilli Salted Dusted Calamari are served, lot of yeay! We’re quite shock seeing the big plate, not even expecting it will be that big. The plate was big indeed but the food was even better because the portion was also pretty big!. The calamari was fried and dusted with asian herbs and chilli padi. The calamari was fried really nicely, not oily but not too much flour either. The asian herbs turned out tastes like fried onion and the chilli padi weren’t spicy so don’t be afraid of the title! Overall it tastes a bit salty which we certained it came from the asian herbs and the chilli padi.






Chilli powder, tomato sauce, chilli sauce

Here it comes our Main Courses for today, Chicken Parmagiana and Honey Mustard Grilled Chicken Breast! The Chicken Parmagiana came with what seems like spaghetti bolognese at the bottom, boneless chicken topped with mozarella, and fried onion at top of it. The boneless chicken  was really crispy and fried really well, you can also taste a rich taste of cheese from the mozarella, really tastes like heaven. The spaghetti bolognese tastes like any other bolognese and it was okay for us, we’re not a big fan of pasta actually sorry!.





The Honey Mustard Grilled Chicken Breast came with fried potato, a little vegetables like tomato cherries and zucchini, and mushroom sauce. The grilled chicken breast tastes really really great and came as our favourite! The chicken was grilled really well even if you didn’t really like grilled foods because the sweet taste of honey mustard covered the grilled smell. The fried potato has a bit salty tastes at the outside and a pretty soft potato on the inside. We prefer to dig in the chicken in to the mushroom sauce rather than pour it to the chicken because we afraid we would ruined the chicken but please choose to your preferences!





Note!!! All the dishes we ordered came in a pretty big plates, we assumed so do the other dishes hehe. Because we didn’t expect it will came in big plates, we couldn’t try their cakes because we were soooo full and we need to catch a movie ㅠㅠ.


Casadina is indeed a great place to hang out with your friends or just enjoying your me time because the place wasn’t that big and pretty secluded so it gives you some kind of privacy. You will get a cozy homey feeling that comes from their wooden style and the greenhouse theme was an unique idea. You will find the place was a instagram-worthy haha, especially there’s a pool in front of Casadina!! Eventhough the pool wasn’t that clean.... well we certain that it’s not for swimming lol. We were having a lot of fun taking photos outside!!

Bel, please don’t ignore me



Our OOTD photos??? LOL


We will make sure to come back again in near future to taste their cakes and bakery!
