So
more than a week ago, me and a few friends went to a restaurant called,
“Burgreens”. The restaurant serves food and drinks that are made out of organic
and raw ingredients. So their
products are healthy, but they’re still very delicious nonetheless. This lovely
restaurant sells burgers, pasta, salad, juices, and other tasty and healthy
food. Burgreens is located at Jl. Flamboyan no. 19, Rempoa, Tangerang Selatan.
The
place itself wasn’t really that big. Burgreens has two sections, the indoor and
outdoor section. In the indoor section of the restaurant, there was the
kitchen, cashier, and also a few dining tables. The decorations are pretty
simple, but they still give a very homey feeling. There’s a few a lights and
also some natural light from the sun to lit up the place. Behind the cashier, there was a quote written in big letters on the wall which said, "The best way to be rebellious is by growing your own food". The wall really looked cool. The outdoor section
is also simple, like the indoor section. The section itself wasn’t that narrow
unlike the indoor section; it was rather open spaced. There were dozens of
plants surrounding the section, giving it a natural and green feeling. The
breeze also made it more pleasant. I think the restaurant was
designed that way so that the customers can talk to each other, and just have a great time with others. Besides that, I also think that they wanted the restaurant to have that natural and comfy feeling. I would actually spend some time there because it's very homey. So all in all, the really ambience's great.
When I was there, the tables were very clean. The tables that were made from wood, were decorated with a vase and flowers, also a brochure. A glass filled the table set and some tissues were also placed on the table. I think the tables really looked nice with the simple decorations.
The
staff were very friendly. They'll offer you the menu
politely, and happily write down your orders. They would gladly answer your questions about the food and drinks, and can
give you some recommendations too if you’re confused or not sure on what to
order. They also really know and understand the details about the dishes, and very informative too. The owners, Max and Helga, will also stop by sometime. They'll talk about food enthusiastically. So, never hesitate
to ask them.

| Aglio olio |
While
there, I sat down and tried some of the dishes. Burgreens serves various types of dishes, which are without a doubt very great. The first one I tried was the aglio
olio. The spaghetti is made from whole wheat, topped off with some olive oil,
natural spices, and some fresh mushrooms. The aglio olio tasted really good. The
pasta was cooked perfectly and the ingredients were balanced pretty well. The
aglio olio was also a bit spicy, which made it great. Next, I tried the some of the sweet potato chips. The chips were also topped with
some natural spices. Not too thin or thick. They were crunchy. The chips didn’t
taste too salty either. They’re definitely a perfect snack to enjoy.

(a half drinked) Groovy berry |
For
the drinks, I had the iced strawberry tea. The tea had some slices of
strawberries that still tasted fresh. The tea was very chill. It was also quite
refreshing. You can add some honey too if you like your tea sweet. Then lastly,
I tried the groovy berry. Groovy berry is a cold tangy mixed juice. It’s a mix
of fresh strawberries, bananas, and oat mylk. And wow, it tasted so good. It
wasn’t too sour or sweet. And also quite vivid. You should really try it.
The dishes in Burgreens are simple, but of
course their tastes are simply divine. They’re worth craving for. The unfortunate thing is that they cost a little more. You might spend over Rp. 100.000, even if you're dining alone. Even though they're a bit pricey, they are still definitely worth it. And have I mentioned that the dishes more healthy than other restaurants? The restaurant’s
atmosphere made me feel at home. It's very comfy. So the feeling's just right. The staff there are also very friendly and polite. They won't hesitate to help you with ordering. So yes, I really recommend you to come to this restaurant. It’s perfect for gatherings, or for just
hanging out and have a healthy meal.
