Canteen 369
a Different Kind of 369
Ada
yang berbeda ketika saya melintasi food area di Surabaya Plasa (Delta
Plaza), dahulu spot di dekat toilet mewah lantai dasar ini ditempati
oleh resto 369 yang terkenal dengan sup tim ayam dan beragam mie.
Alih-alih bertemu nuansa Chinese yang kental, kali ini bertemu dengan
suasana bistro modern, dan namanya pun menjadi Canteen 369
If
you've been going to Surabaya Plasa (formerly Delta Plaza) for a long
time, you'd notice something different near their luxury bathroom, in
the ground floor where their food area are located.
In this place, a Chinese restaurant, 369 used to be present, now it's another iteration of the same brand, but with plenty of twists.

Hidangan
369 biasanya memang ada yang mengandung babi, termasuk sup tim ayamnya
yang tersohor itu, seingat saya satu-satunya gerai 369 yang tidak
menggunakan bahan olahan babi adalah yang di Delta / Surabaya Plaza ini.
Selain
untuk memodernkan gerai perubahan ini mungkin sekaligus menghapus
keraguan calon pelanggan tentang halal/ tidaknya ragam menu di 369.
The
dishes in the previous 369 were usually made using pork, which is a
problem for those on halal diet. Despite being the only 369 branch that
didn't sell pork, I guess some people would still be cautious about
going to the place.
So
today I've found out that they modernize the restaurant in to some sort
of bistro, and at the same time curbing the Chinese ambiance, which
probably would also emphasize on their pork free menus.

Salah
satu menu fusion yang awalnya sempat terlihat aneh, kita sempat mikir
ini Martabak ala tiongkok yang biasanya menjadi menu andalan di 369,
ternyata rasanya jauh berbeda. Rasa asin dan gurih khas masakan Chinese
berubah menjadi rasa pizza italia, tapi dengan bahan roti yang lebih
renyah dibanding pizza konvensional.
One
of the favorite dish was the Canteen Pizza. At first we thought it
gonna taste like their Chinese counterpart, which are Shanghai style
Murtabak (wikipedia link)
turns out we were wrong. I usually tend to have bad luck with fusion
dish, which taste just strange, this one though is a combo breaker. It
tastes nice, tangy, sweet, bright, with a crispy dough, texture and
tastes are all there.

Minuman
kopinya cukup beragam dan menarik, yang sempat kita coba adalah Kopi
Lanang, dan minuman satu ini cukup memuaskan. Begitu mencobanya saya
langsung teringat dengan Le Ciel Blue yang
menyajikan kopi hitam, diseduh dengan ibrik. Saya masih lebih suka
dengan versi LCB, yang memang rasanya lebih mantab, kemungkinan karena
diseduh dengan cara yang lebih kompleks
Their
coffee based beverage are quite plenty, and the one that I tried were
Kopi Lanang (peaberry) and it's really satisfying. Once I tried it, I
instantly recalled another place that serves good black coffee, Le Ciel Blue. The LCB coffee is more to my liking though, and it seems much more complicated to brew, using Ibrik, a Turkish coffee maker.
