They say the best kinds of foods are free ones, but I believe it is more than just that. Well, I have great news for you hungry people out there who crave good food, grand place, and obviously great price. We must admit that we city folks eat not just to fill our tummy and satisfy our taste buds but also to live up our lives as the Upper East Siders who eats breakfast at Tiffany’s we watch on TV. Everyone is on a quest looking for the hippest place to eat, the prettiest looking food or drinks that deserve a spot in our Instagram feeds. Either way, whether you are the type of person who has genuine love for tasty food, orders cappuccino for content, looking for a spacious restaurant for an event, or even Zomato is your knight in shining armor.
Zomato won our hearts as it has made our day-to-day food “quest” so practical by providing information and review of restaurants, including images of menus and ambiance within a few clicks away on your smartphone. Not settling until we fall head over heels for them, they kept innovating and recently launched their exclusive “Zomato Gold” where members will be indulged with privileges such as 1+1 on food or 2+2 on drinks at partner restaurants only Rp250.00,00 for a year long.
In order to diminish your curiosity and doubts, today I will be sharing my recent experience with Zomato Gold. Approximately last week, when I went on a movie date at Setiabudi One and discovered a not-so-new restaurant which now, I would consider as my long lost love. On my way to Setiabudi, I was already doing my ritual whenever I go out to hang out or eat which is picking out restaurants with good vibes and luscious food to complement and stumbled upon Tapas Club, a gorges wine cellar-themed interior with elegant design and a shady outdoor terrace near the building’s water fountain. Casually romantic, especially with the breezy flamenco music that will boost the mood.
I have been dying to eat Spanish as long as I can remember, which lead me to order Lubina A La Bilbaina, Seabass with garlic and chili sauce and mashed potatoes as my choice of sides for Rp150.000,00. As for my boyfriend, he went to try Filete De Ternera, or we simply may know as beef steak also with mashed potatoes for FREE. The mashed potatoes we had was different than the ordinary, I'd classify it as a puree rather than a side dish. Nevertheless, it was soft and creamy without overpowering the main dishes. As for drinks, I had a Schweppes Tonic and my boyfriend had San Benedetto (Sparkling). In total, we paid Rp210.00,00 when without Zomato Gold, we were supposed to pay for Rp360.000,00.

Overall, we were overjoyed by our experience with Zomato Gold at Tapas Club. Everything was great, even the services. They did not give us any reason to complain about anything. On the contrary, they successfully made our date felt like a trip to a piece of Spain in Jakarta.
