A quick review of The Pancake Parlour, Oakwood, Mega Kuningan, South Jakarta

Price: Ok, about the same with Burger King. Food ranging from IDR 20k to IDR 80k. Common lunch meal plus drink should cost around IDR 45k

Varieties: Dedicated to pancake & almost all about pancake, despite so, they offer menu such as fried noodles, Tom Yam & sandwich. Drinks are quite standard.

Specialties: “Pancakes” at different taste/theme at sweet, ice cream, cheesy & beefy

Taste: Good. The pancake bread is soft & mild roasted. The dressing are elegant. The portion could be a little more generous though.

Environment: It could use more air conditioning at the outer room of the restaurant. Quite noisy and music provided are standard CD player

Service quality: The waiters are polite, responsive, and knowledgeable of the restaurant varieties

In summary, I would recommend The Pancake Parlour for people who are looking for thematic dining experience and like to try new restaurant. However, it’s not a great place to dine, with the noise, and the portion is quite limited – not filling. Frequent dining is not recommended unless you are crazy about pancakes.

Other locations are Teraskota in BSD, Supermal Karawaci in Tanggerang & Paris van Java in Bandung

This is a medium size deluxe cheese pizza with mozzarella stuffed crust topping – take away packaging.

I wonder when Pizza Hut in Indonesia will apply the online delivery order.

For customer it will provide the convenience of;

1. Auto form. Less hassle writing (e.g. address etc)
2. Payment method. No need the hassle of cash (washing your hand afterwards). Credit card or Paypal are just fine
3. Viewing visibility. With a notebook or an iPhone, user can have a better view of the Pizza Hut menu and user comment & reviews

While for the company itself, it will provide;

1. Automation. Everything is automated and carried out by the application which means less labor cost and voice communication cost
2. Competitive advantage. By offering eDelivery service, Pizza Hut will have the competitive advantage as early adopter; despite only a niche market will use eDelivery service in Indonesia. However, when eDelivery service becomes widely recognized and accepted, Pizza Hut will gain grounds ahead the competitors and may have become an icon which people always think about before purchasing food & beverage online.
