Discover Omija, a Korean spot in Kota Casablanca's food court offering incredible deals. While it's a mixed bag, the highlights are a must-try! Grab their surprisingly smooth 10k Gula Aren Coffee and fluffy Bomboloni donuts—you can even score half a dozen for just 50k with a bank promo! Just a heads-up, the review suggests skipping the Tteokbokki for now. It's the perfect stop for a sweet, budget-friendly recharge while shopping.
Every time I shop 'til I drop at Kota Casablanca, I always want to find a place to just Nongkrong and recharge. And guess what! I discovered this little Korean spot, Omija, located in the food court on the LG floor. When I saw the menu, I was like, Anjay! In this day and age, in a downtown Jakarta mall, you can still find coffee for 10k? 🤯
Dessert Paradise vs. A Minefield of Disappointments
The ambiance is that of a typical fast-food style spot in a food court. It has an all-white color scheme and looks quite clean and bright, but there aren't many seats, and you basically have to fight for one during meal times[1].
I got straight to the point and first ordered their highly-praised Gula Aren Coffee, which is only 10k[2]! The texture was surprisingly smooth, and it was milky enough. Totally worth the price, Mantap! 👍
Next up was the main event, the Bomboloni (Korean-style donuts)[3]. They're a good size, and the dough is very soft and fluffy. I tried the Nutella and Ovomaltine flavors. The filling was decent, and the sweetness was just right—not that sickeningly sweet, artificial saccharin taste. I heard that if you use a BCA card on Mondays and Tuesdays, you can get half a dozen for just 50k[4]. Who can beat that value for money?
BUT! Don't get too excited just yet. The Tteokbokki (stir-fried rice cakes) I ordered on a whim was a bit of a letdown. The sauce was as thin as water, there were only a few lonely pieces of rice cake, and the fish cakes (Oden) had shrunk significantly[5]. It feels like the quality isn't as good as it used to be. For those of you girls who want to eat Korean snacks, you might want to wait and see.
To be honest, it was a bit disappointing…
Although the coffee and donuts were good, there are some details that really need to be called out. The service was... very average, and I saw some reviews mentioning that the staff's hygiene habits aren't great[6]. Although I didn't witness it myself this time, everyone should still be mindful.
Editor's Highlights! A Guide to Avoiding Pitfalls✍️
- Ordering Strategy: Go for the Bomboloni[7] and Gula Aren Coffee[8] without hesitation. Avoid the Tteokbokki and fish cakes[9] for now, unless you want to experience the 'surprise' of opening a blind box.
- Money-Saving Hacks: Definitely! Definitely! Keep an eye out for the bank card promotions[10]! For example, the BCA promo for half a dozen donuts for 50k is an absolute steal!
- Hidden Perks: There's a microwave in the store for you to heat up your own food[11], the texture is much better when it's fresh and hot! Some seats also have power outlets[12], a lifesaver for all you girls whose phones are about to die.
- Attention K-Pop Fans: This place really knows how to stir things up. They often do collaborations with brands, and they've even held a fan event for EXO-L before[13]. Fangirls should follow their IG, who knows, maybe your favorite idol will be featured one day?
