Rumah Coklat was a cafe the placed at Jalan Cik di Tiro 56, Yogyakarta. Thic cafe often has teenagers as the guest. But not only teenagers come to this place, some adults are often come here too since this cafe has a really comfortable feeling with make us relax with all the homemade menus that will calm down our mind. 
There are various menu offered here, if we want something warm we can choose the menu from 'hot' category, and if we want something cool we can choose from 'cool' category. This cafe not only provide drinks and beverages, we can found any western food here. Such as pancake, sausage, pasta, lasagna, soup cream, etc, with some varieties that make it different. 
Well, as the person who already came here, I should recommended you some menus. For drink, I really like Belgian chocolate, it gives you a little bitter feeling, but also have a sweet feeling in it, when it gets down on your throat it really warm you up, you should feel this sensation by yourself! With chocolate spoon that make it more perfect! For meal, I recommended pancake with oreo topping on it and a scoop of vanilla ice cream with a cherry decorated it. Or blueberry cheese pancake, with the cheese taste that will melt all over your mouth! Actually there are still many good and tasty menus in this cafe, but it's not exciting if I tell all of that to you, you should taste that by yourself!
