Terkadang kita ingin memanjakan diri kita dengan sesuatu yang praktis dan cepat, seperti mie instant, nasi instant, minuman instant dan sebagainya. Segala pilihan yang instant belum tentu baik, tapi kita bisa mencari sesuatu yang instant tanpa merepotkan diri kita sendiri_dalam hal makanan_dengan pergi ke restauran. Banyak pilihan restauran di luar sana, namun kita akan memilih makanan yang ingin kita makan pada saat itu tentunya, dan pilihan saya jatuh pada makanan Indonesia.  Setelah melihat, menimbang dan menilik menu yang ada, akhirnya saya memutuskan untuk memesan paket ayam penyet, satu porsi saja. Paket ayam penyet ini sudah termasuk dua potong ayam, tahu, tempe, sambal dan nasi, tidak lupa dengan timun dan daun selada sebagai lalaban . Sayang tidak ada paket yang termasuk dengan sayur asem. Untuk satu porsi ayam penyet ini, saya harus mengeluarkan...
