Sumire Japanese Restaurant - Grand Hyatt Jakarta


If I may ask you, what's your favorite Japanese Food, probably sushi and ramen are the most common, how about Kushiyaki? Skewered and grilled meat and vegetables, the most famous Kushiyaki is Yakitori (grilled skewered chicken). Last week, I went to Sumire Japanese Restaurant at Grand Hyatt Jakarta, dominated with Japanese, very busy during lunch time (remember it's inside a 5 stars hotel), convinced me that this place is certainly special.

This month, they have promotion for Kushiyaki set, starting with only IDR 265k++ salad, rice, and drink are included. First, it's affordable, secondly, it was sooo good. To describe my beef kushiyaki, it came on pot with charcoal on the bottom, they use certain Japanese charcoal that doesn't create too much smoke. Five skewers in total, asparagus, shiitake mushrooms, beef cubes,beef roll, and beef tongue. My uber favorite is the beef cubes, super tender and juicy.





Those skewers came along with a bowl of steamed white rice, salad, and condiments. We, Indonesians, we get used to with sambal while in Japanese restaurant the most common condiment for a spicy kick is togarashi. What is very special from Sumire? They have special condiment called sambal Lukman, found by Chef Lukman himself, no it's not fusion, but the sambal is a certain thing that made this place unique. As a fan of spicy food, I always get excited when it comes to sambal, I was a bit skeptic at first but surprisingly it was quite addicting and became a great pairing for the Japanese dishes.

What's even better, the dessert is included. Glutinous rice balls in slightly sweet coconut milk topped with sweetened red bean. Delightful comforting dessert, but ice cream is a must, so.. a scoop of matcha ice cream was just right to complete my lunch. Have you ever tried to dine at Sumire? Let me know, what do you think? And ohh please ask for their special sambal (because it's not on the menu).

Lunch 12 pm to 03.00 pm
Dinner 6 pm to 10 pm

Resep: Salmon Mentai Rice | Beef Shirataki Mentai

Image
It's delicious but really I could not finish one portion, yes thank's to the amount of mayo. So, let's just share.  Mentai Rice , it's actually very easy to make as long as you have kitchen blow torch or use the oven to broil the mentaiko sauce. The sauce itself is made from mayonaise, preferably Japanese mayo like Kewpie and mentaiko (pollock roe / cod roe). If it's hard to find then simply replace it with tobiko (flying fish roe). Please do not skip the fish roe. Anyway, I bought the mentaiko from Tokopedia around IDR 270k for 500 grams, that's a lot, I know. Alternatively, take a look at Papaya Supermarket or other big supermarket as mentaiko is kinda hard to find here. I made 3 dishes with this Mentai sauce, the first one is the one with crabstick served with rice that mixed with nori powder, you can also use furikake. The second is nori rice with salmon aburi. Lastly, sweet and savory beef with garlic butter shirataki noodles. Well, the last one is definite

Hidden Korean Street Food Place Jakarta

Sebenernya udah tau dari lama cuma baru minggu kesampaian ke K-Bunsik . Lokasinya bukan di pinggir jalan tapi ada di dalam supermarket Korea K-Mart di daerah Dharmawangsa. Gk ada petunjuk jelas untuk K-Bunsik tapi sudah banyak yang tau kok, pokonya langsung masuk ke dalam supermarket aja karena cuma satu lantai jadi pasti ketemu di pojok kiri.  Tempatnya terbilang kecil tetapi cukup bersih, kalau hari biasa bisa dine-in tapi untuk weekend dan hari libur mereka cuma terima take away aja. Kalau diartikan bunsik itu adalah makanan dengan terbuat dari tepung dan biasanya harganya terjangkau.  K-Mart Dharmawangsa K-Bunsik Menu yang ditawarkan adalah street food khas Korea, mulai dari tteokbokki , odeng , rapokki , gimbab , sampai bulgogi rice .  Kebanyakan menunya halal, walaupun ada menu non-halal gk perlu khawatir karena pembuatannya dipisah kok. Kalau pesan menu biasa semua dibuat di dapur depan sedangkan yang non-halal dibuat di dapur dalam. Kebetulan aku datang pas hari minggu j

Bonus: Find out about how to get in K-Pop show and more things to do in Seoul Just finished my third visit to South Korea, it was enough to write about this simple guide, well or just take it as me sharing my stories. First, for us with Indonesian passport, let's just prepare some documents for visa. Either with or without the travel agent, here's my experience applying Korean Visa through Korean Embassy in Jakarta. Get In: By air, most of international flights get in through Incheon International Airport (ICN), though some flights from Japan also flying to Gimpo. First was with Garuda Indonesia. Last year was with Cathay Pacific with a transfer at Hong Kong and a stopover before going back to Jakarta. The airlines I know that have special price for 2 pax purchasing, Singapore Airlines and Cathay Pacific. Service was amazing, personally (for no reason, my un-important thing) I usually make an order for special meal request. From gluten free to vegetarian, it's just fun to
