Altitude Grill Jakarta: Steak and Confit Shallot

Can you name places to savor proper steak in Jakarta, not many. Here's the newest, Altitude Grill. With great view from the 46th Floor at The Plaza, dinner will be even more romantic. More than a steak house, they have a lot more to offer. Premium cuts, dry aged beef, and of delicious side dishes. They're using Omi Hime wahyu from Shiga Prefecture.

Started with Grilled Watermelon Salad (IDR 120.000) served with feta, arugula, and 25 years aged Balsmic vinegar, light and fresh, the grilled watermelon has very unique texture, closely like sashimi. 
Apple Mango Prawn Cocktail (IDR 120.000)
Scallop Squid Rings (IDR 250.000) with crispy pancetta and raspberry jam, delicate appetizer, salty pancetta with sweet and sour raspberry, great combination.






Next Triple Cooked Wagyu Ox-Tongue (IDR 180.000), super tender, melt in mouth, I'm not a fan of tongue but it was an exception. Served with hazelnut pure, the onion was lovely.


Bistecca ala Altitudine Sher Wagyu MBS 8/9 T-Bone IDR 250.000 / 100 gr - Ribeye IDR 420.000 / 100 gr. Both were super, but personally I prefer the ribeye, fatty, more juicy, and tender. While the T-Bone was very meaty and flavorful, I like the crispy edges though. Every steak comes with 3 condiments, chimichurri sauce, mustard, and herb salt. I don't think I need sauces, but just a little salt as a company to my steak, as the meat was good on its own.




Side dishes were also very interesting, my personal favorite is the Shallot Confit (IDR 75.000), no disturbing onion fragrant, a bit sour, named it onion pickles, so good, it's a must try. Buttered Brocolli Gratin (IDR 75.000) creamy baked broccoli, it was good but not special. Buttered Spiced Corn (IDR 75.000) super fragrant, smoky, and addictive. Some other options are Whipped Potato (IDR 90.000) and Truffle French Fries (IDR 95.000), you know it's just another must order, just because it's truffle.

condiments and side dishes



For the dessert, the have a dessert buffet with only IDR 150.000 you can enjoy from sliced cakes to ice cream. The options are quite diverse, from cheesecakes to tiramisu. They have a good chocolate ice cream, rich and creamy. Verdict? The most memorable was the confit shallot, to me it's just another new interesting companion for having steak while I attached to potato most of the time. Summed up, it was nice experience, warm service, great view, and good food. They're open for lunch and dinner, but I recommend to come for dinner to experience better atmosphere.

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

Resep: Savory Waffle (Pepperoni + Cheddar Cheese) Resep

Image
I've made waffle many times, and I prefer of light and crispy waffle to bread-like waffle. Adding some tapioca flour gives a quite significant result, also separating the egg though mostly I skipped that phase. Anyway, waffles are great with syrup, chocolate, fruits, and ice cream but have you ever tried savory waffle? With bacon, smoked chicken, sausage, cheese, or pepperoni. Freshly made waffles are best, when making waffles make sure that you have all the toppings ready on the table.  Ingredients : 1.5 cup all purpose flour 1 cup tapioca flour 2 eggs 1/2 cup plain yogurt 2 tsp baking powder 2 tsp baking soda 1 cup milk 1/4 cup melted butter 1/4 cup vegetable oil 1/4 cup pepperoni, sliced 1/4 cup green onion, thinly sliced 1/4 cup red cheddar cheese, grated salt to taste few tbsp of water, if needed Directions : For the dry mixture, add flour, tapioca, salt, baking soda, and baking powder into a bowl, mix well. In another bowl combine egg, yogurt, melted butter, oil, and milk. Co

Nomz Kitchen & Pastry Grand Indonesia: New Menu

Image
Ones behind Nomz, Arnold Poernomo and Pastry Chef Kim Pangestu. Famous for their sweet treats, but how's the food? At this time, I'd like to introduce some of their new menu. First let's start with something fresh, salad. I've been a fan of Nomz's Tomato Salad for quite a while, now they have two more, Middle Eastern Salad (IDR 80.000) and Fried Calamari Salad (IDR 60.000). Not for everyone, but me as one who really into greens. Calamari salad might suit to people in common, dressed with balsamic lemon, topped with fresh arugula, coriander, and shaved parmesan. My guessing it's balsamic reduction as it's sweeter than balsamic vinegar. Meanwhile, Middle Eastern Salad is actually tabbouleh, usually made using bulgur but they replaced it with quinoa , yes for superfood! Pretty healthy yet fulfill the hunger longer. Have no idea what's quinoa ? Google it, it's 2015, eat your superfood!  Move on to  Nomz Prawn Roll (IDR 105.000) garlic chili prawn, gr
