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

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
