Asiatale Resto, Senopati - Jakarta

Image
Located in Senopati area that already packed with numerous restaurants, Asiatale Resto & Bar offers more than just a place to eat. They have modern Chinese interior, live music, drinks, spacious dining area, and of course good food. Unlike most the restaurants nearby, here, it's the place where you can enjoy hearty Chinese Food with your family or hangout with friends yes because they have lounge upstairs. The first question to answer, do they serve pork? NO! No Pork No Lard. Because, it's in the south? I don't think so, it's because there are good Chinese Food for everyone. But if you're a bit skeptic about this place as they're not serving pork and not using lard, throw away the thoughts, I will share some of the dishes. Started with Asiatale Selat Popiah , stir-fried glass noodle and chopped veggies inside crispy shell, followed by the Five Spice Binjai Chicken . The popiah was good but to oily to my liking, while the chicken was tasty, deep dried, salt

It's located at the lobby level of The Ritz Carlton Mega Kuningan , it's not an Italian restaurant but they have more to offer, from mouth-watering appetizers to sweet delightful desserts. To describe Lobo Restaurant , a contemporary fine dining, with luxurious interior, genial service, and of course good food. This May, a new Chef de Cuisine from a Michelin Star Restaurant in Bordeaux, France named Chef Jan Scwittalla will be part of Lobo Restaurant. Yes, he's German, and I personally very curious about what will he do, probably French dishes or with a twist of German cuisine. Anyway, I've heard that Lobo is famous for its Steak selection but last week I got a chance to savor some other dishes from the menu, shall we start with the welcome bread? I chose chewy pretzel over soft bread just because it's pretzel. Pretzel Next, Hokkaido Scallop with Parmesan Crumble,  sautéed  b ok choy, passion fruit, and orange. Sometimes, it's not always about the cooking metho

Resep: Cheese Okonomiyaki Recipe (Savory Japanese Pancake)

A fulfilling Japanese snack, my version of Okonomiyaki with bacon and cheese. You can do it without bacon if you don't eat pork or replace it with beef bacon, most of people use pork belly but I thought why not bacon? Talking about the ingredients, you surely can add pretty much anything from chicken to seafood and for the veggies, cabbage is a must, in addition I like it with sweet corn. Some of the uncommon ingredients such as okonomiyaki sauce, dashi , aonori , and katsuobushi can be found at certain supermarket in Jakarta such as Grand Lucky, Ranch Market, KemChick, Papaya Fresh Gallery, and AEON Supermarket in Serpong. Ingredients : 1 cup all purpose flour 3/4 cup water 1 cup cabbage 1/4 cup ham / smoked beef 1/2 cup assorted seafood or chicken 2 eggs 3 stalks scallion, thinly sliced 2-4 slices bacon 1/2 tsp dashi salt to taste Toppings : okonomiyaki sauce cheese mayonaise aonori (green nori) katsuobushi (bonito flakes) sliced scallion Watch the video for the directions
