Local Steak House: Super Steak

It was one of those days; when we didn't feel like dressing up for dinner however too lazy to cook at home so we decided to check Super Steak out. I have been wanting to try this highly raved (by local bloggers) Steak House for a while- mostly out of curiosity and also for the experience.

You see, Super Steak is literally a Steak House... A house that serves steaks. The owner is selling grilled steaks right at his front porch of his home. The menu serves 3 types of beef and cuts- Angus(Imported) , Black Angus(Imported) and Local Beef; Sirloin, Ribeye and Tenderloin. Do not attempt to go there if you don't take beef as it is the only type of meat on the menu.

G had the Black Angus Sirloin(200g) with butter garlic sauce.
I decided to go for the Black Angus Ribeye(200g) with Cajun seasoning.


Small yet bustling throughout the evening.

I found the choices of seasonings or sauces most interesting as it is definitely not your mainstream type of sauces which you usually find in western restaurants. There are flavourings like Butter Garlic, Beerloin, Cajun, and five other more options to choose from. 

We found the steaks to be only slightly above average, definitely not anything mind-blowing; although we understand why the local Indonesians like it so much, the meats are very well-seasoned and savoury (enveloped by whichever seasoning you chose). Whereas if you like to taste the natural sweetness of your steak, you will not enjoy the steaks here as much.

We thought the ambience could be better improved, but perhaps the locals and Australians dig it because of how laidback it is-  like having a barbecue at one's backyard. Also, beware of mosquitos swarming around your legs.

The price is at no means cheap either, it costed an average of 200,000rp (~20usd) per person without alcohol. One could top up couple more dollars and have a steak in place with a nicer ambience. However I would still encourage one who's really bored of the usual dining options to give it try for a a different experience. Go with couple of friends whom you can have beers along with steak. :)

Ikkousha Japanese Ramen in Jakarta

We were craving for something soupy the other day; Indonesian food is mostly fried. We decided to check out the ramen store- Ikkousha. We went to the branch in Senayan City but they have couple of outletsIt is supposed to be a franchise from renowned ramen chain in Japan. I was feeling a bit skeptical of halal ramen-  you know great ramen broth is usually stewed from pork bones. The ambience is pretty nice and its attempt to make it look japanese is not bad. Miso Ramen Some spicy egg broth ramen, surprisingly tasty! Chicken Karage The outcome? I was surprised that it was pretty good! Of course it lacks the oomfph of the usual thick pork broth but they got the taste as well as the ramen right. I found the spicy egg broth really delicious and satiable to my soup craving; it's quite spicy though. The prices are also reasonable, costing about 80,000IDR (8USD) per bowl. Since we live only couple minutes away, we will definitely be coming back here quite regula...

Weekend brunch: Tana Merah Coffee Shop, Jakarta

My Indonesian girlfriend and I decided to check out this cafe- Tana Merah Coffee Shop for brunch last Saturday. Tana Merah Coffee Shop is located near Thamrin City amongst a row of shophouses. It is quite hard to find if you are going there for the first time. Just give the cafe a call (like we did) and they will give you or your driver precise directions to the cafe. This post will have lots of foodporn! Yay! For once, I made a conscious effort to take pictures of the food before digging into it. The reason I can't be a food blogger (despite I am such a foodie!) is that I can barely have the discipline to take pictures of all the delicious yummy dishes before I already poked one of my utensils in. Upon entering the cafe. Situated amonst a row of shophouses. I eyed the next table's order and the sandwiches looked great so I decided to order one for myself. My friend went for the french toast. The food presentation (for Jakarta standards) was pretty good and th...

Dinner Buffet At The Ritz Carlton, Asia Restaurant (Mega Kuningan)

To 'celebrate' our successful week in Jakarta, I suggested to G that we should do a nice dinner at the Ritz just across the street. It was actually just an excuse to have a variety of food that I would like- satisfying both my Sashimi and Bakso (Indonesian meatballs) cravings at the same time. So we arrived at the Ritz, just 2 minutes drive or 5 minutes walk from our apartment and was greeted once again, by an entourage of friendly and eager staff (seems like every slightly higher end place in Jakarta practise this). I was pretty looking forward to the dinner as I'd thought that the Ritz will probably have one of the best buffets in town (I am a huge buffet lover).
