Bandar Djakarta

Yeaahh seafood time, most people love seafood very much and so does E.. But I don't really like seafood, when I came to seafood restaurant I can only eat their side dishes.. Poor E, he must be missed the seafood so much since we rarely eat seafood.. This time E opted Bandar Djakarta in Ancol to satisfy his craving..


Bandar Djakarta on weekend is always crowded.. With an open air dining area, dine by the beach, its really a pleasant atmosphere to enjoy the seafood..


For the drink, a fresh Coconut Fruit.. Sweet, refreshing, and the flesh was also soft and tender..


To start with we ordered their Tahu Ondel, its a stuffed fried tofu.. This is my only fave here, we ordered two portions haha.. It's fried tofu stuffed with assortment of veggies..


Generous with the filling, there are carrot cubes, potato cubes, and mushroom.. Eat with its chili, oohh it's so nice.. The deep fried crust was very crispy and it create an extra crunch to each mouthful..


Grilled Kuwe Fish, we opted sweet and spicy sauce for the grilling.. The fish was just perfectly cooked..


Fried Squid, chewy inside and crunchy outside.. E finished it all..


Lastly, for the green we ordered Kangkung Belacan/Shrimp Paste Water spinach.. It cooked very well with the shrimp paste, it tasted spicy and tangy..

Sorry I'm not tell you about the price, I forgot to take the receipt.. I'm quite sure most of seafood lover is already familiar with Bandar Djakarta, they serve a fresh and live seafood with affordable price..

Fish & Co.

Love fish and chip? So don't miss out this place, Fish & Co. a restaurant chain which famous for their seafood in a pan concept..


The fish wooden Placemat...



Such a spacious space inside the mall..



The menu had quite a variety of fish and seafood for their main course to choose..


Blackcurrant Iced Tea (19K), its refill



Different kinds of sauce to dip in, tartar sauce and chili sauce..


E ordered their signature dish.. Fish & Chips (59K), a crispy fried fish topped with lemon butter sauce.. We don't know exactly what kind of fish it is, our guess is dory fish.. But at least the fish didn't smell fishy and tasted good..


Next, the grilled version, I choosed this Kingklip Black (59K), grilled gindara fish with black pepper sauce loads with fries.. I opted the fries for the side dish instead of paella rice.. The fish was fresh and that was such a rich spicy sauce.. Sooo flavorful, and its served straight up in a pan..

I had a great meal there and I will definitely revisit to try out more on their menu..
