Goemon

The authentic Japanese restaurant in the Jakarta office building area? Yup I didn't expect at the first time to find the Japanese restaurant in this area, especially the authentic one.. Usually we can easily find the authentic Japanese restaurant in Melawai and surrounding areas..


Can anyone read Japanese kanji? Whether that means Goemon?hehe.. We asked the waiter, and yup this is it, Goemon..


When you step into the dining area, you'll be asked to put off your shoes.. Relax, they'll keep your shoes safe and the carpet is clean.. See the place, so Japanese yaa..


Even though the place is hidden far from the crowd,but when we came the place was crowded, we only got the seat in the bar area..


It's quite interested seated in bar area, watching the chef prepare the meals from here..


The place is so Japanese..


The opening compliment was a Japanese pickles with pork chunks, salty and tasty..


Started with Okonomiyaki Butatama (33K), Japanese savory pancake with pork on it covered with mayonnaise, okonomiyaki sauce, and bonito flakes..


Crave something soupy and light, I opted Nabeyaki Udon (50K), udon soup with chicken chunks, egg, fish cake, veggies in hot pot and it came with two mushroom tempura.. The soup was just rite, not too salty and not too bland..


While E ordered Katsu Curry (58K), steamed rice served with pork katsu and poured with mild curry gravy.. The set came with miso soup and salad, a complete meal..


Really generous with the gravy, nice..


Fruit cuts to close our dinner, this also a compliment.. Really nice yaa..

Are you a Japanese food lover? And looking for an authentic one with an affordable price? The answer is Goemon, worth trying.. You can see the authenticity of the restaurant from the patron itself, almost all patron here is Japanese..
