YUGEN SHABU & SUKIYAKI
Amust-go dining destination for Jakarta's Japanese food lovers, Yugen Shabu & Sukiyaki has garnered countless acclamations and rave reviews since opening its doors to the public. With cityscape views from
The Plaza's prestigious 46th floor in Jakarta, the restaurant is helmed by Chef Hiromi Mizushima and caters to the high-end Japanese shabu-shabu market by only serving the best premium marbled wagyu sourced from boutique cattle houses in Japan.
The meticulous attention to detail starts with sourcing the ingredients, all of which are imported for a refined dining experience. The signature broth is a mild mixture of Japanese spices and a warming pepper that is carefully prepared over several hours as the perfect accompaniment. The finely sliced beef is some of the best to be found, such as Satsuma Gyu A5 4% Miracle, Satsuma Gyu A4 and A5, and Japanese Miyazaki Gyu.
Gently swished in the simmering broth, the melt in the mouth beef takes mere seconds to cook and is even better dipped in one of either the ponzu or the everpopular goma sauces.
For those looking for something new to the palate, the restaurant has recently introduced yakisuki charcoal grill into the menu. Thick slices of premium meats are cooked over hot charcoal that will melt instantly when it hits your mouth. In addition to the meat option, diners can also indulge in the à la carte menu including appetisers such as tebasaki truffle rice, foie gras gyoza, king crab chawanmushi and more. Or, try Japanese desserts, including the chef's own delicate warabi mochi for a perfect ending to a nourishing meal that warms the heart and soul.
