Room for More
The luxurious Raffles Jakarta continues to create game-changing culinary experiences with its latest innovative concept, The Dining Room
More than just a place for pampering body and soul, the Raffles Jakarta is a lifestyle hub where guests can enjoy upscale shopping, as well as a gym filled with state-of-theart equipment and plenty of sumptuous dining options.
The Dining Room, with its warm ambience and inviting glow, is perfect for those seeking to set out on an impressive gastronomic journey complete with lavish table settings glistening with sparkling gold accents and dazzling crystals. Furthermore, guests are able to join in a unique and interactive experience by visiting the kitchen to enjoy friendly conversation with its renowned chefs.
Striving to keep Jakarta’s gastronomes satisfied, The Dining Room recently invited Singapore’s award-winning Chef Julien Royer—co-owner of Odette, a three-michelinstar restaurant serving modern French menus in the citystate. Odette is where Chef Julien’s homage to his beloved grandmother comes to life thanks to his training with world-class chefs, including the legendary French Chef
Michael Bras. Specialising in haute French cuisine and fine dining, Odette has blossomed with Julien’s love and respect for his ingredients and the people he is cooking for, with the Michelin-star acclaim also named as the region’s finest among Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants 2019.
During a special collaboration with Chef Julien Royer, Odette and The Dining Room presented a delightful sixcourse meal complete with wine pairings that pampered discerning taste buds. From the luscious grignotages appetiser to the tasty Mango Tart, each course was artfully handcrafted and deliciously delightful.
The pièce de résistance of the meal was the succulent and tempting Kobe Beef Filet. The savoury and tender meat is glazed with thick miso caramel sauce and is complemented by corn puree and Japanese maitake mushroom, all bursting with contrasting flavours and textures. All in all, the whole experience is that of a meal fit for royalty.
