The inside of Aburi Wagyu (more photos below)
Well I'm not saying its a clickbait but this restaurant is located in a small area called "Little Tokyo" within the Melawai neighbourhood, South Jakarta. Despite the fact that there tons of good home-styled Japanese restaurants here in Jakarta, Yuki restaurant is definitely one of the go-to restaurant for Japanese comfort food. The restaurant itself is not as hyped compare to other Japanese restaurant (you can see from the number of guests visiting this restaurant in the weekend), but I must say this one is one of the most underrated Japanese restaurant in Jakarta. Not only due to the friendly price of the menus but the flavour is just spot on ! This restaurant reminds me of the random food throughout alleys in Shibuya and Dotonburi, Japan. I must reminds you that this restaurant offer different menu between noon and evening, the one in the noon is more likely in bento sets (that includes rice, miso, and Japanese pickles), while evening menu is more likely into the ala carte menu. I have tried both noon and evening dishes here and I must say that both are delicious (some of the menus are the same, but some of the evening dishes can only be ordered in the evening - like the aburi wagyu). Here are some of Monsturo's favourite dishes:
Aburi Wagyu (you can ask them for well done or medium rare) - evening dishes
Uma-kara Niku-Dofu Gozen (Spicy cooked thin sliced beef & tofu in hot sweet sauce) - Noon and Evening dishes
Wakadori Kuwayaki (Grilled young chicken with sweet garlic soy) - Noon & Evening dishes
Kani Cream Croquette (Croquette with crab meat inside bashed in sweet soy) - evening dishes
Monsturo personal fave: Gobo Karage (Fried Burdock roots) - evening dishes
