Tasting a Delicious Udon After Riding MRT Jakarta

After trying to ride MRT Jakarta and stop at Blok M station, we went to Plaza Blok M. We haven’t plan what to eat here, just looked at the food directory what we haven’t tried, then decided to try Hanamaru Udon.

The waiter who welcomed us was so informative and funny. He could explain the menu well along with the jokes. The order system here is we take the food tray, say to the staff what udon or rice menu that we want, for the rest ready to eat menu, such as tempura is displayed and we could take it first. Lastly, we just pay what we order, prepare the sauce, chili, crunchy tempura, spring onions, spoon, chopstick while waiting our main dish to be served to our table.

Here are what we tried :

Value Set Beef Oroshi Bukkake White + Lemongrass (IDR 49,000)

The value set that consists of chef recommended udon and lemongrass as the drink.
Let’s talk about the beverages first. Lemongrass is the combination of lemongrass and lemon with a little bit sour taste, but still good.

The udon is served with beef, orange radish, spring onions, and lemon. It has a little amount of broth. The beef is tender and tasty. Overall, it tastes good. You could also add on the tempura crunchy and chili.

Himawari Ten (IDR 13,000)

It is a round fried thin tempura with corn and crunchy spinach.

Kamaboko Ten (IDR 13,000)
It is a fish tempura which has chewy and soft texture. Tastes good and recommended!

@YutaE Udon also my favorite food. I haven’t cooked udon yet. What udon dish that you usually cook at home?

Hahaha actually, I’m not that good in cooking Indonesian food, but I love to try it. And when you come to Jakarta, I would recommend some place that serve tasty Indonesian food from fine dining restaurant to the street food :smile:

Hey @Velvel ,

Just wanted to let you know that I removed the language label from your post as it isn’t written in Indonesian and this may confuse people who are searching for posts in this particular language. :]
