The Best Sunday Brunch in Jakarta at the moment, that's all that I can say. I have tried so many buffet restaurants at five star hotels but none quite comparable to this. Keraton at The Plaza offers the best quality buffet with the best services at the same time. Located at Bengawan Restaurant, I have to admit that its not the most luxurious restaurants, but again the services and the hospitality are like none others! They don't hesitate to approach your table and serve you whatever you want, even though it is a self serviced buffet restaurant.
I know that 700k sounds very expensive, but after experiencing all these 'luxuries' its just worth it. Especially if you are a massive eater (unlike me). Actually, its not really a brunch If I can say. All the menus here are very heavy, just like any other buffet restaurants. The Sunday Brunch is located at Bengawan Restaurant on the 7th floor of Keraton. Its my second time here actually because last Ramadan, I got invited for Ramadan Buffet package, also at Bengawan Restaurant. But Sunday brunch is only available every Sunday, 12 - 3 PM.
WELCOME DRINK
FYI, the buffet package has been including welcome drink, mineral water, tea / coffee, and variety of fresh juices. Their welcome drink was a soda water with lemongrass and lychee, its traditional but very refreshing. And you can get it anytime you want or they gonna serve you a new one when your glass is finished. And btw, if you want to have Wine / Beef / Champagne, they also have two different packages. From IDR 999.000 to IDR 1.700.000s.
FRESH JUICES
They have some fresh juices that are available on the Dessert station. You can ask the server to serve it for you and its included on the buffet package.
SALAD STATION
Its not just simple vegetable salad, there's even tuna salad (the left most) with variety of dipping sauces.
FRESH SALMON
FRESH OYSTER
You know what, I HATE oyster. I don't know how people can like it, especially eat it raw. But for the sake of 'Gak mau rugi', I tried it one with some lemon juices to get rid of the raw smell. Its not that bad actually, but its just some chewy wet bland food :p I'm sorry Keraton.
MINI LOBSTER OR GIANT PRAWN?
This is not grilled, instead just boiled from *probably* alive. Its really fresh, despite the small size, the meat part was still thick and the flavor was naturally sweet. I didn't put any seasonings on it.
SUSHI & SASHIMI STATION
CAVIAR
KETOPRAK / INDONESIAN SALAD
GRILLED STATION
There are 2 kinds of Lobster as far as I recognized from the shape :p The big one like below is Canadian Lobster, while the far smaller one is Lobster Thermidor. But I might be wrong as well, CMIIW. The Canadian Lobster was really huge and the meat was really thick. You can have it as mush as you want, but I'm not a greedy buffet person. So, I tried one whole only (sliced into two parts). They didn't put too much seasonings whatsoever to the lobster so that we can really taste the sweetness of the meat. Its really fresh though, I really enjoyed it. And in fact, it was my first time having a buffet Lobster.
GRILLED LOBSTER
AUSTRALIAN LAMB CHOP
AUSTRALIAN TENDERLOIN GRAIN FEED 120 DAYS
SEA BASS & RED SNAPPER
KOBE BEEF
The thing that I was really curious about this brunch was the Kobe Beef. The raw kobe beef was not displayed on public, but you can request them as much as you want. Its really tender and moist, plus with the right grilled method, its HEAVEN! They also have Foie Gras that you can request as well, unfortunately I'm not really into Foie Grass, so I didn't try it.
What I like about the service here is they treat you like a king, and thats not what I experienced in many other buffet restaurants at 5 stars hotel. Even when we just arrived on the table, they right away asked us if we wanted to have the grilled meat served on our table. From Lamb Chop, Kobe Beef, Tenderloin, Sea Bass, Red Snapper and Lobster! These were all served even before we asked for it. 10 thumbs up for KERATON!
KEBAB STATION
PIZZA STATION
ICE CREAM (STRAWBERRY, VANILLA, CHOCOLATE)
FONDUE + FRUIT SKEWERS
DESSERTS STATION
[SUMMARY] Get your tummy emptied before coming here and make sure to try their Lobster and Kobe Beef as these two are their main selling point. Make your reservation a week or two before the Day as they are always fully booked for Sunday Brunch.
