EL ASADOR - KEMANG JAKARTA

Last week I stepped out at Kemang area along with my friends. At 1st we want to go to Panglima Polim area but the we cancelled it because a damn traffic that Saturday afternoon. Confuse where to go, when we walk we remember about El Asador that only a step away from our meeting point.


El Asador placed in Kemang area closed to Swiss Bell Hotel. Served South American food that authentic with "parillas'' or barbeque cooking. While "Asado" means short ribs. So it give us a hint a bit abour what El Asador offer. Something grill, something barbeque and something meat. Droolling....


Entering the El Asador restaurant, it full of dark wooden furniture with hanging flag from all over countries.  The rooms split into 3 area, indoor where you can find mini stage for live music on the weekend, big screen TV and bar area. while at outdoor you can choose whether you want to sit at outdoor where you can see the busy Kemang Street or the outdoor inside the building. For smokers, you can sit at the outdoor that facing the Kemang street.


CHIVITO AL PAN - IDR 94.000
Toasted soft bread, churrasco tenderloin steak, lettuce, tomato, ham (beef or turkey), bacon (beef or turkey), mozzarella cheese, fried egg, olives, and homemade mayonnaise. Served with seasoned French Fries.
At first I thought the portion not too big. But then my order, Chivito Al Pan came in a big portion. It's enough to make your tummy full. I love every elements of this menu. The bread is soft not dry and hard, the tenderloin steak is so tender and juicy, it so damn good. The lettuce still fresh and crisp, beef ham and beef bacon give the  crisp texture. Like the seasoned french fries that came along also. Thin cut of fries, so crunchy and not oily.


MILANESA de POLLO - IDR 94.000
Juice marinated chicken breast cooked schnitzel-­style, coated with breadcrumbs, served with ham (beef or turkey), and topped with mozzarella cheese, tomato paste, and green peas. Choose one side dish: Russian Salad or seasoned French Fries.
A simple dish come with a very extra-ordinary taste. This milanesa de pollo really cooked perfectly. The chicken is really tender and juicy. It marinated well. The tomato paste that taste a bit tangy can be a balancing for the chicken that topped in generous amount of mozzarella cheese. The beef ham also tender. Not cooked in crispy texture. Served with Russian salad that contained paprika, potato peas with mayonnaise.


EGGS BENEDICT EL ASADOR - IDR 66.000
Sautéed spinach with cream and a touch of Parmesan cheese, served with homemade Hollandaise sauce, toasted English muffin, and poached eggs. Sautéed mushrooms as side dish.
CHOOSE FROM ONE OF THE FOLLOWING, FOR YOUR EGGS BENEDICT :
* Smoked salmon
* Bacon (beef or turkey)
* Ham (beef or turkey)

English muffin in this Eggs Benedict is so soft and fluffy. Like the way they cooked the spinach and Sautéed spinach and Sautéed mushrooms. It taste a hint of garlic and not overcooked. The hollandaise sauce combine with the parmesan sauce taste right. Not too overwhelmed one another. Here, my friend paired it with the beef bacon.


PASTA EL ASADOR - IDR 61.000
CHOOSE:
Pasta : Fettuccine, Spaghetti, Linguini, and Penne.
Sauce : Pesto, Carbonara, Cheese, Aglio Olio, Arabiata, Bolognaise, and Champignon.
Topping : Sliced chicken breast, Mushrooms, Bacon (beef or turkey), Ham (beef or turkey), and Shrimp.

On the above picture, my friend choose the Spaghetti Cheese topped with Beef Bacon. I usually like my pasta with generous amount of creamy sauce. But now since it only cheese sauce, it looked dry. When I taste it, it pretty good. The cheese sauce is great without overpowering cheesy taste. the spaghetti cooked aldente. And the beef bacon add the more texture to this pasta. Lovely.


EL ASADOR ICE TEA - IDR 25.000
Blueberry Ice Tea with blueberry fruit that give a sour taste


MANGO BERRIES BLUFFING - IDR 50.000
The appearance is so  pretty. Like a sunshine. a combination between mango and strawberries. Give a sweet and sour flavor. Topped with blueberry. So refreshing.

At the end, we're having so much excitement dine at El Asador. The food is so delish and scrumptious. The served is great and the place have a nice ambiance. The portion is so worth the price. Recommended!
