Smoking Joe's...


Smoking Joe's merupakan sebuah restoran bbq yang berasal dari St. Louis, didirikan oleh Chef Joe Rozelle, yang membuka cabang pertamanya di Asia tahun lalu, yakni di Jakarta. Letaknya di The East building di Lingkar Mega Kuningan.


Interiornya cukup simple, dengan nuansa kayu yang kuat. Saat kunjungan kemarin, musik yang diputar musik-musik blues, biar dapet suasana St. Louis-nya kali yah. Oke, next about the food.

 Fried Calamari (IDR 45K++)

 For appetizer, we ordered Fried Calamari. Biasanya kalau di resto American cuisine soal porsi gak usa diragukan, tapi ternyata Fried Calamari-nya porsinya kecil, terutama jika dibandingkan dengan harga. Soal rasa lumayan, dip-nya rasanya unik, mengarah ke asam.

Pulled Pork with reguler fries & lemon butter broccoli (IDR 95K++)

 Untuk menu platter termasuk di dalamnya 2 side dishes, I ordered my Pulled Pork with fries & lemon butter broccoli. Sebenarnya saya berharap brokoli yang agak buttery seperti di restoran lain, tapi pada kenyataannya brokoli-nya hanya brokoli rebus biasa dengan rasa yang plain, untuk friesnya sendiri juga nothing special, dengan porsi so so. Untungnya porsi Pulled Pork-nya sendiri cukup memuaskan. Rasanya sendiri tidak biasa, dan meninggalkan rasa black pepper yang kuat di lidah, saya sendiri di antara suka dan tidak suka dengan bumbunya.

 “Kampoeng” Style Fried Rice (IDR 62K++)

 Fried rice-nya lumayan, but don't expect something too special.

  
¼ Pork Ribs with mashed potatoes & lemon butter broccoli (IDR 150K++)

Pork Ribsnya di-slowly smoked dengan bumbu khusus Smoking Joe's. Daging ribsnya sangat tender, rasanya juga enak. Tapi lagi-lagi side dish-nya kurang memuaskan.

 
 Grilled Banana Split (IDR 50K++)

Just another banana split, you may skip this one, hehe.

 Molten Chocolate Soufflé (IDR 60K++)

Molten Chocolate Soufflé-nya cukup memuaskan, hanya saja a bit too encer for my liking, dan tidak terlalu besar.

Overall, soal rasa Smoking Joe's kurang cocok dengan lidah saya, but again, it's my personal opinion. Siapa tahu malah cocok dengan lidah anda :)
