The Legendary Kemang Steak is Back!!


First thing to say, I wanna thanks Ms. Anne for inviting me to Legendary Kemang Steak at Pantai Indah Kapuk on Saturday, 29th November 2014. Kemang Steak is Back!



A’ight I’m gonna tell you the journey of this legendary kemang steak from the beginning. This Legendary Steak Restaurant was opened in 1992 at Kemang and it moved to Jl. Haji Nawi, South Jakarta in Radio Dalam to be exact in 1993-2009 and was known as the name Pondok Kemang Steak. They’ve been almost 17 years in this business, building reputation, got loyal customers and even famous and an important person in Indonesia came and tried this legendary steak such as Soekarno Family, Celebrities (Titiek Puspa, Tri Utami, Rio Febrian, Jamal Mirdad, Lidya Kandow, Ari Wibowo, Ira Wibowo, Katon Bagaskara, Nugie, Maudy Koesnaedy, etc), also Mr. Natural Universe Bodybuilder Ade Rai, not forgot to mentioned Mr. Bondan the famous culinary expert in Indonesia of course. After that they got hiatus for almost like 5 years and then now they’re back on the business again. Kemang Steak ain’t just some of legend and memories than remain anymore because they’re back with the perfect combination from traditional concept that wrapped into modern concept nowadays. Nothin much changed because you know kemang steak is still maintaining their original concept of using coconut shell charcoal to serve their steak with taste of Indonesian. And before I forgot to tell you that their recipe is 100% from Ms. Henny Family Legacy. 


The Owner: Ms. Henny and Family

This place is warm and quite comfy actually to bring your family or your girlfriend/boyfriend to here as you can see from my photos that I’ve taken.

Now let’s go to second floor where the carnivores gather to eat the steak haha. 


On Second Floor



Me myself I ordered Australian Lamb Chop (IDR 70k) with the medium well steak doneness, it tasty but I gotta to say it was a lil bit fishy. 



Lamb Chop

Actually the first one that came out on the table was the Beef Ribs (IDR 55k) it consist the big beef ribs, potato wedges, corns, carrots and green beans, I more like to eat a lot of meat than just eat this ribs because as you can see it was a big ribs with a lil meat, but the meat tasted real good and I think it’s the main reason they made it the potato wedges so your tummy could be fully loaded. 



 Beef Ribs

Australian T-Bone, there are two options to choose this kind of t-bone, first one for weighs 150gr will cost IDR 60k and the second one will cost IDR 90k(Regular), my friend ordered this one and when I tasted it, oh god a lot of fat in here, seriously girls I don’t think you’re gonna try this one because I know girls in nowadays wanna look like exactly like Victoria Secret Angels body haha but again the sauce from Ms. Henny family recipe is delicious.



Australian T-Bone

Australian Sirloin, there are two types of meat for this sirloin, first one is from Australia, it will cost like IDR 68k and from US, it will cost IDR 98k. Since kemang steak served us with the Australian, this one was also served from Australia. Finally the best one came, the tenderness was perfect and no need to worry about fat anymore. This one was given the best. 



Australian Sirloin

Red Snapper(IDR 75) I don’t know why my friend chose this one, this one came in the last after everyone done eating this dish came haha and for the taste, it tasted fishy and I also don’t like the meat but again the sauce saved the day.


Red Snapper

Australian Tenderloin, there are two options to choose this kind of tenderloin, first one for weighs 135gr it will cost IDR 55k and the second one for Regular it will cost IDR 90k, it tasty and the meat was soft and chewy at the same time when you chew this steak in your mouth but it also contains a lot of fat but you only live once right why don't you give a shot to try this one and enjoy a lil bit taste of heaven through this food hahaha :D




Australian Tenderloin

Mashed Potatoes(IDR 25k) I like the presentation they made, it looks cute like olaf you know from frozen, do you wanna build a snowman? Haha. For the mashed potato I think this is a big portion to eat and it tasted like need more flavor maybe you could added some salt to this mashed potato so it will tasted of something in your tongue.


Mashed Potatoes

Es Kemang Cincau (IDR 25k) this is exactly what I needed when I came to this restaurant because by the time I came it was really hot, literally. It consist grass jelly, basil and syrup for the sweetness of this dessert, it was so refreshing.



Es Kemang Cincau

For the beverages there were Fresh Lime Kemang (IDR 20k), Mixed Juice(IDR 20k) and Lychee Iced Tea (IDR 20k).

For the Fresh Lime Kemang it tasted sour since the taste from the lime came out too strong


Fresh Lime Kemang

Mixed Juice (IDR 20k) it consist kiwi, papaya and nata de coco, I like this one because this is a healthy drink, it mixed right, it was fresh, tasted sweet and chewy


Mixed Juice 


For the Lychee Ice Tea, oh man this drink was really really sweat, when you drink this one it doesn’t help your thirsty but more makes you thirsty, lucky me there was a mineral water that served on my table so decided to drink that mineral water too after drink this sweet sweet lychee iced tea.
