Kobe by Shabu Shabu House AYCE – Pondok Indah Jakarta

Shabu2House recently has opened a new Japanese Buffet all you can eat restaurant at Pondok Indah Mall, Kobe.

Kobe by Shabu2House is located at the 2nd floor of Street Gallery Pondok Indah Mall, the newest building addition of Pondok Indah Mall. The restaurant is spacious and elegant with personal Shabu Shabu pot on top of the table.

Kobe is basically buffet all you can eat restaurant therefore they only have two packages of rate Regular or Deluxe. Both packages already including Shabu Shabu, Steak, Sukiyaki, Drink and Dessert, the only difference is the beef quality where Regular package offers Australian beef and Deluxe Package offers premium US beef for Shabu Shabu, Steak and Sukiyaki.

Talking about the price, it is relatively affordable for all you can eat restaurant, Weekday IDR 149k++ Regular / IDR 249k++ Deluxe and Weekend IDR 177k++ Regular / IDR 299k++ Deluxe with plentiful choices of food, Shabu Shabu, Steak, Sukiyaki, tempura, dimsum, sushi, sashimi, ramen, salad, cakes, macaron, chocolate fountain, ice cream, coffee, tea, etc.

Since this is a Japanese buffet restaurant, almost 80% of the food here are Japanese food, such as Gyudon, Karaage, Sushi, Sashimi, Tempura, Japanese Curry Rice, Japanese Hamburg Beef, etc. So if you are a big fan of Japanese food, I’m sure you will be very happy here.

Each Shabu Shabu is cooked inside personal Shabu Shabu pot on the table and there are 9 types of soup available for you to choose Original, Curry. Spicy Miso, Miso, Sukiyaki, Kimchi, Collagen, Corn and Tounyu.

AnakJajan had Spicy Miso and Kimchi Shabu Shabu soup, both soup are recommended soup flavor here with warming spicy kick. The kimchi was light, refreshing and spicier than Spicy Miso. While the Spicy miso was my favorite, savory rich with a bit of spiciness. As for the beef, because AnakJajan had Deluxe package, it comes with thinly sliced premium US beef, the beef was so tender it melts in my mouth.

Steak available in four types of seasoning, Demi-glace, Onion, Soyu Butter and Blackpepper. AnakJajan’s premium US beef steak was delicious, we chose Soyu Butter seasoning, the beef was freaking tender and juicy. Fyi, you can have your Shabu Shabu beef and Steak countless times as much as you want!

Dessert is something you must not miss! Besides cake, pudding, macaron, chocolate fountain, they also serve soft cream where you can have unlimited Matcha soft cream as much as you can!! There are two flavors of soft cream, vanilla and matcha where you can have twist of both flavors just like I did.

Overall, food at Kobe were pretty good with plentiful choice and reasonable price. It is definitely a heaven of unlimited Japanese food. Let’s Jajan!!
