[Fun! Japan Reporter] Okonomiyaki En Japanese Dining Bar

Reported by Fujimayui

Hi everyone!

Happy new year to all of you, i hope it gonna be a great year ^^

What did you do on year end holiday?

I watched some old animes and when i watched Ranma 1/2 , i suddenly want to eat Okonomiyaki. haha

 (Anyone here still remember Ranma ½ ? ^^)

Do you know Okonomiyaki?

Everyone who love Japanese food will never missed this one.

Okonomiyaki is known as Japanese pizza or pancake.

It made by flour, dashi, egg, grated and shredded veggies like yam and cabbage and basically topped by katsuobushi (bonito flakes), mayo, and sweet sauce.

I heard that Okonomiyaki in En Dining restaurant is delicious and different from other Okomiyaki sold in a Japanese event (i usually buy Okonomiyaki when attending Japanese event) so it made me really curious. Then i went to En Dining at Plaza Indonesia.

EN Japanese Dining Bar is a Japanese Restaurant with specialty in Okinawa cuisine. They have 3 locations, Melawai, Senayan City and Plaza Indonesia.

 “えん(En)” is a Japanese word means 'a circle of gathering for friends'. 

As its main concept, En Dining restaurant is a cozy, warm atmosphere, and elegant place. I think it perfect for gathering. we can choose to seat in Sushi counter or VIP room or usual dining area. They even have TV too so you can watch your favourite channel or tournament together.

There’s a lot of menu that really temptating but it didn’t take a lot of time for me to choose because my main purpose is Okonomiyaki! ^^

At first i thought i am gonna make Okonomiyaki by myself but i was wrong. It already served well in hot plate. I really wanna try making Okonomiyaki though (still Ranma ½ effect) haha

And as i ever heard, the Okonomiyaki here is delicious and different from i ever tried before!

The texture of pancake is soft and well cooked. The cabbage and shrimp are crunchy yet soft. There’s also a ginger inside. The sauces, mayo and katsuoboshi makes it perfect taste. I love it.

I ate 3 pieces of Okonomiyaki but still not enough (or maybe i’m just curious to try another menu) so i ordered Tonkotsu ramen.

The noodle is thin, soft and chewy. It served in hot pork broth with a piece of tender Char Siew (sliced roast pork), ginger, and half of boiled egg. The char siew is tender and tastes decent. The broth goes well with the ramen noodles. It’s savoury but not overly-rich. I drank the whole bowl ^^

After that, the waitress told us that if we write a review on Zomato, we can get free dessert. So without saying anything anymore i downloaded the application and wrote a little review.

So here it is the free dessert that i choosed ^^

✿Macha pudding

I really love this pudding! The texture is really soft, flavor of Macha melted in my mouth and the chocolate stick blended perfectly with the pudding.

✿Macha ice cream

Another must try Macha flavor ice cream. The taste and texture are just perfect. One scoop is not enough!

I ate a lot today but there’s no guilty feeling for eating such delicious foods haha.

Anyone ever tried Okonomiyaki in En Japanese Dining Bar also? What do you think? ^^
