Asuka, JW Marriott Jakarta
The JW Marriott Jakarta’s Asuka restaurant is known for being one of the best Japanese restaurants in Jakarta. The kitchen consistently produces high-quality fare, especially sushi, using ingredients flown in straight from the Land of the Rising Sun. You might not expect to find a crave worthy dessert at a Japanese restaurant, but Asuka does a caramel pudding that is creamy and sweet yet delicate and subtle. A favourite among Asuka’s loyal customers, the custard is made from a simple mixture of milk, sugar, and egg yolks that blend to form a beautiful, light texture. The custard is topped with whipped cream and caramelised sugar, with a subtle hint of bitterness to balance the sauce and leave you wanting more. (www.marriott.com/JKTJW)
