Located in the vibrant area Jakarta, SHIO is a culinary treasure. Reimagined with an elegant design, SHIO at InterContinental Jakarta Pondok Indah offers an esteemed Japanese fine-dining experience, inviting guests to embark on an intimate culinary journey. From its eclectic interiors to its refined menu, SHIO embodies the timeless elegance and unparalleled of Japanese culture.
The restaurant is thoughtfully designed, reflecting a deep appreciation for aesthetics and harmony, featuring delicate touches of natural wood, soft lighting and artistic accents. Traditional Japanese art forms, such as iconic ukiyo-e woodblock prints and ikebana flower arrangements, emphasise simplicity and celebrate the beauty of nature.
SHIO’s culinary philosophy is rooted in Japanese artistic traditions, where the presentation of food is important as its flavour. The chefs draw inspiration from seasonal elements and natural landscapes to create visually appealing dishes. Guests can witness the reflection of nature’s beauty on each plate, from the blossoms of spring to the rich hues of autumn.
The menu has been sophisticatedly upgraded to enhance an authentic Japanese dining experience. It seamlessly fuses the traditions of kaiseki dining—a multi-course celebration of seasonal ingredients that highlights the chef’s skills in balancing textures, colours and flavours—with the personalised creativity of omakase, meaning “I leave it up to you.” This allows diners to entrust the chef to curate a bespoke gastronomic journey.
By blending the traditions of kaiseki and omakase, SHIO ensures that each dish incorporates the finest ingredients and time-honoured cooking techniques. A menu highlight includes the A5 Kagoshima wagyu, offering a melt-in-your-mouth experience that showcases the pinnacle of Japanese culinary artistry. For seafood enthusiasts, the grilled lobster serves as a masterpiece, combining exceptional flavour and texture.
Complementing the delicate cuisine, SHIO boasts an exceptional sake collection, featuring one of the most comprehensive and exclusive sake menus in Jakarta. With rare varieties, such as the delicate Daiginjo, the rich Junmai and the robust Honjozo, SHIO’s sake offerings are a treasure trove for connoisseurs and enthusiasts. Each sake has been thoughtfully selected to enhance the flavours of every dish, creating a symphony of tastes that enriches the dining experience. Every sip at SHIO transports you on an exquisite journey through Japan’s culinary excellence. This harmonious blend of food and drink encapsulates the essence of Japanese culinary traditions, presenting an unparalleled gastronomic adventure.
SHIO is more than just a restaurant; it is a homage to the artistry and elegance of Japanese culture. Whether you are savouring the nuanced flavours of a perfectly paired sake or delighting in the artistry of each dish, SHIO offers an experience that is both luxurious and profoundly memorable.
