Txoko Jakarta

If you think Txoko (pronounced ‘choco’) is only for European and western cuisine, let it surprise you with a delicious Basque-inspired fusion of Spanish cuisine. Basque cuisine is known for its abundance of fish and earthy ingredients sourced from the region’s verdant valleys.

Some main dishes have become favourites, such as the seaweed and squid mellow rice and the raw, thinly sliced prawns torched to perfection in the Garlic Prawns Prêt-à-Porter. Don’t forget to try Gilda, the King of Pintxos, made with olives, pickled green chillies, and salted anchovies for a punchy mix of spice and saltiness.

To complete the table, try its signature Idiazabal Cheesecake. It is crafted from Spanish sheep’s milk cheese and served with honey ice cream, which becomes the perfect indulgence for that particular spot in your belly.
