The
past one year, The Cup Pantai Indah Kapuk has been my go-to restaurant when I wanted
to fulfil my craving for good and easy authentic Korean food. Don’t be fooled
by its eye-catching pastel pop appearance as some of you might mistaken it as a
desssert cafe (or probably underrate it).
For
those who don’t know, The Cup is actually a franchise brand originated from South
Korea and they already have several outlets spread all over Asia, back in
Seoul, the concept is actually more like a fast-food restaurant, instead of the
fancier one like in Jakarta. Do not expect food like Korean grill and BBQ here
as they offer a different, but totally fun Korean dining experience. The
ingredients are mostly still being imported directly from Korea (a good way to
maintain the authenticity and quality of the products). I just love to describe
some of their menus as: “Korean street food made fancier and more stylish” as you’re going to find
some ttepokki, japchae, Korean chicken and jjigae creations.
Recently,
they launched some of their new menus and you’re landing on the right page to
find out the new additions they have in store!
Bibim Cold Noodle – IDR 68k
This
following dish was a rather unique yet still quite enjoyable dish from The Cup,
and is SERVED COLD (they even put icecubes underneath the noodle). The thin
noodle somehow looked like the pho noodle and made from rice flour, and paired
with chopped veges, beef and topped with quail egg yolk. The seasoning was actually
pretty good. Even when I always prefer my food to be hot, this was still a good
fit to my palate.
Japchae - IDR 85k
If you
ask me to recommend you good japchae (Korean vermicelli noodle dish) that you
can find in town, then The Cup’s Japchae certainly falls on the topper
part of my list. The japchae was perfectly seasoned, resulting this very tasty
japchae, altogether perfect balance of sweet, savory and a hint of smokey
flavor from the beef too. I bet you’re going to love this.
Budae Jjigae - IDR 68k
This
would be a great option if you’re craving for warm, soupy and comforting dish,
when it comes to me, I don’t know why it’s always hard to say no to noodle
soup, and in the Korean food case, the “Jjigae”. The Cup’s version of Budae
Jjigae is simplified with elements such as beef corned, tofu, yellow noodle and
all drenched in the mild-spicy soup. I personally could go spicier and expected
the soup to be tastier, but it was very acceptable. I love how generous they
are with the corned beef, just in case you miss the taste of meat to your
noodle soup.
Go Chu Jang Pasta – IDR 65k
Now
this is not the typical Korean dish I see quite often, but I am saying this in
a good way complimenting how creative they are. I would describe this as a
carbonara pasta with Go Chu Jang sauce. The spaghetti was perfectly al-dente with on point firmness. Just
like most carbonara pasta, the cream might be quite thick, but I just love how
the spicy flavor of the Go Chu Jang sauce balanced everything out. The fact
that this dish consist of generous mushroom made this a proper fit for vegans.
Cheese Tteopoki (Korean
Spicy Rice Cake) - IDR 75k
A MUST
TRY FOR AVID CHEESE FAN! I don’t think I would speak much about the goodness of
this dish as I think the picture can speak to you already. Perfectly cooked
tteopokki with proper firmness, fish cakes & veges with spicy gokjujang
based sauce, all covered in mozarella and cheddar cheese and topped with
parmesan sauce. THAT CHEESE STRAIN THO!
Dubu Ori Gui - IDR 120k
Another
personal favorite of mine: Dubu Ori Gui, it’s also a traditional Korean dish
consisting of duck and soya beancurds! In The Cup, the soya beancurd was cooked
in gokjujang based seasoning and the duck was lightly seasoned and cooked in
smoking technique. The duck meats were tender yet beautifully tasty with a hint
of smokey flavor to it & very fragrant as well, the soft soya beancurd gave in a
little play of texture, in contrast to the duck.
Cheesecake Bingsoo - IDR
55k
Also
for avid cheese fan, but this time: DESSERT! Bingsoo is South Korea’s
traditional shaved ice dessert and The Cup is being creative by releasing this flavor.
It’s fun, fresh yet slightly more sophisticated and fulfilling! The cheesecake
bingsoo consist of milk shaved ice with generous cheesecake, wafers, raisins,
almond, one scoop of Vanilla ice cream and dressed in strawberry sauce.
Personally,
I found these new menus from The Cup to be very enjoyable, my personal
favorites would be the Japchae and the Dubu Ori Gui, both were executed
perfectly and “earned” the highest points based on my impressions, but still,
taste is something that’s very personal, so I couldn’t wait for you to try it
and drop your comments below. Thank you for reading!
