Middle Eastern, Moroccan, and Turkish Delicacies at MAROUSH - Crowne Plaza Hotel



MAROUSH is a restaurant located on the second floor of Crowne Plaza Hotel. This Morrocan themed restaurant serves Middle Eastern cuisines like Indian, Moroccan, and the lastest one, Turkish. MAROUSH is also complemented with a Champagne Bar and Sheesha Lounge.


Every side of  MAROUSH is filled with furnitures and decorations those were brought straight from Morocco. There are also some private rooms those can be used for meetings and private parties. Earthy color tone, beautifully engraved Moroccan furniture, accompanied by traditional Moroccan decorations such as paintings, lamps, clothing, even traditional Moroccan weapons, it was like flying to Morocco to enjoy lunch,

Karidesli Peynirli Mantar

Those menus are available for appetizers at MAROUSH. My personal favorite was the Feta Spinach Borek - crispy, cheesy, savoury - the kind of dish that could never go wrong.

Firindra Ezmeli Balik

Fillet of marinated fish pan fried with ezme sauce, sauteed vegetables, cheddar cheese.

Feslegenli Patlican Sarmasi

Fried eggplant parcels with sauteed vegetables and fresh basil.

Lamb Shank Cous Cous

Wood-fire oven cooked lamb shank served with cous-cous and cobain salatasi.

Chicken Lemon and Olives

Chicken pieces braised with spice, garlic, onion, olives, lemon cooked in tagine (claypot dish used for slow cooking food with no oil & water - preserving all the juices and nutrients of meat & vegetables).

Saffron Rice

Rice, safron, carrot, paprika, onion.

Of all the main courses above, nothing failed my tongue. The Firindra Ezmeli Balik (fish menu) was really nice and delicious, the Feslegenli Patlican Sarmasi (eggplant menu) was also superb, I'm not really into eggplant but this dish won my toungue. The Lamb Shank also was super tender fir it was cooked for 8 hours.

Baklava

Layers of filo pastry, butter, pistachio - baked sweetened with homemade syrup and honey.

Firindra Sutlac

Wood-fire oven baked creamy cold rice pudding.

The dessert menus were also nice!

I think MAROUSH is a wonderful place to have your Middle Eastern dining experience. About pricing, I assume that you should expect to spend around 500K++ for two persons.

Dimsum & Cocktails at Newly Relaunched QI DINE & LOUNGE


It's Friday already, time to slow down a little bit. Kalau kalian ngantor seputaran Gatot  Subroto dan mencari tempat untuk nongkrong dalam rangka menghindari kemacetan, mungkin tempat ini bisa jadi salah satu pilihan kalian. QI Dine & Lounge ini terletak di dalam kompleks Hotel Sultan, dan berada di bawah grup yang sama dengan Nan Xiang. 


QI merupakan sebuah lounge, sehingga suasana di dalamnya cenderung gelap, di mana tamu bisa bersantai duduk menikmati makanan dan minuman di tempat duduk yang ada, kebanyakan berupa sofa, dan juga menikmati live music yang ada. Space-nya cukup besar, dan juga terdapat pintu yang menghubungkan langsung dengan Hotel Sultan.





Salah satu keunikan tempat ini adalah menu utamanya yang adalah dimsum dan cocktails, yep, you read it right. Paduan cocktails dan dimsum ini baru saya temukan di QI. Menu makanan yang ditawarkan QI kebanyakan berupa light bites, namun selain dimsum, ada juga pilihan lain seperti nachos, juga french fries. Berikut beberapa makanan juga cocktails yang sempat saya coba saat mampir di QI.

Super Rainbow Bun - IDR 68,000

Super Rainbow Bun terdiri dari 8 potong steamed buns yaitu Green Tea Buns, Salted Egg Buns, Choco Buns, dan Chicken Buns yang juga dapat dipesan secara terpisah. I enjoy their buns, especially when they were still warm, they were a bit chewy just the way I like my buns. 

Green Tea Bun

Menurut saya Green Tea Bus ini paling unik, karena memang masih jarang ada di tempat lain. This Green Tea Bun was not disappointing either.

Flying Noodle - IDR 78,000

Kalau ingin makan yang lumayan berat, mungkin kalian bisa mencoba Flying Noodle ini, Why Flying Noodle? You might see from the presentation above, dalam penyajiannya terdapat sumpit 'terbang' di atas piring. Flying noodle ini terdiri dari 3 jenis mie yang terbuat dari sayur-sayuran yakni pocai, ubi, labu, yang membuat rasa bersalah saya makan mie malam-malam berkurang sedikit. A bit healthier right? Flying Noodle ini disajikan juga dengan semangkuk broth yang gurih dan sedap. Bumbu mie-nya sendiri cocok di lidah saya, cenderung asin, dengan taburan bawang goreng yang cukup banyak, dan edamame sebagai pelengkap. 

Steamed Dimsum Platter - IDR 98,000

I also tried their Steamed Dimsum Platter. Steamed Dimsum Platter ini terdiri dari prawn & chicken siomay, hakau, dan vegetables hakau. Everything was quite nice.

Fiery Phoenix - IDR 85,000

Cocktail pertama yang saya coba di QI adalah Fiery Phoenix yang merupakan mixture dari vodka, strawberry syrup, fresh strawberry, fresh chili. Yes! Fresh chili! This was one spicy cocktail but I quite love it and I did finish the whole glass. Rasa vodkanya tidak terlalu strong, dan keseluruhan rasanya asam, manis, dan meninggalkan sedikit rasa pedas di lidah dan tenggorokan ketika meminumnya. 

Goin-Nuts - IDR 85,000

Another cocktail that I tried was this Goin-Nuts, a mixture of light rum, dark rum, vanilla ice cream, chocolate, crackers, a bit of whipped cream. I somehow felt that this cocktail was a dessert menu since it was quite thick and creamy, with ice cream, and wafers on the top of it. The rum scent was quite strong, but it tasted quite sweet.

So, if you might want to give dimsum and cocktails combination a try, go visit QI.
