Every time I want to pig out on BBQ in Jakarta, Kintan Buffet automatically pops into my head. After all, with 5000+ reviews on Google and a high score of 4.9, it's hard not to be curious. Especially when I heard that students can get all-you-can-eat for just 99k[1] with a student ID. The 'veteran student' in me just had to check if this deal was worth it! 🤔
A Paradise for Meat Lovers, and It Lives Up to the Hype!
The moment you step inside, the aroma of grilled meat hits you, and your appetite is instantly ignited. We chose the mid-range package, and it turned out to be more than enough. When the meat arrived, its fresh and juicy texture[2], sizzling on the grill, was seriously top-tier ASMR! It was marinated so well, and wrapping it in lettuce for one big bite was just Mantap! 👍
Besides the BBQ, the buffet counter is also very impressive. There's all sorts of fried chicken, kimchi, miso soup... all for you to take. Halfway through your meal, don't forget to save room for their signature dessert, Croffle, and the amazing potato wedges[3]. They're the perfect way to finish.
Praises and Criticisms, Let's Get Real
Of course, as usual, let's be real here. While most of the meat was on point, the beef tongue[4] that day was a bit disappointing. The quality isn't very consistent, so beef tongue lovers might want to lower their expectations. Also! It gets super crowded during peak hours, and the aisles are so narrow it's hard to even turn around[5]. It's a bit tough to just Nongkrong and chat with friends.
