Shinjuku Izakaya Japanese Restaurant
Japanese food and Japanese culinary have become one of the favorite culinary delights of many people in the world, including myself. The influence of Japanese pop culture such as from Anime, Movie, Music or Manga (Comic) has a very strong influence on people in Indonesia. In addition, many people get their own insight about Japanese cuisine and are also curious to try it.

As long as I join and actively write on Hive. I've visited and reviewed several Japanese restaurants in my city. Some time ago, I got a recommendation for a new Japanese restaurant in my city, Medan City. The new Japanese restaurant is called Shinjuku Izakaya and I had the chance to visit it last week.
Shinjuku Izakaya is located at KH. Zainul Arifin Street no. 177 Medan Baru District – Medan City. We won't find it difficult to find it because it will be very easy to find this Japanese restaurant. Apart from that, the design and architectural style of Shinjuku Izakaya is different from other buildings around it. Shinjuku Izakaya Japanese Restaurant is also right at the intersection of four roads and is surrounded by several strategic objects, such as residential apartments, hotels, schools, elite hospitals, government offices and other corporate offices.


I came to Shinjuku Izakaya in the late afternoon. At that time, the situation of this Japanese restaurant was not too crowded with customers. As a fan of Japanese pop culture, I really like this vibe from Shinjuku Izakaya. Various traditional Japanese ornaments are used as interiors and decorations for this restaurant. When we are inside this Japanese restaurant, we feel like we are in the Shinjuku district.
Menu and Ordering System
For people who follow Japanese pop culture, the term "Izakaya" may be familiar. Izakaya is different from restaurants, we can say that Izakaya is like a traditional Japanese poop. An outlet or shop that serves sake or alcoholic drinks, with accompanying snacks.

Because this Japanese restaurant uses the word "Izakaya" as the name of the restaurant. We will also see various collections of sake and liquor sold by this restaurant. In addition, a collection of beers from various countries is available in this restaurant. For information, I can't drink alcohol, other than because it's forbidden in my religion, I was very dizzy when I tried a little, and that made me not want to try it again.
Shinjuku Izayaka still uses a conventional system. Customers who come will choose tables and chairs, then place an order by looking at the menu book guide. We will pay, after will leave this restaurant.


Shinjuku Izakaya also provides a variety of other foods. We can order main courses, snacks or Japanese-style deserts. I can say, all popular Japanese food in Indonesia is available in this restaurant. Like, ramen, udon, tempura, katsu and nearly 100 other menus. Shinjuku Izakaya also has various attractive promos every day. Like when I came to this restaurant, I got a promo for ordering Beef Curry Udon with Iced Ocha for only IDR 55K (3.62 USD).
Beef Cury Udon – Super Delicious
The food I ordered was made with a made-to-order system. So, when this bowl of udon was served to my table, it was warm and very appetizing. I can't wait to taste it.


Beef Curry Udon is a dish consisting of a bowl of udon (Japanese-style large noodles) doused in Japanese curry sauce, then added meat and green onions as toppings. As you can see in the photos that I uploaded, you will definitely drool and get hungry when you see them.
How does it taste? it's very delicious and tasty. I ate this beef curry udon from Shinjuku Izakaya with great gusto. Even so, this dish was still very hot but I couldn't stop eating it.


The thick and savory Japanese curry sauce from this dish tastes very delicious on my tongue. There is a marked difference in taste between Japanese curry and Indian curry. If the Indian curry will taste spicier with a strong spice taste. Japanese curry has a simpler taste and the taste of potatoes or carrots is very pronounced.
The udon's texture and chewiness is also perfect, feels so perfect. One more thing, the beef topping is also very good for me. For sure, I have tried beef curry udon in various Japanese restaurants or ramen restaurants in Medan City, I feel this beef curry udon from Shinjuku izakaya has the most delicious and authentic taste.

A very pleasant culinary experience for me, I think I will return to this Japanese restaurant to taste other menus. That's all for my culinary experience this time, see you next time.
