You can easily notice at it's racing car at front, tablecloths with racing flag's motif, racing flag plate at room numbers and many more around the hotel area. LIH is a national hotel chain that stands in the proud tradition of Indonesian hospitality. The growing business in the region had created opportunity for society to travel for business purposes and seek a new standard of accommodation at affordable rate. Whether traveling for business or leisure, you can find more value for less at all of their convenient locations including city, centers, suburban, interstate, small towns, airport, convention properties and resort hotels.

Let's take a quick look at Podium Resto while waiting for lunch time. Noticing another sporty touch with the helmets and signed photos of the world famous racers along the wall. The color of Black and white from racing flag also dominating the room from the walls to furniture. Finished looking around, now is the perfect time to queue at the center to enjoy the buffet from Podium Resto.

Well, I think it's not fair just promoting their new menus without tasting them. Let's scroll and roll to find out more...

FOOD

Salmon Miso Soup (Nabemono)

IDR 68.000

One of the "nabemono" or hot pot dishes, consist of nori, mushroom, carrot and of course salmon cooked with miso soup. My order that afternoon, the taste probably not as extravagant as the other dishes but I like it. The thick miso seasoning within the soup bring up the Japanese taste to the juicy salmon and other ingredients in it.

Nabeyaki Udon

IDR 68.000

Just catch a glimpse about this hot pot, the look quite promising. I didn't have the chance to taste it, but I put it here anyway to add more nabemono options for you.

Premium Saikoro Steak with Rice

IDR 68.000

Next from ala carte menu, Premium Saikoro Steak with a bowl of steamed rice. Saikoro steak a common dish from Japan, tenderloin cut in cubes pan fried with cashew nuts in a high flame. Yum... yum... I mean who doesn't like tenderloin steak.

Ten Ten Signature Stone Rice

IDR 68.000

This one is a must try if this your first visit to Ten Ten. Japanese mixed rice with ebi sakura topped with grilled fish, ebi tempura and squid. There's nothing more to describe this dish than completely delicious.

Tori Momo Stone Rice

IDR 58.000

Another stone rice collection, tori momo. Grilled chicken with special sauce and edamame on top of the steamed rice in a stone bowl to maintain the heat. This one is unexpectedly GOOD, ohhh don't forget to mix before you eat!

Salmon Ohba Pesto Stone Rice

IDR 68.000

Salmon with ohba pesto sauce on rice, garnished with nori slices, sweet corn and baby tomatoes. Pesto sauce at Ten Ten modified using ohba leaves instead of basil that commonly used in Italy, the origin country of pesto. Mix mix mix...

Cheese Beef Hamburg with Rice
IDR 62.000

One of my fave, minced meat with mozzarella cheese within it and stir fried vegetables served on a hot plate. As soon as you cut the meat you'll notice that sticky gooey cheesy juicy beef must be delicious, and it sure does!

Grilled Fish Ohba Cream Sauce with Rice (Salmon)

IDR 68.000

This one taste quite unique, if you like herbs this should be in your picked list. Grilled fish (you can choose between salmon or red snapper) cooked with Ohba cream sauce, enoki and mushroom then garnished with nori slices.

Premium Saikoro Ramen

IDR 68.000

Noodle cooked with ohba pesto topped with premium saikoro steak and sprinkle of cashew nut slices. My friend's order, they claimed this dish is extremely tasty.

DESSERTS

Matcha Lava Cake

IDR 28.000

Lava cake in matcha flavor with red beans sauce on top. For green tea lover this cake would be a dear. Served with a scoop of matcha ice cream to balance the sweet matcha filling from the cake. Eat them together and it just perfect!

Red Velvet Lava Cake

IDR 28.000

Red velvet lava cake, another variation from lava cakes collection. There are three of them, red velvet, matcha and chocolate, each of them accompanied with a scoop of ice cream.

Red Velvet Cream Cheese Ice Cream (hot plate dessert)

IDR 32.000

Woohoo this is my favorite dessert! The red velvet cake on a hot plate and ice cream on top then poured with cream sauce. You can pour the sauce on your own or let the waitress do the dirty work, just kidding this is fun. Bottom of the cake will become more crunchy and tastier due to the hot plate, cold on top and hot at the bottom. A perfect combination for a great taste, two thumbs up! There's two other hot plate dessert combination, Cheese Pound Cake Matcha Ice Cream and Brownies Chocolate Ice Cream.

Fruit Kakigori

IDR 32.000

Vanilla shaved ice with fruit toppings and mango sauce. Another yummy treat for those looking for refreshing dessert. The shaved ice so moist almost just like ice cream and the sauce is superb.
