Hog’s Breath Café Saloon and Grill which is one of the leading Steak House restaurants from Australia just opened their first branch in Central Park Mall, West Jakarta, since the end of June 2014. Hog’s Breath was first opened in 1989 in Queensland, Australia. Now the brand itself has opened 84 steakhouse restaurants in Australia and overseas, such as in New Zealand, Singapore, Vietnam, Thailand, Papua New Guinea, and Philippines. That’s why, Hog’s Breath Fans will surely be pleased to hear this news. This first and newest branch in Jakarta boasts a nice atmosphere with the wind breeze on the terrace overlooking the green trees at Tribeca Park. Air-conditioned interior is also available with wooden floors, humorous frames, posters, and several other American decorations on the walls. This restaurant seems to be a sports bar as well, with huge screens, a wide range of beers, wine, and good food.
Hog’s Breath Cafe is well known for their Prime Ribs as its signature dish. I was so curious to find out as I heard when all their steaks had been slow cooked for 18 hours in a special oven. Besides Steak, they also serve a wide variety of menus, from Appetizers, Seafood, Salads, Burgers, Flame Grilled Ribs, Desserts and even Kids Menu.

Peach Virgin Mojito, IDR 45K
I love how fresh and refreshing this non-alcoholic drink with Peach flavor and fresh peach inside, perfect for summer!
Mango Mixed Smoothies, IDR 38K
Another drink recommendation for those who loves something smooth and sweet, Mango Mixed Smoothies can be a good option! A healthy and delicious start before having the main course.
Finger Food Combo, IDR 98K
Finger Food Combo allows you to be able to taste four different appetizers. This sample platter has everything that I like; Full and Loaded Potato Skins, American Style Buffalo Wings, Chicken Tenders and Salt and Pepper Calamari. The golden crisp Chicken tenderloin tasted good and best eaten with the Hog’s Breath Honey Mustard dip. While the well seasoned Salt and Pepper dusted Calamari, my favorite among three others sample, goes well with the Lime Sweet Chili Dip. Not to forget, deep fried potato skins loaded with chili con carne topped with golden melted cheese, sour cream and chives tasted lovely!
Garlic Prawn Prime Rib Steak, IDR 269K - Regular Size
Hog’s Breath has a specialty with its signature prime ribs. As I said earlier, the prime ribs are slow cooked for 18 hours to achieve the perfect texture. They recommended (and I do, too!) me to try the Garlic Prawn Prime Rib Steak, one of the best-seller steaks in all branches. Thick slab of regular size steak (200gram) served with three large fresh prawns on top, with overflowing and mouth-watering Hog’s garlic and white wine cream sauce. The meat was cooked in a medium rare level, very juicy and tasty, but not overly fatty. The steak came with a choice of Curly Fries or Mashed or Baked Potato or Cajun Rice and a choice of Salad or Fresh Vegetables. Crunchy curly fries and Salad became a good accompaniment to the prime ribs. A must try!
Smoked Pork BBQ Ribs, IDR 178K - Half Rack - Non Halal
Another great dish that I’d like to recommend, is the signature Smoked BBQ Pork Ribs. Tenderly delicious Hog’s style baby back pork ribs basted in Hickory Smoked BBQ sauce and served with curly fries or mashed potatoes, and seasonal vegetables or salad. The pork ribs taste flavorful and easily fell off the bone! It’s finger licking’ good!
Key Lime Cheese Cake, IDR 55K
Of course, we tried some of their favorite desserts! Creamy and not too cheesy, with a tangy lime flavored served with Vanilla Ice Cream. It has the zest of lime that gives a unique texture in the cake.
Mississippi Mud Cake, IDR 69K
An impressive mud cake, a special dessert created by Hog’s Breath. This rich, thick and moist chocolate cake comes with overflowing chocolate sauce, harmonized with a scoop of Vanilla ice cream on the side. A sweet ending to our sweet tooth!
Don’t miss it!! Hog’s Breath Cafe Saloon and Grill Jakarta is having Oktoberfest Promotion! And, every Sunday, it’s time for the Kids Eat Free Day! This promotion is available for kids under 12 years old, and they can enjoy the Kid’s Menu for free when parents dine in at the restaurant.
