The Pleasures of Italian Cuisine
Andrea Giannini is the heart and soul behind Sale Ristorante, a charming Italian culinary gem located in Jakarta. The story of this restaurant originated from Andrea's spontaneous purchase of a shop without a clear plan in mind. However, his love for cooking and his Italian heritage guided his path, transforming that simple shop into a place where authentic Italian cuisine comes to life.
What sets Sale Ristorante apart is its welcoming and familial atmosphere. Andrea chose to maintain an intimate and warm ambiance, distinct from the luxurious buildings of other sophisticated Italian restaurants in Jakarta. The idea is to make customers feel at home, as if they were guests of friends or family. Every detail of the restaurant has been personally curated by Andrea,
from the design of each room to the selection of furniture and the artwork adorning the walls.
When it comes to the menu, Sale Ristorante boasts two undisputed protagonists: steak and pasta. The restaurant's specialty is a delicious Italian steak, prepared according to Andrea's secret recipe. The expertly crafted fresh pasta is another highlight of the restaurant. In addition to these dishes, one must not forget the flavorful pizzas and the gelato as a delightful final treat.
Sale Ristorante also offers a selection of cocktails, with a standout being their exceptional Negroni.
Andrea explains that Italian cuisine is based on the use of high-quality ingredients and a respect for the authentic flavor of each ingredient. Some ingredients are even shipped directly from Italy to ensure the genuineness of the dishes. For instance,
Italian tomatoes have a distinctive taste, quite different from the local varieties in Indonesia.
The use of Italian herbs and spices contributes to creating the authenticity of the dishes served at Sale Ristorante.
Despite its success, Andrea has chosen to focus on the current restaurant and not open new branches. His philosophy is to maintain his love for what he does and provide an authentic and enjoyable experience to his guests.
Sale Ristorante has become a place of special gatherings and unforgettable moments for its customers. A particularly cherished memory for Andrea was helping a customer organize a marriage proposal in the restaurant.
This event showcased the significance that the restaurant holds in people's lives.
With Andrea Giannini's passion and dedication, Sale Ristorante continues to offer an authentic and warm Italian culinary experience in BSD. Genuine flavors, a welcoming atmosphere, and attention to detail make Sale Ristorante a must-visit
