Dapur Iron Chef

Have you ever seen a TV program called Iron Chef? It is a Japanese television cooking show produced by Fuji Television. I like watching it; the battle between a Guest Chef against the Iron Chef. The chefs must prepare and present their meal of choice using specific ingredients and theme in an hour. Then, the  regular commentators and also guest commentator will comment about the ingredients, history of the chefs  and also other information related to what is happening in the kitchen during the battle. Very interesting! Trans TV (Indonesian national television station) is going to air the new Iron Chef starting from February 2013. 

There will be a new restaurant named after this "Iron Chef"  TV Program - Dapur Iron Chef, in Plaza Senayan, This restaurant is operated as a part of Cool Japan Strategy Promotion Program initiated by METI in order to help Japanese restaurants enter and expand their business in Indonesia. Five restaurants are participating in Dapur Iron Chef during the 9th February until 31st March 2013.
