JAKARTA, Indonesia - When they hear the word steak, especially when Wagyu or Angus beef appears, most people will immediately feel dizzy because they think about how expensive it is. Not to mention if you eat with your family. The head is already dizzy at the thought of the numbers on the bill.

This is what prompted Melia Vanda to establish Willie Brothers Steakhouse. "We provide premium quality steaks at affordable prices," he said at the launch at his restaurant, West Jakarta, on Wednesday, May 18, 2016.

Unlike other steak restaurants aimed at the young segment of Jakarta. Willie Brothers chose the concept as a family steakhouse. Melia deliberately chose an architectural design that resembles a house.

When entering from the main door, visitors are immediately greeted with a view of the western-style dining room. Complete with old style decorations (old school) such as wooden clocks, European-style paintings, and indoor plants. The capacity is large enough, namely for 130 people.

On the left side, there is a special room for smoking visitors, with a capacity of 20 people. The style of the room is still the same as that of an old school house, except that the roof is in the form of translucent glass that instantly shows the sky. If you feel cramped, there is a small door that leads to a 3x3 meter garden plot. "We also provide an outdoor yard, so it really feels like a home," he said.
