At Erre & Urrechu, Gran Melia Jakarta, paella has found a new home. This Spanish dish, known for its wide pan and rich layers of flavor, has long been a symbol of gathering and warmth. Now, it’s being reimagined in Jakarta with a fire-led approach that stays true to its roots while offering something fresh.
The restaurant’s new paella offerings reflect the heart of Spanish cooking—simple ingredients, cooked slowly, and meant to be shared. One version, Arroz Meloso de Setas con Trufa Negra y Queso Manchego, features creamy rice with wild mushrooms, black truffle, and grated Manchego cheese, bringing together earthy notes and soft textures. Another highlights the sea, Paella de Mariscos con Lomos de Pargo Rojo Soasados y Alioli de Gambas, with golden rice infused with Mediterranean spices, topped with flame-seared red snapper and prawn aioli. For those drawn to deeper flavors, Paella de Erretxuleta a la Parrilla con Alioli de Tuetano y Chips de Ajo with a bold take with grilled txuleta steak, bone marrow aioli, and crisp garlic chips, combining smokiness and richness in every bite.
“Paella is more than a recipe—it is tradition, community, and celebration on a plate. At Erre & Urrechu Jakarta, we wanted to bring that spirit to Jakarta, while also adding our own fire-driven touch. Each paella is designed to create moments worth sharing, layered with flavors that are both comforting and memorable,” said Head Chef of Erre & Urrechu Jakarta, Alejandro García Martín.
Each dish is prepared with care, using open fire and thoughtful technique. The result is not just a meal, but a quiet nod to tradition—one that invites diners to slow down and enjoy food that’s made to be shared. With this launch, Erre & Urrechu Jakarta adds a meaningful layer to its menu, continuing its journey of bringing Spanish culinary heritage to the city, one flame and one pan at a time.
