Great seating arrangement, great foods, great service
Quite expensive, sucks parking system
What first came to my mind when my friend mentioned ‘Fable’ was 'Another overpriced restaurant filled by rich Jakarta people who dress like clowns with mini skirts and high heels.' But d*** I was wrong! This place is not bad at all!
It is located on the second floor. No elevator, so if you wear long skirt and high heels, please be careful. The seating arrangement is actually really good. They're not cramped, so you can move easily. In the middle were sofas (each table had 2 big sofas and two small sofas, the small ones look like a pair of giant foot rests), around them were bar chairs. When I came at 8 PM, there were only a few people. Talking was very easy, no need to yell to be heard. After 9 PM, people started coming in and around 9.30 PM, there were a band performing live music. Their music choice wasn't bad, consisted of old songs which wouldn't make your ears bleed. I accepted their kind of music.
The food was good. For me, the portion was just right; not too big, but not too small either. The price was quite expensive, from 65,000 to 325,000, but what do you expect anyway? I ordered the wagyu burger, it was served in a big portion and the beef tasted really good. My friends ordered fish and chips, salmon something, and cot fish something. They all looked nice and no one complained about the taste.
The service was also good. Their waiters were waiting everywhere, so you won't get any difficulty in calling them. The staffs in the front desk were also nice. One female staff was very helping in helping us take pictures.
What I hate about Fairgrounds was only their parking system. I paid double - when I first parked and when I wanted to go home - each IDR 10,000 to two different people. The first one looked like a proper 'tukang parkir', the second one looked like a thug. Fairgrounds should consider making a parking lot!
