tl;dr: Gold Table Group's flagship peranakan style cuisine. A luxurious dining experience that's actually relaxing.  

*Ambience* 
Located in The Maja, you'd probably not realize that there's actually a fine dining restaurant here, unless you're an employee of EV Hive. Not your regular high-end Indonesian restaurant, Blue Jasmine serves cuisines that is best described as Peranakan. The restaurant is split into 2 dining areas (indoor and outdoor) and both are top-notch in giving customers a satisfactory dining experience. The indoor section is decorated in a style that's clearly colonial-style. However, the British colonial style, not the Dutch. 
As recommended by my host, we decided to enjoy our meal in the outdoor section of the restaurant. The vertical garden is the main attraction here and despite it being open-air, it's actually still indoors. So, it's not going to be a humid and smog-filled experience. 

*Appetizers*
Started off with the Manadonese salad that's masterfully garnished with edible flowers. Simple flavors and a great way to begin my dining experience.

*Entrees*
3 more entrees came in and I thought all of them were amazing. The Australian sirloin was grilled to perfection and the zesty and mildly hot Sambal Matah gives a vibrant overall taste. The Salmon was slightly overcooked on the outer layer, but the flavor of the laksa sauce really compensated for it. This delicious laksa sauce is nothing similar to the ones you get in Singapore/Malaysia. More of a curry-like consistency and I find it hard to pinpoint the flavor profile here. "Fusion" is the best word I can think of right now. Another favorite vegetable dish here is the Oseng Teri Bunga Pepaya (Sauteed papaya flowers and anchovies). One of the unique vegetables that you'd only get in Indonesia, Blue Jasmine managed to minimize the bitterness that's associated with the dish, making it a palatable dish that will not turn off customers that have yet to try this dish.

*Drink*
The Coconut Lime Mojito here is not alcoholic, to start off. However, it's such a refreshing beverage that complements very well with the cuisine you're enjoying in Blue Jasmine. Most of the food in Blue Jasmine isn't overly sweetened like many Indonesian food/American food, so there's no need to overcompensate on the sweetness of their coconut lime mojito.

*Dessert*
Once again, this dessert is sweet to a reasonable extent. What's unique about this typical Indonesian dessert? They actually don't use your cheap cocopandan syrup, but instead use a homemade cocopandan gelato! You get a slightly creamier consistency and a less artificial taste compared to the syrup version. 

*Overall verdict*
There are plenty of expensive restaurants in Jakarta. Some are expensive due to its ambience. Some are expensive due to the cuisine type (eg. European, Japanese, Korean). Some are expensive due to the ingredients (seafood,wagyu beef). However, Blue Jasmine clearly has paid attention to all aspects that create a great restaurant (ambience,flavor,quality of ingredients, service, price). A undeniably pleasant and satisfactory experience.
