I've always seen roadside stalls like this all over the places, once evening these will spring out everywhere so far have not tried it until tonight cos I was with my staff



This is very typical place Indonesians go for dinner



So was on the way back from Bandung and decided to stop for dinner at about 8.45pm. There were two row of stalls and decided to have Nasi Uduk and Seafood so ordered from two stalls.

This is nasi uduk the equivalent of our nasi lemak


The three dishes ordered from nasi uduk stall, ayam goreng (sambal was really great)


Cat fish or ikan lele goreng


Tahu and tempe goreng


The following 3 dishes from seafood stall, kangkong


Ikan bakar


This is like our lala but they deep fried it first then saute, taste great too

All new table will be served a tray of food, pay what you eat

It is a nice concept to see a tray of food on the table and pay what you eat. What are they going to do with the uneaten food? Reuse the uneaten food on a new tray for the next new table?

my saliva droplets can reach all 4 corners of a dining table when i speak. this tray will definitely capture multiple droplets of my dna.

When traveling in Jakarta and longing for Cantonese food can try their Duck King. It's like our Crystal Jade. Most major malls will have one. As the name suggest their roast duck is great. Always crispy on the skin and moist the meat. Comes in Singapore prices so don't be surprise.

Simple meal, wonton noodle, it's very nice


and a quarter duck


about $20
