Hello, friends especially foodies!

Have you ever travelled to Jakarta? Have you tried one of the legendary food here, even already popular in my mom's era, otak-otak and also kelapa muda in A.M Sangaji Street? If you haven't, once you come here you could try to go here too...

Here how it looked like

So modest, and not modern one.

They have no air conditioner here, and also the condition of the dining area was so messed up for me. But when we ate some customers came and also some bought to be taken home. Popular until now!

They even didn't have any menu here, you could only saw and ordered so if you wanted to make sure that your money afford to buy food here you might need to ask. They didn't mention the price anywhere and i have to remind you that the price here weren't not modest like the place so you might need to ask if you only had a low budget to eat.

After we order what we wanted, the food and drink came one by one. First the rujak juhi and otak-otak, then the kelapa muda and iced tea, then last the capcay with rice. Here how our yesterday's lunch looked like

Now i would like to share about the taste of their dish one by one.

First, the rujak juhi

Like usually it contained some vegetables, noodle and juhi on the top with the peanut paste. And i didn't recommend this menu at all, it only had the light savory, sweet and spicy flavour. Not delicious at all!

Second, their authentic otak-otak

Actually otak-otak is a baked fish cake in the banana leaf. It had fish flavour, sweet and savory. It should be eaten
with savory spicy peanut. Here they made the otak-otak from fresh fish. It had delicious and authentic flavour.

Third, the capcay

It contained shrimp, meatballs, fishballs stirred with vegetables. It had savory flavour and had thick soup. It was also delicious. They served it in a quite large portion.

Last, their authentic kelapa muda.

It was young coconut, so the meat of the coconut would be softer and it was so fresh, no added any sugar or ice. So you also must try this menu.

And how much we paid for all?

It was 175,000 IDR or around 12.4 USD.
Not cheap at all, right?

Oh yeah, here they didn't gave any receipt, if mom didn't pay with the debit card we won't get any proof of payment.

Come and try the legends here!
