If there's time to goint to Medan, do not forget to enjoy the culinary tour. Ethnic mix that is in Medan to make food more colorful. Ethnic Indians, Arabs, Malays, Chinese, Padang, Java, and Batak has created a new flavour.

One of the foods that I miss is the boiled noodles. If in Medan, which means boiled noodles noodles called Tamil style.Why is it called noodle rivet? Because the source of the recipe from Tamil (Indian descent). However, the current sellers of boiled noodles are not limited to the rivet.

What is unique this Tamil noodles? Gravy or sauce made ​​from ground shrimp. The colour resembles the colour of soy sauce is thick. Because corn meal mixed with flour. It was tasty, slightly sweet, salty, spicy. Imagine the pleasures?


How to cook: wet noodles and bean sprouts dipped in boiling water. Once cooked, noodles and bean sprouts were poured onto the plate. Then doused with sauce, plus half a boiled egg. Do not forget the fried onions and slices of leaf soup (celery) sprinkled on top. Ehmmm ...

It was very typical. Spices are a way to make a wide swing tongue. Especially when coupled with minced chillies that are still green. Yummy..

In Kampung Keling that sells Indian. Here he sold along with other traders, and do not wear the nameplate, so I do not recognising the name. Anyway, the position we find the first stall on the left.

The price of boiled noodles was very friendly. Maybe now worth around a plate of fried rice in Jakarta or about 6 thousand rupiahs.

Soto Medan similar to Soto Betawi, but it feels really different. They each have their own distinctiveness in accordance with the taste of eating it. I do not know what distinguishes the flavor I do not understand. Soto betawi usually served with potatoes and tomatoes, while the soup potato field element is represented by a meatball, which is batter-fried potatoes with egg rollers.

The equation, both use coconut milk as the base material so that basically is not good for health. In betawi soto, clove sometimes still looked intact, while the soup terrain, all the spices are ground down so as not to leave the form. For the dish at home, usually soup served with bean sprouts field.

On each table is typically provided soto stall the sweetness of Warangan bananas very fantastic. As an antidote to the poison that comes from coconut milk, banana is a menu that should be eaten. If you want more intense sensation again, then we can order a glass of filtered black coffee again with the filter along the arm. If I do, it is enough to drink sweet tea, or tea tong so that the stomach is not too volatile due urged with extreme menus.
