Medan : The food

I apologised for publishing food photos in the month of Ramadhan.

These are the food I had during my short stay in Medan.

My lunch. Nasi ayam penyet dengan cabe ijo with hot lemon juice. 

My dinner. Nasi ayam penyet *again* with mango juice. Takeaway.

The next day, me and my friend, Lim had our lunch together.

I had bakso with soursop juice.

Lim had soto with avocado juice.

I bought these. Anyone wanted to taste Luwak Coffee, let me know. I am giving them away for free since I bought plenty. I think I have another two packets left.

Medan : Signages

One of my favourite things to do abroad. Taking photo of signages.

Medan : The Meeting

I had mentioned in a few entries about my trip to Medan, Indonesia. I was attending an Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Workshop on Attaining Bogor Goals, one of the workshops/meeting in conjunction with the Third APEC Senior Officials' Meeting or SOM III.

They were a lot of banners and buntings all over Medan, promoting APEC's SOM III.

Look for this trishaw and you can get a free ride around Medan city. They turned their ordinary rides into official becak using only buntings.

Medan : Nasi Goreng Gila

At first, I thought it was just a gimmick.

But it turned out that this food is actually exist all over Indonesia. They topped the fried rice with a huge portion of stir-fry vegetable and beef / chicken /  fish, hence the word "gila".

Nasi Goreng = Fried Rice
Gila = Madness / Crazy

Rp11,000 = approx. RM3.50 / USD1.15
