Hi, I am Arveno and i am from Surabaya city Indonesia. I want to make content about my country Indonesia. I believe there is many different and similarities with other countries about my country. But, i am pretty sure there is many things that only happening in my country not in another country. And i do believe that in this content the food is only found in my country especially mainly in my province or island called Java Island. As you know that Indoesia have so much island and each island have different style of food. In this content i will share about food from my province that i lived and known well.
As people know food can really makes the place be remembered right?
You can making pretty good memories towards food. And i believe what i pick for 5 best food from Java Islands can make you guys drooling so much. So, if you want to visiting Java Island you can save this pict and name and you can search to taste it. But, i warn you guys. This food is really really delicious. It will make you addicted sometimes.
1 . Bakso Malang (Malang Meatball)
Basically this is just casual meatball but it served very differently with west country meatball. In my city it served with combination of some of delicate meatball we called it Pentol then Rough meatball also fried meatball then noodle. Then we poured the broth into this meatball to make the taste even better. Don't forget to add some leek and fried onions to make the aroma better. If you like spicy you can adding Sambal that consisting of chilli, soysauce,and some spice.
or if you want to eat separately you can just pick what you want and eat it. This food can make your stomach full with just one bowl.
2. Rawon
I think this food can only be found in East Java since this food founded in East Java and the city called Ponorogo. This city is kinda near from my city that i lived right now. Maybe just around 3-4 hours using train. But, mostly the surrounding city already sell this food and using this food to home food. I am getting used eating this food since i was a kid. I am pretty love when my mom cook this food. I loved the tender meat combined with Kluwek broth. Yeah the tastes of the Kluwek is make the tastes very different with just ready to eat spices that sold in Supermarket. Since Kluwek is seed from Picung fruit that very rare to ripe and grow especially nowdays. Then many people just using powder from sachet spices combined with water and some spices. So, yeah the touch of the real taste food is kinda missing over time. But, if you are going to traditional restaurant. I think they are still served the natural tastes of Rawon that still using Kluwek as based of the broth.
if you are in traditional restaurant, i warn you dont forget to eat the saleted egg and the been sprout and some of the cucumber. This combination is really reallly delicious. Especially with rice and tender beef. You really need to try this food guys.
3. Pecel
This is the one of many food that very healthy in my country called Pecel. Each city have different served style. But, mostly they have similar puree. We called it with peanuts sauce. The condiment inside have slight different each city. In my city,mostly using Tofu and Tempe as the main condiment. Then adding rice as carbo. Then adding some fresh vegetables too. The last adding chips combined with peanuts too called Peyek. This food is really delicious and fresh. Usually we eat this food in the morning to boosting our mood and stamina. With so many vegetables it will adding out stamina.
4. Soto
Okay the next is called Soto. This food is like chicken soup but with many spices and very flavour. Mostly in my city this food added with chicken meat that cutting very thin then combined with rice inside the broth. And what makes this food really tasty when adding egg in this food and crunchy cracker called Kerupuk. This food have 2 different filling that is Chicken Soto or Beef Soto. But, thats very rare to find stall that selling Beef Soto. Since the Beef price in my country is very high that will make very low demand of this food. But, chicken Soto is very famous in East Java especially. You can try in different stall. That will be having different taste too. But overall the tastes of Soto is really delicious.
5. Sate / Satay
The last that i recommended that is called Sate. There are many different kind of the sate. Mostly is Chicken Sate/satay. But, i suggesting to try goat satay. The tastes is very delicious with combination of the tender meat with peanuts sauce. It will combined the salty meat with spicy and sweet tastes. The combination will melt in the tounge. Really. But, i warning you guys dont eat this food to much. Since this food is burned so, it having carsinogenic food. But, i think it will be okay if you just try eating this food once or twice a month. Or occasionally food when having some big events or celebrating events. This food is pretty good when combined with rice or rice cake. And the best time to enjoy this food is at night after done with work.
So, that is the 5 food that really delicious. At least for me. I don't know in your country what Indonesian food that famous in your country. Maybe called Indomie right? So, thank you for reading my content this time. Maybe next time i will write about instant food that very famous in my country. And one of them is very famous in the worlds. All picture i pick from google. So, see you next content. Thank you and enjoy.

Bali is the 3rd pretties island in Indonesia, you should go to Lombok and Papua.
But Bali is the most family friendly island so far.
