We've been in Jakarta for the last couple days, with not a lot of free time to choose where we eat. But wee we did manage to stop a sate shop that we've been dying to try ever since our last visit, when we noticed that it was packed every single night. The wait was worth it.
No time for a detailed post now- we're on our way to a farm a few hours outside of town, where we'll be enjoying the fresh air and doing a bit of work for the next few days. But in the meantime - until I can finish this post when we're back in KL later in the week - I'm betting that some Jakarta readers can guess where this photo was taken. The place strikes us as one that's been around for a good long time. It's not too far from Plaza Indonesia....
every foodie in Bacolod City, Philippines know and love Sate Babe... smoky pork BBQ smothered with a sweet rich soy+peanut-buttery sauce... and it becomes better if paired w/ java rice (local fried rice tinged with turmeric) & papaya achara....
unfortunately no one in cosmopolitan Manila knows about the delights of Sate Babe...
