Hello, friends especially foodies!
Recently on Friday, I went with my aunty and her spouse to a legendary gudeg restaurant which was located on Central Jakarta. Its name Adem Ayem, and if it is translated to English itu would be inner peace (my translation). It is located on AM Sangaji street.
You needed to check the temperature before you could enter and they had a large opened air conditioner dining area inside.
This place had gudeg, authentic Central Javanese food as their speciality, and this came from Yogyakarta. But they also had some other Indonesian menus as well. Talk about gudeg you must try it cause it had a bit difference per area in Central Java, in taste and also look.
That day, three of us ordered the same menu, the complete gudeg rice. It means we got it all, we got the pindang boiled egg, the jackfruit that cooked into gudeg (top right), unboned chicken (ayam suwir) and also krecek (cow’s skin).
If you come there don’t forget to take the special chilli paste which brought spicy sweet flavour to it.
The flavour of them one by one:
Pindang boiled egg – light sweet
Gudeg – sweet
Ayam suwir – savory
Krecek – spicy and savory
So it had a complete flavour on each plate.
Wanna try Gudeg too?
