Hello guys....
How are you all? I hope you are all well because I am too. Meet me again, I will tell you my story about my journey to find and visit good cafes and restaurants with delicious food and drinks.
This time, my friends and I visited a very famous restaurant. It's a stall that sells ice and sate. That's the name of the stall, Es Campur Kalimantan.
Although it's called Kalimantan, this shop isn't actually in Kalimantan. It's actually in Binjai, North Sumatra. I don't know why they use the name Kalimantan, but this shop has been around for quite some time and is very well-known. This shop is usually very busy, and if you come later in the day, the ice is already sold out.
A very simple place, without any decoration. But very comfortable, feels like being in a warm old shop.
This shop only sells Es Campur (mixed ice cream), Es Cendol and Sate Padang. Only three dishes, but they attract many people.
Es campur is a typical Indonesian drink, made by mixing various types of ingredients in sweet syrup. Es cendol is a traditional Indonesian drink made from green, chewy rice flour granules, served with sweet palm sugar syrup and savory coconut milk sauce.
And this time we decided to order Es Cendol and Sate Padang.
The Es Cendol is very delicious, sweet and savory, very delicious. This ice contains not only cendol, but also added fermented cassava, grass jelly, and I don't know what it's called but it tastes like oats. Using coconut milk makes this drink taste savory, and brown sugar makes this drink sweet. With the addition of lots of ice cubes, this drink is very refreshing and very suitable to drink on a very hot day.
Sate Padang is a typical West Sumatran satay dish that uses beef, chicken or tongue doused in a thick, spice-rich sauce.
This is one of my favorite dishes. There are three meat options available, but this time I ordered chicken. The tender chicken, spicy and savory satay sauce, was delicious.
The food and drinks are simple yet delicious. It makes me want to come back to this shop again, especially with the very cheap prices, it's really worth trying. But unfortunately, it's quite far from my house, so I can't come here often.
Thank you for reading my story this time, see you in my other stories, bye~
