Fruit of the day

May I present to you:The Mighty Salak

The skin is almost like a snakeskin. After peeling it, there is three segments, a little bit like in a garlic. The aroma isn't very strong and the taste is quite mild. Remarkably acidic and resembles an apple. Especially the texture. Something worth mentioning was the really strong tannic mouthfeel while eating the fruit. A nice fruit, a bit too acidic to my taste but the ones in Bali are apparently sweeter and more costly. Have to check it out if I come across some.

Street food

I have also had some other rather nice taste experiences, most of which coming from small food stalls. Above is pictured a dish that I would call potatoes, grilled meat and sauce on a banana leaf. Really good and cheap. The meat tasted like chicken but the consistency was a bit hard and not as flaky. Ignorance is bliss I guess. At least it was delicious and that's what matters. :)

Aika herkun näköistä ruokaa, eivätkä maisematkaan blogissasi näytä yhtään hassummilta.
