Time to eat

At least once a day I will eat at at a hybrid warung/restaurant.  These places offer traditional Indonesian food, with lots of great juices as well.  My meal usually costs me about 2 dollars.

At many places to eat you look at the menu and write down what you want.  Once you are finished you make eye contact with the person working there and they will come over and pick it up.  If they say "habis" it means they are out of it.

Sate Ayam at Pondok Cabe is great!

Sambal is a spicy concoction (think of it as salsa) that many people enjoy in Indo.  There are many different varieties.

Out and about in Jogja

Walking to my motor after enjoying a nice dinner, I saw a street vendor was walking down the street selling corn, peanuts and beans. I couldn't resist the interesting look of these steaming goodies. I quickly got out my camera and snapped some shots.

Warung

A warung is a place many people here in Indonesia go to get a quick bite to eat.  They have limited items to choose from and sometimes don't have menus.  They appear to be make shift places to eat that can easily be set up and taken down relatively quickly.  These photos are from a warung near my place in Yogyakarta.  I enjoy nasi goreng with an egg and ice jeruk to drink!

Sangam House Article

Last week Melissa wrote another article for The Jakarta Post newspaper.  This article was a feature on one of our favorite restaurants in Yogyakarta, the Sangam House.  I was never a huge fan of Indian food.....now I am!  I shot photographs for the article during the day and at night.  Melissa and I are finding that we make a good time for writing and publishing articles.  I can do the graphics while she can write.  The first photo is a collage I created from photographs take at night and during the day.
