It's been a while since my #StreetFoodAddict post series. This time I'm sharing one of my favorite - thanks to Mbak Sitta - a hidden gem in Ampera, South Jakarta, called Warung Nasi Yogya. Located just right in front of a huge restaurant named..

Read More…Last weekend, Saturday to Sunday 9-10 November 2013 I went to a local event called “Bucolic Weekend”, organized by Javara and Maharasa Indonesia. As the name suggest, it’s basically a pop-up market selling local crops and farm produces that are naturally grown from numerous farmers throughout Indonesia
Read More…As promised, I’m currently on my Central Jakarta series of posts so let’s just get to the chase. The title you’ve just read on top, is one of the reason why I will never, ever, become a vegetarian. Even if I do in the future (small chances, Me. Small chances :p), that’d probably because I suffer from a long-term memory lost or my palate has gone numb – because that’s just how good this stuff is. You know how I usually mark my Featured Post on umifadilah.com with a yellow background? For this post I’d highlighted with red background and a capital 72px font if possible, you know.
Read More…You know how much I love street-food. It’s pretty self-explanatory I guess, they’re quick, cheap, and the last time I wrote an honest review about them I got sent to the World Street Food Congress back in June, LOL (a bonus!).

Read More…I've said it before, Cireng to Indonesian is as addictive as French Fries to Americans, and Tteokbokki to Koreans, lol. Had been living in Bandung for over 4 years during college, it was more than enough for cireng to leave a long-lasting impression to me :p It's cheap, tasty, and you can found them almost everywhere. But ever since I moved back to Jakarta, I tell you, it's quite hard to find cireng stalls on the street. Even if it's available, they're nothing like what I usually had in Bandung. Until one day.....
Read More…I went to Seoul last year, exactly on mid April, without knowing anything about its local food except for what I used to see in Korean dramas: Bulgogi, Bibimbap, Jjajangmyeon and Tteokbokki. So when I actually came there, honestly it was like a total blast; you keep getting surprised of 'accidental food discovery', especially the things we found on the streets late at night. ...
