About me
I love to travel and I love to taste different foods. I have traveled to many many countries. I prefer to eat the local food than the hotel food as it also gives me the opportunity to learn about them through their foods. I also love to cook and discover different flavours as I cook. I am not a chef nor do I work in the food industry at the moment but I have run my own eatery at one stage of my life and it was very successful but I had two infant children back then and my time was taken away from them so I decided that they were more important and stayed at home with them. I have also been an assistant to a chef in guest house, she taught me many ways with food and I treasured my time with her.

Hi Genevainn
Thank you for the explanation. I enjoyed my visit to Jogja and I met some wonderful local people. I particularly liked the two men who drove us around on their cycles.
If you know how to make Bakso I would appreciate a step by step recipe. I would love to try the real thing. I always try to eat what the locals eat and I enjoy their company. It doesn't matter much to me how they cook it I have never been sick from street food. Your food taste are very much like mine...you have good taste.

What you eat in the street vendor mostly they used just a flour, some do have meat in it but very tiny maybe just a tip of your finger, however they use beefstock in the process to give the taste of beef in it. Just the taste but not the real beef, they try to cutting budget. Since people there are not interested to pay more for it. You right, it will be best with real beef. If you go to the good restaurants that serve BAKSO SAPI (BEEF MEATBALL) they have the real stuff. It's awesome. BAKMI GM is a chain restaurant in Jakarta that also serve this kind of dishes, my favourite place to go when I am in Jakarta. They serve alot of rice and noodle dishes including Bakso in it. I would add hot chilli sauce and drown in the heat of paradise... yummy!!! Glad you've been visiting my country, thank you. Hope you like it. Let me know if I can help you provide some infos related with Indonesian stuff from my own perspective.

Thank you so much for making the time to message me...I will make the Bakso...the meat ball in the Bakso I ate in Jogja was white...it didn't taste like beef to me...I wonder what it was. I think it would taste even better with beef though.
