Visiting Sekaten at Jogjakarta, I’m interested in the traditional Javanese food that are sold. There are so many food stalls at the fair, just like ants encircling a grain of sugar. They are in a row of the street’s edge, try to serve the best food they have. Sound of stoves is familiar to my ear. They just give me a sign that the stalls are very busy serving the buyers and adding the stocks.
Warm the Body with ‘Wedang Ronde’
‘It is rainy season. The temperature is rather cold to night. I need something to warm my body.’ ‘Do you need a jacket or a blanket?’ ‘No I don’t.

Something with alcohol?’ ‘No, I need a drink that make me warm and stay healthy.’ ‘I know exactly what you need, let’s go find wedang Ronde!’
Fried Duck for Lunch or Dinner
Indonesia is rich of tourism places and delicious food. The place and food is a unity, as every place offer its own menu. Here, I want to talk about duck meat not in the restaurant but on the street food stall. It is a guide for backpackers to find a place to eat in Yogyakarta.
Some place offer different way in cooking duck such as fried, roasted as setae or curried. A few days ago, I have the opportunity to taste fried duck at two different places: Bebek cak Koting and Bebek Mbah Wongso. Those two-food stalls are specialized in cooking duck that is called ‘bebek’ in Bahasa Indonesia.
