The celebrations usually takes place at Kemayoran, and there will be many people selling Kerak Telor there. You can find the great taste of otak-otak in Kota Serang. Bandung, the capital city of West Java, has many unique traditional foods. So, if you would like to try this Betawi traditional food, I would advise you to come to Kemayoran on June or July.

Many believe that Bandung people, usually called as Sundanese, would struggle living in a vegetarial garden because of this lalapan. This food is made from steamed fish wrapped in banana leaves.

Indonesia consists of many islands and many provinces. Gudeg is another traditional food which comes from Yogyakarta. Its unique traditional food is Asinan Bogor. Jakarta, the capital city of the country, or as its original people called as Betawi, has Kerak Telor as its traditional food. Like other Javanese foods, gudeg is rather sweety than salty. Be sure to have them when visiting Kota Serang. Below are some of those foods you should not miss them when you come to that country. This food can not be easy to find nowadays as Jakarta people like to flock to fast food restaurants and other modern foods which are scattered throughout the city. People usually eat gudeg together with warm rice and spicy krecek. In the contrary with Kerak Telor, you can almost find this food anytime you want. Nasi Rawon is traditional food from East Java. The dark color of the soup comes from seeds of kluwek nuts. Batagor, also called as baso tahu goreng, is fried meatball and tofu with peanut sausage. There are many Palembang people in Jakarta or in other town selling this food. Beside otak-otak, Kota Serang is also famous for its Ikan Bandeng.
