a journal of food & stillness

The crispy oyster mushroom was my favourite snack when I was in college.

Every time I go back to the place where I was born and raised, I see many things have changed.

Torch Ginger, Kecombrang, Honje, Wild Ginger, Bunga Kantan, Wild Ginger…whatever the name, this exotic flower is another valuable ingredient in Indonesian kitchen.

A new Indonesian restaurant focused on Javanese food just opened in Menteng area.

This has been a long time coming, but I still remember it was a cold and wet day in January.

Last month I joined British food cooking competition that held by British Embassy in Jakarta.

I was so happy when I found an abundant sweet corn in the traditional market this morning.

On the days that I were swamped with a deadline, groceries and struggle with my mood swing problem or just plain lazy and want to make quick easy dinner, I will reach out for a package instant noodles.
