Kacang Lurik / Kacang Batik — a local Indonesian peanut with beautiful stripes, resembling the patterns of traditional batik textiles.
Richer in flavor than regular peanuts, thanks to its higher oil content.

Artemis Forest — DIY Body Oil
On warm skin, it rises like a quiet forest draft: clear and grounding.

Deeply Indonesian — salty, sweet, and unapologetically oily.
Not my style at all.
But Indonesian cappuccino? I actually like it. Less foam, more coffee aroma.

Soto Iga Bakar Betawi
— my favourite Indonesian dish.
Grilled beef rib served in a coconut-milk broth layered with Southeast Asian spices.
It usually comes with emping melinjo — slightly bitter, light, and perfect on the side.

A sudden thunderstorm, luckily, Sop Buntut (Indonesian oxtail soup) kept me company.

Matoa (Pometia pinnata) — a local Indonesian fruit.
It’s extremely seasonal, only appearing for a few days each year.
The taste is like a mix of lychee and jackfruit.
You can occasionally find it in East Malaysia too.
