1:30 Those aren’t prawn chips but melinjo (Gnetum gnemon) seeds, pounded and deep-fried. Didn’t they taste bitter rather than fishy? We Indonesians love these crackers for the extra flavor and crunch they add. I’m impressed by the variety you found in Sydney-West Sumatran (nasi Padang), North Sumatran (pork belly fried rice), and South Sumatran (pempek). But I’m especially excited about the se’i at 7:47 from East Nusa Tenggara, just about 185 kilometers from Australia’s northern coast, though traditionally it’s made with venison or wild boar meat. Cheers from southern Borneo (where you won’t find our food in Australia)! 🇮🇩 🍻 🇦🇺
Thanks so much for the great info! 🙏 We didn't realise those were melinjo chips - and you’re right, they had more of a bitter flavour than fishy! 😊 It’s amazing how much variety Indonesian cuisine has, even in Sydney. We loved learning about each dish’s origins as we explored. The se’i was especially unique, and we’ll definitely keep an eye out for the traditional venison or wild boar version! Cheers to you in southern Borneo, and thank you for sharing your knowledge with us!
That is so crazy that you mention this! One of our friends also made us aware of the restaurant basically at the same time you mentioned! Thanks for the recommendation!
Oh no! We went in at lunch time and it wasn’t busy and didn’t have food that we hadn’t already tried elsewhere, so we decided to give it a miss. Sounds like we made the wrong call. 😢 A good excuse to go back! - Jon
🤣🤣. It is very much a case of feast or famine! We certainly eat a lot during filming days and still take a lot of food home with us to live off for the best part of the week. - Jon

You should try Medan Ciak Restaurant for Medan style foods in NSW.

Great job, but no Indo Rasa in Kingsford? Gee, I think they're the best. Next time.
