Delicious Ingredients of Gado-gado Bu Yur |
All food and drinks must be to takeaway during Ramadan in Aceh. There are no restaurants open before noon. So, takeaway is the only choice in Aceh or you have to wait until evening to eat at a restaurant.
Alright, this is the moment that suits the theme and the right time. I think, foods that contain vegetables like salads are good for health. So, Indonesian salad or gado-gado is a suitable food.
My choice fell to Pecal Buk Yur. Pecal is a food like gado-gado. There is a food ride that is also almost the same, called karedok. The difference is in the seasoning and how to cook it.
Gado-gado contains fresh vegetables such as cabbage, cabbage, tomato chunks, and cucumbers. Inside are also cooked bean sprouts, eggs and potatoes.
Gado-gado can be found in any city in Indonesia, with almost the same taste because it uses the same type of vegetables. Perhaps the difference is the level of freshness of vegetables and nut seasonings only.
For the most Indonesian, gado-gado is pretty much our national salad, and apparently, since 2018, gado-gado has been designated as one of Indonesian five national food.
I have bought Buk Yur's gado-gado beforehand to take home. Never eat there. So, this is the second time I bought a Buk Yur gado-gado because by chance I was crossing Jalan Medan - Banda Aceh.
There are already many people lining up there. I was lucky because it was a little faster. Two people who came after me had to go back because there was no food left. No gado-gado, no pecal, nothing!
I often eat gado-gado all this time. I think, what distinguishes Buk Yur gado-gado is the choice of vegetables that are really fresh and seasoning from beans that are number one quality. The water mixture in the peanut sauce is also right, because if too much water becomes runny and if it is a little water it will thicken.
The right dose, that's the key. No wonder so many people lined up in front of Buk Yur. Don't think this is a five star restaurant. Buk Yur is a very simple restaurant on a side street at an affordable price even for midfielders!
But don’t make mistake. The taste of food is not inferior to a five star restaurant.
Like gado-gado in other cities in Indonesia to take home, you will get food in a banana leaf package. It doesn't look too fancy compared to food in contacts or other containers. But this is typical of Indonesia, wrapped in banana leaves, you will not find it in restaurants in the United States or in Europe.[]

Been awhile I ate in this leaf. Coronavirus is disrupting life everywhere.
Eating on a banana leaf does give a different sensation. In Indonesia we still do it for take-away food. Thank so much @fredkese.
Thank you too
