Bukit Tinggi Market

Bukittinggi market, in West Sumatra, is a traditional meeting place for the locals, which is why the city has been called a "market town" for centuries. The market is called Pass Bawa, and has a good selection of ready meals ,if you can't cook in your hotel. Indonesia's most typical dish, is the Nasi Goreng which is usually a fried rice with an egg on top, but every time I ordered it, I got something different, sometimes the egg was mixed with rice, sometimes there was some chicken, and always chopped vegetables, and a sweet touch. Whatever way it is served it is always delicious. The market has many dried fish, with a very particular smell.
