Voice Your Choice! Ramadan Snacks


During Ramadan Jl. Gajah Mada and Jl. Nasional are lined with vendors selling traditional cakes and iced fruit drinks. Lily (CRS) has several suggestions for those who haven’t tried these break fast treats yet, including: risoles (similar to a spring roll), es buah (flavored ice drink with coconut milk), and tahu goreng isi (fried tofu with vegetables inside). But Lily’s favorite is dadar gulung (a green treat made with brown sugar and coconut).

With over a dozen options, it may be hard to choose, but for only Rp 500 a piece (juices are between Rp 3—4,000), why try just one? Check out the vendors across from the hospital (late afternoon/early evening) for the best selection.
