A day @ Medan

Last saturday, the first thing pop in my head after we arrived at Medan, North Sumatra is where are we going to have lunch. I insisted my Mom to take me to "Bakmie Kumango". So We headed there, and I ordered my usual plate of "Chicken Noodle" while my Mom ordered "Chicken Hainamnese Rice". The noodle is not as delicious as I remembered, maybe because of my high expetation. but It still the best noodle I have ever taste. Bon Apetit :)

After lunch we headed to "Pasar Ramai". Its a popular traditional market in Medan, Lots of foods (off course :)) and other goods hehehehe. After we circling the market for about 1 hour, I felt thirsty. So we stopped at some food stall and ordered Es Sekoteng, Es Cendol and He Ci (fried prawn, tofu, kangkung served with sour and sweet sauce). mmm... quite good. Actually there is still alot of food available there, such as e-mie, wonton noodle, nasi campur etc, but since I just had lunch I can't ordered them all hehehehe...
That night on my way back home to my hometown "Kisaran" (about 3-4 hours from Medan), We stopped at "RM 100", located at Jalan raya Medan Kisaran km 100. This is quite a popular restaurant according to my mom, they served alot variety of seafood for us to choose. So We ordered "Grilled Bawal Fish", "Grilled Pare Fish", Udang Tauco (stir fried prawn with fermented soybean sauce), and "Cah Kangkung". mmm not bad... Selamat Makan :)

dulu pas gw kecil, di daerah mangga besar deket gang mesjid, ada bakmi ayam enak banget, yg punya orang medan, dan nama tempat itu Bakmi Kumango..trus beberapa tahun setelahnya, mereka tutup dan ga tahu pindah ke mana..I wonder they moved back to Medan since the noodle in the photo, exactly looks the same just like the one that I had long long time ago..hmm..
