Travelogue : Padang/Bukittinggi
5:20 PM
Note : Bukittinggi was not a typo *hehehe*
Jam Gadang, Bukittinggi, Indonesia, 2015
Have you ever tasted masakan minang Indonesia? I cannot rave about it enough, they are sooooo goooooooooood. So we went to Padang/Bukittinggi to experience local (authentic Minang/masakan Padang) food
While me being a city girl (Im not rich, not spoilt but I live in the city all my life), Bukittinggi is never gonna be my choice for a great stay. It looks a lot like Cameron Highland (of course, CH is prettier) but less developed. However the food here is to-die-for!
My first Padang food (masakan Padang) experience was in Bali, and my husband told me it originated in Padang.
Lembah Anai, on our way from Padang to Bukittinggi
