[Dubious]

@Dubious... mate you put me in such awkward situation I hate you

Yaar I told you the locals like it and promote it well...I am desi so I told my story and maybe my stomach did over react and I also showed you videos of what other foreigners think....

@Dubious Have you ever tried Padang food in Malaysia ?

Tak pernah dengar...Maybe I was ignorant

I have a pretty sensitive stomach so I always travel with charcoal tablets...

Well, I may try..with a lot of rice..
You know I love sushi and I eat a lot which most of Pakistanis don't


I know...just kidding.. I hate you bro it is like love you

Actually it is not a common rice, but a stiky rice, here we call it as ketan. The taste is different with rice, maybe only in Indonesian you will find ketan. It also should be mix with coconut sliced.

I liked
Nasi Katok, Nasi Lemak (typical Malay food) - Rice dishes
Mi goreng, Kueh Teow goreng... - Noodles
Pisang Goreng...

I have a useless stomach courtesy of my grandma and dad....Who prevented exposure to "new" stuff...Hence the stomach reacts like a rebel on anything new

Padang

I think many Chinese and far-eastern cuisines use sticky rice.. the rice for sushi is also sticky..BTW my Indonesian friends have tried Pakistani food. They like Pakistani food especially like Biryani, etc

Glutinous rice...Very common in South East Asia....Like Thai rice, right?

Yes, Biryani is famous in South East Asia...

However, they USED to have the indian style....so when they taste the Pakistani they like it

I think so too.. I have eaten the sticky rice.. a lot of Chinese, Vietnamese and Thai dishes..
May be we all can meet in Malaysia some day and bring our food and we don't eat anything Malaysian ....

How about rendang ? I think Rendang is quite famous word wide. Padang food or Minang Food is all over Indonesia and the center is in West Sumatra. BTW, your Indonesian/Malay language is still quite good

Rendang is number one food according to CNN Traveler

As in field?

Yes, maybe, it can also mean sword (pedang)

I dont know, maybe, but it is not similar with Japanese rice who is also sticky.

Oh I assure you they werent pranking you...You see the Malays have somehow managed to overcome the smell problem and enjoy the taste of the fruit...They claim when you overcome the smell the fruit is actually delicious...though many claim dont drink soft drinks with it coz it will make you feel drunk (some chemicals released by the fruit mixed with soda can give you a drunk feeling...not sure how true since I couldnt eat that fruit from hell)

The Malays are very proud of their fruit and SOME Europeans actually like it....

Locals:

How goray see it:

Science:
They identified a group of genes responsible for odor compounds called volatile sulfur compounds, and found that these genes become highly activated as the fruit ripens, driving its unusual smell.


“The durian smell has been described as a mix of an onion-like sulfury aroma with notes of sweet fruitiness and savory soup-seasoning. A key component of the durian smell are volatile sulfur compounds, or VSCs, which have been characterized as decaying, onion-like, rotten eggs, sulfury and fried shallots,” said geneticist Bin Tean Teh, deputy director of the National Cancer Center Singapore, co-leader of the study published in the journal Nature Genetics.

Unlike other plant species that typically have one or two copies of these genes, this species boasted four copies, demonstrating that VSC production is, as Teh put it, “turbocharged” in durian fruits.

Maaf ya bro...Tapi I tak suka durian

It smells like rotten cheese indeed very rotten and those Europeans who like strong smelly cheeses would like it. My experience was also not good it smells like some animal died in hot humid area and smells like rotten dead body as well.

I like with Pakistani spices. I didn't like the taste of Indian spices..it was a bit different and strong.. I don't the proper words ..it was more like earthy smelling..strange one.. also a bit more on sour / acidic side. I don't like sour things normally except sour cream in some cakes

No, it is not like Japanese rice, very different bro

Okay bro... then I will try when I visit Indonesia.. I have been to Malaysia but for a very short duration so I eat only at the restaurant inside my hotel ..
