When the food is originated from land of spices, you can actually expect the explosion of flavour there..
For those who haven't tried Indo food before, be careful with their chilli, when the seller say it's spicy it means 10 times spicier than you expected, lol..
They dont play around with spices..

Agree! It's not like local-standard spiciness but closer to Thai-level of spiciness 👍 I am not talking about Indonesian fusion food but the authentic taste 😃
@@IslandGal96816 more than thai
@@ithaindigo really? I thought Thai standard is more spicy than Indo, or perhaps my tastebud is screwed by living abroad for quite some times now 😆
@@IslandGal96816 I've lived a few weeks in Thailand and tasted a lot of spicy food there. in Indonesia the spicy taste is like savory and addictive, but your sweat will be very much. While the spicy Thais I've tried stings my nose and the spices mix kinda different
I can acknowledge that her lontong sayur was truly authentic. 100% similar to what you will eat in Medan City.
I can see that. She cooks like in indonesia. So much bumbu. Gak pelit bumbu
@@ithaindigo *seasoning
Ya kan omg , i love ai situ chen
As an Indonesian i can tell you from the video that her dish looks 100% legit, the color of the broth, the apparent texture, portion, and everything else looks like how it's made here
I can even smell and taste those foods in my mouth.
Can smell it through the screen 🤤
My wife is indonesian and the food from her country is amazing…I hope everyone would try this woman’s food I bet you’ll fall in love ❤
Selamat Siang!! I’m American living in Bali now and bless your grandma!! I love Lontong Sayur and everything I see!! I’ve been here for a year. Next time I’m back home in LA (not soon..ha ha), I will stop by for Medan Makan!! Sampai Jumpa 🙏🏽
enjoy your time in Indonesia ❤️
SHE CHINESSE NOT INDONESIAN LOL
@@drakota2808 THIS GRANDMA IS A INDONESIAN , BEFORE SHE LIVE IN LA , SHE WAS IN MEDAN CITY AT NORTH SUMATERA PROVINCE ..AND THIS GRANDMA IS CHINESE ETNICITY
@@drakota2808 stupid comment
@@drakota2808 indonesia is made up of many ethnic races, including chinese indonesians.
Cool, I didn't know anything about Indonesian food before seeing this so that's pretty rad! Everything looks really appealing.
It's one of the most underrated food..
My advice dont try if the seller say it's spicy, cause they dont play around with spices, lol..
@@lenziany Yeah if you can take spicyness its ok but sometimes there are extremely spicy dishes like Ayam Rica Rica. If you cant take spice. It will burn your mouth.
Where have you been 😁
of course you've heard that fried rice comes from Indonesia and one more thing is Tempe, that food if you eat it often you will turn away from any meat
Mantap masakkannya Tante Medan,doa semoga tambah sukses bisnisnya dan sehat slalu sklrg
As an Indonesian, just by the looks of it, I can tell it Is delicious! My mouth watering watching this video!
I actually buy a nasi padang because of this video.
If only we got more authentic Indonesian restaurants abroad. I have a dream that someday Nasi Bungkus will be as popular in the world as Japanese Bento or Korean Bibimbap (they are basically the same concept, rice + side dishes put together).
Holy crap dude. I live in holland, and holland occupied indonesia for centuries. One would say the most complete and authentic indonesian food outside indonesia itself should be holland, but seing the menu there...it blows my mind. You got more dishes than one could ever find in the netherlands. The choice there put the choice here in shame.
perhaps not many Medanese chefs migrated to holland :-)
you need to change that :-D
@@raimitodd Yeah its mostly Javanese people here. But also a lot of chinese chefs come here to cook since there are many Chinese-Indonesian restaurants (though in fast decline)
@@noahmeijers8748 medanese food is like indonesian food on steroid, tastier, bolder . Just crazy
@@ksam8987 crazy 😂😂😂
Coba anda ke restoran Sampoerna di Amsterdam.
The food looks authentic and delicious. I also appreciate that the host gives really accurate information, even he ate with his hands like how Indonesians do.
Even as an Indonesian myself I've never seen the combination of nasi kuning ( yellow rice ) + rendang + crispy potato, looks delicious.
Di Amerika harga makanan murah sih (dibandingkan dengan upah minimum mereka), jadi kalau bukan porsinya yang overkill ya campur-campurannya yang begitu...kalau disini (di Jakarta) ada sih yang menyajikan nasi kuning +ayam+ telor+ kentang Mustofa+sapi (tapi bukan rendang, bisa request mungkin)
Kateringnya Ny.Hendrawan
Biasanya kalau di daerah sumatera utara, apalagi yang masak orang chinese, biasanya nasi kuningnya dipadukan dengan ayam rendang, telor, sayur seperti kaya di video.. doyan banget kalau udah makan ini.. ditambah kerupuk .. beuh mantep
In Medan that's how we eat nasi kuning often times hahahaha
In Papua, especially jayapura, nasi kuning and rendang + crispy potato is common here
Klo makanan Medan tiada duanya rasanya manyussss,klo udh biasa makanan di Medan pasti makanan di TPT lain lain udh beda
Wowwwww chef Siu Chen is an absolutely legend for this, everything looks great!
Indonesian cuisine is known for its rich, bold flavors and unique blend of spices and herbs. The country's diverse culture and geography have contributed to the development of a wide variety of delicious and distinctive dishes. From fiery curries and soups to sweet desserts and snacks, Indonesian cuisine has something to offer everyone. One of the standout features of Indonesian cuisine is its use of spices and herbs. The country's tropical climate has allowed for the cultivation of an extensive range of spices and herbs used to flavor many dishes.
We stop by to grab a bunch of food each time we are in LA! It’s challenging to come across a real deal Indonesian restaurant in the States. This spot is truly a gem. My partner and his family are from Indonesia and we love this place! We also just travelled to Indonesia and can say that the dishes at this restaurant can satisfy the authentic tastes we miss dearly.
Everyone who lives nearby should really try medan food, its one of the best food in Indonesia specially chinese Indonesian, we love it so much, then u know why Indonesia food is the best food, it will make u come again n again. Full of flavour but complete each others
Where is it located? I tried to google map the address and there are several places with the same name.
In Medan noddle soup is very popular and delicious. Every region has its own food specials like Sundanese food is totally different and very famous. Raw vegetables dipped in Sambal Terassi is not everybodies taste but people from Jakarta love it. My favourite was Soto Batawi or Soto Bandung, Nasi Padang, Sate Kambing, Ayam or Cumi Rica2 and many other dishes l had in the 22 years living in Indonesia.... I miss the food sometimes but l am also cooking many dishes at home at an retire.
haha mi sop!🤣 im bataknese and i really love that food so much! in jakarta we have some medan/bataknese restaurants too. do you like it?
If you're food lovers, I think you're gonna love these foods. I can guarantee, that's the real deal for food lovers. Bcs they're abt to blow your taste buds and eyes. The spices, the chilis, the colors is just *chef kiss
Love how you just dug in the Nasi Bungkus and Nasi Padang with your hands, the way it is supposed to be eaten 👍🏻💯
My whole childhood memories in medan is in those food! 🤍✨
Proud to be chinese medanese and Indonesian ! 🙌🏻✨
Wow, I love your wrapping, on bananas leaves. So classic and so earthy. I have to check out your store. Love South East Asian food. 👍🏻
Banana leaf is traditionally used here. It gives super nice fragrance when you steam the food with banana leaf wrapping.
Even in indonesia that medan kitchen food looks very authentic it self. Looks so delicious from what i can get here. Especially that complete nasi kuning
Bener2 nenek ini luar biasa mencintai masakan indonesia...hingga melihat cara beliau memasak...memasak dengan penuh cinta memakai hati....😍
Ya karena dia orang Indonesia
Kelihatan enak semua... Nasi sayur atau lontong medan memang terbaik lah... Sehat selali oma.. 🙏🙏🙏
Makasih Ibu. Ini makanan lehat enak sekali. Saya Orang Bule tetapi mau joba. Suka sambal pedas juga. Musti pergi ke LA.
Our Tionghoa people always mastering of the cooking,,,whatever they cook always the best flavors
This grandma really mastering medan's food. From nasi padang to mie gerobak just wow!!! How many menu she cook in a day?!!!

we need more people to have indonesian restaurant
I am one😂
I'm an Indonesian, living in Indonesia, and these food look really good I'm tempted to fly all the way there just to try some 😂
looks very delicious , cannot get this beautiful indonesian cuisine in Melbourne !
I can guarantee you, that is heaven. Medan food is amazing
Although the name of the resto is Medan Kitchen, but almost various foods from Indonesia were there😅. I knew it will be delicious. Mostly, woman from Medan can cooking delicious food.
Thank you for selling my country's traditional food. Enjoy the food, the herbs the spices :)
I am Malaysian but I visit Indonesia regularly. Seriously Medan is the food heaven of Indonesia. When I visit Medan, nasi padang is my stapple night and day.
From my point of view as an Indonesian, i have tasted all that food. But looking at your video, I want to eat that all again.. Looks very good.. 👍😋
I'm an Indonesian living in the UK who's tired of my own cooking and missing Indonesian food like crazy.After watching this vlog, I wanted to fly all the way to the US to try all of the food in Medan Kitchen instead of going back to Indonesia 🤣.
Right, u can also shop for the Indonesian snacks there 😁
@@a.christian6003 Right! And pay exorbitant prices for the snacks🙄. The food prices seem reasonable to me. But as usual, the prices of imported Indonesian products abroad would cost me an arm and a leg! Can't stop calculating the prices in rupiah 😅
jump over the pond to the Netherlands! there’s a lot of options over here (beyond the Dutch-ified rijsttafel), except if you’re looking for ikan lele..
@@katherineandini5962 That's brilliant 💡. I could also see the Amsterdam canals and windmills 😍❤️.
or u could just fly to indonesia..
Well it’s not strange since Medan is the city of culinary, the people from other cities visiting Medan for food and food

Seeing this....my mouth is already watering...... I live in Indonesia...

It' looks really amazing
Her foods are great!
Mantap... Air liur meleleh..
Where is this restaurant. We have a lady on the Gold Coast Qld. Her food is amazing. Im never disappointed.

Wahh si ai jago masak! enak" neh kyknya...🤩
Saya orang Indonesia, lihatnya saja ,liur ini langsung keluar... Looks yummi
Cendol... OMG, that's so delicious drink...
That looks so good omg
The food looks yummy nd tasty..I love all the food that she made it..hope I can try it🥰😘🤩
Benar benar masakan legenda.. Oma kereeeen
Idk why I'm watching this, I live in Indonesia lol
Still, Ai Siu Chen's food looks so good and authentic!
The food seems pretty authentic, except one thing, when you actually buy those in Indonesia and not in fancy restaurant, you get higher rice to "lauk" ratio.
In this video the rice is always less than half of the whole meal, so you get way more flavor, but if you buy it here in Indonesia it will be more like 2/3 rice and 1/3 lauk.
*side dish
Look so good I would love to try I've never had this kind of food
You HAVE TO
Let me know the experience, taste and everything once you're tried those foods!!!
