Indonesia
has the best pancakes
hi my name is Josie and I'm in Jakarta Indonesia's
fast paced, busy beautiful and probably most underrated City seriously I love it
here right behind me is one of the busiest best local Street Markets so I have 150
000 Indonesian rupiah with about 10 US Dollars usually you can get dinner for about two here
but we're gonna see just how much food we can get in one of the busiest markets in Jakarta let's go
okay
this thing's ondel ondel and they're like that and they're really tall and they all are meant
to give you like sort of like a blessing and you're meant to give a donation um for them to
walk past you and that's your blessing so they're really cool they're really tall a person is in the
suit and it's about I know two over two meters tall so it is quite looked at me a large oh
I've got smoking to give you reference the kid just spoke to me from inside the under London
was a little boy oh really yeah his eye level is about to hear on me and he's actually like this
tall because the under London it's almost like two kids inside I think yeah on each other's shoulders
where I am so I'm not 100 sure exactly what I wanted to make up the 150 000 rupiah but I know
that I might look for something like murder back back so maybe like garingan if that's a thing
um and maybe something like I don't know yet I don't know we're having a look but I want
to try gringon first I'm pretty sure and then I might end it with a sweet Mata back
um and have like a big meal in the in the middle depending on what I can find for the price so
let's have a look there's music there's lots of bikes the Street's really busy be careful
walking on it there's people everywhere hold your phones hold your belongings I've had
a lot of warnings to do that so make sure you do that as well what is it what is that
yeah yeah it yeah how much is one how much two thousand two thousand
uh thank you I hope it's geringen I think tell me in the comments below I
don't know if I'm saying that right or not but it's meant to be fried banana
um basically like a deep fried type of banana definitely smells like bananas I think we're on
the right track let me know in the comments below but we got two of them and it was two thousand
yeah 10 cents each this place is the best isn't it all right so we have two bits of fried banana
it's not that warm it's actually um quite cold but let's see what it tastes like you can see all
the like like fried Parts all over the top and you can see where it's been sliced into like an angle
like a 90 degree a sharp right angle of a banana it's quite cold we might have grown the last batch
or maybe it's meant to be cold let me know in the comments below definitely banana definitely
banana definitely it's not really hot and crispy I think it would be better if it was hot and crispy
good yeah
all right so we're just having a seat back here there was all different types of bucks
over there there was like lobster tailor which means egg um something that was kind of rat it
said rat something I don't know what that is so I might have to figure out we might have a
quick Google as to which ones which but we're definitely going to try some baxo now I was on
tiktok live and that's sort of that's literally the main thing that everyone here was telling
me to eat so we're gonna try some now and then I'm really looking for some otak otak I think
it's called which is like a fried fish which apparently is also really common I haven't
seen any on the street yet so let's try The Bachelor and we'll go from there hi hi uh Taylor
hey uh yes egg yeah is that okay how much 25 25 for one
okay so we have the good stuff here he's got a bowl out and he's put some Greenery
in it there's a whole bunch of spices I think there's like uh bean sprouts or
something in there as well a couple of spices on top I think the magic ingredient of Amish
and we have the baxo Taylor which is back so egg just coming after now as
well I think I've got to put it on top of this bowl let's have a look
foreign
thank you
okay so like I said before we've got some noodles we've got some greens we've got
some extra secret herbs and spices and we have the big meatball here that has
the tailor of egg on the inside and then it's surrounded by three now two little
meatballs as well but they are like I think what looks like fried onions on
the top surrounded by really really thin sort of like Singaporean no vermicelli vermicelli from a
noodles here and they're white so tell me in the comments below before I get into it
what's your favorite type of boxo boxo boxo if it's buxo if it's egg teller let me know which
one's your favorite type which one's the one you like all right let's get into there it's
got a really strong flavor I honestly didn't really expect that I kind of almost like the
way that I thought it would be I thought it would be almost tasteless and like the
broth would sort of like have all the spices and The Taste inside of it and the flavors
but the maple actually has it in itself I'm actually I'm quite surprised I don't mind
it it's not my favorite dish in the whole world I really like we had Nasi um Goring on our first day
that's probably my favorite so far but I like this so much more than I thought we're looking for some
otak otak which is like that fish thing I might ask do you know where we can get
okay not on this street yeah oh really
Jeremy Cassie also Sharing The Road Not only with pedestrians but also with trucks cars bikes

of different Vehicles which is cool yeah I am and to survive and look this way and not get run over

thank you hello all right we're just sitting down for some saute chicken
yes we'll just get one come on yes just just same just one uh
thank you thank you I think it's gonna be a little bit spicy so I'm gonna get a
drink in my 150 000 challenge but I'm not sure what team Madness is so I'm
just quickly Googling what it is it just looks like like a lemon tea or something
is so good oh
really good it's not
it's not to order it silly sausages um but this is really good
delicious flavorful peanutty sweet soft chicken really well like Char grilled on
the on the like barbecue I guess I'm so Australian
I know I wanted the otako attack but I asked a few people and they don't know if they have it here
um I know I want to try Mata back so we might go and try and get that
maybe a Savory and a sweet one maybe we'll do that maybe that it's really
cool here it's a really cool Vibe it's all like energetic and Lively
um as you can see and there's a lot of people around which is cool oh what's that
uh
trying to get he's telling us how much
one thousand no ten thousand ten thousand for this one I don't know what it is yeah
okay thank you I'm not sure what it is way too much I think it's okay
is it that's what it's supposed to be cooked in it is like a kind of fish um and it's wrapped in
like a banana leaf type thing so it does look like that but it's our list to hear us wait it's right
I don't know what this is someone someone told me in the comments below we've got a little
okay so we looked it up real quick and it's actually called ketam kitam oh and
it's like a Central Java food so it's like for this kind of region it's actually kind
of like like important like it's actually it's quite traditional and I was just like a bag of
rice it's still sticky rice it tastes good and I'm very actually kind of got a flowery taste this one
what is it
yes sir what is that fish I don't know what it is
the number I think mate it's the size size oh small medium oh super yeah yeah okay okay
chocolate chocolate strawberry blueberry um do you know what any of the other ones are yes
oh yeah yeah yeah yeah oh God okay so I went over here to grab some tissues because I've
got the rice all over my fingers and he was like you want an egg one I was like
yeah okay so we're getting an egg one as well so he's cracking egg over there
foreign things made at once right now we have the sweet one over here which I think
is chocolate and cheese I'm not sure I got like a little bit flustered with the language barrier
not knowing what things are on the menu and over this side we have like an egg one but
it didn't sound like shoot some like soup stew it's obviously the Savory type one I don't know
what kind it is I just said yes to egg so it's got egg in it that's all I know at this point
I think they're about 30 to 35 000 yeah seventy thousand
I don't know if we have an awesome experience in the video here are we done
we're done right now turns out we actually did the challenge too well and we ran out we're actually
just ordered two murder back or murder back and we're actually 5 000 um Indonesian rupiah short
so Michael's just had to go all the way back to the hotel to get some more money um so we're just
gonna wait for him and I'm gonna tell them somehow that he's gonna go get more money and he'll
be back because I didn't count how much we had left and I didn't know that they were both 35 so
thank you so I'm sitting here waiting for Michael to come back um to be honest with you I'm feeling
quite um I don't know overwhelmed um I don't know pressured I'm not sure I've been approached
probably six different times in the five minutes Michael's been gone for money um by different
people and even when I say no they kind of stick around and kind of keep asking it's really
and I've gotten like some kind of sauce as well
no sorry no I've already given money to multiple people on these streets so we have so many people
coming up to you you can't please everyone I don't know I just I feel like if I've said no that's no
and I literally have no money I'm sitting here waiting for my article to come back because we
ran out of money so it's just a lot honestly on this street I'm feeling a little bit overwhelmed
by everything I mean I get it I totally understand but at the same time it's a lot it's a lot to have
we probably had 25 people come up to us tonight so it's it's a lot I'm feeling just like it's alive
no thank you
Okay so we've just walked out of the market we found a little half bench picnic bench to sit
here to eat I just wanted to kind of remove myself from that that street it was quite busy and I had
constant people coming up to me and I just wanted to kind of eat my food again I don't want to bring
the vibe down I don't want to bring the energy down but I feel like I need to be honest with
you I'm not someone who can just happy happy happy nothing goes wrong so that's just me anyway let's
eat this food so we've got the uh the egg one the tallure one and it's like a Savory type of thing
he kind of mixed it looks like a soup like a stew type thing and then he's obviously like fried it
and this one I think is the chocolate and cheese it's got like it's really hot still and it's funny
because Michael took ages to walk back and get money and come back so it's still warm which is
good all right we've got the sauce I've got the chives we've got the eggs the teller in there
it's good to go I've never had a Savory one before
is it like a beef stew that's what I heard it was like a big shoe it's not
I'm confused it's almost like scramble scramble cooked with a pastry with some
spices and it tastes like meat like it does taste like meat but not in a stew kind of
way in just a meat flavor kind of way if that makes sense for you Aussies out there when he
was pouring it it reminded me of like a Heinz chunky shoe oh Heinz chunky behind chunky shoes
oh you're what that's just a cat
I don't know I was more scared by Josie than the cat you have to it's so good it smells
bloody delicious look at the thickness of that no that reminds me of or look at the thickness of
that no that reminds me of oh what throwback this is the Indonesian pancake from the Philippines the
Ube pancake and he said that's an Indonesia he said it's an Indonesian pancake this is it play
the clip so this is interesting to me because he told me it's like an Indonesian style pancake
okay so it's it's that it's true he was like it's an Indonesian style pancake but that's Ube
flavored which is what they have in the Philippines this is the this is the pig
Indonesia has the best pancakes if this is anywhere near as good as the Philippines one
surprise
okay you have to bleep this but that is so much better than the one in the Philippines
this is the this is better by double to any other pancake I've had enough double this is
so juicy and tasty okay so that is it for the 150 000 Indonesian rupiah challenge we went 154
000 which is I thought was four dollars because the numbers still haven't computed in my head
but apparently it's only 20 cents well 20 us cents so we spent ten dollars and 20 cents rather than
ten dollars so not so bad if you ask me make sure you let me know down below what was your
