Makassar is a city known as one of Indonesia's many great culinary cities
lucky for me I don't have to travel too far to try
there's a spot close by where
I can try Makassar culinary and I'm excited to check it out
hi guys it's Marissa Iskandar and today I'm going to be trying two dishes
from Makassar from South Sulawesi and the first dish I'm going to be
trying is Konro
you see that ahh that looks good and I also asked the waiter what
was another popular dish here and he told me that the Coto Makassar
Soto which is almost like a beefstew is really popular so I'm also going
to try this
so let's eat yeah
ooo...they also have Ketupat
so instead of giving you rice they give you Ketupat to eat with your meal
so you just add it in
I don't know how to open it
okay so actually I don't know how to open it
this is really new to me it's my first time trying so I'm just gonna wing it
and try to open it
oh this is like RICE
woa... the texture is a little bit more tough than the rice it's a little hard
to cut
not sure if I'm doing this right guys but I'm gonna try so this is also
like a lontong like rice so the texture is a little bit tougher than the
lontong I'm not sure how this is going to taste
but we'll see once I combined it
with my Konro
hey guys I'm not sure exactly how to eat this but I'm going to
just add a little bit of this inside
I think that's about right
yeah...
now it's time to try
okay guys so it's time to try I'm gonna try COTO MAKASSAR
and this looks really savory and delicious just by looking at it
right here there's chunks of beef sliced up
once you bite into the beef it's a little bit tough it's not very tender
it's a little bit hard to chew but the taste is good
okay so I'm gonna eat this
with the beef
mmmm....
very delicious guys
the texture is still chewy but with this over here it gives it
a little bit nice soft chewy texture in your mouth as you eat it
I think I actually like it combined with this
now to try this soup
mmmm.....
the soup is really flavorful guys really
I can see why this is highly recommended why
people like it
okay so now it's time to try what I came here for
which is Konro
so this is a beef rib and as you can tell it's huge
and I believe it's part of the beef spare ribe
now I don't know actually
where to bite it because there's so much meat guys
gosh...
I've been missing out
this is tender
it's flavorful this nice sauce that you dip it in
it's really good
now biting into it, it tastes almost like a little bit like
home because it's very similar to one of my favorite dishes which is barbecue
back home in Texas and it tastes like barbecue it's very good I cannot believe
that I just found out about this dish I've been missing out guys
so now I'm gonna add the beef into the Konro soup
okay now I want to try this over here
I'm going to add a little bit of this
so I'm going to add a little bit of lime to my broth give it a little extra flavor
okay I'm just gonna stir it
looking at the broth it looks really
delicious already it has a nice color to it there's some green onions to it and then
with all the beef that I added into it it looks really good look at all that
guys
ok, now to try it
WOW....
it is full of spices very strong and spicy
it is full of flavors
this is good
mmmm....
this is extremely wonderful in the palette as I taste it I'm getting a rush of
different flavors
mmm.......
everything so far I've tried is extremely tasty and flavorful guys
the Konro and the Coto Makassar is so good,really yummy and really delicious
okay so as you look in here this one has more of a clear yellow broth as in this
one this is more of a brown broth and earthy color
and I really enjoyed both
of these dishes but if I have to choose one dish it would be konro the
reason why it's just a little bit more flavorful and you can taste all the
spices that they put into it and then when you add the beef ribs into it, it
gives it a really good tasty taste guys
but if you also want to eat it dry
without the soup it's just equally as good so I would actually eat it both ways
either the dry spare beef ribs or combined with the soup it just kind of
depends on what you like or what you're feeling both are really good so
let me just dig back in here guys
ahh....
mmm.....
this is so tender to the bone
it's just tears off easily
this is good
woooh....but its a little spicy guys I wonder why
ooo... no wonder it has spicy sauce mixed in with the sauce that they
made I see a little bit of I think it's red peppers in here
but it's good
I mean you can lick the sauce right off the bone
IT'S JUST AS GOOD...
mmmm....
