7 Must Try Padang Merdeka Menu Of Jajanbeken Version

This is special menu that I have tried, the ayam goreng was crisp with flavorful crumble. Even the chicken crisp but it was easily to pull from the bone. The dish become more special with peanut sambal as condiment.

2. Rendang Sapi (IDR 20K)

Rendang sapi at Padang Merdeka was totally awesome, I love the texture it was tender and easy to cut. The curry sauce was thick and flavorful, when you pairing this menu with steam rice it will be really appetizing.
