Cooking, Food, and Recipe ... and other stuff too

I took my bachelor degree in Yogyakarta. At first I don't rate
Yogya highly, since it seems
it much more quite than my Hometown, but after a while I fell in love
with Yogyakarta. Yogyakarta has rich cultere and yet they so friendly with
outsider esp a poor college boy like me. I spent many time enjoying my
afternoon in my university boulevard and drinking a cup of wedang ronde.

Well it remain me to talk about another javanese tradiotional
drink, it's wedang ronde. Wedang ronde is drink with ginger
water (almost the same with sekoteng) plus brown sugar and has a balls
of rice flour in it,plus other stuff like bread, peanut
