Tasty and delicious Coto Makassar from Sop Konro

Tasty and delicious Coto Makassar
Who do not know coto or soup konro Makasar typical of this. Kuahnya a muddy brown color is enough that there is no enjoyment save tara. Not a soft rib sapinya harmonious chime in with the sensation savory, sour and spicy sauce konro is truly capable of horrible tongue.

If asked the question the culinary terlintas in mind surely coto or soup konronya. Hmm ... a matter of taste not asked, because it delights both the meal certainly horrible tongue. When a bid to get lunch together at the restaurant on the Kelapa Gading, without thinking twice I also direct immediate coast to get there.

Marannu afternoon that the restaurant is in the shop-shop jejeran roadside Bulevard Raya, Kelapa Gading already appear crowded. Whiff of smoke as if never stops from the grill outside the restaurant, facing to the right road. Hissing sound when roasted rib dijilat fire like music when we entered the train restaurant. Hmmm ... harumnya roasted rib indistinct sedapp nose tickle!

Almost every lunch in the restaurant is always crowded. Place bersantapnya separated by a wall with a door in the middle of the room link to the shop disebelahnya. On the table already exists buras sized plateful that are wrapped with banana leaves young, Ketupat the leaf is green and some sambal bowls.

Soon a waitress came about with a book in the menu. In accordance with the signature dish of the restaurant this fall in the order we coto Makassar and konro soup. Coto own to have two options, namely coto meat and coto intervention.

Because the coto flesh out, I was forced to order coto intervention consisting of beef, iso, tripe, spleen, etc.. And not behind seporsi soup konro for a friend. As the assistant, it's not fit, if not es pisang ijo ordering the special glass and smash the suegerr to release opposition.

Coto intervention came not long after in a white bowl with Ketupat plateful. Coto, a soto to Makasar is still kuahnya forth this summer looks cloudy, with a color kecokelatan not over-oil pool. No lag fried onion topping that up above. Indeed invite the taste ...

Before disantap the coto must diracik first. Kucuran lemon, a little salt, and sambal (a yag fried and boiled a) that I add ... hmm make it more fitting. When dihirup slurpp ... warm feeling spread directly esophagus is really delicious! Taste delicious broth, sour orange sensation, and spicy sambal directly create a taste sensation swing tongue.

Coto Fill in the form of slices of meat, offal in the form of hearts, tripe, iso, and spleen as the content of this coto cut small. It's quite soft, so I shall not trouble mengunyahnya time. One again, cleaning various viscera is also worth diacungi thumb. Therefore, I greedily chewing with the contents.

Incomplete coto eat it without buras or Ketupat. For the buras and Ketupat is like a staple food that can not be separated when the eat the meal. Buras is made from rice, such as lontong similar, but the shapes are different because the wrapped banana leaf-shaped flat like a banana cake. Not only are mixed to coto, buras this can also be enjoyed with peanut flavor.

Finally seporsi soup konro who was waiting-awaited arrival, and followed by banana ice ijo. Sop konro consists of two pieces of beef rib-sized big enough. I like kuahnya not so thick, like similar coto ... slightly cloudy with a light spice and not so nonjok. Iga local beef without fat is cut long so that narrowly exceed edge plate. Meat really soft, so when I mengoyaknya spoons and forks with no trouble at all. Although the city originally own soup konro enjoy it more if akan disantap with hands.

I deliberately konro santap soup without Ketupat, that can still be leaving a place for the banana ice ijo. Is the es ijo own banana banana is actually a dibalut rice flour dough with green steamed until cooked ago. This banana-slices, then sliced, given sumbum pulp, red syrup, and ice shavings. Hmm ... it suegerr muted sharpness konro. Es jeruknya was not arouse less, appear yellow orange, orange diperas from Pontianak ... Seger abis!

To enjoy this, we do not need to pay expensive. To seporsi soup konro (containing 2 pieces of rib) was Rp 31,000.00, Coto Makassar Rp 16,000.00, and Rp 11,000 for Es Pisang Ijo. According to the price cheap enough for our lunch that is delicious and filling!
