Makassar’s cuisine is unique to the region, unseen in other parts of Indonesia. The place is known for meat stews, and visitors must try the Pallubasa, a stew made from cattle offals. Vendors by the street also sell a variety of seafood, including fish soup and otak otak or fish cake wrapped in banana leaf. Rice-based puttu cakes are common by the roadside, as well as the sweet dish of es pisang ijo, served with condensed milk, vanilla syrup and tapioca. Read More
