We're gonna get a ton of street food today.

It is gonna be full on.

Let's go eat.

Ooh, what's this?

Bubur ayam.

Oh.

To start the day off right,

we stumbled into a classic bubur ayam street food stall.

This is a famous Indonesian chicken congee

that's packed with flavor and shredded chicken.

First, it's topped with a delicious combo

of yellow chicken broth and salty and sweet soy sauces.

Then it's covered in crackers, fried (mumbles) crackers,

fried soybeans, and shredded chicken.

It's the ultimate texture combo that you're gonna love.

Oh, yeah, he's just loading the ingredients on here.

Wow.

Yeah, a little, please.

Oh, thank you.

(Trevor speaks in foreign language)

Whoa.

This is the bubur ayam.

We just got the bubur ayam here.

Look at this.

This is like an ultra packed chicken congee here.

Oh, you can see all that shredded chicken.

There's like sliced, fried tofu in there.

There's crispy crackers.

There's peanuts.

There's shallots, fried shallots, cilantro.

Oh, we gotta get to the bottom of this.

Oh, yeah, look at that.

Mmm.

It is like an ultra flavorful chicken congee.

That chicken broth flavor and that fried shallot flavor

mixed with all of the crunchy peanuts,

the tofu, the scallions, the shallots, oh, wow.

That's the secret right there, the chicken broth.

It is so flavorful when he puts that on top of that congee.

Oh, bubur ayam.

Next up, just down the street, we found a colorful display

of tons of different spiced dishes known as nasi rames.

Here, you can get a huge variety of dishes

ranging from seafood like squid and mussels, to chicken feet

and tempe soybean, and even stinky jengkol beans.

Here, you get a real feel

for the varieties of spice in Indonesian cuisine.

This was just a warmup for the insane nasi Padang feast

we had later in the day.

And just walking down the street and seeing these colors,

you can't help but to stop and order.

Oh.

Wow.

What is this?

Nasi?

and spiced seafoods.

Wow.

Okay.

Oh, look at that.

You want this one?

Wow, she's just covering that sauce on there.

And some chicken feet.

Whoa, starting the day off right here.

Oh, that looks so potent.

And just look at all these different dishes

that you can choose from.

I'm just going with two.

They both look really spicy, but there's so much here.

Let's try it out.

Mmm.

(women speak in foreign language)

Oh, wow.

Oh, it's really spicy.

I feel like I should have got

a little more sauce from that huge selection.

We've also got some chicken feet here.

Mmm, now that looks covered in chilies.

All that flavor and so spicy as well.

This one's also a little sweet.

That chicken foot is super sweet.

It's like a sweet chili sauce.

Mixed with the squid, super spicy, on top of that rice,

that's a perfect start to the day.

(Trevor speaks in foreign language)

Mmm.

Next up, we try an amazingly flavorful and powerful

nasi goreng, aka fried rice.

This isn't just any fried rice though.

This is the king of nasi goreng in Jakarta.

As soon as you walk up, you'll know why.

It's stacked up high and flavored strong with lamb,

a ton of curry powders, sweet manis sauce,

and a ton of butter.

When the plate arrives to your table and you take

your first bite, you'll wish you could eat this everyday.

We're gonna get a dish I've been dying to try,

my first nasi goreng street food.

Oh, here it is.

Whoa.

Wow, look at this.

Nasi goreng.

Oh, wow.

This is gonna be a flavorful nasi goreng.
