Gudeg is a traditional food from Central Java and Yogyakarta, Indonesia which is made from young Nangka (jack fruit) among other things, boiled for several hours with palm sugar and some spices, thus it tastes sweet. It is also called Green Jack Fruit Sweet Stew.
Gudeg sold by women along Malioboro Street at midnite till dawn. Here, gudeg serve in a 'warung lesehan'. 'Warung' means mini traditional restaurant, and 'lesehan' is a term to say people sitting without any chair; sitting on the ground or floor covered by 'tikar' (tatami in Japanese).
The most popular place known as gudeg center is Kampung Wijilan. Along the Street Wijilan we could see many 'warung' with big letters "GUDEG WIJILAN ASLI JOGJA". What about its taste? Well, Jogjanese food well known with its little bit sweet taste. So, if have a problem with diabetes, just try it very little bit. Mangez un peutit peu... Bon appetit!
