Pairing Bakso correctly — a note on jamu herbal drink
Most people overlook how much the right drink changes Bakso. I ordered it with jamu herbal drink and the rich and coconut-forward elements of the dish sharpened considerably against the pairing. candlenut in particular became more prominent in a good way.
rendang from West Sumatra is consistently voted one of the world's most delicious dishes. The a Bali warung is where you learn these pairings — they evolved together. If you've been having Bakso with the wrong drink, try it correctly once. It's a genuinely different experience. The restaurant deserves credit for getting this right.
