Was not looking for anything particular but got info this street vendor is good from local parking attendant, so we tried it and it's good. The variety of condiments is something I never realize how rich this traditional meal has been. Also worth mentioning, this is a balance diet because you'll get veggies, protein and carbs in a humble banana leaf "pincuk" for very affordable price.
