Makassar is also known by it’s traditional cuisine, which are inherited from local ancestors (at least that what most of citizen admitted). You can easily find these food around the city. Makassar Citizen said that If you come to Makassar it isn’t complete if you not taste these food, because it’s also a part of Makassar itself. It’s also a part of the culture. So here are some of them:
COTO MAKASSAR (Meat Soup)
This unique cuisine made from meat (cow or horse) curry and mixed with red and white onion, is very delicious cuisine and most of people who come to makassar would taste this traditional food. Honestly, this is not a healthy food after all, but anyway for the sake of taste! I’m really recommend you to try this food, cause you might not have any chance to get this kind of taste in other places but makassar.
Sop Konro (Ribs Soup)
This traditional cuisine made of ribs (ox or bull), and it’s boiled (sometimes it’s roasted) together with the recipes which are consist of white onion, red onion, coconut fibre, vegetables oil. It’s presented with rice and Traditional sauces made of chili. It’s also tasteful cuisine you might not forget (if you ever try offcourse!)
Pisang Epe (Roasted Banana) Traditional cuisine that made of young banana which is roasted and pressed. After that it’s poured with melted brown sugar (sometimes mixed with durian aor jackfruit). When It’s still “fresh from the oven”, it’s quite aromatic that’s why I’m also recommend you this food.
Besides all of that, there are still plenty variety of food you should try if you have a chance to visit Makassar...but i'm afraid i'm going to make my self starve here just write them all, any way I love traditional food (altough it's not 100% healthy) but it's deserve to try.....
