The warm, delicate jackfruit meat in the gudeg dish combines with unique spices to create a flavor symphony that is difficult to forget. To enjoy this Yogyakarta signature dish, we don't need to go to Java. Nowadays, the gudeg menu has spread throughout Indonesia, including Bali. We can eat gudeg in a stall called angkringan.
