Sidewalk food



In Yogyakarta at night the street vendors put out mats in front of the closed shops and the locals take their shoes off, sit down, and dine!



This is the local specialty of Yogyakarta, one of the ingredients is Jackfruit.



Here it is in the pot, the Jackfruit is the gray stuff on the far right.
