What the creator captured
Abroad and Hungry explored the culinary capital of Surabaya, starting with a legendary spicy seafood breakfast prepared by Ibu Karmini since 1984. Max was particularly fascinated by the complex preparation of Rujak Cingur, a traditional salad featuring cow nose and a rich, multi-layered shrimp paste sauce. He considered the experience a 'breakfast of champions' and was impressed by the deep history of the fifth-generation family vendors.
