I only wish there were a guidebook like this for every country where people still know how to eat well.” —Sri Owen, author of Indonesian Regional Cooking “Eat Smart in Indonesia is a must-read offering a wealth of practical information for travelers and armchair travelers alike interested in experiencing Indonesian food. The book is chocked full of solid tips and advice that takes the guesswork out of unfamiliar foods. Never before has a book taken a reader straight into the heart of a country’s cuisine.” —Shannon Roxborough, A Taste of Asia: The Quarterly Newsletter of Eastern Culinary Arts “For a country of 17,000 islands and 670 dialects, and complex traditions, religion and culture, no one—including Indonesians—can claim to know more about Indonesia’s traditional food tastes than the authors of Eat Smart in Indonesia. Their guide is the first ever published with in-depth information about the unique and diverse food of Indonesia.” —William W.
