The explosion of flavors are a real kick, and so far this court always makes me speechless.

It's amazing how people love locally to increase this silvery fish to many culinary fares. Not to mention a great traditional fish market, pasar Bandeng, , which is held specifically to the three last days of Ramadhan on a 3km stretch of road in the market. Local farmers sell tons of fresh, finest fish and auctions throw for greatest. The sound of music and the blare in the background hum cry of the fish odor is not a problem for visitors. People make their way to buy 3 kg milkfish by the masses to the neighbors in the hope of getting better blessing next year.In my house, the loud sound of prayers can be heard from the minaret to share. My father has two 1-meter milkfish in his hands, just arrived the star of our hard tomorrow. Lebaran comes, everyone can not wait to celebrate.
