Indonesian Food: Southeast Asia's Last Culinary Frontier

Across the entire world, there are less than 1000 Indonesian restaurants. That's fewer than Georgian- a country of 3 million people. And Indonesia has almost 100 times that number; the 4th largest nation on the planet. How is that possible? How has the cuisine of Southeast Asia's most populous country gone unnoticed- and what is it, anyway? There are 17,000 islands in the Indonesian archipelago and summarizing all of it in a single video is impossible; but that doesn't mean there aren't common threads, a shared history, and signature dishes worth attention. And anyway, Indonesia is more about a culture that's unlike anywhere else on Earth. - Please "Like" if you enjoy the video, subscribe to the channel, and turn on notifications! - Please consider supporting OTR on Patreon and thanks so much to anyone who does; your support truly keeps us going.   / otrontheroad   Website: http://www.OTRontheroad.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/otr.offther... - 0:00 - Introduction 1:09 - What is Indonesia? 3:08 - The Mission 5:35 - Breakfast 9:30 - The Land of 30 National Dishes 12:07 - Basics 15:54 - Sundanese 17:43 - Lunch from the Sunda Strait 23:20 - Why is Indonesian Food Anonymous? 26:25 - Mustika Rasa 30:23 - Soekarno's Lunch 34:03 - Challenges and Hope 36:55 - The Bad Years 39:57 - Rujak 48:31 - Nasi Padang 50:34 - Feast 57:20 - So What is Indonesian Food? - Video Credits:    • Indonesia's capital expands public transpo...      • Forest BackGround Video : Drone Footage Of...      • Visiting a 2,000 Year Old Tribe in Sumatra      • Indonesia president gives state of nation ...      • The History of the Malay Archipelago: Ever...      • how men cook in Indonesian village || vill...      • real life in rural Indonesia | Indonesian ...      • TUAK adalah NYAWA.      • Explore SURABAYA City 🇮🇩 East Java Indones...      • Manis Pahit Durian Ucok Medan      • Jakarta FLEA MARKET Walking Tour      • Tegallalang Rice Terraces - the Most Famou...      • $1.13 Famous Fried Rice (Nasi Goreng)!! In...      • Soto Betawi: AMAZING Indonesian Food You H...      • Nasi Tumpeng Agustusan 🇮🇩‼️ CARA MUDAH TAP...      • Nasi Padang - AMAZING Indonesian Food - Be...      • How To Make Lontong~Rice Cakes      • How to Make Ketupat Palas from Scratch | H...      • Cara merebus ketupat agar padat & tidak ce...      • The Chilling Story of the CIA-Sponsored ‘J...      • 40 Years of Silence: An Indonesian Tragedy...      • Pelantikan Pak Harto sebagai Pejabat Presi...      • SYND 18 8 67 INDONESIAN PRESIDENT SUHARTO ...      • The MOST INTENSE Battle Of The Vietnam War...      • Most Corrupt Series: POL POT | The Killing...      • Fall of the Khmer Rouge Footage - Uncoveri...      • 1980's Hanoi | Vietnam | Ho Chi Minh | Thi...      • GS 27 10 82 MEETING BETWEEN INDONESIAN PRE...      • Phuket Patong 1985🇹🇭                      ...      • Bangkok 1980s Nostalgic Footage | ชีวิตกรุ...      • A CASE OF CITIES: DJAKARTA 1980      • Jakarta 1980 archive footage      • How palm oil contributes to deforestation ...      • Bali Era 80an, Denpasar, Gianyar, Legian a...      • Kuta Beach in The 1990s      • Indonesia - Reactions to Suharto's resigna...      • Bali 2000.wmv      • Bali Bombing: Cracking Southeast Asia's De...      • Osama Bin Laden declares jihad in 1997 CNN...      • Anthony Bourdain A Cooks Tour Season 1 Epi...      • japanese Iron chef Morimoto and Michiba ap...      • Very funny commercial from Thailand      • Dude, Where's My Car? (2/5) Movie CLIP - A...      • Street Food in Jakarta, 1980s Indonesia fr...      • MARSADA BAND - DOS DO NAKKOK NA (Official ...      • 24 Hours of INDONESIAN STREET FOOD 🇮🇩  Jak...      • Traditional Jakarta Street Food You Must T...      • 24 HOURS in PADANG - #1 HALAL Restaurant +...      • Bangkok, Thailand, circa 1980      • A Food Tour of Manila’s Chinatown | Anthon...      • Exploring and Eating in Koreatown NYC. Ama...      • Excellent Nasi Padang at Geylang Serai Mar...      • This food made me fall in love with Indone...
