NASI KALONG ( Bat's Rice Food )

Located at the parking lot of the China Emporium FO apparel store on RE. Martadinata Street (formerly known as Riau Street), the streetside restaurant is open from 8 p.m.
The restaurant is always packed that many people have to queue to find seats. There isn't any fixed closing time. Generally, it is open until over midnight.
The restaurant offers an array of local cuisines, such as udang kremes (shrimp cooked with kremes coconut), jambal roti (kind of salted fish), telor prudul (a kind ofscrambled egg), ayam bumbu madu (chicken meat cooked with
honey) and others. It has a unique menu item called nasi hitam ("black rice").
It is rice cooked with a local spice called bumbu kluwak (also known as pucung) and daun salam (Indonesian bay leaf) which turns the color of the rice into black and adds a special taste to the rice.
The owner of the restaurant claims nasi hitam is good for health, particularly thanks to the salem leaf which is reportedly rich with antioxidant elements.
