'Sop Ayam Pak Min': A Legend that Steals Soup Lovers' Heart

Javanese living in Central Java and Yogyakarta might be familiar with this brand of soup. For us here, 'Sop Ayam Pak Min' is a legend. It's famous for being rich of spices, but not too strong. Every sip is just refreshing and spoiling our appetite. A little bit of squished lime, sambal, and sweet soy sauce make it even more perfect. This explanation is not exaggerating.

Served a bowl of rice, a bowl of 'Sop Ayam Pak Min' would make a great meal. Sprinkled crispy fried shallots on top of the rice would definitely add to the delicacy. Some side dishes are served-'perkedel' (fried-mashed potato), fried tempe, sweet instestine sate, sweet quail sate, chicken innards sate, and some crackers-and when you eat them, it will make the whole dining experience unforgettable.

Being a legend, the soup has opened a lot of branches around Jogja and Central Java. Please notify me if you find a branch that I don't know yet. Wanting to try? Go to google map and type the name. You'll find some that might be close to where you are. Give it a try! And it's gonna steal your heart!
