WHERE TO EAT The best Saksang in the world (according to food experts)

"It was delicious."

"Another famous Batak dish is saksang, which is a type of blood stew. The blood stew was made with pork, and it was extremely tender and delicious."

"If pig's blood is not really your thing, you can ask them to make you Saksang without it. But believe me, it's not the same thing. Like this is just wonderful!"

"Except for the roasted pork, their Saksang is really delicious too."

"It’s run by a couple of friendly ladies who whip up some fabulous and eclectic dishes such as sak sang (chopped pork with brown coconut sauce, cream and a wealth of spices)."

"Lastly, the Saksang here is a fantastic representation of the original Batak flavour. It uses local spices including andaliman, lemongrass, pepper, and lime – resulting in a potpourri of flavours on one plate."

"The pork dishes and saksang were also good. Although it may not look like much, it was truly a feast for me. So far, this is the best Tapanuli Bataknese restaurant I’d ever tried in Jakarta."
