Wisata Kuliner: Brongkos Ijo Bu Padmo


Pernah menikmati brongkos Warung Ijo Bu Padmo yang berada di bawah Jembatan Krasak, Tempel, Sleman? Nah, ini dia! Diam-diam ternyata brongkos Warung Ijo Bu Padmo ini telah terkenal sejak tahun 1950. Jadi, sudah hampir 60 tahun warung ini melayani pecinta brongkos dan sampai sekarang tetap melegenda. Hebat kan?

Bagi Anda yang hobi wisata kuliner, jangan pernah keliru kalau mau menikmati brongkos Warung Ijo sebab sekarang ada banyak warung brongkos yang menggunakan nama Brongkos Warung Ijo juga. Bahkan fisik warungnya juga bercat hijau. Ssst, hati-hati ya, Warung Ijo Bu Padmo tidak buka cabang lho. Jadi, jangan sampai tersesat sehingga tidak kecewa (bukan promosi, tapi kenyataannya memang begitu kok).
Nah, siap-siaplah dengan kejutan sensasional yang akan menggoyang lidah Anda dengan sajian brongkos Warung Ijo Bu Padmo. Jika Anda memang berperut karung, boleh pesan dua porsi sekaligus. Sebab porsinya memang bukan porsi kuli. Tembi sendiri pingin pesan dua porsi sekaligus, tapi nggak enak di hati. Kecuali bikin boros, malu juga disangka berperut karung. Seporsi brongkos harganya cuma Rp 10.000,- (harga pertengahan bulan Juli 2008). Tambah segelas teh manis cuma Rp 1.000,-. Tambah sepotong empal, babat, atau iso yang telah dibacem dan digoreng cuma Rp 5.000,-.

Brongkos Warung Ijo Bu Padmo menjadi legendaris karena mmm, rasanya memang seperti kata Bondan Winarno itu, “mak nyusss.” Komposisi bumbu yang dibuatnya demikian pas banget. Kuahnya tidak terlalu encer, tetapi juga tidak terlalu kental. Warnanya juga tidak pucat namun juga tidak terlalu gelap seperti rawon Jawa Timur. Dagingnya? Jangan tanya deh. Benar-benar empuk. Terasa lembut jika dikunyah. Ditelan terasa nyaman. Bumbu-bumbunya itu lho ngresep banget di serat-serat daging atau koyornya. Pantaslah jika banyak orang menjadi ketagihan dengan brongkos

Ramayana Ballet

Sendratari Ramayana
Presented by more than 250 artists at its original place: Ramayana Open Air Theater & Trimurti Theater
Prambanan Temple complex - Yogyakarta - Indonesia
Ramayana is the Java's finest example of storytelling in stone in which the epic is egrved on the wall of Siwa Temple in the complex of Prambanan sanctuaries. Prambanan's version of the Ramayana differs somewhat from the original Indian epic, reflecting the adaptation to Javanese sensibilities over the centuries.
More recently, the Ramayana has been adopted for the performing arts. Since the 1960s, hundreds of dancers have brought the ancient relief's panels to life at Prambanan's open- air theater, located just west of the temple complex. Essentially, a traditional dance drama minus the lengthy dialogue, the Ramayana Ballet or "Sendratari" - an acronym composed of the indonesian words of art, drama and dance - is rocking good theater, with enough heroics, tragedy, romance and mayhem to satisfy the most jaded modern spectators, all presented under a tropical moon with the magnificent floodlit Roro Jonggrang Temple as a backdrop.
The entire Ramayana epic consists of four episodes, each night one episode, presented from 07.30 to 09.30 p.m. in four clear nights on and around the full moon, each month from May through October. The full story is held at Trimurti Theater every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday; presented by more than 50 professional dancers

5 Interesting Places In Jogja

1. Borobudur
The first interesting places in Jogja is borobudur. Borobudur located in mungkid subdistrict, about 40km from Jogjakarta. And Borobudur was built by King Samaratungga, one of the kings of Old Mataram Kingdom. Based on Kayumwungan inscription, Borobudur was a place for praying that was completed to be built on 26 May 824, almost one hundred years from the time the construction was begun. The name of Borobudur, as some people say, means a mountain having terraces (budhara), while other says that Borobudur means monastery on the high place.

Borobudur is constructed as a ten-terraces building. The height before being renovated was 42 meters and 34.5 meters after the renovation because the lowest level was used as supporting base. The first six terraces are in square form, two upper terraces are in circular form, and on top of them is the terrace where Buddha statue is located facing westward. Each terrace symbolizes the stage of human life. In line with of Buddha Mahayana, anyone who intends to reach the level of Buddha's must go through each of those life stages

The structure, composed of 55,000 square meters of lava-rock is erected on a hill in the form of a stepped-pyramid of six rectangular storeys, three circular terraces and a central stupa forming the summit. The whole structure is in the form of a lotus, the sacred flower of Buddha.

2. Prambanan
Prambanan is the bigest hindus temples in indonesia. Prambanan temple has three main temples in the primary yard, namely Vishnu, Brahma, and Shiva temples. Those three temples are symbols of Trimurti in Hindu belief. All of them face to the east. Each main temple has accompanying temple facing to the west, namely Nandini for Shiva, Angsa for Brahma, and Garuda for Vishnu. Besides, there are 2 flank temples, 4 kelir temples and 4 corner temples. In the second area, there are 224 temples.

3. Sultan Palace
Kraton Jogja, which is a Sultan Palace, is an exotic place with traditional Java ambience in the middle of this city's rapid modernization.In general, it looks like other Kingdom buildings. When we understand the philosophy of them deeper, however, we will understand the symbolical meaning of life philosophy, human nature, how the nature works and human beings live their lives and various symbols of life existence in them.

4. Malioboro
