Manado has become one of the top destinantion for best food Indonesia in the past and now Manado still hold the status. The Minahasan Land provides so many delicious food that you can try, most of them is spicy.

There is a lot food in Manado you can try, but the best are Chicken Rica-Rica, Roa Fish Rica-rica and other Rica-Rica. The best desert is probably Klaapertart, This coconut pudding is enriched with strips of young coconut and bits of raisin. If you are lucky, the nightcap will contain a hint of rum. My favorite definitely all stuf relating to Chicken, yeps Chicken Rica-Rica is very yummy and addicted. There is Ayam Rica-Rica in sell in Jakarta but most of them is taste completely different from the one who cooked by Manadonese in Manado city. So go to Manado to try this food is very worthy for me.
