2. Japanese Chicken Teriyaki

Chicken teriyaki is a Japanese chicken dish with savory and sweet teriyaki sauce. Teriyaki means “grilled with shine,” and it is a method of cooking meat and fish.  Sugar in teriyaki sauce gives a shine to the food which makes it not only tasty, but also looks more appetizing. Teriyaki Chicken (照り焼きチキン) is more commonly called tori no teriyaki (鳥の照り焼き) in Japan. Tori () means bird but chicken in this context.

3. Bancakan Nasi Timbel

Nasi timbel is a Southeast Asian hot dish, originating from Indonesia, consisting of steamed rice wrapped inside a banana leaf. It is a traditional Sundanese cuisine from West Java.[1] The heat of the hot-cooked rice touches the banana leaf and produces a unique aroma. It is made in ways similar to making lontong; compressed, rolled, and wrapped in banana leaves; it then evolves into a complete dish served with various side dishes such as fried chicken, empal gepuk (fried beef), jambal roti (salted fish), tahu goreng, tempeh, salted duck egg, sayur asem, with lalab and sambal.
