Wak M Noodle Stall — Medan, a city in North Sumatra, is renowned for its unique culinary delights that cannot be found elsewhere. Tourists often flock to various culinary hotspots, including Mie Nyemek Wak M.
"Mie nyemek" is a traditional Indonesian noodle dish, originally from Yogyakarta in Central Java. The dish is made by boiling egg noodles and then stir-frying them with a flavorful mixture of spices, vegetables, and protein. The word "nyemek" in Javanese language means to stir-fry or sauté.
Although the Nyemek Noodles at this shop may not differ significantly from those found elsewhere, what sets it apart is that only Wak M serves you, from ordering to cooking and payment.
