Street Food "Pondok Surya" Binjai - Medan

Another food hunting trip with Lensa Kuliner team last week was outside Medan City.
We planned it already then we choosed Binjai City for our destination. But for this food hunting, my new friend that was friend of Lensa Kuliner team, Micheal Oktando joined us.
He knew about photography well, so I learned a lot from him too :)

Binjai city itself was famous of their cleanliness of the City, how about the foods?
Hell yeah, because of the famous Tahu Balik, we're willing to go there. Not just Tahu Balik, their "Tau Kua Hechi" and "Ifumie Binjai" was famous too.

It takes time about 45 minutes from Medan to Binjai, then we arrived around lunch time already.
The way to Pondok Surya was a bit complex to be enter with car, so you must parked your car first around Jl. A.H.Yani then you walk across the A.H.Yani street until the end point, you'll find out a gangway to be entered at left side.




What is Tahu Balik? 
Actually it was just a fried tofu, but they match and disposed the contect of the tofu then turn over the skin.
The tofu that have been disposed, they used it to mixed with the dough balls (bakso) then put inside the turn over skin tofu.
After that just fried it until golden brown.
Tahu Balik was the identical food of Binjai City and I can easily find it now at Medan. Just still the original one is the best!

Most of us ordered "Bakso" or in english we can called it Meatballs Soup. I loved the Bakso that Pondok Surya served, because the chicken broth from the soup were tasty and savory then I didn't taste the using of food flavorings that much.

Only Micheal ordered the Fried Kale Noodles (Indomie Kangkung). He ordered the standard spicy level, the taste as he said quiet good, but what do you expect from instant noodles taste? It's just the same right?

Last but not least, the broil scallops and jengkol for our finger foods. Quiet good and the scallops still fresh, just I didn't find any special from this one.

Street food will never be too expensive, it just cost us Idr 160k for 5 person portions and the drinks also.
Cheap, delicious and satisfied. 
The range price here around Idr 5k - 20k only.

Good luck and have a good food everybody. #culinarypassiongirl
