This place is quite famous for culinaryholic in Surabaya. They offer one of an Indonesian authentic food: Soto Ayam (Yellow Soup w/chicken) Pak Djayus. As far as I know, they have three places which are in Manyar (first place), Rungkut, and Kendangsari.
A bowl of soto ayam consist of bunch of chicken shredded, vermicelli, boiled egg, and savory yellow soup. The soup itself are made by lots of Indonesian uniques spices such as ketumbar, serai, lengkuas, garlic, white onion, and so on, that is nicely crushed and mixed together, then put it on the boiled water together with the chicken brooth. This is a little secret why the taste of it is fantastic and it smells very tempting!
The combination of soup and the items inside are perfectly matched in my mouth. Don't forget to pour a "poyah" (it's a mixed of dry shrimp crushed until very soft) on the top of soto, it added an essential taste of the soto! Also if you like, you can add "telor muda" (unborn egg) that has superb taste! Very condense and very mouth watering.
One portion of soto ayam costs about Rp. 12.000 (about $1.2) and if you add "telor muda", it costs you another Rp. 4.000 (about $0.40). It's a very reasonable price for such an amazing food!
