"The food was very tasty. The waiter was helpful. Food came quickly. Would have been nice to have a little more meat on all the bones. Also, being Europeans, we found it a little difficult to take meat off the bone without knives."

"Location : Manado, South Sulawesi, Indonesia
When I first tried their menu, literraly i fall in love! This restaurant has a special menu of "Soto Rusuk, Babi Toreh, Kaki Babi Goreng, Rusuk Bakar, Regey dan Nugget Ba, Soto Ribs"
Besides being able to enjoy Soto, visitors are also spoiled with beautiful beach views.
Accompanied by the sound of the waves and the view of the city lights at the end of the beach, a special bowl of soto rib ba and a portion of grilled pork ribs is ready to eat.
Their “soto rusuk”, the gravy really tastes like pork broth and other spices, as can be seen from the brownish gravy.
The body immediately felt warm when sipping the first spoon of the sauce. The meat is so tender that you don't have to work hard to bite it off the ribs.
In addition to the ribs, there are also white noodles and pieces of scallion in the soto bowl. In line with the soto ribs, the grilled pork ribs are also very tender and delicious. Its dark brown appearance is truly appetizing. The roasted spices go down to the bone, and they taste really good.
The taste is delicious, the onions are so tasty, savory with very tender ribs.
Various drinks are also provided here, such as juice, es teler, es brenebon, coconut, es cendol, coffee, and several other packaged drinks.
Love it!"
