Makassar
is the provincial capital of South Sulawesi, Indonesia, and the
largest city on Sulawesi Island. From 1971 to 1999, the city was
named Ujung Pandang, after a pre-colonial fort in the city, and the
two names are often used interchangeably. The port city is located at
5°8′S 119°25′E, on the southwest coast of the island of
Sulawesi, facing the Makassar Strait. Its area is 175.77 km2 and has
population of around 1.4 million.
Makassar
is home to several prominent landmarks including the 16th century
Dutch fort Fort Rotterdam, Trans Studio Makassar—the third largest
indoor theme park in the world and the Karebosi Link—the first
underground shopping center in Indonesia.
Makassar
has several famous traditional foods. The most famous is Coto
Makassar. It is a stew made from the mixture of nuts and spices with
beef parts which include beef brain, tongue and intestine. Konro rib
dish is also popular traditional food in Makassar. Both Coto Makassar
and Konro are usually eaten with Burasa, glutinous rice with coconut
milk and sauted coconut granule.
In
addition, Makassar is the home of pisang epe, or pressed bananas.
These are bananas which are pressed, grilled, and covered with palm
sugar sauce and sometimes eaten with Durian. Many street vendors sell
pisang epe, especially around the area of Losari beach.
