In Indonesia, the usual everyday meal offers a bowl of steamed rice and two bowls with chicken and vegetables, and if you want, you can have a soup as well. People there eat food with their right hand fingers, or a fork. If you wonder why they don’t use their left food for eating, it is because they use it for some, let’s just say, less hygienic issues. Their cuisine is known for being very spicy and cheap.
