Rendang (Beef Rendang)

This is my favorite menu when I have a dinner in Padang Restaurant. Yup..Beef Rendang. Originally from Minangkabau but now it is served outside Indonesia as well. Beef Rendang is also famous in Singapore and Malaysia and usually served in traditional festival. But there are differences between Indonesia and Malaysia, In Indonesia Beef Rendang is prefer to enjoy with rice then in Malaysia it's enjoyed with ketupat. (a compressed rice cake).

What is Duodenal Ulcer and How to Diagnose?

The condition referred to as Duodenal Ulcer is one that typically announces itself as a sharp, severe pain in the upper part of the abdomen (the Epigastrium), appearing when a person is hungry and the stomach is empty. Essentially, duodenal ulcers are caused by too much acid in the stomach; when the acid proves too strong for the protective inner lining of the duodenum (the part where the stomach joins the small intestine), it starts, in effect, burning a hole in the stomach wall. It is this crater, or ulcer, which results in pain, particularly when there is no food inside the stomach to use up the acid that is being produced. Patients who develop duodenal ulcers usually tend to get relief from their pain by taking some milk, bland food or antacid tablets (like milk of magnesia), which can neutralize the excess acid. The danger of duodenal ulcers is that they erode the stomach wall - either perforating (so that the contents of the stomach leak out into the abdominal cavity) or erod...

Buy Coffee Direct - Save More, Taste More

There are so many things you can gain from going online and buying your coffee direct from the roaster. For one thing, you do not suffer from having middlemen interfere with the quality of the beans you buy. The reason behind this is simple: the best flavor of coffee comes out right after it is roasted, so once the roasting is done, the metaphorical clock starts ticking, and you will have to get that coffee as quickly as possible (which is usually the case with buying your coffee online) if you want to enjoy it at its best, most aromatic and flavorful state. This is also the factor behind the mediocre quality supermarket coffee that most of us know about, as this coffee is roasted and ground months ago, which means most of the aroma and flavor have already been diffused into the surrounding air. So cut the middlemen out, buy coffee direct from the source. Do your research, try the many blends out there and find which ones you like the most. No problems with selection, as you can bu...
