Makassar Culinary Night 2015

            Makassar culinary night is an event that is organized by Makassar government. This event did to celebrate 408th Makassar anniversary. This is the third culinary event hold after request from society. Makassar citizens have enthusiasm to welcome it. It was proved by visitors that was flowing the location. Before, there were many culinary businesses that wanted to involve, but only 40 culinary tenants available. Therefore, they were selected by organizer team based on certain requirement. It started on 13.00 pm, and visitors arrived to try the entire culinary tenant for buying food and drink they want.


The rain watered the city at the afternoon, and stopped when Maghrib. Although the roadway was wet and muddy, it cannot slacken the citizens to come. The event still crowded especially visited by young people whom enjoyed the Saturday night with their mate or friends. Moreover, the event climax was in the night. There are many performances that enliven the night, such as; some Makassar traditional dance, DJ performer, and songs. There are two stages, first stage special for competitions and second stage for formal performance including a greeting from organizer and guests. A first stage was also fun, because some people gave the support to their friends that competed. People enjoyed the acoustic traditional song and stand up comedy in which popularized now. The standup comedy quiet funny, but it was still spiced by some cruddy beat. It sounds bad—like what some comic do to make joke addition, but as a standup comedy lover, I think it is not creative way to be a beat jokes.

I came with my friend, Erni—my partner trip, and tried to enjoy the performances made. We went around the culinary tenant and chose what would to eat. There was food interesting me to eat, but there was no seat to savor. Because there were many people, they occupied the place provided for long time. It seemed like that they would not go until time was over. We went back the way, and saw the menu board in front of the tenant more clearly. Then, we chose a food named Soto Banjar. The tenant didn’t crowd, but I’m really sure that the Soto Banjar is so delicious. The food presentation was good, the seasoning was enough, and the portion was in proper size. Moreover, the price was also cheap. Unfortunately, I quite enjoying the food, and I forgot to capture it as documentation. May be sometimes I wanted to eat that. I just show the picture of food for finding the place where they sell. We also enjoyed a piece of ice cream named es krim potong. The shape likes kue pawa, but more little. It was solid outside, and ice cream inside the shell. There varied flavor, and I chose Durian and Erni chose Tiramisu. It was delicious, but I actually expected more than that.


The organizer also provided a photo booth with some accessories to photo. This booth also crowded. People have to queue for some capturing. It proves that people like capturing their self indeed. The event would end at 01.00 am, and only held in a day. People must have waiting for next event like this. Because this event also advertise for all things and people are enjoying that.***
