Our Pilgrimage Journey to Medina and Mecca on January 2014: Murtabak, French Fries, and Juices

It turned out, staying in different country, with different temperature, can really affect your body condition. Combined with tight schedules and a lot of activities, can make you ill.

This what happened to Alia and my dad. Both of them, after finishing the Umrah, suddenly goes ill with high fever and rapid cough. From both of them, Dad's illness is worse than Alia's.

One of his request during illness is to have a Murtabak. So, I quickly went to the vendor in front of the hotel to purchase it. The seller is quite nice, but very straight forward. He speaks no English, so the communication is mostly done via hand gesture.

I ordered one Murtabak, one French Fries and Fruit Juice, and being a good foodie, I am "obliged" to taste them before serving :P. The taste in overall is similar with the martabak found in Indonesia, but with smaller portion and less crispy compared with the Indonesian counterpart.

I hope this can help fasten the healing process.

Enjoy!
