Rice ( nasi) is the favoured staple across much of the country, an essential, three-times-a-day fuel. Noodles are also widely popular. The seafood is often superb, and chicken, goat and beef are the main meats in this predominantly Muslim country.

Most water that comes out of taps in Indonesia has had very little treatment, and can contain a whole range of bacteria and viruses . Drink only bottled, boiled or sterilized water.bottled water ( air minum) are sold throughout the islands. Indonesian coffee is amongst the best in the world, and drunk with copious amounts of sugar, or occasionally condensed milk.

Alcohol can be a touchy subject in parts of Indonesia, where public drunkenness may incur serious trouble. There's no need to be overly paranoid about this in cities, however, and the locally produced beers , Anker and Bintang Pilsners, are good, and widely available at Chinese restaurants and bigger hotels. In non-Islamic regions, even small warung sell beer. Spirits are less publicly consumed, and may be technically illegal, so indulge with caution. Nonetheless, home-produced brews are often sold openly in villages. Tuak (also known as balok) or palm wine is made by tapping a suitable tree for its alcoholic sap, comes in plain milky-white or pale red varieties, and varies in strength. Far more potent are rice wine (variously known as arak or brem), and sopi, a distillation of tuak, either of which can leave you incapacitated after a heavy session.

Compared to other Southeast Asian cuisines , Indonesian meals lack variety. Coconut milk and aromatic spices at first add intriguing tastes to the meats, vegetables and fruits, but after a while everything starts to taste the same - spiced, fried and served with rice. Be particularly careful about food hygiene in rural Indonesia, avoiding poorly cooked fish, pork or beef, which can give you flukes or worms.

Vegetarians can eat well in Indonesia, though restaurant selections can be limited to cap cay - fried mixed vegetables. There's also plenty of tofu and the popular tempe, a fermented soya-bean cake.
