Often Referred to as Local Spaghetti, Palembang Also Has Mi Celor as a Distinctive Appetizing Dish

Kapanlagi.com - Palembang is always synonymous with pempek. But don't be mistaken, there are still many other distinctive appetizing dishes from the Land of Sriwijaya. One of them is mi celor. Who here has tried it before?

Mi celor is often referred to as similar to spaghetti because of its similar noodle shape, which is thicker than regular noodles. Its appearance also resembles carbonara spaghetti because mi celor is served with thick and savory coconut milk broth.

This mi is often chosen as a breakfast menu. But it's also not a bad idea to enjoy mi celor for lunch or even dinner.

As reported by Liputan6.com, this mi is made from solid wheat flour, making it very filling when eaten in the morning. The round-shaped egg slices also become the distinctive feature of this mi.
