Gado-Gado Salad: Taste of Diversity, Celebrating Diversity



When I am in Jogja, I always take chance to eat one of may favorite Indonesian food, a salad called Gado-Gado.


According to Wikipedia, Gado-gado (Bahasa Indonesia) or also called Lotek (Sundanese and Javanese language) is an Indonesian vegetable salad served with a peanut sauce dressing. If you are vegetarian, it can be the delicious food for you.

Because I love delicious and healthy Gado-gado, I write a Fable Short Story/ Flash Fiction of Gado-Gado to celebrate the diversity.
Gado-gado content group of unique ingredients and I use their uniqueness to represent diversity.

The uniqueness in unity can be beautiful and powerful-- Unity of Diversity.
