i found this indonesian soy sauce @ tinong son asian market in fort smith, ar for $3.99.
it really helps me to get the indonesian taste of food i make here.
i add it when i make fried rice and fried noodle. or i use it simply as sauce that is mixed with chopped onions, tomatoes, and red chilli peppers and is poured on fried/grilled chicken/fish.
