"I sampled Kapal Selam, Lenjer, and Kulit today, following the glowing recommendations from many. In terms of texture, the Kulit stole the show—it surpassed even the much-lauded Kapal Selam among connoisseurs. The Kulit boasts a perfectly crispy exterior paired with a tender, chewy interior, while the Kapal Selam practically melts in your mouth. The base flavor truly shines with a genuine hint of fish that is both distinct and balanced. The accompanying Cuko sauce is a masterpiece on its own, offering a savory, tangy, and mildly spicy profile that enhances the dish without overwhelming it. Every element comes together in a harmonious blend of fish, umami, and the sweet, sour, and spicy notes of the sauce. The aftertaste is refreshingly vibrant, courtesy of the well-balanced tang of the Cuko, and the dish is impressively non-greasy. Overall, it was an exceptionally balanced culinary experience"
