你好Uncle lee. I am Bataknese from North Sumatera currently studying in KL. Really happy watching your video. Thank you for visiting and promoting North Sumatera 🇮🇩 through your video. Looking forward to see another interesting vacation. 谢谢

[@UncleLeeAdventures]

You are very welcome… I ❤️ 🇮🇩 … very nice and friendly people with some very amazing coffee ☕️ in the world!

Have you all tried the persimmon grown in the vicinity of Brastagi sold in the Pasar Buah? Sweetest in the world. Better than Korean and Australian. They cover it with serbuk kapur to prevent flies to poke into the fruit. Pasar Buah is also a place to buy Harumanis and Manalagi mangoes too. Apokat (avocado), strawberry and buah salak were so damn cheap. 2009 I visited Medan and Brastagi. There was no bridge built to Samosir Island then. Roads in Medan full of potholes. And Medan Airport got no conveyor belt! Was very backward then.

[@UncleLeeAdventures]

Will need to try the persimmon next time… and yes, new bridge👍🙏 I think Medan changed a lot in the last 10 years… lady boss says it improved a lot since her last visit there during the early 90s.

[@UncleLeeAdventures]

Thank you for making some of the best coffee in the world . 👍🙏

[@peterwu1318]

Oh yeah.. Berastagi also hv so many stret food, restaurant and cafe. So many panoramic coffee shop, chinese food and Babi Panggang Karo (BPK). For me dinner at Kalang Ulu hotel is the best (not only for quest) (cafe style with live band). You should visit Gundaling Farmstead also

[@UncleLeeAdventures]

Noted.. save for next trip 👍

[@solarcoaser]

durian no fight with malaysia, we import from malaysia for the btanded durian

[@UncleLeeAdventures]

No wonder… I would skip durians in Indonesia my next trip there… does this apply to the whole Indonesia including Sulawesi?

[@solarcoaser]

@@UncleLeeAdventures yes , sulawesi they have monthong varian, sulawesi u should go to bunaken manado

[@UncleLeeAdventures]

@@solarcoaser I been to Manado & Bunaken like ~15 years ago for diving! Absolutely wonderful especially macro diving with lots of tiny unique creatures.. but haven’t started making videos during that time.. hope to be able to go again someday. 👍🙏

[@solarcoaser]

@@UncleLeeAdventures instead of going sulawesi why dont you go to komodo island and labuan bajo, now they have internatioanal airport at komodo island

[@UncleLeeAdventures]

@@solarcoaser that’s a good suggestion too… I have been wanting to go to Komodo for a long time already! 👍

[@joyanjora4868]

the strange things u saw before is called cekala . often used for cooking to add sour taste

[@UncleLeeAdventures]

Interesting… something like tamarind.. 🤤👍🙏

[@solarcoaser]

for crab i would go to rasa kita for the crab porridge

[@UncleLeeAdventures]

Noted… for next trip

[@solarcoaser]

Uncle Lee That’s is not the avocado fruit though in the same family, it is alpukat fruit. In Malaysia, it’s planted too. ❤

[@solarcoaser]

avocado is alpukat

[@UncleLeeAdventures]

Thanks for the information.. I learned something new today 👍

[@UncleLeeAdventures]

Is it a local name? Alpukat?

[@solarcoaser]

alpukat avocado is the same latin name persea americana from south america, bring by dutch to indonesia in 1920-30 to be planted in mountain area

[@kennethkokkionkhoo1533]

@@solarcoaser l beg to differ, alpukat is large sized.

[@irwanhadi3824]

What a nice vacation. This tour guide looks quite genuine too. But, just asking, did this tour guide take you to tourist traps for shopping then make commission like many other guides do? Do guides like him expect a tip? If so what's the going rate?

[@UncleLeeAdventures]

The tour guide was awesome… no, didn’t bring us to tourist traps. The itinerary is in the description of this video. As for the tip, it’s not included in package price. I always feel that tipping is really up to individuals and I don’t know what’s the market rate for it. For me, tipping is very personal and I enjoyed his company, enthusiasm and also appreciate his hard working nature and safe driving. I tipped him RM300 at the end of the trip.. maybe a lot but I want to make it memorable for him as he was with me entire 5D/4N and he had to be away from his family while driving us around.

[@legambaz]

@@UncleLeeAdventures Good to know. Maybe it's just my luck that we didn't find my guides in the past that great. Reasons for us no buying any tour packages from any agency for the longest time. But I can see the advantage of using a good agency in this case as places you've been and seen aren't widely publicized, and they are enjoyable.

[@peterwu1318]

It's ur preference uncle. But i think travelling to Medan just like us from Medan to penang or KL. No need tour guide, just rent a car with driver. so you can eat anywhere recommended food. No needed to eat at hotel's restaurant. If you don't know where to eat/to go, just googling and ask local people

[@peterwu1318]

Maybe for next time. At Parapat, there's Hongkong restaurant (also others chinese restaurant) and Damasus (batak restaurant). At samosir only missed pizza. And also Siantar city (before Parapat) so many delicious food like " Mie pangsit Aon, babi panggang 88, roti ganda, Kok Tong coffee shop, etc. At Medan, so many Delicious and famous food but for RM. Simpang Tiga, i think Gumarang better. More famous and crowded. Ucok durian is famous but so expensive. Indonesia durian can't compare with musang king. Malaysia durian is the best of all durian, but if you eat Indonesia local durian with much cheaper than musang king maybe still worth it. (25k-50k IDR)

[@legambaz]

@@peterwu1318 Thanks for the intro. Would definitely keep all these recommended places in mind.

[@richardchong5945]

Nice place Medan

[@UncleLeeAdventures]

Yes 👍
