Bakso Bakar Pak Ali Usman sells grilled meatballs (bakso bakar) that are a favorite of UIR locals. He sets up at MTQ on Jalan Jenderal Sudirman, Pekanbaru, at Rp1.000 per skewer stick!
Let me introduce the seller, Pak Ali Usman. He comes from West Sumatra and moved to Pekanbaru in 1993.
He used to run a grocery stall here. He says in the early 2000s there were still only a few grocery stalls. But as time went on, there got to be more and more of them.
Because of the ups and downs and all the competition, Pak Ali decided to switch to selling grilled meatballs. He has been selling grilled meatballs from 2018 until now. Besides the meatballs, there are also tahu bakso (stuffed tofu) and lumpia bakso (meatball spring rolls).
Give it a try too, BroSis!
