A good place to sample local Karo cuisine is this shack restaurant with wood-crate-panelled walls decorated in murals. The speciality here is BPK (babi panggang Karo) – a delicious assortment of dishes comprising charcoal barbecue pork and rice, a blend of banana flower and tapioca leaves, green chilli sauce, pork soup and (optional) spicy pig blood.
Try to get here before 5pm as they sometimes sell out of food. It's close to Nachelle Homestay, otherwise it's a 15-minute walk from the giant cabbage monument.
