Lapet

The first time I laid my eyes on this dish, it looks too ordinary. However, I feel like wanting to have a bite because of its attractive smell. The most attractive part of this lapet is the outer layer which is as white as snow and the sweetness of the brown sugar. The taste was really beyond my expectation which you can only find in Medan.

The best part of it is we can make it at home accordingly to our taste and preferences.
