On August 14, 2024, renowned chef Yon Ade held a special event at Kolej Komuniti Selayang, Selangor, Malaysia, titled “Jajal Kuliner Nusantara.” This event was aimed at Indonesian students studying in Malaysia, giving them the opportunity to explore the culinary diversity of their homeland. Yon Ade began the session by introducing various typical Indonesian dishes, such as rendang, soto, and nasi goreng. He explained the background and philosophy behind each dish, inviting participants to learn more about the cultural richness contained in each dish.

The students not only listened, but also actively participated in cooking. They were divided into several groups and given the opportunity to try the recipes that had been taught. This activity created an interactive and lively atmosphere, where students shared their experiences and cooking techniques. In addition to cooking, this event was also an important moment to strengthen bonds between students. Many of them felt closer to each other after sharing culinary experiences and working together as a team.

Yon Ade hopes that through this activity, Indonesian students can bring home new knowledge and skills that can be applied in everyday life. He also emphasized the importance of preserving Indonesian culinary culture wherever they are. With the success of this event, it is hoped that more similar activities can be carried out, so that Nusantara cuisine is increasingly known and loved by the younger generation, both in Indonesia and abroad. This training is a positive step in introducing and celebrating the richness of Indonesian culinary culture on the international stage.
