Experience the rich and captivating flavors of the archipelago, bringing history and culture to life in every bite

Indonesia has once again showcased its rich cultural legacy on the global stage through the "Indonesia Spice Up The World" (ISUTW) campaign. Initiated by the Indonesian Ministry of Tourism, this campaign introduces Indonesia’s culinary wealth while promoting the nation as a premier travel destination. The campaign highlights the distinctive flavors of the archipelago, infused with history, diversity, and the stories behind each dish.

From Spice to Plate: Exploring Indonesia's Culinary Core
At the heart of the ISUTW campaign lies an invitation to delve into Indonesia’s culinary culture through a carefully curated selection of iconic dishes. Each dish serves as a window into the nation’s past, present, and dynamic culture:

• Sate Ayam: Grilled chicken skewers served with rich peanut sauce, offering a harmonious blend of Indonesia’s bold flavors.
• Gado-Gado: A mix of steamed vegetables, tofu, and eggs drizzled with sweet and savory peanut dressing, reflecting Indonesia's commitment to fresh and healthy ingredients.
• Soto Ayam: A warm chicken soup infused with robust spices, embodying the comforting essence of Indonesian hospitality.
• Nasi Goreng: A globally beloved fried rice dish enriched with sweet soy sauce and prawn crackers, delivering an enticing fusion of textures and flavors.
• Rendang: A slow-cooked beef stew seasoned with complex spices, celebrated as one of the world’s most delicious dishes.

Each dish not only satisfies the palate but also narrates the journey of spices and Indonesia’s cultural diversity.

Connecting Culinary Art with Tourism

Through ISUTW, Indonesia not only introduces its authentic flavors but also invites global travelers to experience the nation’s beauty firsthand. Culinary delights act as an entry point to explore Indonesia’s stunning landscapes, tropical beaches, and the warm hospitality of its people. Known as the “Mother of Spices,” Indonesia has played a vital role in the global spice trade. Spices such as pepper, cloves, nutmeg, ginger, and cinnamon form the foundation of Indonesian cuisine and symbolize the country’s historical influence on global commerce.

A Global Expansion of Indonesian Flavors

The ISUTW campaign envisions a significant expansion of Indonesian culinary presence worldwide, targeting 4,000 restaurants in various major cities. After its successes in Amsterdam and Paris, the next steps aim to bring this initiative to even more countries.

Additionally, the campaign leverages digital platforms to reach broader audiences. Through social media and collaborations with influencers, Indonesian culinary stories are shared in captivating ways. A social media contest even offers participants the chance to win a trip to Indonesia, inspiring more people to explore the nation’s culinary richness at its source.

Cuisine as the Face of Culture and Tourism

Indonesian cuisine is more than just a matter of taste—it is a representation of culture, history, and natural beauty. The ISUTW campaign invites the world to embrace Indonesia’s diversity through experiences that engage all the senses. By combining culinary excellence with tourism, Indonesia positions itself as a global leader in culinary tourism. With this campaign, Indonesia not only offers tantalizing flavors but also promises unforgettable adventures waiting to be explored.
