Rendang
In a way, this one dish is an icon of RM Padang. According to a poll, rendang reached the highest position in the list of the world's best food, you know. No wonder, this one dish has a very rich flavor because of the many spices that are used. Rendang uses a kind of hard meat like brisket.
