Nasi Tumpeng is an exotic dish of turmeric-flavoured rice, bright yellow and shaped into a cone, served with side dishes (meat and vegetables) and beautifully decorated with hand-crafted vegetables.
This dish has significant meaning to Indonesian peoples. Whenever we have something to say thanks about, it has to be present. Wedding, birthday, anniversaries, new year. The mounds of rice represents gold, and the many dishes surround it shows bountiful of foods and lucks.
Tumpeng is also a symbol of life and ecosystems.
Towering cone of rice symbolizes the greatness of God, the Creator of nature and its contents.
While the assorted side dishes are symbol of the content of this universe. It should represent sea water animals (fish, prawn,etc), land animals (chicken, beef, egg, etc) and vegetables (bean, spinach, etc).
