This Is Yana Mulyana’s Favourite Sahoor and Iftar Menu, Any of Your Favourites, too?

Ramadan 1443 Hijriah has reached the 9th day. For muslims who are fasting, sahoor and iftar menu must be identic with their favourites. The same applies to the Acting Mayor of Bandung City, Yana Mulyana.

 

During his activity of donating takjil to Bandung City residents in the town hall of Bandung City (in front of Pendopo), Yana shared his favourite iftar and sahoor menu.

 

“I usually eat green grass jelly or kolak candil for iftar. And nata de coco,” he said.

 

He also shared his habit of not eating heavy meals right after iftar. To him, sweet or fresh drinks and green grass jelly or kolak candil for iftar were enough.

 

After that, Yana continued his activities: praying.

 

Different with iftar moments, he explained his favourite menu for sahoor.

 

“For shaoor, it is one ball of rice. The side dish is meat or chicken. If there are vegetables, I usually eat them,” he said.

 

Additionally, in sahoor, Yana usually eats steamed cucumbers and small pumpkins. These two dishes are his tradition since he was a kid.

 

“It is a tradition from my mother. It is said to cool the stomach. Well, to me, it is jut because they taste good,” he said.

 

He felt grateful for not having any dietary restrictions. Despite that, he always maintains his body by consuming healthy food.

 

“Alhamdulillah, up until now, my dietary restrictions are only unpleasant food. To me, there are only two types of food: delicious and very delicious,” he said while laughing.

 

When asked about the atmosphere of Ramadan this year, Yana said he still enjoyed his role as the Acting Mayor of Bandung City. He also stated this when fromalizing Ruang Curhat Curug Tilu some time ago.

 

“Sure, my body is tired, but for the sake of Bandung City I do it. I am grateful for it. For the sake of beloved Bandung City,” he said. (ray)**
