Selekoh

Selekoh refers to a traditional Malay or Indonesian roadside stall or kiosk, often specializing in selling food and drinks. These stalls are typically simple structures, sometimes mobile, and provide affordable meals and refreshments to passersby. The food offered at a selekoh varies depending on the location and the proprietor's specialization, but common offerings include rice dishes, noodles, fried snacks (gorengan), drinks like teh tarik (pulled tea) or es cendol (iced dessert with coconut milk and palm sugar), and local delicacies. Selekoh are an integral part of the Southeast Asian street food culture, offering a convenient and accessible dining option for the local population. They also serve as social hubs, providing a place for people to gather and interact. The term "selekoh" can sometimes imply a stall located at a bend in the road, referencing a common location for these establishments.
