"Pioh"
This is a common welcome to visitors in Banda Aceh, the capital of Aceh province. We enjoy a great variety of foods and beverages, influenced by the Arabs, India, Spain and the Dutch.
Acehnese always use herbs to increase the appetite. Our foods are pretty spicy, which is why people usually sweat when eating, besides the hot weather.
