A Surabaya specialty, a “cow nose” salad is probably the closest English translation. It tastes a lot like the more ubiquitous “gado gado” with the same peanut sauce and accompaniments, but the addition of a cow’s snout is a measure to use as much of the animal as possible in the midst of hardship during colonial-era Indonesia. Ironic to be eating this at a fancy hotel. For those wondering, the nose itself tastes jelly-like and not gamey thanks to the peanut sauce, but overall I would not have this again.
