History of Nasi and "Katok".

We all use/read Wikipedia.com so that we can sound smart. So here's a little trivia (although most people know these facts, so should we just call it a known fact?)


Knock knock, who's there? Nasi Katok
 
Katok is actually "ketuk" in the Malay language, and it means knock. There is a story behind the name Nasi Katok. It was begun by a couple of teenagers who were feeling very hungry after a midnight practice. They went to a place where they normally bought their food. This place was actually a residential house, which offered Nasi bungkus (a pack of rice with chicken and egg) even in the middle of the night. At any time you could just Katok (knock) on their door, and the owner will come up with fresh hot Nasi Katok. And that's how it became Nasi Katok.
