Generally speaking, Indonesian food has to do with the climate and the geography of the region. And because most people believe in religion, taboo foods are also deeply affected.
For example, can not eat pork food, spirits, and can not use the left hand, can only use the right hand to pass things.
It's a good idea to know local taboos, laws and customs before you go. Indonesia has just introduced a new law that makes it a crime to wear a skirt if your knees are exposed. I don't know if shorts will do, so to be on the safe side, it's best not to wear shorts, that's my advice.
It is impolite to touch people's heads (including children's heads) in Indonesia. And don't use your left hand to hold things when your right hand is convenient, because that is impolite.
When in Rome, do as the Romans do, respect religious habits, most of Indonesia's Islam, do not eat pork and do not drink.
