Iconic ayam kremes restaurant closed down over halal controversy

Hello reader,
Chicken dishes are ordinarily halal, but certain prep methods can make them non-halal, such as exposure to pork or pork products. That’s central to a controversy surrounding an iconic fried chicken restaurant in Solo, which is now facing temporary closure.
Cluck on down for more on that sizzling story, as well as the biggest news out of Indonesia from the past day or so.
Cheers,
Andra
