Soto Ayam translates best with chicken soup, but it is more than just chicken soup. Soto has many ingredients, the most important of which is tumeric (kunir) which is responsible for the yellow color of the broth. Be careful when eating soto, because a few drops spilt on your clothes will waste them forever, as the yellow stains are almost impossible to remove.
Furthermore you will obviously encounter pieces of shredded chicken in the soup and lots of vegetables, rice vermicelli, slices of boiled egg and maybe even a bit of potato. Soto comes in many varieties, depending on the region. Apart from soto ayam, well known varieties include soto Lamongan and soto Madura. From Makassar, the capital of the province of South Sulawesi comes coto Makassar, which is another soto variety. It comes with more (horse) meat than soto. You may eat a bowl of soto with or without rice ar any time of the day, either for breakfast, lunch or for dinner.
