Worth going out of your way for
Why it is our number one: We recommend this for massive portions of Western food that won't break the bank, especially if you love a thick blackpepper sauce. It is the type of local staple that is constantly packed because the value for money is hard to beat.
Where people do not agree: dia punya sambal ini sangat lapedat (very spicy)
Siapa pernah try makan sini mesti fall in love dengan sos blackpepper dia kan. Portion dia besar juga plus harga agak murah.

Good, and well liked locally
Why it made the list: This is where you go to taste history through noodles fried using traditional methods that have survived for half a century. The late opening hours and hidden location make it a true local find for dedicated food hunters.

Why it made the list: This location is actually the place to go for high-quality salt bread, provided you can beat the 9:30 am rush. We suggest prioritizing the bakery items here as they are clearly the local favorite that sells out instantly.
their shiopans sell out super quickly, so make sure to head over early if you’re hoping to grab one

Why it made the list: We find this to be a top choice for a cozy night out combining cocktails with a fusion menu. It is geared more towards a modern, social dining experience than a traditional meal.
If you’re looking for a cozy spot with Asian fusion eats, refreshing cocktails and good vibes Surubar’s the place to be.

Why it made the list: We suggest this spot for anyone looking for the novelty of ostrich meat prepared in the familiar and beloved Ramly burger style. It is a specific night market treat for those wanting to try something beyond the usual beef or chicken options.

People post about these places plenty. What they post about is not local food, so they are not ranked above, and we would rather say that than pad the list.
