Warung Pecel + Iwak Kali
If you're in the mood for a hearty breakfast that truly embodies the flavors of Indonesia, look no further than Warung Pecel + Iwak Kali, a hidden gem nestled in the welcoming town of Jatirogo, Kresek, Madiun. With its rich culinary heritage, this breakfast restaurant is the perfect spot to kick-start your day with authentic Javanese delights.
As you step into Warung Pecel, you are greeted by the warm, inviting atmosphere that radiates the essence of traditional Indonesian dining. The comforting aroma of freshly prepared dishes fills the air, promising an unforgettable culinary experience.
The star of the show here is, without a doubt, the Pecel dish, a sensational combination of mixed vegetables tossed in a rich, spicy peanut sauce. Customers rave about the flavors—just ask pujo riyanto, who declares the sambal tomat with a hint of jeruk sambel is "mantaf," and even added more rice to soak up that irresistible sauce!
If you are adventurous, don’t miss out on the selection of iwak kali (freshwater fish) offerings. From crisp and succulent wader (small fish) to juicy shrimp and even eel, the quality is top-notch and perfect for a satisfying breakfast. As Andik Lukmana notes, you can get a delectable plate of rice with a mix of iwak kali and sambal terasi for just 15,000 IDR, making it an incredibly pocket-friendly option!
For those with a sweet tooth, the warung also serves a delightful version of tape pohong, a traditional fermented cassava that perfectly complements the savory dishes with its soft and chewy texture.
What truly sets Warung Pecel apart is not just the exceptional food but also the inviting spirit of the local community. Each visit feels like a warm embrace from the heart of Java, and the friendly staff are always eager to share their culinary passion with every customer.
Whether you're a local or just passing through, make sure to add Warung Pecel + Iwak Kali to your breakfast itinerary. With its vibrant flavors, affordable prices, and a friendly atmosphere, it promises to be a highlight of your Indonesian culinary journey!
Don't wait too long, though—come early, as chef Andik mentions dishes often sell out by noon!
