WHERE TO EAT The best Nasi pecel in the world (according to food experts)

"For someone whose palate favours spicy and salty flavours, this Nasi Pecel was definitely right up my alley. SGPC Ibu Wiryo is a must-visit joint if you fancy a healthy Javanese meal."

"We guarantee, if you try this Nasi Pecel only once, you'll always want to come back for more."

"As a vegetable lover, I was nicely surprised to find some 'kenikir' leaves in their Pecel. The aroma of the authentic 'kenikir' scent fits perfectly with the savory peanut sauce. Truly delicious!"

"It's easy to find this traditional Nasi Pecel food-stall, right at the Pasar Besi market. They serve their signature dish wrapped in a banana leaf, alias 'pincuk', so it gets even more delicious. Tempeh, tofu, or fried beef nicely complete this meal."

"For us this is one TOP Pecel. They have a rather minimalist approach to the vegetables part: a simple comination of bean sprouts and basil, with some lamtoro seeds as a complement".

"The fresh and crisp vegetables represent Widasi’s excellent know-how in selecting ingredients."

"It was a lovely nasi pecel served above a banana leaf, fully covered by the peanut sauce."

"Unlike the usual Nasi Pecel, the one you get at Mrs Kus is additionally splashed with Lodeh-style vegetable soup. The authentic flavors and scent are already well known among Indonesian foodies."

"We also had Petjel Pintjoek, a mix of steamed vegetables with peanut sauce and rice in a banana leaf. Even the sound of it is mouth-watering. And yes, they were great!"
