Rumah Makan Pecel Kawi Hj Musilah Asli 1975 — Restaurant in Malang

Wrote this review after posting a review for the other ‘Pecel Kawi’ stall nearby. I am East Javanese who is born and raise with its various local taste. Be knowledgeable that there are two ‘Pecel Kawi’ stalls (this one and the other one is separated by one other food stall between them). Have tried them both consecutively to compare it directly.

This ‘Pecel Kawi’ or traditional boiled veggies with peanut sauce and basil located in Malang’s Kawi street is one of the best and authentic to me. Especially the taste of the peanut sauce as its flavour’s key. It is a balanced combination of sweetness, saltiness and the traditional herbs inside of it that made a good old memorable ‘Pecel’ dish.

The price is quite reasonable for a legendary ‘Pecel’ cuisine in Malang. The place has on-street parking lot with two storey stall that equipped with air con on the second floor. Bamboo-ish decoration, nice and clean place is also a good thing to have here. All in all, will recommend this ‘Pecel Kawi’ stall to be...

Really like to eat here. The nasi pecel is their most favorite menu here, this cuisine is also the one that give this place its legendary reputation.

I really like the nasi pecel, the peanut sauce's taste is excellent. Would love to come here again. My family tried other menu as well, nasi campur (mixed rice) and nasi liwet, and their taste were amazing as well. The staffs were very busy, professional, and polite. They will help tou bring you what you want. The place, eventhough rather simple, brings some old atmosphere somehow. Maybe because it is located in a once famous street corner in Malang. Several buildings in the area are still preserving old style theme. Really recommended place to...

Glad to have chosen this joint, among the many local favorites, during our short stay in Malang.

To order, we have to stand in line. We can either select from the list written on the wall or simply choose from the large variety of food presented behind the counter. Service was friendly from the various of servers we encountered.

The sego pecel is easily recommended as it's tasty and aromatic -with kencur flavor- served in generous portion. The fried paru on a stick is really good as it has the authentic taste with the right chewy texture, not too hard nor soft. Brings nostalgic moment from my childhood days eating paru goreng. The perkedel is also flavorful, filled with soft textured mashed potato.

During my visit, I was initially concerned as the first floor seating was all full. Turned out there were plenty more seating on the second floor. Parking is...
