Warung Lama H. Ridwan — Restaurant in Malang

At this place you can find ( in my opinion ) the best meat skewer / sate. The name of the dish is Sate Komoh. Marinated minced meat grilled into perfection, with a hint of sweetness from the Kecap Manis / sweet soy sauce. You can eat it with Nasi Rawon or Nasi Pecel or maybe Nasi Campur. This skewer is a match to any kind of dish. The owner is really friendly, he also tell me the background story of this legendary food stall. If you want to taste their Sate Komoh, you can go directly to Pasar Besar, located on the lower ground floor. Ask the people around there, they will give you...

I always arrive at this restaurant before 7.30 AM when the market is still quiet and not many people come to have breakfast. There are a lot of delicious food but i like most their nasi gule, sate komoh, and sate usus. Malang people love eating those kinda big breakfast tho. Their nasi rames with empal and serundeng is also good. Ridwan Lama offers smaller portion of rice and juicier satay than some old Javanesse restaurant here. I hope Pasar Besar could be better than its existing building and situation therefore more...

Bertahun lalu, beberapa kali diajak teman makan di sini. Kemarin cobain lagi. Pas saya datang, jam 9 pagi, suasana sedang agak sepi jadi leluasa motret dan videoin sedikit. Dulu kalau ke sini mesti pas jam makan siang, jadinya rame.

Kemarin order nasi gule dan es jeruk. Gulenya enak, otentik, santan dan bumbu rempah cukup terasa. Jadi nostalgila karena mirip masakan almarhumah Eyang Tri dan Mama saya. Sate komohnya juga enak, dagingnya empuk, legit, gurih, bumbunya meresap sampai dalam. Buat lidah saya yang sudah mengurangi manis, sate komohnya sedikit kemanisan. Wajib dicoba, karena sate komohnya favorit. Juga ada sate usus, perkedel, tempe goreng hingga telor asin. Semuanya diletakkan di lèpèk kecil pada tiap meja. Tinggal ambil untuk tambahan lauk, jika mau. Perkedelnya cantik, lapisan luar telurnya keriting berserabut dan rasanya juga lumayan enak.

Pegawai cekatan, cukup ramah. Walaupun terletak di dalam pasar tradisional, tempatnya bersih meski tidak terlalu besar. Meja juga bersih dilapnya. Tidak lengket, tidak berminyak. Pertahankan kebersihannya ya! Oh, ya nuansa jadulnya makin terasa kalau menghayati foto2 hitam putih di tembok.

Dijaga terus ya, rasa makanan yang otentik dan nikmat. Semoga tetap laris di tengah gempuran makanan...
