Cobra Ice Restaurant — Restaurant in Salatiga

My mom once saw a reel about this restaurant, so of course we visited when we had the chance. I already saw the google reviews, but still the place was smaller than I expected – so yeah, parking is very limited.

Everything about the restaurant gives off a vintage vibe. I tried their Ayam Goreng Modern as recommended by many people here, and indeed the portion was quite big. The taste was okay, and maybe because I ordered the breast cut, the meat is a bit hard and the seasoning didn’t really absorbed.. But the sambal really helped to elevate the dish.

Their Siomay Goreng was more like spring rolls, but still good. I also tried the Es Roti and was soo full at this point lol. My mom ordered Gado-Gado, Nasi Liwet, and Es Kencana – she said they were good as well. They also sell many kinds of snack which is nice for last minute...

First time here. Knew this place from IG posting and I came here for their modern fried chicken, deep fried chicken with butter and worcestershire sauce. The skin is still crispy and the meat is still moist and best if you soaked it with the sauce.

Nasi liwet is kinda look like nasi ayam of semarang than nasi liwet from Solo. The portion is very fulfilling and it has shredded chicken breast meat with opor sauce and off course sayur labu. Mix them all and you will have a party inside your mouth. Savoury yet creamy and spicy if you add some sambal on it.

The price is also surprising. Lunch for 4 only cost less than 150k. What a treat!

The issue here is the parking and limited seating. And even if you got a seat, it is also cramped, you might bumped into...

This place offer wide variety of home cooking menu. About 2 decades ago my favourite was 'nasi sosis' and avocado ice, with many side dishes : kerupuk, risoles, lunpia, etc But now my favourite is mixed vegetables with peanut sauce a.k.a gado-gado. My son and me always order double portion of gado-gado here, really... it is that tasty for us, the peamut sauce was way better that before. Check out the other dishes, they serves many combination of 'es campur' which is very refreshing, my daughter love them very much. Yes, this is a good place to visit with family. So... Be sure to visit when you are...
