One of the best thing in Surabaya is its food street. Surabayanese is kinda different from Jakartanese, or even any other parts in Indonesia. They love something “old” and traditional. They love food that’s introduced by parents, even great great grandparents. It never changed until now.
Traditional Surabayanese food has delicious taste, especially the food street. Even though they run through several generations, they still maintain the taste and it’s still deliciously unresistable.
Sate Klopo or Kelapa, means coconut satay in English. Sate Kelapa is basically a beef satay that’s topped with peanut and ketchup gravy, plus coconut sprinkles on top. A lot of people love it because it’s rare to find a beef satay – with coconut, especially in Surabaya.
With the price and the portion you’ll get, which is 10 skewer of satay. The taste is really good, freshly grilled and you could smell the yummy peanut sauce. Best served while hot, so you might want to eat it fast! The best one served on a leaf, feels like more natural and earthy in a some way.
This is a street food. So you don’t expect a very luxurious place to eat. You need to eat inside of the small stall, or even just stand there on the street. It’s super crowded, whether it’s in the morning or in the evening. Get ready to wait patientl.! If you don’t like to queue, then come early in the morning and make a take away order, so you could eat it at home.
