About
Hj. Musilah's warung on Jalan Kawi has been the city's pecel benchmark since 1975, and it is now a roomier, renovated dining room. Pick your sides, from tempe and tahu to offal satay and paru, then let the staff pile on the peanut sauce and rempeyek. It opens at dawn, so it is a classic first stop of the day.
