About

On Java, Pentol Cak Kin sits on Jl. HOS Cokroaminoto No.2, Bedilan, Kebungson, Kec. Gresik, Kabupaten Gresik, Jawa Timur 61114. Its 4.6 out of 5 average across 170 reviews places it among the better-reviewed stops in the Gresik area.

First-time visitors can expect the straightforward, busy character of a Java street food stop, where turnover is quick and the menu is short. The venue has built its name on pentol, the chewy meatball snack that Gresik locals eat through the day. Jakarta, Bandung, Yogyakarta, Surabaya, Semarang, Malang, Bogor and Solo all lie within reach, making the venue easy to add to a wider Java route.

Most Indonesian islands are hot and humid throughout the year, with little seasonal temperature change. Indonesia's seasons follow the northwest monsoon, which brings rain, and the southeast monsoon, which brings drier weather. Indonesian meals are commonly served with sambal chilli paste, and street stalls sell noodles, satay and tempeh.

Wayang shadow puppetry and gamelan music are traditional art forms of Indonesia, especially on Java and Bali.
