Pondok Gorengan is a seller of wood-fired gorengan (fried fritters) on Jalan Utama, Rejosari, Pekanbaru (enter from Jalan Hangtuah, not far from the pasar kaget, or pop-up market). There may be plenty of gorengan sellers in Pekanbaru, but this is one of the few still using a wood-fired stove!
The seller comes from Jogja, and locals call her Bude Gorengan. She has lived away from home for about 38 years, first moving to Pekanbaru because her husband was a civil servant posted here.
She started selling gorengan just to help the family finances, but who would have thought, it's now their main income. The price is Rp5.000 for 3 pcs. BroSis, give it a try too!
Prices:
Gorengan (fritters): Rp5.000/3 pcs
Prices as of April 2026, subject to change.
