“ Five stars for the taste! I don't actually like duck meat, because it is usually smells and has tough texture. But not in this place. The duck meat is tender, and we can taste the marinade seeps into the meat, and most important of all, the meat doesn't smell bad at all! They served the duck along with rice and mango-chili sauce. This place is very famous in Surabaya, although it is originally from Madura. All the foods are delivered straightly from Madura everyday. So, oftenly, they run out of stock and close this place before evening. ”
“ a lady cleaning the table was being nice to everyone made the experience much better. The place was being overhauled to accommodate more vendors. Looking forward to it. The duck was delish. ”
“ Very good fried duck …… originally is from madura island. Especially the sambal is excellent. ”
“ Food wise it tasted good, but make sure you sanitize the utensils with hand sanitizer cos God knows how they actually wash it. ”
“ The fried Sinjay duck tasted delicious because it was savory and salty. Visually the duck looked big but there was very little meat attached. And, it looked like the fat from the duck was not rendered first. The price per portion is quite expensive and it is best to order online to avoid crowds. ”
