Pempek 09 stands out as a beloved pempek spot in Depok, tucked away on Jl. Margonda. This humble eatery delivers authentic Palembang flavors that keep locals and visitors coming back. The menu highlights include the famous Kapal Selam, a hearty pempek stuffed with egg, made from fresh gabus and tenggiri fish, priced at IDR 17,000. Another favorite is the Lenjer—available in large and small sizes—offering a chewy, satisfying bite at an affordable price. Don’t miss the Tekwan and Model, both praised for their rich texture and perfectly balanced savory taste, alongside the signature cukonya—a sweet, sour, and slightly spicy sauce reminiscent of Palembang traditions.

Despite its small, cozy space, Pempek 09 shines through its consistent quality and remarkable taste. Customers frequently mention the crispness of the pempek and the authentic flavor profile, making it a must-visit for anyone craving genuine Indonesian street food artistry. Bringing home their pempek for frying is also a popular choice, allowing the delightful aroma and crunch to be enjoyed fresh.
