Martabak Riesky

Nestled in the cozy residential enclave of Perumahan Nuansa Depok, Martabak Riesky is a charming culinary gem specializing in traditional Indonesian murtabak and notably beloved for its authentic pempek varieties. This humble establishment, operating from a home-based kitchen in Pd. Jaya, Cipayung, Depok, exudes a warm, approachable atmosphere that invites both locals and adventurous food lovers to savor classic flavors made with care and passion.

Martabak Riesky’s menu showcases an enticing selection of pempek — a South Sumatran fish cake delicacy — where each bite delivers a tender, melt-in-your-mouth texture enhanced by a perfectly balanced, delightfully spicy vinegar-based sauce. Signature dishes include the Kapal Selam Pempek isi Telor, a generous fish cake stuffed with egg, priced at an affordable IDR 12,000, alongside lighter yet flavorful options such as the Lenjer and Kulit variations, starting at just IDR 4,000. Customers consistently praise the rich, authentic fish flavor encapsulated in every piece and the expertly crafted kuah (dipping sauce) that brings a harmonious kick to the palate.

Visitors like tobio99 describe the pempek as exceptionally soft and easy to chew, with a spicy sauce that strikes the perfect equilibrium—not overpowering the delicate fish essence but amplifying it beautifully. Similarly, Foxy Channel compliments the depth of fishiness in the pempek and highlights the impressively tasty kuah as a standout feature. Despite its tucked-away location down a quiet lane, this "murmer" (price-friendly) spot enjoys a loyal following among those in the know, drawn by hearty portions and honest, flavorful comfort food without any frills.

Whether you are craving a quick, satisfying bite or looking to explore authentic Indonesian street eats in a relaxed, informal setting, Martabak Riesky embodies the soul of home-cooked tradition. Its affordable pricing combined with a passionate dedication to craft ensures that every visit leaves a lingering craving, inviting you to return — time and again — to rediscover the comforting, nostalgic essence of a well-loved heritage dish.

For food explorers willing to venture slightly off the beaten path, Martabak Riesky promises an unforgettable taste experience that feels just like a warm, welcoming hug from the heart of West Java’s culinary culture.
