Bu Leman: "Best oxtail soup of Central Java" Pekalongan Restaurant Tip by theo1006

When we drive from Salatiga to Bandung or Jakarta, we always make a stop halfway at Bu Leman's in Pekalongan for a meal of "sop buntut" at Rp 18.000. There are other items on the menu, but oxtail soup is her specialty. Our own skillful cook cannot match her recipe.
This is a small local restaurant on the eastern side of town. They are closed on Mondays, but when we passed by on a Monday we were served anyhow, being regular guests from out of town.

Favorite Dish: "Sop buntut" or oxtail soup
