"First things first when arriving Cirebon city! Local food, nasi jamblang, and this is the place that I always won’t missed when I’m in town. Perfect & comfort food especially the perkedel. But don’t expect a comfort place, get ready for “sauna” experience. If you want, you can bring your own handfan"
