Pisang Goreng Madu Bu Nanik, Traditional Indonesian confectionery in Grogol Petamburan, Indonesia.
Pisang Goreng Madu Bu Nanik is a snack restaurant in the Grogol Petamburan district of Jakarta, Indonesia, focused on fried bananas coated in honey. The bananas are fried until the outside is dark and crunchy while the inside stays soft and sweet.
The place started in 2007 as a small street stall before growing into a fixed establishment. The original cooking methods have remained unchanged since then.
The name "Pisang Goreng Madu" translates directly to "fried bananas with honey" in Indonesian, which is exactly what is served. Fried banana snacks are deeply rooted in everyday Indonesian food culture and are eaten at all hours of the day.
The place is on Jalan Tanjung Duren Raya and offers both seating and takeaway options. It is open daily, making it easy to fit into a visit at any point during the day.
Every serving uses the Raja banana variety, which caramelizes naturally during frying without any added sugar beyond the honey coating. This behavior of the fruit is what separates this dish from versions made with more common banana types.
