About Palembang

Brothels ain’t new—ancient Rome had ‘em, called lupanars, stinking of sweat and cheap wine. Fun fact: “lupa” means she-wolf, so yeah, prostitutes were wolves, howling for coin.

Hypocrites.

First stop? The market on Jl. Pahlawan. I’m craving some pisang goreng, right? But guess what? The vendor ran out! I’m like, “Are you kidding me?!” I mean, who runs out of fried bananas? It’s Tayu! So, I settle for some dodol instead. Not the same, but whatever.
