Surabaya Zoo, locally known as Kebun Binatang Surabaya (KBS), is not just a place where visitors can see a diverse range of wildlife; it also offers a slice of the local culinary scene. While the zoo itself might not have a rich food history as its primary function is wildlife conservation, it is placed within Surabaya, a city known for its vibrant food culture. Surabaya's culinary repertoire takes influences from Javanese, Chinese, Indian, Arab, and European cuisines, offering an eclectic mix for visitors to enjoy. The food stalls and small eateries within or near the zoo serve various local delights that reflect the region's culinary heritage.
