About Susie’s Cafe (Local Restaurant)

Tucked off the main strip in Amed, Susie’s Cafe serves scratch-made Balinese plates against an open-air backdrop of rice paddies and Mount Agung. Diners head here for unhurried meals in a quiet bamboo pavilion, pulling up a chair for fragrant tempeh rendang, crispy duck, and steamed fish bundled in banana leaf. Beyond the everyday table service, Susie leads hands-on cooking classes where visitors pick their own menu—readily tailoring curries and sambals for vegan or gluten-free diets before sitting down to eat what they pounded and stirred.

  • Personalized Cooking Classes: Susie tailors private, hands-on cooking sessions to guest preferences, including vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free adaptations.
  • Paddy and Volcano Views: Set away from traffic in a quiet bamboo pavilion overlooking working rice fields and Mount Agung.
