About Warung Bintang

Elevated above Candidasa’s emerald paddies, this family-run warung serves unpretentious Balinese cooking at honest prices. Climb upstairs early for open-air seats catching the breeze across the rice terraces. Regulars anchor their tables with grilled mahi-mahi tucked into banana leaves, slow-baked ayam betutu, and house-brewed ginger beer—often finishing with a slice of chilled coconut cream pie.

  • Rice Field Terrace Views: Upper-floor open-air seating overlooks expansive green rice fields and surrounding palms.
  • House-Brewed Ginger Beer: Brews its own homemade ginger beer alongside fresh tropical juices and icy Bintang.
  • Farm-to-Table Cooking Classes: Offers culinary workshops tied to the family farm in neighboring Manggis with complimentary transport.
