Adrian Dracopoulos Pre-Ordered Authentic Beef Rendang
The warung accepts bespoke orders for rich, slow-simmered beef rendang placed hours in advance via messaging rather than serving pre-cooked buffet batches.
We pre-ordered it in the morning for our evening meal, so it was freshly cooked and packed with rich, authentic flavours.
Madi Parkinson Unhurried Homestyle Atmosphere
Guests embrace an unhurried island pace, sipping cold Bintangs or playing cards while every meal is freshly prepared from scratch.
We took our cards with us and enjoyed the atmosphere along with a few Bintangs while we waited and it was well worth it.

Madi Parkinson Ikan Pepes (Fish in Banana Leaf)
The mei goreng, pepas Ikan (tuna in banana leaf) and snapper were so delicious we decided to come back every day.
Adrian Dracopoulos Mixed Grilled Seafood
Mixed Grilled Seafood for dinner, and returned to eat it again for lunch. The rest of the menu looked delicious, as did the plates of others around us, particularly the fish in banana leaves, but the grilled seafood was so perfect we wanted it both times we've visited. You get grilled prawns, calamari tubes, and tuna caught next door at Nusa Ceningan.
Kimberly B Pork Babi Satay
We had a Pork Babi satay and Chicken Soto Ayam. Both so delicious. The pork Babi was exactly what I was feeling like, cooked perfectly on the coals at the entrance.
