Kj Villanueva July 22, 2026 No Comments

If you’re deciding where to eat in Sidemen Bali, the answer is one road: Jalan Raya Tebola, on the rim of a rice-terrace valley with Mount Agung behind it. It’s one of the few places in Bali where you can still enjoy an open-air meal overlooking rice fields without paying Canggu or Seminyak prices. Whether you’re after a $3 warung lunch or a $16 sunset dinner, Sidemen delivers some of the island’s best views for surprisingly little money. This guide covers 11 of my favorite restaurants and warungs, including what to order, typical prices in Indonesian rupiah and US dollars, plus each restaurant’s Instagram if you want to check the latest photos before you visit.

Finding the best cafes in Uluwatu has become much easier as the area has grown. Whether you are looking for a place to work on your laptop, enjoy a morning coffee, or explore the local surf-café culture, you will find plenty of great options. The Bukit area has transformed from a few simple surf shacks into one of the most vibrant spots for coffee and brunch in Bali. This list covers 14 cafes I actually go to, spread across Bingin, Pecatu, and the Labuan Sait strip.

Regulars tend to rotate between the same few cafes in Nusa Lembongan every morning, and that’s part of what makes the island feel like a place people actually live rather than just pass through. Most of these cafes sit close enough to Jungutbatu to reach on a scooter, with a couple farther out toward Mushroom Bay.

Best Local Warung Ubud: 9 Authentic Spots to Eat Like a Local under $5

Kj Villanueva March 2, 2026 No Comments

The best local warung Ubud has to offer are family-run kitchens where you can eat babi guling, nasi campur, and freshly prepared gado-gado for less than $3.

After three years of eating my way around Bali, these are the Ubud warungs I keep returning to for fair prices, consistent food, and Indonesian flavors that haven’t been toned down for foreign visitors. Most dishes cost between IDR 5,000 and 75,000, or roughly $0.30 to $4.50 USD. Ubud makes exploring local food relatively easy because the main neighborhoods sit close together.
