19 Best Restaurants in Bali, Offering Indonesian Classics, Vegan Tasting Menus, and More | Condé Nast Traveler

"Tucked down a nondescript road in central Ubud, Hujan Locale is a casual, stylish restaurant serving some of the best Indonesian food in town. Masterminded by chef Will Meyrick, who founded Sarong and Mama San in Seminyak, the concept here is a perfect meeting point between the local warung style of food and fine dining. Taking inspiration from around Indonesia, the menu here is extensive—come with a group of friends and fill your table with as many dishes as possible. Starters include soft shell crab with salted duck egg and red chili; mains include Acehnese charred grilled octopus with sour starfruit. The cocktails, as flavorful as the food, merge the classics with local flavors. In the signature Pala Old Fashioned, bourbon and bitters get a kick from housemade pala (nutmeg) jam." - Regan Stephens
