Ibu Oka's suckling pig

They have 2 restaurants now, Ibu Oka and Ibu Oka 2. Both also located at Ubud. So famous that everybody said is a must when you visit Bali. Should give it a try and judge it yourself as I believe different people has different taste.
Ibu Oka address: In between Jalan Suweta and Jalan Tegal Sari. No.2, Ubud, Bali. (can ask any taxi at ubud and they can bring u there)

I visited Ibu Oka in my previous visit, and this time I choose to visit the Ibu Oka 2.
Much more confortable.


See, the area is bigger, double storey and with proper table and chair, don't have to sit with leg folded. Not sure about the crowd as I reached that at 3 pm


About RP30,000 for a plate, if you like avocado, remember to order the avocado juice here, very nice.

I like it with lots of chillies

Signage

Saw this sign along the road at Bali, Just in case you rent a car and this mean do not stop along the road. We don't have this sign in Malaysia....

food court, kuta beach

Located in between mercure hotel and mcdonald at kuta. Entrace to Poppies lane 1.
Once you walk in, every stall will be shouting and calling you. just choose a place and sit down. I noticed that all the picture at the stall are same. I think there is only one kitchen.....sigh

but the food is ok.

I order soup noodle. lots of msg

Friend noodle. nice and tasty. RP 20,000

Friend Fried RP 20,000. very sweet, i think they put sugar fried it

The best. sweet and sour soup RP 10,000

There is a spa located inside this food court. Never ever walk in, i pay for 2 hours and she only do 1.5 hours. shoulder and body massage like somebody touching you softly.....sigh. ask her harder and she couldn't be bother....very very bad

Balinese Food, Bali

Located at Sanur, if you pass by this area, do give it a try. Authentic Balinese food.

Nice environment


Served with super duper chillies


this is Nasi campur. RP 45,000. A little bit of everything.

This is the best. called cumi-cumi means squid RP50,000. The squid cook to the perfection, so soft and tasty.

Famous in Bali for their bebek goreng (fried duck). RP60,000. I find it a bit too dry. Like they fried it for too long but the taste is good.

Nusa Dua, Bali

Nusa Dua, famous for their motorsport. If you cater a car, they will normally bring you to this area cos the driver will get a commission if you engage them.
If you walk down further, you will find others that offer cheaper price





tubbing....look fun


Flying fish, per person about RP150,000. I didn't really nego cos we are in hurry for lunch, so try it. Parasailing they offer me for RP100,000 per person. I think can nego further if you take a few sport at a time.

You will walk pass this hotel. look fantastic from outside. Will consider to stay here if I decided to stay in nusa dua next time. The Royal Santrian

Kuta Beach services

Pleat my hair + pedicure + medicure = RP 100,000 (remember to negotiate)

Poppies lane 1

See the tree house cafe, they serve good western food. sandwiches and pasta. shops along poppies lane 1.

Uluwatu

This temple worth a visit if you are near Uluwatu. Entrance fee RP 3000.




Walk for 5 minutes and you will see a big area with lots of monkeys. Be careful, they will snap your stuff (hat, glasses, hairband or whatever is hanging) and you got to buy a bag of papaya or banana to exchange it. very smart isn't?

Then you will see this superb view:

Walking up the stairs, you will reach the temple:
