At some point in your holiday it could be good to go & experience some local Balinese food. You can eat at a Warung (small usually family owned restaurants) or a Kaki Lima (three wheeled mobile carts) Below you find a few of the most popular dishes available. Selamat Makan (Happy eating)
Nasi Goreng (fried rice) is the one of the most popular Indonesian foods meaning fried rice ,which is traditionally served with a fried egg. The dark brown color from the Kecap Manis (sweet soy sauce) distinguishes it from other popular Asian fried rice dishes. Nasi Goreng has been called the traditional dish of Indonesia.
