Warung Ibu Oka - Babi Guling

“ Babi Guling of Ibu Oka is something that you shouldn’t miss when you visit Ubud.” You can easily get this tip while you search on foods at Bali. Because of that, our 1st lunch at Ubud definitely to check it out.

After asked around, we had been told that Warung Ibu Oka is just opposite Ubud palace. When we reached that warung, we noticed that it was closed. Looking at the empty warung, I was so disappointed, “Ow.. There gone my Babi guling at Ubud!!”

God must be pity my stomach a lot… I saw a few man carrying board with “Babi Guling ada di rumah”.. Quickly I asked the man, he told us that today they will operate at their house because it’s Bali New Year that day!!! So lucky me, thanks god!

The friendly guy then lead us the way, there were full of people there!! Their seating is just anywhere you can find at low tables under the roof. A man carry the whole big babi to the kitchen... making my mouth watering..



We ordered Babi Guling Special which costs Rp25,000. The Babi guling set comes with a slice of crispy skin, some meat, some fried inner parts and some Balinese chili-vegetable.



The skin actually disappointed me, as it’s too hard, not crispy enough. However, the chili-vege is really nice.. it’s spicy enough and nice to eat together with the meat and rice. Anyhow, this stills the must-try food if you visited Bali.It was a experience to sit together with bus loads of tourists that came from different country, chewing down on Babi Guling.
