Eating in Bali - Ibu Oka, Ubud

The most famous dish in Bali is Babi Guling - literrally roast pig, and Ibu Oka in Ubud is an institution. It is so popular, most of the time you can't find a place to sit and have to wait.

It is worth the wait ! The roast pig is really great. Marinated with spices and coconut milk in the stomach, the meat is juicy, tender and very flavourful. And the most important part - the skin, is crispy and not too oily. Eaten with rice and the accompanying chilli sauce, this is one of the best meals you could ever have. Provided you are a pork lover, of course !







This was a whole pig when we went there. This was what's left after about half an hour.
