As I stepped into Depot Sumber Asih, nestled quietly on Jl. Rambutan No. 22 in Denpasar, Bali, I felt an immediate sense of warmth and welcome. The ambiance is reminiscent of a cozy family gathering, where the aroma of home-cooked meals fills the air, inviting you to sit down and indulge. It’s like being invited to your aunt’s house for a hearty meal, and trust me, you won’t want to leave!

The menu here is a delightful homage to traditional Indonesian cuisine, with standout dishes like Gado-Gado Lontong, Nasi Campur, and Lontong Cap Gomeh. I was particularly drawn to the Gado-Gado, a vibrant salad of blanched vegetables, boiled eggs, and peanut sauce that dances on your palate. One visitor raved, “I love the gado2,” and I couldn’t agree more. The flavors are fresh and comforting, making it a must-try for anyone wanting to dive into the local culinary scene.

But let’s talk about the Sop Buntut (oxtail soup) – it’s a revelation! One patron reminisced, “Grew up with the best sop buntut in Bali. The broth is so full of flavor with its soft melting delicate goodness of the buntut.” The rich, savory broth paired with warm white rice and salted fish creates a symphony of flavors that is simply unforgettable. It’s no wonder that this dish has become a staple for many who visit.

The Lontong Cap Gomeh is another highlight that you simply cannot miss. A customer shared, “My grandma loves its lontong cap gomeh,” and I can see why. The dish is a comforting mix of rice cakes, vegetables, and a variety of spices that encapsulate the essence of home cooking. It’s clean, delicious, and truly nostalgic.

For drinks, I highly recommend trying the Daluman and Cendol. These traditional beverages are refreshing and pair perfectly with the rich flavors of the food. One enthusiastic diner mentioned, “Wonderful oxtail soup, salted fish and rawon,” which perfectly sums up the delightful experience at Depot Sumber Asih.

With a perfect score of 5.0 for food, service, and atmosphere, this hidden gem is a culinary treasure in Bali. The prices are incredibly reasonable, ranging from Rp50,000-75,000 per person, making it accessible for everyone. So, if you’re looking to understand the heart of Balinese culinary culture, make sure to stop by Depot Sumber Asih. It’s not just a meal; it’s an experience that will leave you longing for more!
