Lawar Kuwir Men Koko, Canggu

Jasmine

If you’re in Canggu, Bali, you absolutely have to check out Lawar Kuwir Men Koko. This place is a hidden gem that serves up some seriously authentic Balinese cuisine. I stopped by for lunch and ordered a variety of dishes, and let me tell you, everything was on point! The fish was particularly nice, and the total bill for three meals, two rice, and two drinks was just 230k. Talk about a steal!

Now, I have to mention that while the food was ultra delicious, one of the dishes had a few tiny bones in it, so just a heads up on that. But if you can snag a seat in the back, you’ll be treated to a lovely view of the rice fields, which adds to the whole experience. Plus, the prices are clearly displayed, so you won’t have any surprises when the bill comes.

I was a bit hesitant to try this place at first since it’s close to home, but I finally gave in because I heard they have lawar daun belimbing. And wow, it did not disappoint! The lawar pisah was super fulfilling and met all my expectations. Just a tiny note—the soup was a little salty for my taste. If you’re driving, don’t worry about parking; Men Koko isn’t your typical Canggu spot and has enough space for about four cars.

The nasi lawar is incredibly tasty and cheap, and the coconut water is also a must-try. The restaurant is spacious, and you can enjoy a great view of the rice fields while you eat. Overall, I’d rate the food a solid 5.0/5.0, service at 4.0/5.0, and the atmosphere is definitely a 5.0/5.0. It’s kid-friendly too, so feel free to bring the little ones along!

So, if you’re looking for a delicious meal in a beautiful setting, make sure to swing by Lawar Kuwir Men Koko. You won’t regret it!

So, let me take you on a little culinary adventure to a hidden gem in Canggu, Bali, called Lawar Kuwir Men Koko. Picture this: you’re strolling down Jl. Canggu Raya, and suddenly, your nose gets hit by the aroma of something that makes your stomach growl louder than a hungry lion. That’s when you know you’ve found the right place!

Now, let’s talk about the star of the show: the Nasi Lawar Kuwir Campur. This dish is like a party in your mouth, and everyone’s invited! It’s got duck, spices, and a whole lot of love. Seriously, it’s so good that I almost proposed to my plate. And for just 35k IDR (that’s about $2.50 for my fellow travelers), you get a large portion that’s cheaper than your average cup of coffee back home. Plus, you can wash it down with a fresh young coconut for an extra 15k. I mean, who doesn’t want to sip on coconut water while pretending to be on a tropical island? Oh wait, you are!

One reviewer said, “One of the best last remaining Balinese restaurants in the sea of cultural onslaught in Canggu.” I mean, wow! That’s some serious praise. It’s like finding a unicorn in a field of horses. And trust me, this place is halal, so everyone can enjoy the feast without any worries. The Lawar Kuwir is a complex dish that’s like a culinary puzzle, and I’m here for it!

Now, let’s not forget about the steamed duck wrapped in banana leaves. It’s like a cozy little blanket for your taste buds. And if you’re feeling extra adventurous, you can add some duck sate because, let’s be real, who can resist more duck? I added two extra skewers because I’m a firm believer in the motto: “When in Bali, eat like a Balinese!”

And the ambiance? Oh boy! You get a beautiful view of rice fields while you chow down. It’s like dining in a postcard. One reviewer even said, “The restaurant is spacious, and you can have a good rice field view too.” I mean, who needs a fancy restaurant with a skyline view when you can have rice paddies? It’s the ultimate Bali experience!

So, if you’re ever in Canggu and your stomach starts growling like a bear, make sure to swing by Lawar Kuwir Men Koko. Your taste buds will thank you, and your wallet will too. Just remember to bring your appetite and maybe a friend to share the deliciousness with—because let’s face it, sharing is caring, especially when it comes to food!
