Nasi Campur Warung KKN, Danau Buyan

Mira

If you’re cruising through Sanur and looking for a chill spot to grab some seafood, you gotta check out Warung KKN on Jl Danau Buyan No 36. Seriously, this place has some of the best local food I’ve ever tasted in Denpasar. It’s super tasty, and you definitely won’t leave hungry!

Now, let’s talk about the menu. Their Dadar Jagung (corn fritters) are a must-try! They’re crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, packed with flavor. The Nasi Campur Telor (mixed rice with egg) and Nasi Campur Ayam (mixed rice with chicken) are also crowd favorites. Everything is just delicious! One reviewer even said, “You guys should try!” and I couldn’t agree more.

People rave about the prices too. One visitor mentioned, “Great food with great price!” which is totally true. The fish soup is a bit spicy for some, but it’s still super delicious. Plus, it’s halal and affordable, making it a go-to spot for many locals and tourists alike. It’s been a regular stop for some folks whenever they visit Sanur.

However, just a heads up, if you’re sensitive to smoke or have little ones, you might want to think twice. The place can get crowded during lunch hours, and some people smoke, which can make it a bit uncomfortable. But hey, if you’re just there for the food, it’s worth it!

Overall, Warung KKN is still one of those hidden gems in Sanur, even if it’s not as secret as it used to be. The food is solid, and while some say the service could be better, the flavors definitely make up for it. I’d totally come back here if I find myself in Bali again. So, if you’re in the area, don’t miss out on this spot!

As I stepped into Nasi Campur Warung KKN, nestled by the serene Danau Buyan in Bali, I was immediately enveloped by a wave of nostalgia. The aroma of freshly cooked seafood wafted through the air, transporting me back to my childhood, where my mother’s kitchen was the heart of our home. The restaurant, with its humble charm, felt like a warm embrace, reminiscent of family vacations filled with laughter and love.

The menu, a delightful array of local dishes, featured the infamous ‘nasi campur’—a colorful mix of flavors that danced on my palate. The food was tasty and affordable, a perfect blend of authenticity and a touch of foreigner-friendly preparation. Unlike the fiery street food that often leaves you gasping for water, here, the spices were balanced, allowing the freshness of the ingredients to shine through. I was particularly pleased to find yellow rice (nasi kuning) offered alongside the usual white rice (nasi putih), adding a vibrant touch to my meal.

However, as I savored each bite, I couldn’t help but notice the restaurant’s evolution. Once a hidden gem in Sanur, it now faced the challenges of popularity. The service, while friendly, felt a bit lackluster, as if the staff were merely going through the motions. The prices had crept up, a common practice in Bali, leaving a bittersweet taste in my mouth. I recalled a review that lamented the increase in prices for foreigners, which felt disheartening. It was a shame to see a place that once felt like home become a little less welcoming.

Despite these changes, the essence of Nasi Campur Warung KKN remained intact. The food, while perhaps not as pristine as it once was, still held a special place in my heart. I remembered the joy of sharing a meal with loved ones, the laughter echoing around the table, and the simple pleasure of good food. Yes, the restaurant could get crowded and smoky during lunch hours, and cleanliness might not always be guaranteed, but the flavors were still there, whispering stories of tradition and love.

In the end, my experience at Nasi Campur Warung KKN was a beautiful reminder of the power of food to evoke memories and emotions. It may not be perfect, but it touched my heart in ways that only a beloved family recipe can. I left with a full stomach and a heart warmed by the memories it rekindled, grateful for the moments spent in this little corner of Bali.
