The Food
I couldn’t have a post about Lombok with out mentioning the food. It was incredible. The variety of curries was outstanding and their were some really good restaurants on Lombok. Here’s just a few of the restaurants we tried and like, a lot!
Molly’s Bar and Grill right next to our accommodation Villa Jati we ate here the first night before we found our bearings. Really good food. Cafe Bumbu sadly this restaurant is now closed but we had the most amazing local food here. Not quite sure why its closed but I’ll keep my eye on it and update if it reopens. The Taman Restaurant we visited this place a few times as not only was the food excellent they also had amazing cocktails.
Some of the best places we ate were the local cafe’s called Warungs. These were small, family owned business and traditionally were small shops selling groceries but since the arrival of tourists transformed themselves into small eateries. Absolutely delicious food cooked and served by the family. A whole meal at lunchtime would cost around a pound.

Excellent blog
Thank you Ratul 🙂
The only part of Asia I’ve seen is southern Turkey, although I always wanted to go to the Philippines and Indonesia. It remains on the bucket list. My friends who have visited described it as heaven on earth with fabulous food! Something like you:))
Thank you Mihaela 🙂
I have never been here, but it looks amazing! And the food all looks delicious as well. I hope to be able to visit here someday!
Let me know if you do Sarah, thank you 🙂
Will definitely explore this if and when I visit Indonesia
Thank you 🙂
Thanks for this informative post! I’d love to see the waterfalls and the monkey forest. Can’t wait to read about Gili Air!
