There are many restaurants in Bali and they all serve a variety of food but one rarely found is Balinese. To try the local dishes venture to the streets where the snack vendors, kaki lima carts, wander during the afternoon selling select dishes. Don’t be scared to eat at these meandering street carts, if the locals are lining up then you can trust the food will be well prepared. The vendors usually sell one specialty but its never a long wait till the next cart comes rolling by. Nothing hits the spot like these afternoon snacks.
