Warung Bu Rus in Sanur (local Indonesian restaurant) - best nasi campur outside tourist areas
Honestly this place saved my soul after months of overpriced tourist warungs... Been hitting bu rus for three years now and the nasi campur is still unreal. 35,000 IDR for a massive banana leaf with like 8 different dishes - the rendang literally falls apart when you breathe on it wrong
Location is jalan bypass sanur (across from hardy's supermarket), tiny place with those classic plastic chairs but trust me the food is what actually matters here. Bu rus herself still cooks everything and shes been perfecting these recipes for 30+ years. No english menu but just point at whatever looks good - genuinely cannot go wrong with anything
Timing matters: go around noon when everything is fresh from the morning prep. The beef rendang gets that perfect caramelized edge where the coconut milk has reduced to almost nothing. Gado-gado vegetables are crisp and the sambal is proper fire level if you ask for "pedas sekali" - none of that tourist-level heat nonsense
Avoid those seminyak tourist traps charging 80,000+ for inferior versions of the same dishes. Bu rus is what authentic indonesian food actually tastes like when locals cook for locals, not instagram content
