Bale Udang Mang Engking located in Desa Peliatan, Ubud, Bali

Bale Udang Mang Engking has two outlets in Bali; one located in Kuta while the other in Ubud. I have a chance to visit the restaurant located in Ubud for lunch on an adventure exploratory trip. This restaurant is an open-area concept with a huge pond surrounding Bale Agung which is the main dining area situated in the centre. Bale Agung can hold a capacity up to 150 people. There are also other seating options known as gubug or bale which can hold up to 9 and 20 people respectively. The experience of having lunch there is unique and peaceful. I sat in a gubug situated above the pond, where there is a “hole” for the legs to place inside but not touching the pond. Soft relax music fills the ambiance while having lunch is definitely a luxurious feeling for me.
