Bali may be an island that never sleeps, yet it may be a challenge to find eateries that are open till late – especially for night-owls, starving party-goers or even travellers fresh from red-eye flights looking to fill their bellies.

With most restaurants having their last order at 10 pm, it can be a bummer for those wanting to eat after hours around Kuta, Seminyak and Legian.

When you’re thinking of how you can go local, head to Jalan Raya Kuta and look for Nasi Pedas Ibu Andika.

Directly translated, Ibu Andika means ‘spicy mother’ – and true enough, it’s famous for its super tasty, and equally super spicy sambal. A modest eatery with wooden tables adorned with plastic chairs (typical warung-style in Indonesia), eating here is as local as you can get.

Ibu Andika boasts cheap authentic Javanese fare where one simply picks and choose among the many dishes displayed in the glass cases, to go along with your plate of steaming white rice.

So if you’re lost on your way, you need only to ask a local and you’ll find yourself seated and having your meal in no time at all.

A word of caution for those with weak stomachs, avoid the fiery sambal if you’d like to spend your holidays to its maximum potential.

A typical soto is made of rich tangy broth from chicken stock and poured over thin rice noodles (beehoon), and topped with shredded chicken, boiled egg, diced potatoes and beansprouts.

In Bali you can find Soto Ceker (chicken’s feet soto) nestled in Pasar Kuta where the locals flock to for a good bowl of Soto. This is no 5-star place, so be prepared to huddle and sit close to other diners on the row of wooden tables – Indonesian style.

Boiled for many hours in the thick soup, the ‘ceker’ is cooked to perfection. Tender and chewy with a strong flavour and aroma of the broth.

And while the idea of nibbling on chicken feet may intimidate those who unaccustomed to this traditional dish – for the locals and many people around the world it is a delicacy, and Soto Ceker Barokah is the answer for those craving for yummy ‘ceker’.

If you are game to try something a little different, ‘ceker’ is a good dish to start with. Otherwise, you may always opt to have yours without!
