Poppies Restaurant

Frommer's Review

Poppies has a 30-year tradition of serving Indonesian and international specials on the busy beach. It's the place for your Western fix and is certainly the prettiest restaurant in the Kuta area: a garden setting with crawling vines overhead that keep the hot sun at bay, accompanied by babbling pools and waterfalls. Indonesian dishes include an outstanding ikan pepes -- mashed fish cooked in a banana leaf with fine spices and very spicy local "pickles" (beware). The mie goreng, loaded with shrimp and vegetables, is also good. Service is slow, but this is a good place to dawdle.
