Authentic Indonesian restaurant on the street of Pererenan
Opening up on the main eat street of Pererenan, Paparempa serves up a fabulous smorgasbord of Indonesian cuisine, taking diners across the archipelago with dishes borrowing flavours from distant regions, reintroduced with contemporary flair. Paparempa is impossible to miss when driving down to Pererenan Beach.
Guests can enjoy a variety of spaces, including the first-floor indoor and ground-floor al-fresco dining areas, complemented by outdoor seating that opens up to the garden space, where traditional gerobak add a playful, locally-inspired touch and interaction to the overall experience.
Although serving up an Indonesian menu, Paparempa does not present your typical fare. Chef Oka Wiranata and team have explored the archipelago’s diverse cuisines, whilst offering some truly authentic dishes, and have also prepared a few twists that will entice the curious diner.

Build a Pererenan day around Paparempa
Paparempa sits in Pererenan, so start with hotel prices and pick a base near the black-sand beach or the cafe strip. Then look at activity packages, since the surf break and a yoga or spa session are easy to add to the trip. Finally, price a car: the rice-field lanes are spread out and Tanah Lot is a short drive away. The three links below go straight to each.
Indonesian food from across the archipelago rather than just Bali, which is rarer on a tourist street than it should be. Paparempa sits on Pererenan's main eat street in a circular two-storey building that is hard to miss.
The samsam guling and the Lombok short ribs are the dishes to build a table on, and the gohu served in crispy cassava tacos is the one that surprises people. It suits a group ordering widely. We would come with four and treat it as a tour of the country rather than a single meal.
