Pepito’s Cafe: Tuban Bali

Tuban is an interesting place. Ngurah Rai airport is in Tuban, and a selection of large hotels line the beach, along Jl. Kartika Plaza. Riding around Tuban, away from Jl. Kartika Plaza, it becomes obvious that Tuban is a ‘local’ area, by that I mean, densely populated with wall to wall shops that serve local needs. One place that stands out, if you are a foreigner, is Pepito’s Cafe. This European styled restaurant is located adjacent to Pepito’s supermarket. Pepito’s has an extensive menu, and daily lunch specials. Today I went for the Special and it was quite good.
My Special was Cream Soup Dubarry, Chicken Tandoori Kebab, Balinese Safron Rice, Tomato Salad, Marinated Fruit Salad.
