Where to Buy Salt bread in Bali: From Home Bakeries to Popular Cafes

Where to buy salt bread in Bali

We’re not exactly sure when salt bread went from just another bread to the bread everyone suddenly couldn’t stop talking about, but here we are – Bali is officially in its salt bread era, and we totally get it. If you haven’t tried one yet, salt bread – also known as shio pan is basically a soft, fluffy, light bread with a buttery centre, a beautifully crisp outer layer and bottom, and, traditionally, a sprinkle of salt on top. Simple, but we must admid that once you’ve had a really good one, it’s hard to look at regular bread the same way again. Even croissants are starting to feel a little…yesterday (désolé!).

Bali’s bakers have been getting creative with filings like pistachio, ham and cheese, and ube, though the plain one is already so good. Aaand since so many of our friends are on the hunt for their next salty, buttery fix, we’ve rounded up some of the bakeries around Bali serving them – so go forth, eat bread, support these talented bakers, and if you’re here long enough, why not try them all? *wink wink

Rotikoo

This home bakery in Denpasar is making all kinds of delicious salt bread, and you can order online through the link on their Instagram. There’s the OG, cheesy, garlic melt, sausage & cheese duo, egg salad, chicken floss, and “Grandma’s Pocket” that is chicken mince topped with extra mozzarella. And if you’re more into sweet stuff, they’ve also got almond and cream cheese Biscoff – whoah!

Rona Manis

This pretty little cafe has branches in Denpasar and Sanur, and it’s a nice spot to pop by for coffee, daily pastries, and, of course, some salt bread. Their options are pretty simple – the OG, garlic cream cheese, and almond. But sometimes simple is all you need, especially when paired with a good cup of coffee and a slow morning.

Toko Roti Kerabat

“Toko Roti” means bakery, and “Kerabat” means relatives or close friends, which feels pretty fitting for a cosy local bakery like this. They do coffee and a rotating selection of baked goodies, so you better try their coffee salt bread soon, just in case it’s not around for much longer. But don’t forget the classics: OG, garlic cheese, truffle, kimcheese, beef ham & cheese, cheese crumbs, and abon (meat floss) seaweed.

Ara Baked

Another home bakery that takes pre-orders online, and if you’re the adventurous type when it comes to flavours, good news! Ready? Try reading all of these in one breath: plain, blueberry cheese, truffle butter, double choco, milk cream, chicken floss, garlic cheese, salmon mentai, truffle egg mayo, smoked beef cheese, kaya butter, ube lotus kunafa, ube matcha, and ube mochi. I know, hehe. And if you live or happen to be around Canggu on Sunday, you can also find them at La Brisa Market.

You probably know Raia for their brownies, cookies, and pretty hampers – but did you know they make salt bread too? They’re only available for pre-order every Tuesday and Friday, so set that alarm if you don’t want to miss out on all that buttery goodness. Pick from the original, chocolate, Biscoff, egg mayo, or chicken floss.

Available in small batches for same-day pick-up or by pre-order, you can go savoury with the original, garlic cream cheese, chicken floss mayo, or smoked beef and cheese, or switch things up with the sweet ones like coffee butter, milk cream, kaya almond, and Nutella almond. Yum!

Based in Legian, these home bakers are usually busy whipping up cookies, hampers, and custom goodies for events and celebrations. But now they’ve joined the salt bread club too. Their lineup includes original, chocolate, garlic cheese, smoked beef and cheese, butterfloss, and…the Dubai pistachio kunafa flavour that has also been so popular lately!

Note to self: writing this at night, near bread time, I mean…bed time, is probably not the smartest idea because now I’m sitting here thinking about all these delicious, buttery salt breads and getting reallll hungry, haha! Oh well, the sooner I sleep, the sooner tomorrow comes, and the sooner I can order my way through Bali’s salt bread scene! Hope you find this list useful, and stay tuned for more because the Kata Bella team is still searching for even more salt bread spots around the island. Happy bread shopping!

Bali Brunch: A Slow Saturday Done Right at Waatu's Otsumami

Bali Brunch: A Slow Saturday Done Right at Waatu's Otsumami Bali is small, but also big. It always feels like if you live in one neighbourhood here, everywhere else suddenly becomes far - especially if you're based in "Republic of Canggu". On a very unplanned weekend, a friend of mine who had just left her job and is currently thriving in her free-time era had this idea of spending a Saturday in Ungasan for an all-you-can-eat Japanese brunch at Waatu. Yes, Ungasan. Because when you can do anything and go anywhere, why not choose somewhere that takes a couple of hours (or more) to get to, right? Hehe. I’d heard of Waatu before, but all I really knew was that it’s an open-flame grill restaurant with a cliffside view. After a little Instagram research, I found out they also have a nice pool, and there’s no gas stove involved in the kitchen - everything runs on fire and charcoal. What a traditional, elemental way to cook! Very interesting. Also, I love Japanese food. So I thought, okay - let’s go! You may also like this article: SKAI Bar & Grill in Legian: Same Soul, Refined Experience My first impression After the long journey from Canggu up to Bukit (the hilly area of Bali), we were rewarded with a calm and peaceful atmosphere -like finding a little cliffside nook with a view that made me realise I might have been taking Bali for granted just because I live here. We took a moment to soak it all in before heading to our table. At this point, I was getting very excited to eat. The warm and welcoming vibe that greeted us as soon as we arrived A table full of Japanese favourites Move over avocado on toast! Because this is more my kind of brunch. Upon arrival, you will be given a list of menu to choose from. We started simple with a bowl of edamame, then little by little we moved into the otsumami (traditional Japanese savoury snacks). You can expect Japanese comfort food like kaarage chicken, yakitori, pork & chive gyoza, pork ribs (this was one of the highlights!). There was also a lighter option like seaweed salad and chawanmushi. If you’re feeling a bit extra, you can also upgrade your set with dishes like lobster tail and flank steak. The brunch runs for two hours, which I think is enough to enjoy the food without rushing. Everything was delicious, but make sure you save some room for dessert! You may also like this article: Restaurants in Legian and Seminyak: Kata Bella's Picks 2026 The Vibe Continued If you’re not in the mood for dessert, you can round off your brunch with one of their cocktails instead. Luna di Limo, a lime aperitivo with lychee liqueur, is a great choice if you like tropical fruit flavours. Or be adventurous with a touch of Indonesian flavour, like pandan mixed with vanilla in Verdant Silhouette. Fun fact: their drinks are made in-house using their own fermentation techniques, making them anything but ordinary. The whole Saturday then carried on with a live DJ playing coastal house and upbeat tracks into the afternoon. It had been a while since I had a Saturday like that - slow and unrushed. A curated selection of their in-house fermented drinks The Verdict So...the big question, was the trip to Ungasan worth it? Haha, yes! Definitely. I’d do it again in a heartbeat, and next time I’m bringing more of my girl friends along for the ride. By the way, if you come for the brunch, you also get complimentary access to the pool overlooking a cliffside view of the sea, so don’t forget to bring your swimmers, sunnies, books, and other pool-day essentials. Thanks for reading - hope this inspires your next weekend getaway to Ungasan. More Information 📍Location: Waatu 🌐 www.waatu.com 📱@waatu.bali ☎️ Reservation ⏰ Otsumami is on every Saturday, 11am to 4pm 💰 IDR 550,000++ per person (food only)

Koyotake Ramen: A Comforting Homemade Ramen in Yogyakarta

“No more Instagram ads, please. I’m scared too many people will come,” laughs my dad, the man behind Koyotake Ramen, Yogyakarta. While most warung owners dream of bustling crowds, he prefers a steady stream of loyal customers who enjoy his homemade ramen. Tucked away in a quiey village in Bantul, Koyotake serves Japanese comfort food with heart – think rich Tori Paitan broth, savory Shoyu, and crispy gyozas. From Five-Star Kitchens to a Small Ramen Dream Back in the day, my dad worked in the fast-paced, always-hectic F&B department of various 5-star hotels. After years of juggling high-pressure environments, he decided to retire early in his 40s. His dream was simple: to run a small ramen shop like the ones he admires in Japanese travel documentaries. Small but mighty. Why ramen, though? And where did his love for Japanese food come from? To be honest - I’m not sure, haha! But after a few failed attempts (as all good stories go), he made that dream a reality. Koyotake Ramen's Tori Paitan - Creamy Chicken Broth Ramen in Yogyakarta You may also like this article: Pastries, Passion, and a Little Bit of Magic at Theo’s Wife Lois It all started in a food court in South Tangerang. At first, it struggled to attract customers, so he made the bold decision to close the outlet and reopen it at home. I thought it was a better idea - not only would he save on rent, but he’d also have more flexibility and time to rest. With his passion, my mum’s support as sous chef and logistics manager (seriously, who’s better at market shopping than the ibu?), and my contribution as the self-proclaimed marketing manager, the little house warung began to gain traction. They started with a simple menu; Tori Paitan and Shoyu ramen, and slowly expanded as the warung grew in popularity. Tan Tan Men, also a favourite menu among customers You may also like this article: Goolali Gelato Bar & Pâtisserie - Semarang’s Sweetest Escape Last year, my parents decided it was time to leave the hustle and bustle of city life and settle in a small village in Yogyakarta, where my mum originally comes from. Can’t blame them - city life can be overwhelming, especially at their age (honestly, even at mine). They reopened their ramen warung at their new house in Bantul, and it didn’t take long for them to regain popularity. One day, a well-known food blogger secretly stopped by, had dinner, and posted a Reel on Instagram. For weeks after, the warung was packed with people queuing for ramen, haha! Talk about a good problem to have, right? But now, they’ve settled into a nice rhythm, constant customers daily, not too crazy, just the right amount. So, thank you, Mr. Blogger, for bringing the unexpected blessings on my parents’ small business! If you ever find yourself in Yogyakarta and crave some home-cooked Japanese comfort food, make sure to visit Koyotake Ramen. They have added more on the menu, and don’t forget to try the gyozas! Must-try Dishes Tori Paitan Ramen: Creamy chicken broth, slow-cooked for 8 hours. Tan Tan Men: Spicy ground chicken ramen – a crowd favorite! Homemade Gyozas: Perfectly crispy, filled with juicy chicken. Visit Koyotake Ramen 📍 Address: Jl. Nitiprayan No.56, RT.02/RW.20, Jomegatan, Ngestiharjo, Kec. Kasihan, Kabupaten Bantul, Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta 55182⏰ Open Tue-Sunday: 5 PM - 10 PM Ps. First person to guess what “Koyotake” means gets a free dinner on me! 😉
