Dubbed as the best ribs in Bali, Naughty Nuri’s Warung has become synonymous with its legendary rack of barbecued “wicked” pork spare ribs. Not your typical chic and stylish Seminyak eatery, Naughty Nuri’s on the famous Jalan Batubelig is a street-side smoky barbecue warung, complete with caveman-style slabs of glistening ribs that encourage sticky fingers and the urge to lick your plate clean.
The juicy rib meat effortlessly falls off of the bone, coated in an addictively gooey homemade BBQ sauce with the perfect amount of charring on the outside to give the ribs that delicious smoky flavour. A selection of side dishes are also on offer to accompany the ribs, or simply wash down with one of the “Brutal Martinis”, named by celebrity chef Anthony Bourdain as the best Dirty Martini outside of New York. The martinis are made with 4 ounces of either gin or vodka, shaken at your table as the staff perform the ritualistic song and “piggy-jiggy” dance; it’s no wonder things get a little “naughty” here as the night moves on.
Naughty Nuri’s aficionados can also grab a taste of the original Naughty Nuri’s in Ubud, where the signature ribs and unmistakeable plumes of smoke also grace the streets at the heart of Bali’s spiritual capital.
