Ole-Ole Bali is one of the few places in the Klang Valley that serves authentic Balinese flavours. There are also adventurous combinations of these flavours with western dishes, such as the grilled prawn, squid and fish pasta. 

For something more traditional, the nasi campur served with grilled lemongrass prawns, squid, fish, a choice of beef or chicken rendang and sate lilit is wholly satisfying.
