Plan a Better Ubud Evening with Dinner and Cocktails at Blado

An evening in Ubud does not always need a complicated plan.

You might finish your day of exploring, look for a comfortable place for dinner, choose a local dish you have been wanting to try, and stay a little longer for drinks and conversation.

That is where Blado Restaurant fits naturally.

Located on Jl. Raya Pengosekan, Ubud, Blado brings together Balinese and Indonesian dishes, western food, small bites, desserts, coffee, mocktails, and cocktails in a warm and natural setting.

For guests looking for dinner and cocktails Ubud, the experience can be as simple as:

Dinner first. Cocktails after. No need to rush.

The important part is that you decide the pace.

Here is one practical way to plan your next evening at Blado.

Start with a Local Dinner

If you are visiting Bali and want your evening meal to include local flavor, Blado has several Balinese and Indonesian dishes to choose from.

The menu includes:

• Nasi Campur Bali
• Nasi Campur Iga
• Nasi Goreng Pork Belly
• Ayam Panggang
• Bebek Bakar Hitam
• Crispy Duck
• Mie Blado Bali
• Sate Ayam
• Sate Lilit
• Pork Rib
• Beef Rendang
• Soto Ayam

The selection gives you different ways to approach local food.

You can choose a rice-based dish.

You can focus on grilled food.

You can choose slow-cooked beef.

You can try duck.

Or you can explore local dishes through satay and other preparations.

For a first visit, two dishes stand out because they are confirmed Blado best sellers:

Nasi Campur Bali and Nasi Goreng.

Start with Nasi Campur Bali

If you want variety, Nasi Campur Bali is an easy starting point.

The dish brings several components together in one plate, including steamed rice, crispy fried pork belly, chicken sate lilit, shredded chicken with sambal matah, fresh urab, grilled prawn, and onion crackers.

That gives you several textures and local flavors in one order.

You get pork, chicken, seafood, vegetables, sambal, and crackers without needing to choose each component separately.

For travelers who want to explore a broader range of Balinese flavors during one dinner, this can be a practical choice.

It is also visually distinctive because the different components remain visible on the plate.

Choose Nasi Campur Bali if:

• You want several local components together
• You like variety
• You want to try more than one protein
• You are looking for a strong introduction to Blado's local menu

Or Keep It Simple with Nasi Goreng Pork Belly

Maybe you want something more familiar.

In that case, Nasi Goreng Pork Belly is another confirmed best seller.

Blado's version uses Balinese-style seasoning and pork belly, served with crackers and acar.

The basic idea is familiar: fried rice.

But the local seasoning, pork belly, crackers, and acar give the dish a more distinctive direction.

It can be a comfortable choice for international visitors who want to try Indonesian food without choosing something completely unfamiliar.

Choose Nasi Goreng if:

• You enjoy fried rice
• You prefer a more focused main dish
• You want pork belly
• You like familiar food with local seasoning

The choice between Nasi Campur Bali and Nasi Goreng does not need to be complicated.

If you want variety, choose Nasi Campur.

If you want a familiar rice dish with a local direction, choose Nasi Goreng.

Want Something Other Than the Best Sellers?

You do not have to order a best seller.

Blado's local menu gives you plenty of other choices.

Sate Lilit

Choose Sate Lilit if you want a grilled local dish.

Blado prepares it with minced chicken and a homemade spice mix, then grills it and serves it with steamed rice, two types of sambal, fresh urab, and onion crackers.

Beef Rendang

Choose Beef Rendang if you want slow-cooked beef.

It is prepared with coconut milk, lemongrass, galangal, and spices and served with steamed rice.

Crispy Duck

Choose Crispy Duck if you are looking for a different texture.

The marinated duck is cooked slowly until tender, then fried until crispy and served with steamed rice, sambal, onion crackers, and fresh urab.

Pork Rib

If ribs are what you are looking for, Pork Rib gives you a more focused protein option.

These dishes give your local dishes Ubud dinner a different direction without moving away from Blado's Balinese and Indonesian identity.

Dining with Someone Who Wants Western Food?

Not everyone at the table needs to order local food.

Blado also has western dishes including:

• Grilled Chicken
• Grilled Tuna
• Tenderloin
• Carbonara
• Bolognese Pasta
• Pizza
• Chicken Parmigiana
• Burger

That can make dinner easier for couples and small groups with different preferences.

One person can order Nasi Campur Bali.

Another can choose Carbonara.

Someone else may prefer grilled tuna.

You can still share the same table and continue the evening together.

That flexibility is useful when planning a couple dinner or casual group evening.

Add a Small Bite If You Want to Take Your Time

If dinner is more of a social evening than a quick meal, you can also start with something small.

Blado's small bites include:

• Chicken Kebab
• Corn Fritters
• Lumpia
• Dumpling
• Samosa

You can order one to share while deciding on your main dishes.

This creates a simple rhythm:

Small bite → dinner → dessert or drinks.

There is no need to order everything at once.

Take your time.

Talk.

Choose your main.

Then decide what you want next.

Save Room for Dessert

If you still have room after dinner, Blado offers several desserts.

Options include:

• Pandan Pudding
• Black Pudding
• Dadar Gulung
• Mango Sticky Rice

For guests who want something connected to Indonesian flavors, Dadar Gulung offers coconut sauce, crepe, and palm sugar.

Mango Sticky Rice gives you glutinous rice with fresh mango and mango smoothie.

Pandan Pudding combines pandan with mango sauce, rice flour, and vla.

Dessert is optional.

If your evening plan includes cocktails afterward, you may prefer to keep the meal lighter.

Again, the advantage is flexibility.

Then Choose Your Evening Drink

After dinner, the focus can move from food to conversation.

This is where Blado's cocktail selection comes in.

The restaurant offers both classic and signature cocktails.

The current signature cocktail selection includes:

• Elderflower Negroni
• Honey Garden
• Coconut Mojito
• Summer Forest
• Espresso Java Martini
• Clover Club

Each gives you a different flavor direction.

Coconut Mojito

A natural choice if you like a tropical direction and a refreshing cocktail style.

Elderflower Negroni

A better fit if you enjoy a more classic and bitter cocktail profile.

Espresso Java Martini

A coffee-forward option that can work particularly well after dinner.

Clover Club

A classic cocktail choice for guests who prefer familiar cocktail styles.

Summer Forest

An option for guests who want to explore the signature side of the menu.

You can also ask the team about the current cocktail selection and choose based on the flavors you normally enjoy.

You do not have to choose based only on the cocktail name.

Build Your Evening Around the Flavor You Want

A simple way to choose is to think about your dinner first.

Rich Local Dinner

If you choose Crispy Duck, Pork Rib, or Nasi Campur Bali, you may prefer a cocktail that brings a different flavor direction to the table.

Familiar Dinner

If you choose Nasi Goreng Pork Belly, pasta, or pizza, you can choose a cocktail based simply on your personal preference.

After-Dinner Dessert

If you are moving toward dessert and coffee flavors, Espresso Java Martini may be an option to consider.

Tropical Evening

If you want something more refreshing and tropical, Coconut Mojito may suit the mood.

There is no universal pairing rule.

The goal is to choose something you enjoy.

Do not assume the promotion price, hours, or other mechanics beyond the approved Buy 1 Get 2 Cocktails wording.

Why It Works Well for Couples

A good couple dinner does not necessarily need a complicated restaurant experience.

Sometimes you want a comfortable table, good food, and enough time to talk.

Blado's menu makes it easy to build that kind of evening.

Start with a small bite.

Choose one or two main dishes.

Share if you want to try more than one local flavor.

Add dessert if you still have room.

Then choose a cocktail.

The approved direction for the Buy 1 Get 2 Cocktails promotion also focuses on sharing, conversation, and staying longer rather than creating a loud party atmosphere.

That fits Blado's overall positioning.

It is a restaurant.

Not a party bar.

The evening can remain relaxed and food-focused.

The Warm Ambience Is Part of the Plan

Food and drinks are only part of the evening.

The setting also matters.

Blado has a warm and natural ambience with wooden details, tropical greenery, open-air dining, warm lighting, and local design accents.

The atmosphere is relaxed and comfortable while still feeling considered.

That makes it suitable for dinner, casual gatherings, coffee, and cocktails.

Have dinner.

Watch the restaurant atmosphere change.

Stay for drinks.

Continue the conversation.

The space gives you room to do that without making the evening feel rushed.

Keep the Evening Flexible

One of the best things about planning dinner at Blado is that you do not need to decide the entire evening before you arrive.

You can start with dinner.

Then decide whether you want dessert.

Then decide whether you want coffee, a cocktail, mocktail, or another drink.

This is especially useful for travelers.

Maybe you have another plan later.

Maybe you want to stay longer.

Maybe you are tired after a full day exploring Ubud.

Maybe your original plan was only dinner, but the atmosphere makes you want to sit for another hour.

You can decide as the evening develops.

Or leave when you are ready for the next part of your evening.

The schedule is only an example.

Your actual evening can be earlier, later, shorter, or longer.

You Do Not Need a Big Night Out

The best part about a Blado evening is that it does not need to become a party.

The brand direction specifically avoids loud bar and party language.

Instead, the cocktail experience is about couples, friends, sharing, conversation, and staying longer.

That creates a different kind of evening.

You can enjoy one cocktail slowly.

You can choose a mocktail instead.

You can have coffee.

You can simply order dinner and leave.

The restaurant gives you choices without telling you how your evening should look.

Drink Responsibly

If you choose an alcoholic cocktail, keep the evening comfortable and responsible.

Choose based on your preference, know your limits, and avoid driving after drinking.

You can also choose a mocktail, coffee, tea, juice, or another non-alcoholic beverage.

A good evening is not measured by how many drinks you have.

It is about the food, the people at your table, the conversation, and the atmosphere.

The cocktail is simply one part of it.
