Nalu Bowls Seminyak: Macaronis vs. Uluwatu, Add-On Math, and Why Your IG Pic Needs Extra Fruit
11:28 AMI was supposed to post this earlier, but November me nearly deleted my entire camera roll. I salvaged a few photos (heroic). Posting before my phone changes its mind again.
Why Nalu (and which location)
Nalu Bowls, Seminyak (second shop; first was at Single Fin which is far from my cave).
People often Gojek it, but I wanted the walk-in vibe and a bowl that hadn’t done a motorbike stunt.
Macaronis — Rp 50.000
Blend: papaya, mango, dragon fruit, pineapple, strawberry, apple juice + granola. Texture icy, flavor fresh; the granola is crunchy-toasty, not that dusty oatmeal look you see in some pics. Price point: this is the cheapest bowl on the menu tier.-
Uluwatu — Rp 65.000
Blend: dragon fruit, banana, papaya, raspberry, apple juice. Photogenic, tangy-sweet, very “post me.”
Add-ons (a necessary evil for the IG look)
Banana + Strawberry: Rp 5.000 each (mine)
Mango: Rp 5.000 (friend)
Add-ons run about Rp 5–10k. If you skip extras, your bowl won’t look like the Instagram you screenshotted. (Not a complaint; just physics.)
Vibe, service, delivery vs. dine-in
Chill, compact, quick counter service.
In-person wins for texture (toppings stay crisp, blends stay perky). Delivery is convenient, but my crunch has trust issues.

Tips to win your bowl
-
Order the base, then add 1–2 fruits max so flavor doesn’t turn into a group chat.
-
Ask for granola on top last if you’re taking photos (stays crisp).
-
If you like creamier, pick blends with banana or add peanut butter (if available).
-
Go earlier to dodge the noon blender symphony.
