Warung Beta is a food stall located in the less-traveled west part of Ubud. It offers you the breath-taking beauty of Ubud countryside at a very close proximity to an expansive paddy field.

My travel partner Ulai was overjoyed when we got there. I just watched helplessly as she dashed right across the paddy field, much to the amusement of the people around us.
.
Even to get to the toilet requires you to walk a little bit across the paddy field. Surrounded by beautiful paddy, it was without doubt one of the most picturesque toilets I’ve ever seen.
.
Ulai wasn’t really happy about the idea of taking a picture with a toilet in the back ground but then with a beautiful view like this, who cares about the damn toilet right? 😀
And I tell you – the smell of air when you’re in the middle of a paddy field in Ubud is just so refreshing and probably – don’t mind my exaggerated term – rejuvenating? Hehe. Yeah, rejuvenating. I call it the smell of countryside. It is the kind of smell that I’d long to inhale every time I’m forced to walk in the suffocating air of the Kuala Lumpur. I was just a perfect place to do a little bit of meditation. Heh.
.
And that smell of countryside – together with the green and beautiful surrounding – and a cup of hot Kopi Bali to sip over – it was when PERFECTION is defined at its best.
We could see the farmers preparing to go home after a day of hard labor and some of them herding their bibiks (ducks) back to the barn. They must be hundreds and hundreds of them all quacking at the same time sending a pandemonium of noises across the paddy field. It really was so fun to watch.
.
I wish we could stay there longer but then any good thing has to come to an end, whether you like it or not.
We returned to Jati Home Stay and Gallery to get prepared for dinner. It would be our last dinner in Ubud so we wanted to make it a little bit special. Special indeed, there couldn’t be any other place to make it more special than this place called Bunute. All in next post.
