Experience Rinjani
Food
Lombok cooking is fiery, fresh and built on what grows on the island, from Sembalun's highland farms to the fishing villages of the coast.
Look out for ayam taliwang, grilled chicken with a hot chilli paste; plecing kangkung, water spinach with tomato sambal; sate rembiga, sweet-spiced beef satay; and nasi balap puyung, rice with shredded spicy chicken. On the slopes of Rinjani, Sembalun is known for its vegetables, strawberries and coffee.
Eating at local warung and family kitchens is one of the simplest ways to make sure tourism money stays in the community.
