Pererenan & Ubud, Bali — A new flavor has arrived on the Island of the Gods. Draniki Restaurant proudly introduces itself as the first Belarusian restaurant in Bali, bringing the warmth, comfort, and tradition of Belarusian home cooking to two of the island's most beloved destinations: Pererenan and Ubud. Open daily from 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM, Draniki invites locals and travelers alike to experience a cuisine rarely found this far from Eastern Europe.
Meet the Family Behind the Name
At the heart of the restaurant's identity are three humble but iconic potato dishes, each with its own personality:
- Dr — Dranik, the classic Belarusian potato pancake, made from finely grated potatoes and fried to a soft, evenly textured finish.
- Dz — Dzerun, a heartier cousin made from coarsely grated potatoes, offering a more rustic bite and a satisfying crunch.
- Zu — Zucchini, a lighter, vegetable-forward alternative that swaps potato for zucchini in select dishes, available for a small additional cost.
Guests can spot these three icons scattered throughout the menu, making it easy to choose — and customize — their favorite version of every dish.
A Menu Built Around Belarusian Comfort
Draniki's menu is a thoughtful journey through Belarusian culinary tradition, reimagined with fresh, local Balinese ingredients. The offerings span:
- Savory and sweet breakfasts, including the show-stopping Draniki Benedict — draniki topped with poached eggs, salmon, kale, and mushrooms — and the hearty Big Belarusian Breakfast, a feast of mini draniki, eggs, sausages, marinated vegetables, and mushroom sauce.
- Smoothie bowls and smoothies, all fully vegan, for guests seeking a lighter start to the day.
- Classic draniki and dzeruny, served simply with sour cream or mushroom sauce, alongside heartier mains like Zrazy (potato patties stuffed with chicken, cheese, and mushroom), Draniki Salmon, and Koldyny — traditional stuffed dumplings available with chicken, beef, or pork.
- Belarusian classics with a twist, such as Paparatz-Kvetka (a cheese-and-herb-stuffed cutlet), Beef Stroganoff, and Crepes with Beef Tongue — dishes that speak to generations of Belarusian home cooking.
- A dedicated Kids' Menu, featuring gentle, familiar options like Mac and Cheese, mini Draniki, and a homemade chicken sausage plate, ensuring the whole family can enjoy the experience together.
Every dish is fully customizable, with an extensive list of add-ons — from salted salmon and bacon to mushroom sauce and rye bread — allowing guests to build their ideal plate.
Two Locations, One Warm Welcome
Draniki Restaurant welcomes guests at two locations across Bali:
- Pererenan: Jl. Pantai Pererenan No. 78, Kec. Mengwi, Kabupaten Badung

Why It Matters
Bali's dining scene is famous for its diversity, but Belarusian cuisine has, until now, been entirely absent from the island. Draniki Restaurant fills that gap with dishes rooted in Eastern European comfort food — crispy potato pancakes, slow-simmered sauces, and hearty stuffed dumplings — served in a setting that feels both authentic and effortlessly at home in Bali.
Whether you're craving a nostalgic taste of Eastern Europe or simply curious to try something entirely new, Draniki Restaurant offers a menu, and a story, unlike anything else on the island.
