PLACE AN ORDER FOR OUR 6/2 POP-UP

Pop-Up Info & Ordering

SELAMAT DATANG!

From a driveway pop-up to the LA Times 101 Best Restaurants, Bungkus Bagus has been driven by a longing to share the food of our childhood overseas. For us, there’s a singular joy in savoring warm rice, salty fish and a spoonful of sambal on the steps of our dad’s carving shop in Ubud. We’ve dreamt of a bridge between our two worlds, a way to bottle that bliss. Through our pop-ups and products, we've made that vision a reality. We hope you enjoy our love letter to Bali, to the people and place that shaped us. 

Terima kasih dan ayo makan!

How do pop-ups work?

We pop up every 2-3 weeks in our Glendale driveway. During a pop-up week, pre-order opens on Monday at 6 PM and closes Thursday at midnight. You’ll place an order for your food, then come pick it up anytime between 4:30 - 6:30 PM on Friday. The location address will be shared in your confirmation email.

What's With the Name?

Bungkus (boong-koos) = "wrap/package/to-go"
Bagus (bah-goose) = "good"

We make delicious Indonesian goodies that come in beautiful packages.

    Tender coconut chicken curry, simmered for four hours

    Fried soy bean cake in a sweet and spicy glaze

  • Sayur Urab

    Long beans and bean sprouts with toasted coconut and kencur

  • Mother-in-Law Egg

    Hard-boiled egg marinated in tamari and topped with chili paste

  • Sambal Goreng

    A taste of our addicting, all-purpose fried shallot, garlic and chili topping

  • Kacang Bali

    Bali-style salted peanuts

  • Abon Babi

    Traditional dried pork garnish

  • Serundeng

    Seasoned, toasted coconut

  • Es Cendol
