Meet Mie was right next door to my hotel, and after walking past it several days in a row during my last stay in Ubud, curiosity finally got the better of me and I went inside. I didn’t regret it for a second. It was a fantastic little place with friendly service and good, affordable food, and after that first visit, I found myself coming back almost every day.
The menu at Meet Mie focused on small bowls with noodles, soup, and different toppings. There were also a few more random items on the menu, like sushi and cheesecake, which I politely ignored and never felt any real urge to explore.
Most days, I ordered one of the small noodle bowls that came with soup on the side to pour over, and every single time it was really good. To drink, I usually went for pineapple juice or lemon juice, though they also offered more elaborate drinks if that was your thing. The atmosphere was relaxed, the food came out quickly, and the portions were just right. You left satisfied, but not weighed down.
It was often busy, and when it rained, getting a table right away could be a challenge. The crowd seemed to be mostly people like me, staying in Ubud for longer stretches of time. On rainy days, if it was packed, I would usually just head back to my hotel room and wait until the worst of the rush had passed.
