Kilig Filipino Warung is a Filipino fusion restaurant in Ubud, Bali — a romantic tribute to Filipino culinary culture. The brand embodies the joyful spirit of “kilig” (that giddy, heart-fluttering feeling) through soulful food, tropical ambiance, and heartfelt hospitality. Kilig serves both locals and global tourists seeking a one-of-a-kind dining experience.
The Challenge
The client needed a digital presence built from scratch that would:
Establish a clear and culturally rooted identity
Capture the romantic and emotional essence of kilig
Make the full menu accessible and mobile-friendly

The goal: A website that feels warm, inviting, Filipino, and distinctly Bali-local — without looking like a typical warung or a generic restaurant template.
