Warung Susu: The very best at Pemuteran

by theo1006

We stayed at Taman Sari Cottages (Pemuteran) and don't like to always dine in. Our first meal outside was a disappointment. Raré Angon homestay and resto is just across the main road when you come from Taman Sari. We found both their food and their drinks tasteless, and got a shrug when we complained!So we went farther afield and with luck we entered Warung Susu: the place looked attractive. We have seldom enjoyed better in Bali, and still favourably priced. Talking with the owner, Ketut Suwitama, we found out why: he doubles as a cook at Matahari, the most upmarket resort at Pemuteran. He also runs a babi gulung (roast pig) warung at Goris (west of Pemuteran), which supplies the babi guling to Matahari resort. When he is on duty at the Matahari, his wife Made Tiarani serves the guests Pineapple-lime mixed juice Rp 5,000. Babi sere Rp 55,000. Babi guling komplit Rp 54,000. Various...

Delicious Onion: Incredibly Delicious

by SFHulaGIrl

I'd heard a lot about this restaurant. Since it was close to my hotel and was supposedly inexpensive, I decided to seek it out. What I found was a funky atmosphere, friendly service, huge portions, inexpensive prices and wonderful food! I regret that I didn't have a chance to go back! I ordered butterfish in an onion/wine sauce served on a bed of spinach, along with a Bintang. The butterfish included steamed rice and a bowl of oniony chicken broth with veggies. My total was 100,000, including tip.

Sardine: Dine With A Rice Paddy View

by SFHulaGIrl

Sardine is a high-end restaurant with a lovely view of the rice fields. I went there twice - once for my birthday dinner and once for Sunday brunch. The sign is very small, so may be difficult to locate. Service is average to good, though the hostess on Sunday had a bit of an attitude. She asked me if I had a reservation, which I didn't. However, there were only two tables of customers; the rest of the restaurant was empty! I did actually eat sardines there and wasn't that impressed. I also had some type of seafood ravioli, which was quite good. For brunch I had the mahi mahi with vegetables and mango salsa (IDR110,000), which was also quite good. I drank a huge Bloody Mary (IDR85,000) while my friend had a glass of chardonnay (120,000). Despite the somewhat higher prices and hint of an attitude, I'd go there again.

Biku: Tea for Two

by SFHulaGIrl

Although Biku is famous for tea, I went there for lunch on a day when I wasn't feeling that well, most likely from something I'd eaten in Thailand over the weekend. Breakfast is served all day and their menu is international (i.e. Indonesian food, burgers, salads, sandwiches, curries, pasta, steak, pies). The restaurant is in a 150-year old teak joglo from East Java. Customers may dine either inside or outside, and there's a reading area. Although there are both solar fans and regular ceiling fans, it tends to get fairly warm inside. Service is very good, portions are huge and prices are average. Traditional afternoon tea is IDR85,000 per person; it includes tea, scones, finger sandwiches, mini spinach quiche and an assortment of sweet treats. The Sparkling Afternoon Tea costs an extra IDR60,000, which includes all of the aforementioned, plus a glass of champagne. The Children's Tea is...

Absolute: Bali Collection @ Nusa Dua

by chatterley

This restaurant serves some Western and Italian (pasta) fare. Like the other restaurants located in the Bali Collection, it also offers happy-hour discounts and promotions. We ordered some pasta dishes (sorry, cannot really remember), and they came with complimentary soft drinks and desserts. Food was ok.

The Paon: Bali Collection @ Nusa Dua

by chatterley

We ate here for our first dinner in Bali for this trip. It serves the usual Balinese fare. We were actually a bit hesitant to eat here as there were not many customers around and we were wondered if their food was good. The chicken soup with noodles was a starter (portion was quite big and filling!), and we also ordered some rice dishes. For dessert, we had ice-cream with banana fritters. The food was quite good actually, so we were surprised by the lack of patronage. The salad bar is also included in the set meal price. Pretty decent food at a good price.

Moon Ice: Bali Collection @ Nusa Dua

by chatterley

This place serves the usual local fare, as well as some grilled stuff. There was an ongoing happy-hour promotion for their grilled seafood when we were there, so I ordered the grilled garoupa (price is determined by the weight of the fish), while hubby ordered Nasi Campur.The good thing about this place is that the food is quite alright, especially the grilled garoupa. After the discount, it was really good value for money.For the not-so-good: the restaurant was not air-conditioned, and there were quite a lot of mosquitoes. We had to use the mozzie repellent quite frequently, especially on the legs. My order also took a very very long time... I think they might have forgotten about my order!

Hanabi: Bali Collection @ Nusa Dua

by chatterley

We decided to go for Japanese food after having Balinese/Western food for a week. The restaurant is air-conditioned (that is important especially after spending one whole day in the hot and humid weather under the sun), but if you want, they also have tables outside.This restaurant seems to be quite popular with tourists. I ordered a Tendon Set (with miso soup, pickles, tempura on steamed rice and dessert). Hubby chose a Oyakodon Set.Of course the Japanese food here cannot compare to what we enjoyed in Japan and Taiwan etc, but it's not bad and it certainly satisfied our craving for some variety.

Cafe Degan: Javenese and Thai Cuisine

by SFHulaGIrl

A lovely open-air restaurant in the Balinese style, particularly in regards to the roof. This restaurant is known for their Javanese and Thai cuisine. Service was attentive, portions were average and prices were average to slightly above average. I ordered the Signature Javanese Iced Tea where the ice cubes are also made of tea (IDR18,000), the Daging Sambal Huau (IDR65,000) and steamed rice (IDR7,500), as well as two cupcakes (IDR35,000 each) and two macaroons (IDR15,000 each) from their bakery. The Daging was a slow-cooked beef dish with chilis; spicy, but slightly fatty. The cupcakes and macaroons were quite average with little taste. If I go again, I'll try the Thai cuisine.
