Bali Part 4

KRISPY KREME !!!!!!








No need much explaination for the best donuts in the world.
Krispy Kreme is in Bali.
Not Singapore not Malaysia but Bali.
hmmmm.
Donut Factory in Raffles City should really stand aside for this fabulous donut maker
Established since 1983 from New Orleans, KK is not stopping anytime but still growing internationally.

Want a KK in Singapore ??
U need a minimum $30kUSD for just bbuying the name.







Bali, Indonesia

Bintang Beer, Bali Part Three

When anyone is in Bali ?
Who can resist their cheap beers ?
So everyday Bintang replaces all kinds of beverage.

The label says "best enjoyed with friends."
enough said this is one of the best refeshing beer around.
Excellent Shit.




Like i said, seminyak is full of upmarket restaurant, cafes, eateries and lounge.
Im totally addicted to this place; KuDeta.
Located right at the long sandy stretch of Seminyak.

Seminyak beach is one of the nicest beach in Bali
Alot cleaner and alot more privacy compared to Kuta.
There is alot of surfing going on the ocean if the swell is good.

In Brazil there is Cafe Del Mar, in Bali there is KuDeTa.
I would really recommend this place.
Pls drop by if you ever visit Bali.

Bali Explosion Part Two

What Bali has alot is nothing but alot of nice scenery
Wonderful air and breath-taking sights
Bali is a city so full of culture and most of the locals are Hindus
Every few metres along the roads, temples can be seen everywhere.
One of the temple open to tourist is a temple located on a cliff
Tanah Lot, the highest temple in Bali.


Tahah Lot is also one of the nicest place to catch a perfect sunset.
But unfortunately when i was there the sky was kind of gray



It's located 16 kilometers west of International Airport Ngurah Rai,
or a 20 minutes drive through Sunset Road.
In front of the Kediri police Station, turn left, and keep following this smooth road.
In less than 10 minutes you will be there. Admission is Rp 1,000.- per person.


Bali is also a very good place to eat fresh and cheap seafood.
Unfortunately when i was there Jimbaran Bay was in renovation.
So i felt kind of sad to hear that.
Jimbaran Bay has a stretch of eateries located along the beach
Each and every stalls there sell lots of grilled fresh seafood.

So while this place is under renovation one of it shop moved over to tanah lot.
So it became a even heavenly place to eat the freshiest seafood.
Located on a cliff facing the sea under a wholelot of starry sky.






So here on the table we have a platter of seafood for two.
We have grilled fish grilled in two kind of sauce, soy sauce and balinese sauce.
We have mussles, lobster,sotongs and prawns.
They are all very fresh but they are not cheap.
Good locations never come cheap.
The food quality is not as good as compared to Jimbaran Bay
I would gladly give this place a miss as there are many better eateries in Bali.

Bali Explosion Part One

Bali is so picturesque that you could be fooled into thinking it was a painted backdrop:
rice paddies trip down hillsides like giant steps, volcanoes soar through the clouds,
the forests are lush and tropical, and the beaches are lapped by the warm waters of the Indian Ocean.
Bali has so much of everything
from nature to culture to religion to accomodation and to food.

When u heard of Bali what kind of food will you be thinking ?
Indonesian Food ? Balinese Food ???
Sad no, apart from local cheap eat warung
a city like Bali has been so much so commercialised till its hard to look for decent Indonesian Restuarant.
The city itself gain 99% of its income from purely tourism.
Therefore from much diversion alot of western cusine can be found in Bali.
This is to mostly cater to caucasians tourists. They have no problem find familiar food of their own in Bali.

In Bali there are many many beautiful architectual.
There will be any roadside warung to upmarket posh restaurant opening in any corner of Bali.
After overcrowding Kuta, many restuarant and potentials boutique hotels and villas are opening up
and manifesting Seminyak.

The first dinner i ate when i reached Bali was at this very famous restaurant at Kuta.
Made Warung.
Established in 1969

>




So how does chinese kind economy food looks like to you ?
So here we are eating this Nasi Campur( mixed rice).
They give a variety of everything on this plate of rice.
Variety like redang,mutton,chicken, fish,veggie etc etc
It cost about $9.

Food Quality : 4/5
Spicy degree : 4/5






We ordered a bowl of mutton meat.
Big chunky delicious mutton and the sauce in the bowl is delicious as well but it can be abit too oily if u intend to drink it like tht. But anyhow, who can resist ?

Food Quality : 3.5/5
Spicy Degree:3/5



Lastly we have indonesian satay.
We saw many people ordering it so we tried it as well.
But the meat was nicely barbequed and the sauce was slightly different from our Malaysia or Singapore kind.
I still like our local satay. Its less dry.

Food Quality : 3/5
Spicy Degree: nil

quiet dinner

And so tonight was dinner at the little corner at Frankel Ave.
I went to Gourmet Plus this evening.
Was a wonderful place to spend alittle time this windy evening.
And so my dinner consist of Mushroom soup, French Fries,Rib Eye Steak in black pepper sauce
and lastly a raspberry creme brulee.

Infact i wanted to visit this place because i have a sudden craving for creme brulee
and since Chocolate Factory was too way beyond for me so i decided to give this place a try.



Service and ambience of the place is good i say.
Really peaceful to just space out and enjoy a quiet dinner
But food quality is only average.
The creme brulee is quite to my liking even though i don't quite eat desserts.

Toast

With the growing popularity of Hong Kong style cafe opening everywhere
finally Singapore's 4th most regonised HK cafe style restaurant after HK cafe at siglap Xin Wang and Tong Shui
HK Kim Gary is opened in Vivo City.
Kim Gary, originate from HongKong has many outlets in Malaysia.
What is the craze about having to eat maggie mee in restaurant ?
Kim Gary has quite a variety of noodle based main course
ranging from Shanghai style, HongKong style(Gong Zai Mien) and korean style spicy noodle.
They serve quite a huge variety of beverage and desserts as well.


What i ordered was a simple condense milk toast with peanut butter.
The quality of the food cannot be matched against the Kim Gary Branch they have in Malaysia.
Toast was not soft enough and the thin hard peanut butter seems to not go well with the bread.
