Ayam Betutu Khas Gilimanuk Bali

Ayam Bertutu Bali 01

Looking for tantalizing spicy chicken in Bali? Then you must try Ayam Betutu Bali! I mean REAL spicy, one grade spicier than the Nandos Peri-Peri Chicken I would say.

Ayam Betutu Gilimanuk (Bali style spicy braised chicken).

Dulang Kafe & Bakery, Kuta Bali

Dulang Restaurant Kuta Bali 01


Located next to the entrance of Matahari Departmental store, this is a restaurant worth trying out when you do your shopping along Kuta Square. It can get really crowded in the evenings, but I found most of the diners would prefer to sit at the open air area, probably because you can feel the vibes of Kuta Square.

Jimbaran Bay Seafood

When people talk about seafood and sunset in Bali, the first place that comes to their mind is Jimbaran Bay. Am I right? But in this post I'm not going to talk about the sunset, in fact, I'm going to share about the sunrise and breakfast at Jimbaran Bay. Hoho~

Surprised? Breakfast at Jimbaran Bay?

Hmm...

Gotcha! It's lunch at Jimbaran Bay.

Marvelous sunshine. Best time for photo shooting. But DSLR requires skill and I'm not mastering it yet. Now I appreciate the excellence of a compact camera. One shot done deal. Especially the vivid colors of my Lumix.

If you're not prepared for this, stay indoor when you're at Bali.

Or bring an umbrella.

Or get a higher SPF sunblock.

I just accompanied my friend Jenny to get the SPF130 PA+++ sunblock last week. She's in Bali now. I don't know if she'd regret for going to Bali because she's so afraid of the sun...

While waiting for our lunch to be served, I took a walk at the beach.

The grill fish was nice. But other than fish, everything else was also grilled. That's the style of Jimbaran Bay seafood. Don't put too high hope as many people thinks that seafood here is overrated. Perhaps... but I still like the fish because though it's grilled it still tastes juicy.

Babi Guling Ibu Oka

Warning!! This is not a halal post. Balinese food is non-halal, and they definitely love pork.

I think the majority who visited Bali would have tried Babi Guling. It is indeed a nice delicacy, crispy pork with lots of seasoned long beans, and served with not-so-spicy chili paste (don't trust me too much when I say it's not spicy... I eat chili padi with rice quite often)

I'm not sure how many other restaurants are famous of selling Babi Guling, but it is pretty easy to find Babi Guling in Bali (not eat-in in restaurants I mean). You see, it is comparable with our Nasi Lemak, you can find it almost anywhere in Bali.

Before we left, another freshly roasted pig was delivered to the stall. Many people claim it as suckling pig, but I was doubtful about it... Roasted suckling pig we used to have in Malaysia is only 1/3 the size of this one. Anyhow, the most important thing is the food is worth for money right? It is.

Babi Guling @ Bali

Starving in the office... I wish I'm now in Bali tasting Babi Guling! **drooling~~

Alright it's just a short post. Stealing 3 minutes from my rest to complete this post. Will post more about Babi Guling next time.

P.S. To Muslims, this is non-halal food.

Balinese loves crackers!

I've been crunching a lot of crackers when I was in Bali. Day and night, almost every meal, except breakfast. *Am cruching my fav deep fried pork skin.*



You can find all sorts of crackers sold at food stalls.



Including my favorite deep fried pork skin. I tried it once, got it from my Philippino-Chinese mix student last time. His mother is a Pinoy, and every time when her sisters came visit them from the Philippines, they would pack a whole box of "junk food" and send to KL. It's really cheap in Bali, probably less than a Ringgit for a packet.



And for all dishes served, you will find prawn crackers. No doubt that the fried rice in Bali really taste good, the meat were very juicy. Worth to try!







I will write a review on Babi Guling rice in the coming post. Anyway most of the food in Bali is non-halal because more than 90% of the residents are practising Hinduism.
