Bali with its lush landscape, rich cultural traditions and deep-rooted spirituality has long lured those in search of the exotic. Emerging in recent years as a bona fide gastronomic destination, it now also draws those looking for fabulous food and memorable, one of a kind dining experiences.
The island’s tropical beauty stimulates the senses, stirs the imagination and inspires culinary creativity, while the fertile volcanic slopes of the hinterland produce an abundance of fresh ingredients that breathe life into the farm to fork philosophy. The finest imported ingredients from seafood to beef are flown in daily, but the locavore movement is also becoming a force to be reckoned with. Chefs from around the archipelago have descended on Bali, bringing the secrets and the exhilarating aromas of the spice islands with them, while international chefs are so married to their jobs they take on a beach restaurant instead of a beach house.
Our Destination Editor, Alison Bone, has been a long-term resident, documenting the ever-evolving dining scene as a food writer and editor for various publications. For Luckie Bali EATS & DRINKS she has harnessed the wisdom of local hospitality experts to help select the finest 52 dining and drinking experiences across the island.
“Bali has become a true world-class dining destination. Not only are we spoilt for choice when it comes to so much fabulous food, but we are also treated to incredible venues, from bohemian beach clubs to old school Balinese restaurants in the rice fields, to the coolest cliff top bars boasting the latest in cutting-edge design. These days Bali has something for everyone, and this guide has been carefully compiled to point you in the right direction. Life is too short for ordinary dining experiences,†says Alison.
Bali EATS & DRINKS is a compact guide, presented as a deck of cards revealing 52 of the best culinary experiences across a myriad of styles, cuisines and prices. Two additional ‘Luckie Seven’ cards detail the most spectacular sunset spots and tastiest local warungs. So, pick a card and plan a day trip east to Bali Asli for its traditional megibung feasts and Mount Agung views. Dress to impress for a night out in one of Seminyak’s top restaurants, discover Ubud’s answer to a sundowner at The Sayan House, or join an up-for-it sunset crowd on the cliffs at Omnia.
Our guides are 100% independent and curated with quality and innovation in mind. Bali, like many tourist destinations, is typically advertorially flavoured but not this guide. Nobody pays to be included. Our curators have carefully selected astonishing venues that are unique to Bali to make your trip more memorable & remarkable.
