Whet your appetite
T
he clue is in the name –
it really is all about the
seafood. There are a
couple of tantalising meat
options but it feels like you’d be
missing the point somewhat.
The seafood is sourced locally
every morning in Jimbaran and
complemented by vegetables,
herbs and salads from the
restaurant’s organic farm in the
mountain village of Bedugul.
The Banyuwangi scallops served
warm on the half shell with Asian
3
salsa was the pick of our starters
and not just because we love
the word. The grilled whole fish
‘Jimbaran’ style was a delight.
Catch of the day on our visit was
the snapper and we also tested
the pan roasted mahi mahi,
which was excellent.
The ‘cuisine de soleil’ is
intentionally light – ideal for
this climate and thankfully that
enabled us to have room for the
Guanaja chocolate fondant to
finish off a great experience.
Bottle of wine:
550,000 – 3,500,000 Rp++
Bottle of Bintang: 40,000 Rp++
The Verdict
Sardine matches up to the very
best on the island in terms of
culinary offerings, but allies them
with an arena that you’ll fall in
love with; a place that combines
the best of nature’s design with
nature’s finest foodstuffs.
