Different culinary cultures have their own specialties bearing their distinctions of culture and climate. Visiting Bali, don't miss sate, the most flavorful dish on the island. Balinese people often eat sate at special parties. The host and his guests sit around a "table" made from banana arecas. Sate is served with fried rice, beansprouts salad, shrimp-chips and crispy roasted soybeans. Whether prepared by a talented chef of a five-star hotel or by a humorous street vendor, the dish always brings you a great dining experience. You will find it interesting while seeing your chef skewer meat, continuously dipping them into sweet soy sauce and skillfully grilling the sate over charcoal. Some restaurants serve sate with the same spicy sauce as Babi Guiling and Bebek Betutu. Cardamon, cinnamon and dill seeds can also be added. Some chefs grind peanuts to make sauce, bringing a distinct flavor. I'm sure that you couldn't handle the wait while watching the skewers of meat being cooked, smelling the sweet odor of burned sugar and feeling the smoke rise from the spit. After a day wandering the romantic streets of Bali, why don't you treat yourself with hot sate or other grilled dishes?
