The extravagant beauty and delights of Bali extends to
its very difficult to find cuisine. Bumbu Bali are delighted to serve you
“only” authentic Balinese cuisine in a traditional crafted village setting. Two
decades investigating and documenting Balinese cuisine are the foundation in
the style of cooking served in their restaurants. To further enhance the
quality of their dishes They spend daily hours at the local markets to source
the ripest fruits, garden-freshest vegetables, and fish that is caught the same
morning. This together with their highly trained service and kitchen team will
ensure a most memorable dining experience.
Over the last two decades Bumbu Bali have spared no
effort to experience and explore Balinese food and every day culture. Countless
market visits and journeys to many villages, homes and ceremonies have set the
foundation to bring to you a part of Bali’s delightful culture that is
extremely difficult to find. No effort has been spared in creating a place of
discovery, friendliness and comfort. It is their aim not only to share with you
the very best food Bali has to offer, but also let you into the many secrets of
a true Balinese home.
The many visits into villages, homes and temples,
together with an endless drive in researching deeper into the food culture of
Bali have resulted in several highly acclaimed publications by Heinz von Holzen
the Godfather of Bumbu Bali. In “The Food of Bali”, “Bali Unveiled: The Secrets
of Balinese Cuisine”, “Feast of Flavors from the Balinese Kitchen”, and
the “Street food of Bali” one will discover most of the secret dishes and
delights served on their menu.
Paon – Kitchen, The heart of the restaurant
The kitchen is usually a fairly simply structure,
normally located in the southern part of the home compound. Earthen charcoal-or
wood burning stoves are built along the rear wall and pots and pans are slung
overhead. Traditionally there would also be a large earth ware water-storage
jar, though a piped in water supply is more common in most areas today. Without
question this is the heart and soul of Bumbu Bali. Here their long time
trained kitchen team carefully prepare all the delicious meals for their hungry
visitors.
Serving Bali’s finest Cuisine
Recognized as the leading Balinese Restaurant on the
island and the recipient of numerous awards, Bumbu Bali is your guide into the
many culinary treasures their island paradise has on offer. Their daily fish
and vegetable market visits are a guarantee that Bumbu Bali serve you only the
finest ingredients found on Bali.
Since opening Bumbu Bali, Restaurant & Cooking
School in 1997 Bumbu Bali have been awarded numerous times as one of the
leading restaurants in Bali. Strangely enough after 14 years Bumbu Bali are
still the only authentic Balinese restaurant in Bali. Unfortunately in Bali’s
mythic culture eating is very much a solitary affair, and locals mostly just
eat to fill their bellies. Then the fact that Indonesia in the past did not
manufacture ceramic prevented people from serving food as the Chinese did for
millenniums. They take incredible pride in presenting to you Bali’s food
culture in its original authentic way. The only alterations Bumbu Bali do is in
the presentation, as they take only the finest ceramics the island’s artisans
produce.
They look forward to take care of you during your escape
from reality.
