About our Tapas Restaurant in Jimbaran Bali

OurConcept

Expect a casual experience both in feel and pricing and totally focused on food: we save on luxurious tableware and never compromise on quality. We offer small portions so you can try more and a unique signature menu meant to be shared.

We start by getting the basics right: the most amazing ingredients carefully selected and sourced exclusively from Indonesia to maximize freshness, support local farmers and growers and showcase the uniqueness of delicious local products.

Chef Kevin studies each ingredient, finds out how it is traditionally used to understand its potential and then prepares it applying western techniques developed through a painstaking international career in some of the world best restaurants.

The vast range of great products available in Indonesia is truly inspirational and works amazingly to create delicious new western dishes. Furthermore, saving on import costs helps us to keep menu prices moderate by Bali standards. Prices start from Rp. 45,000.
