editor’s note

B

ali is well known for its beautiful nature and exotic culture which has made it a very popular tropical destination in South East Asia. Many foreigners came to Bali as tourists searching for a getaway and to

feel the warmth of sun by the beach, and some saw a good opportunity to live here and start a business. The way I see it, Bali is also an island of opportunities, and welcomes people regardless of their race or ethnicity – but only the positive souls with creative minds and a passion for change. Maybe it is the vibe and atmosphere of living in Bali that awakens our creativity and triggers us to create wonders, and its not difficult to see out of the ordinary works when you walk around Bali, from art to fashion, design, architecture and of course food! For foodies, Bali is a great place to explore, because there’s always something special and unique to be found. Thanks to the local farmers, restaurateurs, and of course chefs with a drive to innovate, there’s no boring story when we talk about the Balinese culinary journey. In this issue we celebrate the innovators, the tireless, ultra-motivated, passionate people who successfully put the hip into the Bali culinary world. A. A. Sg. Nanda Chrisna

In our main feature we look at five chefs making a difference on the island with their inspiring creations (p.22.) Our cover story features one of our favourite restaurants, the consistently excellent, truly world class Teatro Gastroteque where chef Maxie Millian is now leading a team of young, dynamic Indonesian chefs (p.38.) We also catch up with renowned Chef Stefan Zijta, who led the pre opening/opening team at Alila Seminyak (p.26.) In Canggu we meet the passionate team behind the newest vegan venture, Peloton which successfully challenges any preconceived ideas you may have that healthy food is boring (p.34.) At Cascades, Ubud we discover Chef Nic Vanderbeeken, who combines French techniques with Indonesian flavours to dazzling effect (p.42.) Meanwhile, Executive Chef Ben Cross at Ku De Ta shares his inspiration and his favourite dishes in Behind the Taste (p.30.). “Curiosity about life in all of its aspects, I think, is still the secret of great creative people”, quoted from the notable Leo Burnett. So we salute all those with curious minds, and salute 2016, a new chapter for an awesome future!

e all get a little carried away with eating over the Christmas period, so January is the perfect time to think about losing weight and maybe detoxing. Here are some healthy tips to usher in the new year.

Drink eight glasses of water a day – water helps flush out toxins, hydrates the skin and boosts immunity.

Eat a healthy breakfast like fruit + yogurt, oatmeal with some nuts, or a hard-boiled egg and a green juice.

Eat smaller amounts! Each meal should fit into the palm of your hands although this doesn’t apply to vegetables.

Eat fruit or vegetables with every meal.

Remember that cutting out carbs altogether is actually counterproductive. Instead, avoid white bread and eat whole grains like brown rice, oats, and quinoa.

Eat roughage like beans, nuts and fruits like apples which are high in dietary fiber. pattern from www.subtlepatterns.com



musings

Over the last few years Bali has morphed into a culinary destination, boasting truly world class restaurants serving up imaginative, cutting-edge cuisine. Alison looks at some of the chefs making their mark on the island.

European cuisine is created using only ingredients sourced locally. “Why import everything?” asks Plasmeijer. “It doesn’t make sense to bring in food frozen, it can’t be as good as food at the source.”

Abu Dhabi. Serving as a chef judge in Indonesia Master Chef, Hells Kitchen Indonesia and Top Chef Indonesia, he is keen to foster fresh young talent and the kitchen at Teatro Gastroteque, which he founded, is filled with dynamic young chefs. The Teatro menu is French with an Asian twist, while his newest restaurant offering, Blanco par Mandif in Ubud has the aim of, “Putting modern Indonesian cuisine on the map.” A culinary craftsman of the highest order, for Chef Mandif it’s not just about the taste, but also the presentation. This is food as you have never seen it before, a dazzling display of gastronomic genius.

He also favours liberal use of herbs and spices. “When used properly spices have a healing effect, as they are rich in vitamins and fibre – as well as being highly flavourful.”

Chris Salans Mozaic Ubud

Many attribute the birth of the gourmet dining scene in Bali to Chris Salans, creator of Mozaic Ubud, Mozaic Beach Club, and Spice. “I was brainwashed by foodies,” says Salans of his parents. His preparations meld his French heritage and classic training with the exotic flavours of his adopted island home. The spices, herbs and fruits of Indonesia serve as inspiration. At Mozaic, Ubud he shares his discoveries and subsequent creations through a

ranslating loosely as ‘sacred table,’ Mejekawi spreads across the top floor of iconic beach club KU DE TA. Small and intimate, with

sweeping views across the Indian Ocean, the restaurant is essentially a chef’s table experience, with a gorgeous open kitchen taking centre place – both literally and figuratively. Shiny black granite counters, wood fire grill and an enviable collection of copper pots and pans, create the kind of kitchen that chefs dream about, and it comes as no surprise to learn that Executive Chef Ben Cross was involved in every aspect of the restaurant from concept to design, to execution. He describes the degustation menu – served with a choice of 5 or 12-courses – as “Indonesianinfluenced European-style.” Combining exotic island flavours and cutting edge technology, his daily specials often incorporate his favoured Balinese ingredients, including ginger blossom, palm hearts and nutmeg fruit.

“I never looked at cooking as a job, more as a way to see the world,” says Chef Ben, and he takes much of his inspiration from travels, with regular trips overseas to keep his finger on the global pulse.

“The food I create is a reflection of my love of travel,” he adds. Take the Black Cod, inspired by the famed black miso cod served up at Nobu in New York. He applies a south east Asian touch, replacing miso with a handcrafted chilli paste richly flavoured with onion, garlic, tamarind, sugar and fish sauce. Marinated for 24 hours the fish is then cooked over the grill, to impart a smoky, slightly bitter caramelised taste. “The flavour that you get on a wood fire can’t be replicated by any other cooking technique,” he says.

turmeric, spice is the flavour of ginger, sweet from shallot, and sour from lime. These basic roots and fruit are also used as part of the offerings. The use of roots and spices for seasoning in Balinese cooking is not only to enhance the flavour of the food, but for health reasons. Our Balinese ancestors discovered the healthy benefits of roots and plants thousands of years ago. For instance, turmeric is the best natural antibacterial. In Tenganan village, turmeric has been used for centuries as the remedy to be applied to wounds. Another example, ginger, appears in almost all Balinese cooking, especially the ones containing oils and fat, because ginger releases hot energy that works as a fat burner. So, as long as consumed in moderate amounts, Balinese cuisine can be considered as food that promotes health and balance in our digestive systems. As for food enthusiasts, a visit to the island is incomplete without tasting true Balinese cuisine. Must-try’s are Babi Guling – a whole roasted pig cooked with base gede; Lawar Nangka, a mix of young jack fruit and minced meat seasoned with base genep; and Ayam Betutu, braised whole chicken soaked in base genep. Even though the seasoning is all the same, the end result is guaranteed to be amazingly different. Dewi

traditional recipe

Base Genep Base genep is Bali’s authentic seasoning and forms the base of many different dishes. Base genep consists of several kinds of roots that have grown on the island for thousands of years. The seasoning not only gives rich flavour to the food, but also contains healthy benefits. It can be made in a large amount and then kept in the fridge for a month and used to cook beef, pork, fish and veggies. It also works with any type of cooking technique, such as braising, steaming, frying, and grilling. By making a large amount of seasoning, flavoursome meals can be enjoyed everyday without doing the hard work every time. Another plus point is that this seasoning doesn’t contain artificial preservatives. Dewi

Ingredients: 100gr red shallots

½ tsp freshly ground black peppercorn

6 cloves garlic

¼ tsp nutmeg powder

1 thumb-sized piece of ginger

¼ tsp cumin powder

1 thumb-sized piece of lesser galangal

1 tbsp charred shrimp paste

1 thumb-sized piece of galangal

4 bay leaf (daun salam)

1 thumb-sized piece of turmeric

salt (to taste)

4 stalks of lemongrass, use only the tender white part

4 tbsp coconut oil for stir-frying

50gr cayenne pepper

3 tbsp water

10gr red bird’s eye chili 4 candlenuts

Method: Mix all the ingredients, except the lemongrass and bay leaf, in the stone mortar and grind them with stone pestle until they become a paste. Preheat the coconut oil in a skillet until it is hot and small bubbles start floating to the surface. Reduce the heat and then add the seasoning mixture, lemongrass, and bay leaf to the skillet. Stir the mixture occasionally, and pour two tablespoons of water into the skillet while stirring the mixture. The seasoning is ready when it releases an appetising fragrance and the oil decreases significantly.

F A R FROM THE M ADDE NING C ROW D Grand Istana Rama Hotel is one of Kuta’s best known establishments, and a much loved favourite for its returning guests. We revisit this charming old-fashioned hotel that provides a serene shelter in the heart of bustling Kuta Beach.

P

artly hidden behind tall big trees, the peaceful resort boasts one thing that can rarely be found in newer hotels, an abundance of space. Arriving at the semi-

open air hotel lobby, I can’t help but feel nostalgic for Kuta of the old days. The staff greet us warmly and are more than happy to give us a quick tour before we begin our pampering treat of massage and lunch. Walking through the lush tropical garden, we appreciate the charm of being far from Kuta’s maddening traffic and unsheltered heat. The hotel is equipped with four meeting rooms, a spa, a restaurant and a pool bar dedicated to spoiling guests. First thing first, we head to the spa where we let go of ourselves in the next hour, under the delicate yet firm touches of experienced therapists. By restoring our bodies and our minds, we also restore our appetites. Luckily, Samudera International Restaurant is open and offering an all-day dining option. Walking to the front part of the hotel, we pass the large pool with its inviting blue water and dozing couples. A large group is fiercely competing to refill their cocktail glasses. “We also have plenty of programs for our guests to get to know Bali better such as cooking classes, Balinese dance classes and a Bahasa Indonesia class,” explains our waiter who seats us near the pool.

I haven’t even mentioned the tempting Steak Night on Tuesdays and the Surf and Turf Menu every Thursday, where diners get to pick fresh seafood of the day, and grilled meat. The Red and White Sangria that I am sipping with its strong blend of red wine, vodka and Triple Sec proves a perfect companion to watch the sun go down. Megibung (Nasi Campur) turns out to be a wonderful authentic dish to be had with its delicious condiments. I particularly enjoy the beef rendang and grilled fish with raw shallot sambal.

Time to Say Cheese Long thought to be impossible to produce in the heat and humidity of Bali, Bali-Alm manages to provide the market with locally-made, high quality cheeses and yoghurt from their factory in Jimbaran.

Established in 2012, Bali-Alm produces soft cheeses and yoghurt with strict German-style efficiency and standards. The founder and owner of this innovative venture is a Stuttgart-born automotive engineer, Christoph Kaffanke, who, with his partner, Fera started the company based on one simple premise. “At that time, there was no local enterprise that produced high-quality cheeses, and yet the demand was very high. I decided to give it a try, and built our own machinery,” says Christoph. His innovative products immediately garnered loyal private customers as well as culinary professionals from hotels and restaurants all over Bali.
