New Luxury CRAFTED LUXURY...

Alila Purnama, translated as The Full Moon, will be the most luxurious liveaboard Phinisi ship in Asia, providing ultra-modern and relaxing accommodation for up to ten guests. The 46- metrelong Alila Purnama consists of three decks and has been built by hand in the traditional style of a Phinisi, as used by the Bugis seafarers from south Sulawesi in Indonesia.

Onboard are five well-appointed cabins including one master suite, designed to indulge guests further with large wraparound windows offering 180-degree views of the ever-changing yet incredible landscape.

grown up with, could possibly work for Seminyak. With that in mind I started to interview family members for their best recipes, proudly incorporated some of my own recipes too. The Nonya Laksa Singapura is my paternal grandmother’s family recipe – yes our family sold laksa at a food stall in the neighbourhood coffee shop. Speaking of which if my relatives were alive today they would be happy to know that this family recipe has made its way across the ocean to hip and happening Seminyak …… a fact I am most proud of.”

Says Sean Lee.

“ B A B A’ S ” The hu’u group has been elegantly wasting devotees and party goers from around the globe for the past eleven years and they’re pretty damn good at it. Seeing the time for a change in this year of the Snake, a fresh and authentic dining scene is being created, paying homage to owner Sean Lee’s SouthEast Asian roots. This style of cuisine has long been anticipated by Asian and welltravelled peers, to have Asian Master chefs creating the menu means everyone in or visiting Bali gets to experience its authenticity and diversity for the first time.

Baba’s is the creole of South East Asia.

Owner Sean Lee says “to understand the meaning of Baba, all you have to do is check out a famous song “Rasa Sayang”,

to see how passionate the tri-nation cultures feel about their past, and if you care to ask anyone from either place, they’ll all try and claim the song to be from their own mother land. At the end of the day does it really matter who wrote the song? The fact is, there is a pride for a bygone era that a mishmash of cultures shares, which is why we’ve named the restaurant Baba’s.”

Traditionally Baba’s were super cool Chinese Peranakan guys dressed in the latest trends, involved in the arts and keen entrepreneurs during colonial times. Lee says “Baba’s are everywhere in the world to this day and from every culture – in Asia for example, you can be Chinese or Tamil and have a Scottish, Portuguese or English surname,

this is true to a Baba’s heritage. What we want to do is give everyone the right to be proud of their own mix, because it’s something we all essentially share. It’s a global thing.”

“For the design we are creating a chic Alice in Wonderland with Peranakan elements, enhancing the exterior with a sexier, lighter, and totally unique feel that will definitely be inviting” says interior designer Caroline Usher.

The culinary aspect of Baba’s is being actively explored by Lee who has painstakingly chronicled all the recipes he had grown up with. “On a hunch I realised that perhaps some of the recipes that I had

With Sean actively searching out old recipes and working closely with chef’s that have honed their skills in the in “the way of the wok”, rather than those who aspire towards Michelin Stars, expect a fresh perspective.

“First in line of consulting Asian Master Chefs is Singaporean and has won gold and silver medals for his culinary skills at the 6th World Championship of Chinese Cuisine. He’s worked at long list of top end restaurants and hotels, so we’re excited.”

Says Sean Lee. What to expect on the menu? For starters, try the Grilled Sambal Fish on Banana Leaf, Crispy Chicken with Spicy Chilli Sauce or the Beancurd with Achar Thai Sauce. Mains include Laksa of course, Caramelized Coffee Pork Ribs, Singapore Lobster Noodles, and Burnt Wok Style Beef crispy noodles. Of course past hu’u grazers will be able to select a steak or some other old time favourites, we’re just raising the culinary bar to ensure a more diverse experience.

All you need to remember as you wander into the wonderland is that Baba’s is the creole of the South East Asian heritage, a celebration of our own mish-mash selves.

COCOON BEACH CLUB Is there a better way to spend your day than laying back on one of our luxurious champagne beds or in your VIP Cabana, sipping a cocktail and sampling something from our delicious grazing menu, while overlooking our stunning infinity pool and across to Seminyak Beach?

A night spent at our Beach Club will have you happily listening to the beats spun by our resident DJ’s or one of many international acts from our poolside DJ booth. We are also slated to host some of the hottest events throughout the year. Cocoon Beach Club is where you want to be anytime of the day or night.

ALILA PURNAMA A LUXURY VOYAGE My mother always told me to be the captain of my own ship. Now, the idea almost seems plausible. Did you ever wake up thinking, wishing you could have it all? See the world for yourself? Wishing you could have a lie-in and at the same time, watch everything set into motion? Well then, set sail and let loose. Literally. Alila Purnama brings a different kind of grandeur-living. And we mean it this time. You are in for the ride of your life. Alila Purnama, unlike any of her sister resorts, is actually luxury resort set on a cruise. An old-style elegance revisits the interior and exterior designs of the aforementioned vessel. The 46-metre long Alila Purnama consists of three decks and was impressively built by hand in the traditional style of Phinisi ship. Exclusively, the decks could accommodate up to ten with sixteen serving crews aboard. With furnitures custom-made from teak, one would expect only Alila’s famously plush suites.

Alila’s first sailing took off last December, from Raja Ampat in Indonesia’s West Papua province.

Setting out from Sorong, Alila Purnama took it’s guests to a highly magical experience visiting some of the archipelago’s very best.

The 46-metre-long Alila Purnama consists of three decks and has been built by hand in the traditional style of a Phinisi, as used by the Bugis seafarers from south Sulawesi in Indonesia. In keeping with Alilas’s emphasis on style and sustainability, the furniture throughout the boat is custom-made from teak, rattan and other locally sourced materials from Indonesia.

Tourism is at an all time high in Bali and savvy travelers are searching for a unique way to enjoy this island paradise. The island is known for its villa culture and has a multitude of options for every type of traveler. However, for a truly individual Bali villa experience Ametis Villa will not disappoint. Located in the up-and-coming Canggu area, Ametis, which is Indonesian for Amethyst, feels a million miles away from the hustle and bustle of tourist hotspots Kuta and Seminyak, but is actually just a short distance from the action. The tranquil setting allows you to observe the daily rhythms of Balinese village life and the breathtaking natural beauty of Bali, whilst enjoying the luxury of a 5 star lifestyle villa. And when I say 5 star I mean

50

true indulgence including a personal butler, the on site, award nominated Ruby Spa and gourmet Eternal Restaurant. Ibu Akiko, the General Manager says “Most of our guests don’t leave the villa after they check in.”

From the moment you walk onto the property you feel the tension of travel being released from your body. The sounds of stone fountains, chirping birds, relaxing music and the gentle breezes from the rice paddy fields fill your senses with serenity. The lobby, which was built to resemble a Balinese bale banjar, the place where Balinese communities meet and mingle, is filled with comfy couches and plush pillows that welcome you to relax and leave your troubles at the door. One of the extraordinary features at Ametis is the home

like feel created by the asymmetrical design of the decor. It’s these intricate touches and the mixture of modern architecture with Balinese sensibilities that make the villa so incredibly special.

Walking down the wooden pathway that leads to the 14 private villas, each named after a different precious gem stone, you become surrounded by a variety of lush tropical plants and stone walls that are taken from the traditional Balinese house concept.

Batu paras kerobokan is the Indonesian name of the stones that cast ever-changing shadows as the sun rises and sets. But don’t be fooled by the ‘old Bali’ feel, each villa has a spacious landscaped compound, a

51

generous sized swimming pool and space to soak up the sun, an integrated living and dining environment, a home entertainment system with 250 movies, satellite channels, an Apple ipod and ipod docking system, a gourmet kitchen, air-conditioned bedrooms, spa styled en-suite bathrooms, electronic safety deposit box, IDD telephone, and wireless internet connections. Every guest will also receive luxury benefits which include a 30 minute massage, daily breakfast, 24 hours transfer and pick up service, personal butler, sunset cocktails, unlimited coffee and tea, freshly baked cookies, and a complementary daily restocked mini bar.

You can feel the love and care put into every villa as well as the love for preserving the

52

natural landscape and ecosystem, but also the acknowledgement that 5 star luxury should flawlessly combine environmental and cultural conservation with modern life.

Each visitor to Ametis should have their own personalized experience, so your butler will contact you even before you arrive. He will introduce himself by email and arrange the villa and an itinerary to your tastes by asking you a few simple questions to know some of your preferences. The butler leaves nothing to chance, by even sending a photo of him, so a familiar face will greet you at the airport when you arrive. The personal Balinese butler will adapt quickly and anticipate all the guests’ wants and needs.He can even

arrange a “precious dine on the beach,” picnic lunch, candle light dinner, lead you on a rice field bike tour or fisherman village experience where you can get fresh seafood and have it prepared any way you like by the chef. Many of our guests become good friends with their butlers and keep in touch even after they return home. It’s all of these little details that set this experience apart from others.

You can also celebrate one of life’s most treasured moments at Ametis Villa as they now offer intimate wedding ceremonies.

They will arrange special garden rehearsal dinners, or catered private dinner parties at the Grand Villa, designed to fit your personal style.

Ametis Villa is a brand new villa development in the area. Taking a "home-alike" concept, Ametis Villa offers a guest experience that is intimate and discreet while providing the highest level of service.

Whether you are visiting Bali for a short break or a once in a lifetime occasion, you can be sure that just like it’s namesake the gemstone amethyst, Ametis will calm the mind, restore tranquility and encourage balance, patience and peace.

While the passage of time has wrought certain changes, the essence of Bali, the very soul of this heavenly place is unchanged, Ametis Villa is the place.

Alaya Ubud In love with nature.

Exchanging your vows here in Bali does not necessarily mean you’ll have to follow the footsteps of the hundreds of couples before you. Forget the sand, the beach and the ocean. The view here in Alaya is nothing less than an infinitely serene row of paddy rice fields. Picture the bustling sounds of the city gradually drifting away as you come across this uniquely enchanting venue. If it’s a discreet intimate fair you are seeking, Alaya Ubud fits the bill. Combining contemporary sophistication and the environment is easier said than done. But Alaya pulls it off with an overwhelming unorthodox structure that strikes visitors with a lasting first impression. With an exterior of great wonder and elegance, Alaya is well attuned to mother nature and has been designed to follow the contours of the natural landscape. And it truly is soothing here in Alaya and surely, there can be no other way then to marry the man or woman of your life in a timeless place.

With just a day to go, you’ll want to cool yourself, either with a rejuvenating dip in Alaya’s sleek swimming pool, a stroll out in the open, paddy rice fields, or a choice of pre-ceremony body and beauty treatments at the renowned DaLa Spa. Various packages awaits your arrival here in Alaya’s famous DaLa Spa (also available in Villa de daun, Legian) such as the buzzworthy Royal Wedding Ritual. This traditional custom was evidently once the privilege of royal brides in the ancient palaces of Central Java. Bringing a little culture into play, is perhaps the little touch you need to make your wedding day just a tad bit magical. The treatment includes a soothing foot wash, herbal body scrub, yoghurt body polish, milk and flower bath, and a Balinese massage leaving the skin with a radiant glow, well polished just before the big day.

Alaya believes a wedding is a heartfelt occasion that should reflect the individual style of a couple as they embark on a journey of shared destiny. Therefore a great deal of time and effort is put to ensure that every wedding here, is a highly personalised experience to always be treasured. With a team ready to tailor your special day with precious memories, the place almost annoyingly reeks of pure, gentle happiness. From the ceremony, catering, wedding cake, to flower arrangements, they’d have it all personalized and subtly organized. You won’t even have to break a sweat. But again, we have Alaya’s calming nature to thank for that.

Alaya Wedding Alaya is quickly becoming a perennial favourite for weddings with it’s unique, luxurious open area that gives a couple a chance to open a new chapter in their life with a spectacular, grandeur, yet simplistic artistry. There’s something about Alaya’s main pool that shines above all. It’s unique design sees itself elongated with shapely curves being a parallel to the sloping contours of the surrounding landscape. And here, there’s ample space to hold a vividly captivating outdoor ceremony for you and your wedding party. Of course, fine food will be the highlight of any wedding in the island. This takes place in the Petani restaurant and is for up to 120 guests. Alternatively, it could be a semi-casual cocktail gathering you are after and this is just fine. Alaya too boasts a multi-purpose Balinese pavilion available for a private and more minuscule celebration amongst close family and friends.

107

Even with a serene nature, it is almost as if the place has a life of its own. And when it comes to that one special day, Alaya comes springing, offering distinctive memory in each and every corner.

Khayangan Estate Seventh Heaven

Khayangan is derived from the sanskrit word for ‘seventh heaven’, which is perceived by some as ‘a state of intense happiness and bliss’, and the Khayangan Estate Villa is just that, pure bliss. The Tatler U.K. sings its praises stating “there is no better villa in Bali”. No easy feat when you consider where the property is located. Situated in Pecatu, which has been referred to by those in the know as the ‘Beverley Hills’ of Bali, it is surrounded by multimillion dollar residences and luxury resorts, yet manages to stand out among the crème de la crème. It’s not surprising that countless celebrities have chosen the Khayangan Estate as the fairy-tale setting for their dream weddings.

The first step onto this property leaves you awe-struck. Atop a 170 meter-high cliff top with jaw-dropping 180 degree views of the azure Indian Ocean and pristine white sand beaches below, you feel as though you’ve entered another world. When you’ve finally recovered from the view, you’ll be awed by the lush and artistically cultivated gardens surrounding the property. It’s easy to envision your wedding festivities taking place on these gorgeous grounds with a legendary Bali sunset as your backdrop.

Another of the villa’s lure lies in its unique design. The estate is comprised of carefully restored grand antique Javanese wooden homes, which were historically reserved for nobility - very apropos for the couple looking for the royal treatment. Wooden floors and artistically carved wood paneled walls are fused with modern architectural elements like glass walls and rich furnishings to create a surreal blend of past and present. Two of the villas have bathtubs sunken into ponds and flanked by waterfalls, I kid you not. If one chooses this phenomenal location to tie the knot, the entire property will be yours to house family and friends. We are assured that the villa provides a secure and private paparazzi-free environment, whether you are a celeb or not.

It’s the combination of a stunning natural environment, a commitment to cultural heritage and conservation, and Balinese charm and hospitality, that sets this piece of heaven apart from other nuptial venue contenders.

114

Khayangan Estate Wedding Every aspect of your wedding is treated with the same level of care, thought, and attention to detail as the estate itself. From professional make-up and hair stylists for the bride and her maids of honor, gifts for members of the wedding party, to wedding dresses or traditional Balinese wedding costumes should that fit your vision of your special day. It’s refreshing and impressive to learn that the Khayangan Estate, aside from catering to an elite clientele, is committed to conservation and is environmentally minded. They use reclaimed teak wood, implement eco-friendly practices, and contribute to the local community and economy by employing staff from the surrounding area.

If it’s a wedding fit for a king and his queen that you are after, then look no further than the ‘seventh heaven’ that is Khayangan Estate.

Mozaic Beachclub THE FINER SIDE OF THE WORLD

DEEP OCEAN SLIPPER LOBSTER Kaffir lime and shaved fennel © Mozaic Beachclub, Photo Philippe Heurtault

Chef-cum entrepreneur Chris Salans, who happens to own two of Bali’s top notch restaurants, Mozaic Beachclub (Batu Belig) and Mozaic Ubud, must have been proud of his brainchild. The former, has everything a food cognoscenti could ever dream of.

128

View from dining room

An impressive display of artistry is complimented with a real Balinese hospitality, as a valet awaits your grand entrance. The establishment is divided into two with the first storey harboring a chic and urban lounge for guests wishing to sip on some of the island’s best cocktail innovations.

We started with one of the heavy favorites; Mozaic Kalamansi. From the get go, it was easily the best cocktail mix in Bali. Be wary though; for as the night draws on, you’ll want more of this. The New York Jungle is also something out of the ordinary.

Nothing can make the night any better but a no-nonsense 6-course degustation meal.

We came upon the semi-outdoor dining upstairs, an upscale entity supported by strong antique stone pillars. Our night was just about to take off. And so far, it has been nothing but smooth. As expected, we had a little bit of a difficulty when it comes to the menu. Seemingly, we were spoilt for options and needed some time to digest our options. Not being able to come to a concrete decision, we settled on the chillingly gracious 6-course tasting menu. To start it off, we had the salmon with ginger soya, a perfect way to get your tongue accustomed to their standards in my opinion. Then, came the Deep Ocean Slipper Lobster. My first and lasting impression of the dish, was

Dinning room at Mozaic Beachclub

that my waiter wasn’t telling tales when he said that the house serves some of the freshest produce in the island. Fresh and what a treat it was.

CHAR-GRILLED FOIE GRAS with Orange rocks © Mozaic Beachclub, Photo Philippe Heurtault

The seared seabass fillet was definitely a show-stopper, but the masterstroke came in the form of an elegantly put out honey glazed pork belly. The best thing about it? It’s sweet, tingling sensation lingers, for a while at least. It is only apparent that an impressive display of culinary skills, is something that is uncommon in the everyday showcase of Mozaic Beachclub. My night was not to be done, just yet. As we would next have the butter roasted squab. With a heavy load already overwhelming

my figure, I dug in my heels and persevered. The tender, mouthmelting sensation is there still. And better yet, you could kind of feel the butter amalgamating with all your senses. For dessert, we each were rewarded a serving of Egg Nogg and Mozaic’s Clay Chocolate Kaffir Lime.

The sorbet accompanying the Egg Nogg was rejuvenating to say the least, after a heavy (actually wellportioned) 4-course meal prior to my dessert. Now, make sure you do not slice open your Egg Nogg. Instead, give it a knock or two and it will gently and almost magically crack. It might as well be Christmas morning all over again. Ironically, an emptiness began to feel my stomach as I realized

my evening is almost coming to an end. Not one of us wanted this to end. One taste of this distinct, classy air, and you’ll want to keep coming back for more.

To compliment the brilliant food and atmosphere, the service is verging on exceptional. If one is to look for a more private compartment, Mozaic Beachclub has a VIP dining area a little secluded from the rest.

A ROMANTIC AFFAIR WITH THE FINER SIDE OF LIFE

2500 Balinese batik stamps which decorate CIRE restaurant.

Going into Cire, Alila Villas Uluwatu, I knew the drive was going to be a long one. But it was indeed worth the time as we were treated to one of the most stunning views Bali has to offer and perhaps some of Bali’s finest dishes.

132

Mahi mahi, grilled, with green curry paste, kaffir lime rice and 15 pickles.

Knowing that the restaurant is part of a cliff-hanging property that is Alila Villas Uluwatu, one would want to come a little earlier to catch a glimpse of the blue oceanic water down under.

After all, who could resist a late afternoon cocktail. Some of Cire’s house favourites includes it’s mesmerizing Very Berry Mojito and t h e L e m o n g r a s s Va n i l l a t i n i .

Speaking of house favourites, it’s current kitchen commander, is a favourite amongst food connoisseurs.

Executive Chef Stefan Zijta brings a taste of home, that is the Balinese ingredients to highly sought French cuisines. The young Dutch chef has previously made a name for himself

in Jakarta, as the executive chef of Shy. Creativity is like an ever-flowing entity as Stefan goes on to integrate regional produce into the finer side of life. Prior to his arrival in Jakarta, Stefan made his footings as sous chef at Vermeer, a two Michellin starred restaurant in Amsterdam.

Gazing at the interior of Cire’s private dining room, one could catch a frenzy from the shockingly beautiful and elegant batik prints on the wall. It was a sight to behold indeed. The private dining area is an ideal place to hold a down-to-earth, no-nonsense yet fancy dinner function.

CIRE terrace, overlooking the Indian ocean.

Crispy pork belly, curry-orange reduction, crayfish tail and steamed banana.

Cire has most of it’s seatings outdoor, with the best ones facing the theatrical view of the waters from high above.

We have yet to fully grasp the entirety of it all even when our amuse bouche arrived on the table. We knew than that nothing less than amazing was to be expected of the mahi-mahi to come. Grilled with green curry paste, the dish presents an astounding 15 pickles for you to mix and match.

That’s right. And it confuses you briefly as your tongue endeavours to accustom itself to the different tastes, but it was like being spoiled for options.

the case here. I had all the time in the world and the momentary pauses in courses were almost bordering on pleasant. In any case, it was not as if there was a long wait to complain about. Not at all, as everything was well spaced out. Our next surprise came in the form of the famous Crispy Pork Belly coming along with a delectable crayfish tail. Cire’s Crispy Pork Belly is rightfully one of it’s signature dishes as it stands out to be one of the best, and most succulent you’ll find in Bali. Not to mention that the steamed banana too, made an excellent company.

Waiting for your next meal usually reminds me of the anxious queue for a haircut at the barber’s. This was not

After my huge craving for some delectable mains were satisfied, my tongue yearned for something sweet, and out of the box. Cire’s Chocolate

Ganache made ended it all in brilliant fashion. As clichéd as this sounds, the chocolate had literally melted in my mouth, disintegrated into excellence. And if your taste bud needs a break from all that richness, there is the home made praline ice cream. It is as if, each and every course is part of a jigsaw puzzle and Cire has quietly pieced them together.

By night, the restaurant transforms itself into a chic, fine dining couture. Again, as the sun sets, Cocoon becomes one of the most sought-after chillout places in town. Yes, all this may seem unorthodox when you put it all in one venue. But the equations works perfectly fine.Les parfaits.

When you step upon the lobby style rotunda that greedily invites you to the

“Cocoon”, you’ll have little to no choice but to be left mouth agape by it’s beautiful ambiance thanks mostly to it’s unique style of design and architecture.

Explore the main dining area, take it all in. And when you’re done, go past, way beyond the Miami-inspired bar and there you’ll find the jewel of the crown; Cocoon’s poolside area. Cocoon too has a private roof terrace ideal for weddings and private functions.

Sit back and enjoy yourself on one of Cocoon’s personal daybeds, sipping on a glass of Daiquirior Margarita.

Ultimately, this is why Cocoon has been the talk of the town for the past few of years. And is still is generating buzz. A mesmerizing brunch overlooking the beach, or by the pool. And if you are

Roof Top Private Dining

Pan seared local rock lobster tail, king scallop open ravioli, pineapple and coriander salad, coconut lemongras emulsion

looking to indulge your whole day cocooned in this beautiful venue, you might want to check out their extensive grazing menu by the pool, the dining areas or one of Cocoon’s very own private Balesby the pool .. Knowing what you want is a little difficult when there are many award winning dishes to choose from Cocoon’s dinner menu.

They truly are something to behold.

From delectable mains to sensational desserts, coffee and cognac. The likes of Cocoon’s famous Seared Foie Gras, with pink peppered Brioche, orange and carrot puree lavender marmalade glazed in coco jus. For the mains, you’ll find wonderful dishes to marvel at; Cocoon’s Slow Cooked Nori Wrapped Huon River Salmon is flavoured with spiced quinoa, gingered apple puree, pressed apple and

salmon pearls. Or if you are into a more meaty sensation, go for the Char Grilled Free Range Mt. Grambie Lamb Rack with Sunchoke cream, smoked aubergine, goat cheese agar and warm olive dressing. If you are a dessert kind of person, you won’t miss a chance at having Cocoon’s very own BuburInjin, a native Balinese dessert. Why not bring a little taste of home into a World Class entity right? After all, you are in Bali. At the last bite, you’ll come to a realization that there needs to be much more to your night than just a fancy dinner. How about keeping it classy by venturing upon some of the cigars from one of the most well stocked Humidors on the island.

To keep the island talking, Cocoon’s

creative events team has tirelessly organized and hosted some of the best parties the island has seen. Countless DJs and entertainers from around the globe have had memorable moments gracing their poolside entertainment area. When going to Cocoon, it is rather a difficult task to decide on a time to visit. From a breezy mornings, lazy afternoons to classy dinners or dancing poolside into the early hours of the morning.

Warisan Restaurant

A FINER CONTEMPORARY EDGE TO CLASSIC FRENCH CUISINES

Extensive wine collection at beautifully designed wine cellar and a perfect bar to watch sunset..

A tight-knit community is in place and we all have our own little favorite spot.

What we are talking about here, is not simply another “culinary gem in the heart of Seminyak”.

It is arguable the Founding Father of all culinary gems in Seminyak.

Roasted Giant Wild Java Tiger Prawn Perfumed with Spices Butter,and served with crashed potatoes

For twenty one years, celebrities from all over the globe have had a memorable experience here in Warisan. Warisan was the first fine dining restaurant to stand alone, outside the protection of a FiveStar hotel. An amazing feat to say the least. Back in the old days, Warisan stood tall, becoming one of the first few fine dining institutions here in Bali. It all seemed like a great fit. People were tired of having to go through top-notch hotels to have a casual yet classy night with beloved friends. Today, with rampant competitions in the industry, Warisan sets itself apart from the rest by everchanging it’s concept to accommodate the changing trends of the coming generation. After a major remodeling, Warisan took the island by a storm.

Despite the long and winding road it’s been through, Warisan’s creations remain verging on perfection. It’s comprehensive list of dinner menu is characteristically French as we have clearly established.

Chef Mildani has made sure Warisan’s longevity in the market is one to be envied about. Chef Mildani, believes in selection the best and only the best ingredients, and is much admired for his fresh, and vivid imaginings. “There is no compromise regarding quality,” he assures. At Warisan, we are committed to using the finest and freshest ingredients sourced from all parts of the world,” he remarks. “Great importance is also placed on beautiful, creative presentations employing varying food textures and colors.”

Al fresco dining are overlooking to rice fields, bar and lounge.

Thus Warisan’s cuisine, while built on a solid foundation of traditional French and Mediterranean cooking, nevertheless show a contemporary, light feel. Here the focus is on superior result in traditional dishes with a modern twist.

Chef Mildani recently added an Indonesian dishes at the ‘Heritage Menu’card.

Duo Tuna Tartar in Sesame oil with Avocado, Tuna Tataki with Kaffir Lime Sherbet

Firstly, tuck into one of their signatures, the Crispy Gyoza, dumplings. For a more immersive experience try their Drunken Lobster Ravioli in Lobster Bisque.

Goodluck trying to locate another restaurant serving a champion Lobster Bisque. And then there’s the outlandish Roasted Lobster Tail giving out an exotic vanilla aroma, served with vegetable tartar and caramel ginger.

In the mains section, you’ll find many ways to revel in their famous Marinated Lamb Chop together with cumin yoghurt and mint served with Quinoa and herbs.

For a full taste of classic French cuisine, indulge in their Duo Pan Fried Foie Gras on vanilla rhubarb chutney with spices coulis black truffle pesto, pata negra belota ham. To go into details, in duo Foie Gras, your palate is blessed with the opportunity to try the two best ways to eat Duck Foie Gras: The terrine is stuffed by figs cooked in red wine, on the side accompanied by the Crispy Nori Seaweed, an astonishing combination, the Pan Fried Foie Gras is atop the rucolla and apple salad glazed with hot honey spices dressing and in the middle just a mango coulis enhanced with ginger, to present more flavours.

This might all seem foreign to you. But isn’t that the point of fine dining? Having what you don’t normally have in your own kitchen? There were no hits and misses. It pretty much is a smooth and consistent flow of elegance. The high life is what it is here. A variety of cuisines to suit all tastes and preferences. A trip down to Seminyak is always an interesting experience and we have Warisan to thank all that for.
