What’s the significance of it? Well, every dish is meticulously prepared according to passed-down recipes, thus authencity is guaranteed. Secondly, since The Cuisine is run by a community – not by a corporate – the food prices won’t shock your wallet - or your spouse. Lastly, and for me most importantly, tourists can directly contribute to local’s economy boost. The Cuisine is a place where pro-people tourism go yay.
Food-wise, the keyword at The Cuisine is “family”, with most dishes served in large portions suitable for group dining. Indeed, family is overall philosophy in The Cuisine, with food served in homemade way and hospitality that treat guests like long-distance family members who just come home after a long time. Along with what the chef describes as “traditional Bali taste”, it essentially brings authentic Bali recipes to the table.
A perfect example is Lobster Bakar Bumbu Bali (grilled lobster with Bali-native ingredients). It is made of wild lobster captured on the same day as day it cooks then marinated in rich Bali-native spices and herbs, popular for hot taste yet ambrosial scent. “Jaen Sajan”, as the Balinese said.
