Introduction
-
Below you'll find what
could be Bali's only objective restaurant guide. We say objective
because Island Wave does not accept
any advertising, sponsorship or freebies. We live here and when
it's our money on the table this is where we spend it. Please be
advised that when we say a restaurant is moderate or expensive it
is in relation to other restaurants in Bali. Scale is $
(Inexpensive) to $$$$$ (Very Expensive). With no further ado, the
knife and fork please.....

Whilst is
quite easy to eat very nicely (and cheaply) in Bali, most of that is
due to the intense competition of too many restaurants serving too
much the same menu. With not much menu differentiation restaurants
in Bali have, until recently, competed solely on price. Good for the
hungry yobos but where to go for a nice evening have something
different and get good value for the money ?
BTW, good value does not always mean
cheap. |
