Gala Night Dinner

We had our dinner after the island trip at the hotel, and it was a bit of a disappointing atmosphere, since everyone was rushing to eat so that they can do some last minute shopping, as if shopping were a life and death situation for them. But the food is pretty good. Here's what we had:

Salad dishes

Corn and egg soup

Grilled prawn

Broiled broccoli and cauliflower

Steamed white rice

Stuffed rolls (forgot what was inside there)

Braised Snowfish

Some kind of chicken dish (forgot the name either)

Stuffed beef rolls

Assorted fruits

Yummy yummy dessert

The portion that they cooked was a little too much for just us less than 20 people (and also because everyone was too keen on going shopping rather than eating), so we weren't able to finish everything. But the food is really delicious, especially the snow fish, and definitely especially the dessert

Mmmm~~  :d

Lembungan Island BBQ

On the third day of our tour, we were at Pulau Lembungan on an island trip for a bit of R&R from all the touring. Of course, lunch time was also at the island, where it was a all-expense paid BBQ buffet lunch.

Even before the food was even done cooking, there were already a number of stragglers trying to find a line to get into to get the first serving, and when the food was completely done, it was a HUGE ASS line just waiting like carnivores in the zoo to be fed their meat of the day. I almost barely made it into the line and barely even grabbed the meat that I want coz they take their friggin' sweet time to pick and choose and stack their plates with their food. But overall, I survived the line and got my hoard.

Some of the fruits and desserts the gang got for everyone

The food was A+ and delicious as it should, but sadly by the time I'm done eating there is nothing much left for me choose from to eat, so for my second round I got me some chicken wings and prawn. Absolutely worth it.

Dewi Sinta

After touring a couple of temples like Holy Monkey Forest and Tanah Lot Temple, we settled down for dinner at nearby area of the temple we were visiting. This is what they have:

Location: Within Tanah Lot district

Setting: Typical classic Asian restaurant

Random shot

It's a seat meal for everyone with soup, meal and dessert, so this is basically how our food looks like:

The food taste is OK, but not as filling as I hoped, especially when we were given the illusion that we might have some kind of full-course meal in this fancy-shmancy restaurant only to be served with a set lunch that you can pretty much get even in a kopitiam LOL

Overall rating: 6/10

Restaurant Bale Lantang, Pacung

On the second day of our tour, we ate at another mountain top area again, which is called Pacung, but the actual restaurant within that spot is called Restaurant Bale Lantang. Check it out:

My hoard

It was buffet style again just like the first day, and the food is more or less similar, except without the yummy crunchy deep-fried veggies fritters. I only ate one round coz I was just too cold to want to move around. Due to the high altitude, the cold was practically unbearable and we were eating at an open air dining, which made us so fucking freezing. And getting cold instead of hot drinks as part of our meal does not help either.

Overall rating: 7/10 (kudos for the view)
