Welcome February The month of love

What is love? For me, I always see myself surrounded by love. Looking at green carpeted rice elds or a violet sunset sky from the edge of the beach can make me feel in love again, while the sweetness of a caramel mousse can take my heart away. Food can be a great expression of love, whether a small barbeque with friends or homemade pasta for a romantic dinner at home. The smallest things sometimes give us the most joy, like a scoop of vanilla ice cream that can easily remind us about the sweetness of love. With Valentines Day in February, love is certainly everywhere. But love is more than chocolates or owers or even candlelit dinners. Love is more than romance; love can also be a virtue of sharing some part of ourselves for the benet of others. Those acts of love and giving back are the subject of our Musings section (p.22) this edition, which uncovers the stories of dining venues that have a positive inuence on both local communities and environment through acts of charity, fund raising and education. We also have stories about the tempting roasted pork at the newly opened Barbacoa (p.26); a journey of sweet escape at Ombak Restaurant, Alila Soori (p. 38); lunch in the wilderness at The Wana (page 46), and spicy cocktails served with live music at the eclectic venue, Red Drum (p.56). There is also an insightful interview with renowned chef/restaurateur Kali Sari (page 52.) Love is truly an open door, and to quote Julia Child, They who eat good food will give back only the good things.

Fried Rice

Balis Melting Pot

A famous hangout scene in downtown Petitenget, Mantra Restaurant and Bar is owned by famous surfer Tipi Jabrik. Every night there are crowds, especially on the weekends, but most people dont know that their international dining menu also has a good selection of Indonesian food.
Mantra offers classic, clean and healthy food with fresh ingredients and rustic presentation. We dont have any microwaves in our kitchen, said Tipi, Hence, every dish needs to be prepared fresh using local products. A Balinese Curry starts our meal, made with shrimps and loaded with fresh vegetables that are still crunchy and have a typical soft coconut milk avour. Sprouts, dried chilies and lime are served on the side for extra taste. The secret recipe Fried Rice is nice, with a subtle seafood avour and this is the rst time I have seen mushroom in fried rice, together with other vegetables and an

Food servings here are vintage-style, in line with the building that looks so much older than its real age. The ambience is always warm and friendly, especially at night with lines of light bulbs hanging from the breezy outdoor porch area. The indoor area is cool with high ceilings, and a huge display of framed pictures of anything and everything; artworks, photos, posters and sketches. It feels homey when you put yourself in the sofa corner, while enjoying the latest tunes from the DJ or live musicians. Event-goers can look out for the announcement board, in front where there is always a list of upcoming and happening gigs. Private gatherings can also be organised at Mantra with their

special F&B packages; options are to book the whole restaurant, or just the upstairs area if you want to have the feeling of being in a crowd of familiar people and friendly strangers. The leather-covered drinks menu and cocktail lists are long, and include an energising Espresso Martini, and the rustic Jack Sparrow served in an oldtimers metal mug with rum, coconut juice and coconut esh garnish. Skipping alcohol? Then try the Black Rice Pudding served with fresh fruit and a small bottle of pure honey - a Balinese way to freshen up your taste buds before heading to the crowds at the bar.

the essential

Despite its name, the strawberry is not classied as a true berry, because unlike a blueberry or cranberry it does not have seeds inside. It is actually a member of the genus Fragaria, also known as the rose family, which includes plums and apples.

The Love Berry

Strawberries are rich in Vitamin C, and high in antioxidants which can help reduce the risk of cancer and heart disease.

Sometimes referred to as love berries, these dainty pink morsels are associated with love and flirtation. At wedding breakfasts in provincial France newly weds are traditionally served a soup of thinned sour cream, strawberries and powdered sugar.

Despite their sweet taste, strawberries are low in calories, and make the perfect diet food. Mix with diced watermelon, fresh mint leaves and a squeeze of lime to create a tasty low fat snack.

Strawberry juice combined with honey can help reduce inflammation and sunburn. Rub the mixture thoroughly into the skin before rinsing off with warm water and lemon juice.

FOOD from the HEART

Salad fresh from the organic gardens at Desa Seni

With Valentines day falling in February, love is certainly in the air and there is no shortage of romantic dining options in Bali for those who wish to celebrate. But there is more to love than chocolates, owers and candlelit dinners; love is also a virtue that represents human kindness, compassion and a genuine concern for the good of others. We celebrate this month of love by highlighting some of the dining venues on the island that have a positive impact on the local community.
Whether practicing sustainable development, sponsoring orphans, or staging charity fun runs and turtle releases, many resorts and restaurants offer great food and atmosphere, complemented by a policy of giving back, to benet others. Desa Seni, an enchanting eco village in Canggu, is at the forefront, and acts as a model of environmental and social responsibility, with an inspiring annual Yoga-MusicDance-a-Thon that has raised over $45,000 for the AIDS awareness program, Ayo! Kita Bicara HIV/AIDS (this years event will take place on March 16.) If we all give back, educate, inspire and nurture, the world will be a better place, says founder Tom Talucci. The restaurant serves up delicious food, much of which is plucked straight from the thriving organic gardens, and can also be enjoyed in a romantic pool side pavilion. Desa Seni also offers free yoga and English classes to its staffs, as well as providing valued support to a number of Yayasans, including Sacred Childhoods an organisation which protects children and combats organised crime, such as child trafcking and prostitution.

In Kuta, Hard Rock Bali is most commonly associated with music and burgers, yet its roots lie deep in philanthropy Its part of our DNA, says Hamish Dodds, Hard Rock Intl. President and CEO. Last October, Bali set the scene for the launch of their 6th annual, global Imagine theres no hunger campaign, with a charity concert by Jakartan rock band, Kotak, which generated over US$10,000 for Sole Men Indonesia a non prot organisation that focuses on helping cases of individual suffering in Bali. Working closely with Sole Men, the program includes delivering food parcels to 100 needy people living in the poorest areas of Denpasar three

In Ubud, Sari Organik leads the way with organic farming, and plays an active role in the growth of Balis green movement. Founder Balinese-born Nilawati asks, We got it right the rst time, so why not put the old ways into practice again? She also offers free cooking classes for Balinese housewives, and runs the enchanting Bodag Mailah restaurant set amidst scenic ride paddys adjacent to the farm. Her newest venture, a restaurant in Kintamani, called Pulu Mujung has been created to generate local employment and training opportunities. Meanwhile, longstanding Bali Buda provides tasty wholefoods in its three cafes/shops while also supporting a number of projects, ranging from organic farming, to Eco Bali, to Rumah Sehat Madani, which provides maternal and general health care to the disadvantaged.

The prestigious annual Tri Hita Karana awards recognise those hotels and resorts that have a positive effect on the communities, while special events see businesses banding together for social/ environmental causes. Coral Triangle Day staged in June saw many hotels and restaurants coordinating beach clean ups, special culinary events, exhibitions and talks. The Bali Hotel Association also deserved a mention, with its on going One Hotel One Orphanage program, with over 70% of its members signed up to supply linen, beds, clothes, education facilities and training opportunities to their designated orphanage. Love may not be all you need, but its a great place to start.

Barbecue Bliss
Arriving at Barbacoa, one of the newest restaurants to open in Petitenget, we nd a large golden brown pig being grilled in the open wooden re, and a cook on standby to constantly add more coffee wood to keep the re burning. Its been slowly grilled for the last eight hours, he explains.
Our well-dressed host leads us to our table at the backyard and we are glad to have arrived just before dark to witness the last remaining rays of sun upon the green rice elds. This elegant restaurant with its high ceilings is both warm and homely, with a large airy space that seems to be created to encourage conversation, yet retains a certain intimacy, for those inclined to be left alone. The solid cooling system works wonderfully against the Balinese humidity. Designed and created by owners Adam Dundas-Taylor and Pete Zuttion, Barbacoa makes a charming addition to the dining scene of Jalan Petitenget.

Sydneysider, Dundas-Taylor, is a chef with a penchant for barbeque, and a passion for creating food that, You wont nd anywhere else except here. Having worked in Spain, London and other European countries; he has now teamed up with fellow chef, Sean Prenter, (ex Rock Pool) and his brother, Kieron Prenter, who is head Mixologist. He tells us that he is excited about Latin American cuisine which translates here as a fusion of Spanish, Mexican, Peruvian and Argentinian avours. We love these styles of food and hence, Barbacoa was born it means BBQ in Spanish, he explains before disappearing, with a promise of Frozen Margaritas to come. A gulp of the chilled punchy margarita later, we are ready to select our meals. The various dishes on the menu will please any meat-lover and are served tapas-style, so ideal for sharing. The more the merrier seems the rule of the thumb here. Cuban Pork Torta with Pickled Red Onion, Aioli and Tomato comes rst, in the deceiving form of a burger with a generous thick juicy cut of meat. The deliciously messy Braised Beef Brisket Corn Taco with Pico de Gallo and Radish is a must-try and tastes even better when eaten with hands. Moving on to the grill selection, our Charcoal Grilled Prawns with Guajillo Chilli Marinade and Avocado are impeccably grilled and still juicy, with a slight smoky aroma. The star of the show is the 8 Hour Wood Fired Asado of the Day carved from that grilled pig that we saw near the entrance. The tender and perfectly sliced meat comes with crunchy pork skins and excellent dipping sauce. We close our dinner with a White Chocolate & Honeycomb Ice Cream Sandwich, a tasteful caramel balance of salty and sweet, ended with a mischievous coconut-avoured biscuit. With a resolution to come back soon, we leave this atmospheric restaurant and call it a night to remember. Eve

Sunset is always a bewitching time, as the sky shows off its gorgeous golden palette. Velvet, on the rooftop of Beachwalk, overlooking Kuta Beach is the perfect venue to bid farewell to the day and welcoming the night.

Restaurant and lounge by day and world class pumping club by night Velvets twin identities blend seamlessly, thanks partly to the solid in-house staff that amaze us with their creative food and beverage inventions. We choose to sit indoors, avoiding the crazy wind that has been plaguing Bali for the last few weeks, and nd a dark, stylish interior consisting of comfortable leather seating and velvet armchairs which make a comfortable way to start the night. From my seat, I can see the stage where many international DJs have performed under the round cupola. A friendly waiter offers a long and enticing list of their newest drinks but I eventually end up asking him for his suggestion. He comes back with a small wooden tray baring a Buddha head aromatherapy candle holder and an Old Fashioned. Its nothing fancy, but is a classic cocktail with the aroma of mint to enhance your drinking experience, he explains. Well, it certainly works for me.

Seared Salmon with Mashed Potato

Created by Head Chef Mukti, who is experienced in Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisine, it comes with no surprise that the comprehensive international menu is a rich fusion of those popular cuisines. Salmon Terrine with Balsamic Vinaigrette and Fresh Salad is a delightful appetiser, light and refreshing. For the main course, I have the Seared Salmon with Mashed Potato, Salad and Vinaigrette Sauce, while my friend is happily tearing away the hearty Chicken Cordon Blue with Sauteed Potato, Creamy Spinach and Roasted Tomato. A special mention needs to be made of the delicious creamy spinach.

The night is thoroughly dark when our Creme Brulee with Home Made Biscuit is served with the Banana Yummy milkshake that my friend seriously loves. The Creme Brulee is perfectly caramelised on top, successfully producing that satisfying crunch when I tap it with my spoon. We talk for quite a while there, when suddenly we realize that the casually dressed sunset crowd has been replaced with a much more formally attired dinner crowd. Soon, the DJ will man the deck. After all, the night is still long. Eve

Rosso, as the name suggests is bathed in red colour and its opulence makes it the darling of Shangri-La Hotel in Jakarta. A much-respected reputation has been built through reigns of Italian chefs who usher both traditional dishes as well as ingenious ideas of their own.

Romantic Opulence

Arriving inside the restaurant, everyone is treated to a degree of extravagance, from a classy dcor that incorporates aesthetic design, velvety sofas, Renaissance-style paintings on the ceiling, and a neat open kitchen between the dining room and the bar. During the day, huge windows shower the dining hall in natural light, giving more energy to hearty Italian lunches, while nights bring a romantic atmosphere from the beautiful gardens and the lights of the surrounding skyscrapers. The main dining room exudes a sophisticated ambience, while two semi-private rooms are available one of which is attached to a nishing kitchen, where guests are able to preview the nal touches placed on their meals. Coming here for the rst time years ago, I indulged in the abundance of fresh antipasti, with plenty of seafood, smoked salmons, carpaccio, and crispy vegetables. All those beauties were complemented with myriad of impressive mains and it has always been a joyous rollercoaster ride of avours and textures here.

One of the best moments was to arrive here during the high season of the exotic white Alba trufes, as these beautiful diamonds were shaved over wonderful delicacies of Crudo of Wagyu Beef with Parmigiano-Reggiano, Tagliolini with Porcini, Jerusalem Artichoke Ravioli with Mascarpone Cream, and the ultimate pleasure that came from Seared Duck Breast Tartare with Foie Gras and Apple Terrine. It was all simply irresistible! These are among the nest dishes that you can enjoy at Rosso, but apart from being a frontrunner of culinary sophistication, the Shangri-La Hotel itself adopts corporate environmental responsibilities in many aspects, which effects the F&B department in a positive way also. For instance, the Be Well initiative has been introduced to the restaurants within the hotel, as well as the guests so that on one side, the hotel kitchens provides fresh, sustainable, and local dining options. While on the other side, guests are encouraged to consume in-season produce from the most sustainable options possible, as a part of hotels collaboration with appointed organic farms. Rosso itself utilises locally grown vegetables such as heirloom tomatoes, mesclun and romaine lettuces, alongside beans, edible owers and rock salt from Bali. Additionally, the hotel recently started its own herb and kitchen garden, which is currently prepared to supply a certain quota of fresh basil, spinach, eggplant, limes, lemon, lentils, and more. So, in support of these initiatives, why not have a romantic rendezvous this February with delectable choices made from sustainable produce? For instance fresh tomato and buffalo mozzarella salad with Parma ham and rock melon should be suitable for a starter. From there, you might want to consider exploring the innite possibilities with your signicant other from the rich Porcini Risotto or Trilogy of Ravioli, and onto a sweet nale of Semifreddo or even the Sweet Pizza!

With a wonderfully secluded location on the Tabanan coast, 20 minutes north of Tanah Lot temple, Alila Villas Soori creates a unique destination dining experience. Those in search of a romantic outing could start with an afternoon massage at the renowned Alila Spa, followed by Champagne cocktails at sunset on a daybed amidst the frangipani, and nish with a lingering candlelit dinner paired with ne wines. Another option, and one that I am keen to try, would be to arrive for breakfast - comprised of an enticing 12-course tasting menu. We take a seat on the beach deck at Ombak restaurant which overlooks the property. Buildings with sleek modern lines carved from local stone and recycled timber are fringed by well-manicured lawns, and make a vivid contrast to the untamed setting of craggy volcanic outcrops and black sand pounded by waves. The design

of the open-sided restaurant, as with the rest of the resort, is elegantly simple so that nothing detracts from this glorious natural vista. Executive Chef, Dwayne Cheer, hails from New Zealand and previously presided over At.Mosphere Restaurant in Dubai, situated on the 122nd oor of the Burj Khalifa - the tallest building in the world. During his reign at the much acclaimed highest restaurant in the world, he prepared food for the rich and famous, including royalty, so we know we are in good hands. He describes the menu as modern European, and his commitment to using as much local produce as possible means a constantly updated tasting and a la carte menu. Ombak translates as waves in Indonesian, and Cheer explains that the sea is denitely an inspiration, with dishes that highlight seafood and light fresh avours.

We start with a delicate Cucumber Gazpacho poured over a dollop of homemade yoghurt avoured with honey, yoghurt, chives, a dash of chilli, and topped with a sprinkle of black caviar. The Seared Scallops that follow are sublime, soft plump morsels served with an excellent pomelo grenonblois a sauce of browned butter, capers, parsley and lemon infused with pomelo for a touch of delicious citrus sweetness. The Wagyu Beef Carpaccio is wrapped like a basket sprouting with peppery rocket, watercress and parmesan shavings. While our main of Pan Fried Mahi Mahi is served with a chewy brioche crust, a crunchy seafood croustillant and pureed peas a la francoise, avoured with mint, onion and pancetta. We opt for two desserts, one a refreshingly icy ensemble of mango passion fruit puree, fresh diced mango, mango sorbet and cookie crumble, known as Tropic Thunder. The other, a Chocolate Fondant lled with smoked peanut

butter and served with swirls of salted caramel and a tart raspberry sorbet. Accolades for Alilas sustainable approach to tourism are many, including a Green Architecture Good Design award and Silver Certication by Earth Check.

The Aroma of Cologne

The best way to get to know a city is by walking. Cologne, the fourth largest city in Germany is excellent for that purpose. Dominated by the mighty Rhein River, Cologne is equipped with wide pedestrian areas, uninterrupted biking lanes and a plethora of restaurants and bakeries serving great food.
At the heart of the city lies the Cologne Cathedral, standing tall and proud for more than 600 years. It is pretty much the only ancient building left standing after the Allies were done bombing the city during World War II. A wonder of Gothic architecture, it offers a spectacular view from its tower, reached by 509 stairs. Having made the climb, this weary traveller decides to hit the kneipe for one of the main reasons why people visit Cologne: the beer. Visiting a Kneipe, or pub is a very interesting cultural experience to be savoured, and Im not just talking about the freshly brewed golden liquid that all of us love. Klsch, the typical Cologne beer is served in a small glass to ensure that it is always cold and fresh. The dry-humoured bar keeper will keep bringing more beer unless you cover your glass with your coaster to mark your submission. To complete the whole experience, I indulge in the giant Schweinshaxe or roasted pork knuckle. Served with mashed potato, the meat juice tastes just as good as the tender meat itself which can be stripped off so easily from the bone.

Cologne is also a heaven for sausage-lovers. Snacking on slices of currywurst is one of my favourite thing to do here, followed by a brisk walk on the cobbled stone street of the Altstadt or the remaining old town to burn off the calories. Coming from a country where the streets barely have pavements and are most unfriendly to pedestrians, walking is a luxury I thoroughly enjoy during my brief stay. On my way back to my relatives house, I decided to stop by at the Imhoff Schokoladen museum. The contemporary building by the Rhein River has a detailed exhibit on the subject of chocolate. Aside from learning about the history and production of chocolate, there is a rather magical sight of a three meter high chocolate fountain. The best part is of course when the assigned employee dips wafers into the gooey chocolate liquid sponsored by Lindt, and distributes them to the visitor.

This is my third visit to the city and it becomes more familiar than ever as I am staying at my relatives house. Traditional bakery shops have had difculty to compete with supermarkets selling cheaper fresh breads, explained my uncle, after he came back from his daily morning bread-buying trip which has taken longer than usual. Together with a bag of warm wheat bread rolls that smells like heaven, he has bought thin sliced ham and cheese. The energising breakfast becomes fuel when I bike my way to visit the museum quarter near the Dom later that day. A huge 4711 Eau de Cologne retail store near the Dom is lled with tourists. Who could blame them when the very name of the city means that fragranced water that we all use. In fact, if you want to know what Cologne smells like in a bottle, 4711 captures it brilliantly. Eve

Balinese Platter

Lunch in the Lions Den

How does it feel to eat a meal while surrounded by over three hundred fty animals? We took the challenge at Bali Zoos newest restaurant; Wana Restaurant.Lounge.Bar at Bali Zoo enjoying South East Asian food under the watchful eye of African lions.
The restaurants at Bali Zoo are located just after the ticket booth, but dont worry, you dont have to purchase admission tickets if you just go for the food, and it makes a smart way to eat while feeling close to nature, since the complex resembles a green tropical jungle. Aiming to provide good South East Asian food prepared by the new Chef, I Gusti Bagus Wiriadi, as well as a range of international cocktails a la Seminyak, the Wana, which translates as jungle in Balinese, creates an intimate feeling with its rustic design. Set in a two-story tree house adjacent to the lions area (revealed through thick glass windows,) you have the experience of being up close and personal with the animals.

We sit near the windows and are welcomed with a Balinese Platter with four kinds of appetisers; Vietnamese Spring Rolls with Sweet and Chili Sauce, Corn Fritters, Sate Lilit, and Martabak with hints of cumin. The Khao Soi is a Thai curry dish of red chili chicken soup poured on dried noodles and peanuts, with coconut milk giving rich texture and spice. If you like sh, try the Ikan Acar Kuning with vegetable acar pickles balancing the Tilapia llet. Nasi Goreng Mawut is Indonesian fried rice served with the lot; rice, noodles, vegetables, boiled eggs and chicken. The rst oor gives wider views of the jungle and we take a seat on a sofa to chat with Chef Gusti and await dessert. Cushions on the oor and a swinging rattan chair create a relaxed nature vibe, and jungle-themed parties here can accommodate up to 30 people, which makes a great idea for childrens birthdays and other special events, with customised menu arrangements also available.

Chef Battle
Between quality control, endless meetings and menu tastings, these two extremely busy executive chefs managed to sit down and share their stories. One comes from England while the other comes from France, but they have two things in common: Bali and a long lasting love affair with good food.

Q: How did you become a Chef?

CHEF SHERLOCK: I started cooking at the age of nine, when I was home alone and decided to make pancakes. I messed the whole kitchen up with our but remembered eating these lumpy sugary pancakes with my friends, and they were just great. That was the day I realised cooking was all I wanted to do. CHEF RUIDAVET: I wasnt good at school, but as I grew up in Toulon, becoming a chef came naturally for me, and I have been cooking ever since.

Q: Hypothetically, what would you like to eat as

your last meal?
CHEF SHERLOCK: Something spicy. The spicier, the better. I have a soft spot for sambal matah and good sh. CHEF RUIDAVET: Caviar and Champagne. They are both easy to open!

Q: Please describe your typical working day?

CHEF SHERLOCK: I spent most days teaching and coaching our staff here, checking the produce and attending plenty of meetings. My life revolves around food, to the extent that my personal kitchen is also my laboratory. CHEF RUIDAVET: It usually starts with a good cup of coffee, then there is food testing, meetings and coordinating. There are always things to do. Im usually back at home by nine.

Q: What is your favourite food?

CHEF SHERLOCK: I love Asian food with lots of spices and aromatic avours. The food is very diverse from region to region, and in most cases it is very healthy too. CHEF RUIDAVET: All food is good, as long as it is cooked with heart. Personally, I enjoy the food that my wife cooks for me. She has a great taste!

Q: Care to share an unforgettable moment that you have

had with food? CHEF SHERLOCK: The rst taste of my chefs babi guling at Nusa Dua Beach Hotel! Its made from a family recipe, passed down from generation to generation. The blend of spices is rich with avour but not over powering. CHEF RUIDAVET: The rst time I had sushi in New York when I was 20 years old. It was a totally new thing for me.

Q: Good food is...

CHEF SHERLOCK: Made with fresh produce and well prepared, everything has to be made from scratch. CHEF RUIDAVET: Very personal. What is good for me, is not necessarily good for you. Text by Eve

KALI SARI

www.letseatmag.com

Apprenticing in her familys restaurant in Perth, Kali Sari went on to master the art of Italian cookery in Sardinia, before winding up in Bali in the 80s, spinning records at the legendary Double 6 Club. As the co-founder of three successful restaurants, and Saraswati Papers which creates beautiful hand made recycled paper and paper products Kali lives a life lled with colour and creativity. Here she talks about her love of Bali, and her genuine commitment to play an active part in her adopted community.

what made you stay?

Q: What brought you to Bali, and more importantly, A: I came on holiday to Bali in 1983 and never left. I loved

of prots going to the Bali Kindergarten Project. More than just unique hand crafted paper, Saraswati is about empowerment of Balinese women. I work with around 30 women as a collective, many of whom were previously unskilled and unemployed, who have now learned a craft, and also, the value of recycling. In turn they act as educators in their families and villages, sharing their knowledge about sustainability and creating a greener world.

everything here: the Balinese people, the colours, the smell, the tropical breezes, all the minute details and visual explosions that go into every day Balinese life.

you are clearly a woman of many talents, do you have a favourite mantle?

Q: DJ, chef, designer, photographer, paper maker.

A: Food is still my passion, and as part owner/Executive

Chef, I create the menus and train the chefs, as well as designing the look and feel of the restaurants; and of course I compile the play lists! We adopt sustainable recycling practices, including the use of Saraswati products for our menus, brochures and business cards. Making food and making paper are both tactile and sensual pursuits in a way both are basic cooking, and also give me the chance to work closely with a supportive team of Balinese people.

Q: Any advice for foreigners wanting to set up a business in Bali? A: Working in Bali is a mutual exchange of knowledge,
talents and skills. Sharing western logic with Balinese viewpoints is a powerful combination that can create a unique and enriching work experience.

Q: Any tips for celebrating Valentines Day on the island? A: Wherever you are and however you want to
celebrate love, you dont need a special day or place to do it. Love is universal, if Valentines day is what reminds you of that, then use it and enjoy it, but dont forget it the next day. Text by Alison

Q: You started Saraswati Papers in 1995, what led to A: A combination of my love for all things paper and a

genuine desire to be involved in the community, rather than just sit on the edge. I wanted to give back in my own little way. We create beautiful recycled paper products which we sell here in Bali and abroad, with a percentage

Mamas Crispy Crostata

Crisp sweet pies with layers of strawberry jam have the taste of Italy, especially when baked by Mama Luigina. I love to cook, and these are all my own recipes, she says, showing us a towering stack of papers at her restaurant, Rustica, which has also become her living room. In honour of Valentines Day she has baked us a crostata adorned with love hearts, and graciously agrees to share her recipe. Ingredients
300 grams our 130 grams softened butter 1 egg 1 egg yolk 70 grams sugar Lemon zest, shredded 1 teaspoon yeast Vanilla powder

Methods
Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Mix all ingredients to form a soft dough. Place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes, then take out and leave at room temperature for 5 minutes.

Sugar and Spice

DragonRouge, DragonBlanc, Red Drum Martini

An artistic collaboration of musicians and designers, Red Drum brings African air and a touch of Caribbean spice to Bali. From casual lunches to zesty high tea, to rhythmic nights charged with live music, this atmospheric venue adds a vibrant edge to Balis restaurant/bar scene.
It all starts innocently enough, on a sofa in the middle of the afternoon, sipping tea, and nibbling at dainty sandwiches and sweets. Then suddenly, its the early hours of the following morning and I am perched at the bar, nursing a smooth Lychee Star Martini and swaying to the legendary band, Saharadja. Such is the ow or should I say the beat of Red Drum, where a colourful fusion of African/Caribbean avours and design creates a unique and funky space.

Arriving in the peaceful lull of mid-afternoon gives me a chance to really appreciate the eclectic dcor, starting with the porch, adorned with evocative African portraits and a small boutique area with vibrant jewellery, clothing and trinkets. The sumptuous lounge reveals a collection of West African tribal masks and djembes, a sexy bar area with zebra hide-covered stools, and tables adorned in brightly coloured glasses and African print napkins.

Keturah is our vivacious hostess and condes she has been experimenting with various avours to create signature cocktails, but its a still a little early in the day for me, so we sit down for Red Drum High Tea, which adds sparkle and spice to this ancient ritual. A choice of fragrant hand-blended brews include Jasmine and Muddled Lemongrass, and Sorrel, a popular Caribbeanstyle drink made with dried hibiscus boiled with orange, lemon, cinnamon, clove, fresh ginger and honey. A tiered-stand is decked out in nger sandwiches of soft sourdough layered with crispy fried spicy eggplant, feta and rocket, slivers of apple tart, almond biscuits, and divine sugar cinnamon balls with raw cocoa sauce. As day turns to night we head into Happy Hour(68pm) and the more potent realm of cocktails, starting

with vodka martinis blended with exotic dragon fruit including a crisp and dry DragonBlanc, and a deep crimson-hued DragonRouge. My favourite is the Red Drum Martini, an intoxicating blend of hibiscus and Jamaican rum, infused with luscious hints of ginger, lemon, cinnamon, honey and a dash of Creole bitters. Platters of Malawi Mbatata Cheese and Sim Sim, fried cheese and cassava balls coated in sesame seeds, ery Mozambican Chilli Chicken Wings, and tasty Senegali Spicy Crispy Eggplant fuel me for the next round. Which is just as well, as its a Paradise Island Ice T which follows the basic Long Island rules ie. loads of alcohol, but has been tropicalised to wonderful effect, with a dash of rosella and a splash of ginger ale.

As usual it turns into a great big jam session, with guests including the incredible Colombian djembe player from Afro Spirit, who belts out a mesmerising beat. Saharadja plays every Saturday, while you can catch sultry blues singer Jim Larkin on Wednesdays, and Afronesia on Fridays.

and brimming with vibrant colour, starting with a lightly grilled Zucchini Carpaccio, scattered with soft tender crab, fresh soy beans, and piled high with watercress infused with tangy hints of mint, fennel and preserved lemon. The Fragrant Grilled Fennel and Sumac Spiced Salmon is imbued with citrus overtones, while the delightful quinoa that accompanies it contrasts the savoury crunch of grain with sweet juicy bursts of pomegranate. The Spelt Flour Tortilla with Black Beans, Quinoa, Sweet Corn, Guacamole and Cashew Cream, presents a tasty, full Mexican avour without the dairy or calories. People often think raw food is conned to salads and juices, but actually thats just the beginning, and I am curious to try some of the glow raw dishes as preparing varied, tasty food without cooking it, takes great skill and imagination. Advocates claim a raw food diet is the healthiest, as ingredients retain enzymes, vitamins and proteins which are often destroyed by the cooking process. The secret to keeping it interesting is the use of a dehydrator which gently heats food to 40

degrees, without actually cooking it. This keeps all the nutrients intact, and here at glow, creates the fabulous cracker-like base for the Macadamia and Pumpkin Raw Pizza topped with a savoury and sweet mix of avocado, pineapple and mango. As much as I enjoy raw food, I am a little sceptical about the Chilled Cucumber, Aloe Vera and Avocado Soup with Soursop Sorbet that I spot on the menu. My mind is thinking avocado, cucumber, in a dessert? But what a wonderful surprise, and this turns out to be my favourite dish of the day a thin, sweet soup, topped with shredded young coconut mingling with zesty ginger and fresh mint, and a slightly tart soursop sorbet. I have to admit, I have eaten like a trooper, but this is the beauty of healthy food, you can do that and be left feeling satised and totally energised, rather than that more usual feeling of heaviness that follows a big meal. Sunday Brunch is also highly recommended. Alison
