Read MoreIf La Bianca belongs to sunset, Agung Beach Club belongs to the morning: breakfast on the sand, Mount Agung across the water and the easygoing island world of Papa Louis and Yanti.
Read MoreCreated by Fanny and Morgan, La Bianca is a beachfront Lembongan restaurant where chef Nicolas Codani’s Mediterranean cooking meets one of the island’s great pleasures: dinner beneath the trees at sunset.
Read MoreA modest burger joint in Jungut Batu, an excellent homemade bun, a perfectly smashed patty and one dangerously subjective conclusion: JJ’s may serve my favourite burger in Bali.
Read MoreLooking for an object genuinely made in Bali, I found Kala Hats: Sastrajiwa’s extraordinary Canggu atelier where merino felt, fire, engraving and craftsmanship turn a hat into something entirely personal.

Read MoreA little corner of France in the heart of Seminyak. Chef François is where I go when Bali suddenly makes me miss proper cheese, charcuterie, homemade French classics and the kind of sandwich that tastes like home.
