Bali : Gelato Festa

Even before I landed in Bali, one of my friends repeated saying that she wanted to try Lello Lello Gelato. While the other one said she likes Gusto Gelato better. It's been 5 years since my last visit, so I have no idea that ice cream parlor has become one of favorite places to visit in Bali. I guess its icy feels and sweet taste can be a perfect buddy for Bali's sunny weather. So let's try both of them! :)

GUSTO GELATO

My friend recommend me to buy the small cup and it turned out that I got 2 big scoops over my cone. I chose to have Caramel and Croccante, because for me nothing beats caramel flavor. The best news was I just had to pay 20k rupiahs (about 2 USD), it's so cheap for a good quality of homemade tasty gelato.
Gusto Gelato have a wide variety of gelato flavors, as many as 18 flavors! Stracciatella, Mascarpone and Crunchy Bites, Like a Snickers Bars, Chocolate Chilli, Ginger with candied ginger pieces, and the list goes on and on~
Aside of producing gelato, this store also sell many flavors of good looking sherbets (I haven't tried it yet). They also serves coffee by Manuela & Caffe Vergnano 1882. This ice cream parlor recently moved early this year and they have a spacious indoor and outdoor area. Free wifi is available.

LELLO LELLO GELATO

Another deliciously sweet gelato in the island. It's a bit milky and I love it! They sell one big scoop for 25k rupiahs (+/- 2.5 USD). I asked the waiter to mix my gelato (another something caramel with salted caramel) and in my opinion is almost as big as 2 scoops of Gusto Gelato. This ice cream parlor has a cute sign and playful words painted on their walls. This place also attached with an Indian Restaurant which start to serve their food on 5 pm and I swear the curry smells sooooo good!

Bali : Catching Sunset

You're not allowed to say that you has visited Bali before you walked on the beach or watched the sunset. The main reason to visit these places below (exc. the last one) is to catch the sunset, so I gave my biggest attention to the view. Refreshing drinks or tasty comfy snacks are just the extras.

POTATO HEAD

It's not the fancy pool or the beach that stole my heart away, it's the mix between green grass, clear blue sky, and comfortable sunset.

Open daily, 11 am - 2 am






LA PLANCHA

Colorful bean bags, great music, touch of sand with lots of sunshine. You only have two choices: come early to get a good spot and bear the sunlight or arrive about an hour before the sunset but you might missed those comfortable bean bags.

BEBEK TEPI SAWAH

Well, it's definitely not a good spot to watch sunset. The dark sky and little raindrops on last Saturday had stopped us to rush back to Seminyak from Ubud because there's a chance that the cloud would blocked the sunset away. But while waiting for our crispy duck to arrive, we accidentally enjoyed the sun slowly dissapeared from the sky without its famous fellow buddies: sand & sea.

Bali: Brunch & Coffee

What to do in Bali nowadays? You still can do surfing, diving, snorkeling, or any other activities on the sea, but for me: eat, go watch sunset, eat, and eat.

REVOLVER

I love the mysterious vibe from this coffee shop. You won't find it easily since it's located behind Home store & This Is A Love Song store on Jalan Kayu Aya. Beside those stores theres an alley called Gang 51, keep watch to your left and you'll find this door. You might wondering if this coffee shop is open or not because there's no window and the door is closed. Raised up my curiosity. Great coffee and ambience, but not so much for the food.

Don't be shy to open this door because you'll find...
...this! It's a perfect place to have a good talk over a cup of  coffee with...
..friends or..
..all by yourself and also..
... with your loved one.
What I order:
Affogato (Y)
Flat White & El Carte for brunch
Sliders buger with thai shrimp and chili jam, although I couldn't find any chili jam inside x(
Revolver at Gang 51

HABITUAL

Uber yummster brunch menu. A place to quench your thirst and feed your hunger. Enough said.





What I order:
Mushroom, cheese, and onions Burger. Finger lickin' good!
