Shark Delicacies
For as long as I can remember on my travels I have never imbibed in seafood cuisine that contained shark meat of any kind. As a scuba diver and an environmentalist, I do have a very healthy respect for these beautiful creatures. There are those that don’t considering them the scourge of the oceans.

Warung Layar: Jimbaran Bay Bali
Warung Layar is located on the beach front, next to Villa Batu. When I visited in the morning, the 2 staff were still getting themselves organized, but Warung Layar does advertise breakfast, on its menu. One of the interesting aspect of this warung, is the collection of exotic carvings that are all around. The lady told me they come from all over Indonesia and I could definitely detect influences from eastern Indonesia. On the property was a massive rice-barn, looking like something from Sumatra. It was for sale too (0361)703186, for anyone who could figure out how to get it home. Imagine setting that thing up in your backyard.
The menu is as follows:

Mega Resort Complex: Jimbaran, Bali
Late last year I was down on the Bukit Peninsula with some Balinese friends of mine having a look around. I was eager to check out Pura Uluwatu to see if any changes had occurred as I had not been there for a while.

Warung Nyoman: Jimbaran Bay Bali
Warung Nyoman, or Nyoman Cafe, whichever you prefer, is located at Muaya Beach at the southern end of Jimbaran Bay, close to the Four Season Hotel. Walking back along the beach from the Four Seasons, this is one of the first warungs you will come to. Of course they are in operation for the nighttime traffic, but open during the day for beach-goers. As well as a grilled seafood selection, they offer a small menu. With plenty of seating available inside, under the shade, the warung offers a perfect place for beach-goers to refresh. My meal today was nasi goreng, which was spicy and contained shrimp.

The Three-Legged Bali Dog
Many of you Bali travellers who have been going to the island for a while will still remember the days when dogs roamed the streets of the Kuta strip scavenging for scarps of food and demolishing offerings laid out in front of shops and houses.

Jimbaran Bay: Grilled fish on the beach
Tuesday night Chris, Anil, Pria and I went down to Jimbaran to eat fish on the beach. The beach at Kedonganan is loaded with places that all have the same formula, you choose what fish you want from the tanks and boxes, sit at a table on the sand and wait for 20 minutes for the food to be delivered, grilled.
