Bali Jimbaran Shopping
Fresh: Japanese restaurant in Seminyak Bali
Friday night in Bali was a busy little time-frame, with a new Kafe Warisan furniture place opening in Jimbaran, a showing at the Jenggala Gallery in Jimbaran, and the soft-opening of Fresh, a new Japanese restaurant in Seminyak. My schedule was going to be tight, with an invite to Fresh starting at 8pm and another invite to Jenggala at 7.30rp. Fresh is located on Jl. Oberoi, past Rumours and Trattoria, hang a left around the bend and its there on your right.

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.

Jimbaran: The place for fish in south Bali-part I
There is a bbq at my house on Sunday and I wanted to get some fish for the occasion. Jimbaran is the place where everyone goes who lives in the Kuta area and the ride down from Seminyak took me about 30 minutes. Jimbaran was the scene of hideout terrorist attacks a couple of weeks ago and I have not really checked out the place since. Jimbaran Bay really is a lovely place, with golden sand, resort hotels and a fish market on the north end. I pulled off of Bypass Ngurah Rai and headed pass what seemed like 100 seafood restaurants, up to the market. The seafood warungs are always quiet in the daytime, this is a strictly nighttime scene, with people relaxing on the sand and enjoying seafood under the stars.

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: The place for fish in south Bali-part II
Some of the vendors told me they were from Madura, a large island in East Java and I saw many Muslim people there with their kids. The Muslim religion spread to areas in Bali that are coastal so it's not really surprising they are in Jimbaran. Everyone was good vibes and asked me about Jevon. Packing the 2 fish into bags I hung it on my bike and scooted back to Seminyak, hoping they would not take too much of a beating from the searing tropical sun on the way back. Arriving home I was eager to get the fish in the fridge and sitting inside something tasty. At Bintang supermarket in Seminyak, I picked up soy sauce, pepper, onions, garlic, lemon juice and a couple of packets of Thai and Balinese sauces.
