Seb & Ali's ChillaxBBQ, Condo Break-In Another ChillaxBBQ -this time for one of the and his good lady. 3 months in Singapore, so time for a 'house warming'. This is Seb & Ali's ChillaxBBQ, Condo Break-In. And we did it Tex-Mex stylee. I do believe it was a cracker. We're also locked in for a client's girlfriend birthday next weekend, so keep an eye for a blog coming near you then. A few missed photos thatI am rather annoyed about, but hey. To call out, we did indeed visit Chris at The ...

New Year’s Eve 2018, ChillaxBBQ in Bali

New Year's Eve 2018, ChillaxBBQ in Bali I had an idea to cook something for Ruther's 50th, so ordered in black pudding. It ended up as a NYE banquet, cooked by Marky Mark and I - so yes I am nominating this as a ChillaxBBQ event - this is New Year's Eve 2018, ChillaxBBQ in Bali. Marky Mark and I battled through with limited utensils (AKA one blunt knife), no oven (AKA the villa bought us 2x BBQ's) to bake, no chopping boards, no cloths, hey let's face it we had nothing. The previous day I ...

Naughty Nuri’s Restaurant, Ubud Bali

Naughty Nuri's Restaurant, Ubud Bali This came as a recommendation from the guys in the villa, and was also highly rated in the likes of TripAdvisor. To be absolutely honest for the first 30 minutes or so we were all doubting as to why. You can't book here, so it is a risk to travel all the way to the place which is quite some way out of Ubud centre. There are actually two Naughty Nuri's Restaurant, Ubud Bali. One is the original which is very Warung style. The other is newer and is supposedly ...

Spice Restaurant, by Chris Salans

Spice Restaurant, by Chris Salans I stumbled on this by Googling, a wee TripAdvisor scan etc. It looked rather special, and I loved the reviews, so this became my recommendation for my gang to lunch at this day. We were staying in a villa in the outer jungly bits of Ubud, so it was great to get back to civilisation, do a bit of people watching, shopping and then sit to eat a meal. And hope that the meal was good. My choice this day, of which I am so thankful to the foodie Gods, was Spice ...

Warung Ocha, Chef Yoshi, Seminyak, Bali

Warung Ocha, Chef Yoshi, Seminyak, Bali Not a great deal to really write up about the food here as I didn't actually eat any food from Warung Ocha, Chef Yoshi, Seminyak, Bali. But it was a case of Mary's flight coming in so so late, massive delays at immigration etc. to cause her and the munchkins to just want to get to villa, sit and eat, not go out. So I wandered up the road to get, originally, some JFC. This is a classic by the way, as it is a massive p*ss take and plagiarise of the USA ...

Potato Head, Seminyak Beach, Bali

Potato Head, Seminyak Beach, Bali We were desperate to get to the beach on Boxing Day. We had to exit the villa at midday and there was no storage for our bags. A genius plan came about over a beer or two, let's get a van for a tourist day trip. Leave the bags inside it, whilst we eat and meander. Now we can go to the beach and one of our favourites; Potato Head, Seminyak Beach, Bali. Last time we were here was 6 years ago, our last trip, when we stayed at W with the DiStefanos, and then a ...

Bo & Bun Restaurant, Seminyak, Bali

n Bo & Bun Restaurant, Seminyak, Bali Not wandering too far from the villa we chose a restaurant for our Christmas dinner. How did we choose it? We walked past it, it looked cool, we looked on TripAdvisor and it rated good. BUT there was no room at the Inn (yes it's Christmas), according to Chope. So I researched further and booked us in to Bo & Bun Restaurant, Seminyak, Bali. Funny though as we walked past the other, it was empty and they were trying to drag people in off the street. ...

Kilo Restaurant, Jalan Drupadi, Seminyak

Kilo Restaurant, Jalan Drupadi, Seminyak Of course we had to come to our mate Javier's Bali version of the Singaporean favourite, Kilo. We had to. So I pre-booked Christmas Day lunch at his place. Yeah this was going to be good. Bring it on Kilo Restaurant, Jalan Drupadi, Seminyak. I recommend you taxi it to the restaurant, as we started walking and it is a jaunt believe me. BUT, after lunch and watching some guests with 'local knowledge' there are alleyways that cut straight through to the ...
