Is the food safe to eat?

You’ve heard ‘Never eat salads or fruit unless you washed them with bottled water 1st ‘.
Ok, and you would miss some of the finest fruit & vegetable eating in the world.



My breakfast included with my lodging at Gusti’s Garden Bungalows. Papaya & Pineapple piled high with Banana, plus a Banana Jaffle (toast hot pressed around fruit). I wash it down with real Bali Kofe & tea with sugar.






View from my breakfast table of waterfall and stream in lush ravine.



My “Warm Salad” was different and tasty. A cooked halved tomato stuffed with warm herbal cheese is a unique vegetarian dish at Sari Organik. My fresh watermelon juice is mixed with crushed ice to chill it and served with slice of melon.




Sari Organik Warung is vegetarian heaven in the rice paddy fields adjacent to Ubud. It offers a range of delicious, wholesome dishes prepared from chemical-free vegetables from its adjacent organic research station garden. Price about $5.50

Their clean restroom has pretty stain glass window.

I discovered this peaceful spot walking thru the rice paddies.

I later went back there for Bali’s 1st Official Rice Tasting Competition (later story).

I have dinner at Ruma Roda, a local family restaurant across the street from Gusti’s.

This dinner is tuna in a nice tamarind sauce, and Sayur Urbin (spelling?) local vegetable leaves and grated coconut in a light sauce. Served with rice and some diced cucumber & peppers in a sweet sauce. Nice Papaya juice with lime added to bring-out the sweet flavor.

Desert is fresh Papaya with lime served in traditional banana leaf bowel.

All for about $3.50. You too can afford to travel with James' ContributionAdventure world tours!
