"Remember to Remember"

Bali Day 2: Made's Warung, Kuta Beach, Nusa Dua Beach, Spa, Sunset at Uluwatu & Delicious Ribs at Naughty Nuri's

Our Driver
Mr. Bagus. He charged IDR 300,000 per car (Toyota Avanza)/ day. He offered to pick us up at the airport on the first day (without charges). Thus the total amount we spent for transport was IDR 900,000/ RM318.20 (for 3 full days, for 4 person). Great deal eh?

Continued from Bali Day 1......

A night to re-energize and we're all ready for action again. Woke up early and checked out of Tune hotel (we stayed in 3 different hotels for the 3 nights we spent in Bali).

Here's our itinerary for Day 2:

#1 Breakfast at Made's Warung
For locals or even tourist alike, this place is famous. We have read reviews on Bali's must dine-in venue and Warung Made (pronounced as 'mah-deh') had made it on almost every page of the dining lists. Since it's highly recommended, we were even excited to check it out for ourselves. It's local food we're searching for! :)

Note: Will update price soon

Day 2 (23.04

Nasi Goreng Special

Chocolate Milkshake

Verdict: Not the best we had, and tastewise, we find it overrated somehow. Ah.. maybe it's just us, or this place have been to commercialized to a degree of diminishing authenticity.

#3 Ground Zero
As you may know, some of the happening pubs, lounges and clubs are centered around the epicenter of the Bali bombing zone, known as ‘ground zero’. There, stand a bombing memorial which is a marble wall with the victims' names & tiled road.
FYI, the annual ceremony takes place here on October 12th.

#6 Balinese Spa @ Wahyu Spa
Pamper yourself with a relaxing session of massage and spa while you're in Bali.
We went for a package that includes sauna, foot bath, balinese massage, choice of body scrub, skin conditioning and flower milk bath.
Duration : 2 Hours
Price : IDR 300,000/ RM107 (per pax)
There are cheaper ones out there definitely as this one is located at Nusa Dua. (we later saw one of the spa centers in Ubud that offered IDR 300,000 for about 4 hours!)

#7 Glass Chapel @ Thirtha Uluwatu
"Thirtha makna air suci" said Mr Bagus, our guide cum driver
He dove us over to this heavenly venue when we mentioned about visiting their 'Gereja Kaca'.
This is perfect place if you're planning a wedding soon! We went oohed & aahed over every little details that was brought to us. They really pioneered the wedding concept, selecting Bali's most magical setting; sun, sea & blue sky. They also provide all-inclusive services to cater to every aspect of your wedding.
Wedding package starts from USD2700.

#9 Pura Uluwatu
It's a cultural temple located in the southwest of Bali, well-known for "kechak" performances and mischievous monkeys.
Entrance fee: IDR 3000/RM1.10 per person

Day 2 (23.047

Note: Dress up in sarongs (it's compulsory to not bare your thighs). Take good care of your belongings; esp sunglasses, camera, head/hairbands & not to get too close with the monkeys at all cause, cos they ain't nice at all.

IMG_7700

Witnessing these little rascal snatching belongings from visitors is a normal scene and they have to get something (e.g peanuts or fruits) from the vendors to exchange it with the cunning monkeys!

It's a shame that we missed sunset at Uluwatu due to the moody weather in the evening that day.

IMG_7713

Still pleased with the scenic views though :)

We then head over to Ubud......


#10 Naughty Nuri's Ribs was Awesome

IMG_7730

The luring aroma from its front door already pulled us in quick.

BBQ Ribs with the kicking flavour! Soft meat texture penetrated with flavoursome sauce from marination that'll not stick on the bone.

Katie May 10, 2010 at 2:23 PM  

Wow, so much food! The spring rolls look delicious - they were probably our most favourite dish in Bali and we'd always order spring rolls with our dinner. Second favourite was me goreng or nasi goreng - YUM!

Taufulou May 10, 2010 at 5:22 PM

I almost everyday had my dinner in Sidoi Warung in Jalan Legian. Close to my hotel and serves very nice Western food. They are so generous with the avocado in the avacado shrimp salad only RP 18,500. OMG. I want to go to Bali again.

manfred May 18, 2010 at 4:21 PM  

well after seeing the photographs i am very much excited to go there.

Bali Tour Guide May 22, 2010 at 3:55 PM  

Great blog with great photos of Bali.

Alvin Law October 18, 2011 at 11:39 AM  

i was doing some research for my Bali trip and the information from your website came in handy for me.

i am planning to engage Mr bagus's service and visit the glass chapel in tirtha uluwatu.

can we take picture in the tirtha uluwatu?

Agnes March 20, 2012 at 12:21 PM  

Hi, I will be visiting Bali next month. Will you mind sharing your driver, Mr Bagus's contact with me? The rate sounds much reasonable than the one I got from my friend.
Thanks. Agnes (agnesmullen@yahoo.com)

Agnes March 20, 2012 at 12:24 PM  

Hi,
not sure if my first message went thru. But wanna know if you can share Mr Bagus's contact with me? The rate sounds pretty reasonable. cheers
