I was staying at a hotel nearby. Decided to have late lunch. After doing a quick search on google. Found Home by Chef Wayan around the corner, it states Indonesian cuisine with a modern twist. I always go to different counties to try their local dishes. So decided to pop by and I was pleasantly surprised by their food! I had 2 dishes, 1 Apple GT Kombucha

1. Ayam Srosop which was chicken thigh with crisp skin and the soup/sauce accompanied it was really just nice. I really enjoyed mixed with my nasi/rice. Not too spicy.

2. Beef Rendang, really tender/soft. It wasn’t too spicy and it was really enjoyable

3. Apple GT kombucha was initially little sour for me. So I mixed with ice. The wife of the restaurant owner came by to say hi and to me and shared that Kombucha was home-made and suggested to add some ice so that the taste will get better as I thought it was perfect for a hot day like today.

She was such a sweet lady. I will definitely recommend and come back again

Note: I was so hungry that I gobbled up everything and forgot to take photos except the Apple...

The place is great, the service is perfect, the flavours are awesome, but the size of the plates are on the small side.

The Grilled Octopus as almost no octopus, tiny mini pieces. The plate is absolutely fantastic, the idea of a potatoes risotto is beautiful and the octopus is cook to perfection but it was ridiculous the amount of octopus. (it was not like on their IG account) The piece of Gilled fish was small but we found out after that it was black-cod (or the Indonesian equivalent) It was weird also that it was served with rice.

The dessert were really good. Great Ice-cream.

The bagel for the morning was good but it was a bit naked in the middle of a white plate. it was the same for the pancake. They were although very good.

everything is great but the portions are too small. I also like the fact that the chef, Wayan, come and talk to you. This is a great respect sign. The chef is super nice and have...
