LaRouge restaurant — Restaurant in Kecamatan Karangasem

We have been in Candidasa for a few days now and eaten at several of the restaurants but la rouge has been by far the best so far. I had the Mahi-Mahi special served in basil pesto with garlic roasted vegetables and chunky chips, the mahi-mahi was cooked to perfection and the flavours on the plate worked perfectly together; it was delicious! My partner had chicken cordon bleu which also looked perfectly cooked, she agrees it was our best meal here thus far. As well as the flavours the food was beautifully presented and the staff extremely friendly and helpful! Returned here this evening and were not disappointed, it was if possible even better than before I had the crab cake starter; they were the best crab cakes I've ever had, followed by the lamb chops which were again cooked to perfection; succulent and full of flavour! For dessert I had perfitorols which were filled with both a layer of whipped cream and a layer of ice cream... incredible! Certainly a 5 star restaurant and one of the best I've eaten at anywhere...

We have walked past on two previous occasions. Thankfully, this time, we stopped for dinner.....

From the moment we stopped to view the street menu, we were greeted warmly by Agus (who was our server).

We arrived a little later in the evening, which was no problem to the staff. While we browsed the extensive menu, we were presented with complimentary hot bread rolls with garlic butter, very nice indeed.....

We decided on Mutton Samosa's to share as a starter (with the most beautiful mint accompliment) followed by mains of Chicken Cordon Bluè and Grilled Mahi Mahi, both served with a selection of vegetables and the silkiest mash potato ever. We weren't going for dessert, but the Housemade Cinnamon Ice Cream was too tempting, naughty, but very nice.

To Agus and the front girls (sorry, I dont know your names), Chef Ketut, and his girls in the kitchen....a HUGE thank you for an outstanding and very enjoyable memorable evening.

We will be...

The burger I had was the worst burger I've ever had. The patty didn't even taste beef it can easily melt in your tongue like I don't know what is this kind of beef burger. Plus the soda water is like a cheap fanta in the plastic bottle. And it's very pricy. There are more so much good affordable places than here. We suppose to go back here for dinner when I read the menu but It disappoint me with the burger I ate same with the Cesar salad we ordered low quality I haven't try the other dishes yet so we are not lucky the things...
