Aroma restaurant Bali Collections, Nusa Dua, Bali, Indonesia

Bali Collections is a big complex of restaurants and shops in between of Courtyard by Marriott and Grand Hyatt in Nusa Dua. Tried this Aroma restaurant in Bali Collections.
1/2. the shop is in an open area.
3. Papaya juice.
4. Seafood salad - it reminded me of the Thai warm salad. This one is not that spicy and the seafood is pretty fresh.
5. Chicken veggie soup. Pretty good too.
6. Nasi Campur (nasi means rice). It's a plate with quite many things, stewed beef, curry chicken and lots of veggie. Very nutritious, and it's pretty tasty too. I finished it all.
7. Balinese grilled spring chicken. This one is very nice. It's not heavily seasoned but the chef used some local herbs and salt to make it very aromatic. *note the Balinese food is with quite a lot of veggie and string beans. A good balanced meal with nutrition and fiber.
8. chili dip. Normally I don't take chili paste, as most of those are either salty or a bit too spicy. This one is very original without too much seasoning. They use quite some shallot which is nice to bring up the aroma.

#6 is also common here. Very yummy.
They like to put rice next to meat, curry, one sunnyside up egg, veggie in one plate, with lots of sauce.

Please try their many layer dessert cake too. It is like our thousand layer cake at Chinese dim sum place.

I was quite full after a whole meal. Besides, I don't like those sweet made of coconut and/or pandan leaves. That's why I seldom take Thai, Malay and Indonesian dessert much.

All Indonesian and Thai dessert are sweet. In fact, cakes in BKK are sweet like those in US, except for those places TC brought us to.
The best is the one we went with you and Mr Trainer where each of us ate 3 slices of cake per person.

That is Secret Garden. :)

Thank you SEA for the name.
Yes Secret Garden has the best cake in BKK(and in LA).
The other one I like in BKK is the thick toast place we ate with you and the Trainer last year.

That's called "After You". :)

Thank you SEA for the "Secret Garden" and the "After You".
These two places can be re-visited.
