Pison Coffee Petitenget

Known for its good coffee, Pison Coffee is one of the go-to spots for locals, out-of-town visitors as well as tourists who are looking for a solid caffeine fix. Occupying a two-story red-brick building, Pison Coffee Petitenget went with the industrial look theme with high ceilings, exposed beams, dark wood panels and brick and grunge walls for their interior.

“Pison Coffee first opened its doors in 2014. Our focus has always been simple:
Good Coffee & Good Food.

Everything on our menu highlights Indonesia’s abundant resources from locally sourced coffee beans to locally sourced ingredients.

Have a sip of our house blends and maybe a bite of our carefully curated fusion dishes. All in the backdrop of calming Asian-Western fusion inspired ambiance!”

—Pison Coffee

On top of serving excellent coffee, they also have a wide variety of food menu options ranging from Asian to Western dishes. Two things that I always heard rave reviews about from my friends who have visited this place are their Crispy Pork Belly Fried Rice (Chinese style fried rice with garlic, ginger, and chopped coriander) and their Espresso Avocado (avocado juice, chocolate syrup, vanilla ice cream poured with espresso). And so of course I ordered those two to try.

The Crispy Pork Belly Fried Rice was great. It was well-seasoned and they use long grains rice so the rice wasn't sticky. The pork belly was really crispy and cut in perfect bite size. I only tried a little of the Espresso Avocado because I don't really drink coffee but it was good. The sweetness of the avocado juice, chocolate syrup and ice cream was balanced well with the bitterness of the espresso when you have it mixed together.

If coffee is not your thing, you can always come here to sip on some alcohol while enjoying the live music they have going on every night from 8.30 pm onwards (check their Instagram for updates). They also open 'til midnight which makes this place a good spot for a late night hang.

Hog Wild with Chef Bruno Bali

Started in 2010 under another brand license, Chef Bruno Fortin, his wife Eva Claudio and his twins gained their independence in 2015 and rebranded as Hog Wild in Bali. The French chef who brought his culinary expertise to Bali combined forces with his wife who was responsible for the concept and atmosphere of the restaurant and created a fun, quirky dining establishment with great food in Bali. A year after that, they revamped their branding to Hog Wild with Chef Bruno (HWCB) and introduced their Brutal Martinis that are usually served with the hilarious “shake, shake, shake” dance rituals.

Hog Wild with Chef Bruno is one of the restaurants in Bali that is well-known for its delicious porks ribs. So of course when I went there, that’s exactly what I ordered. The meat was tender and juicy and the original sweet & tangy sauce covering the meat was delicious and super flavorful. I opted for hand cut fries and sweet potato fries for the sides and they were good too.

The laid-back restaurant has ample seatings with family style tables set up but I would recommend to call in and make a reservation in advance if you're coming with a big group.
