As I stepped into the vibrant atmosphere of Journey of Taste located at Jl Raya Sesetan No 580B, I was immediately enveloped by the tantalizing aromas wafting from the kitchen. This culinary gem in South Denpasar, Bali, is not just a restaurant; it’s a delightful journey through the rich flavors of Malaysian and Singaporean cuisine.

Now, let’s talk about the food! The menu is a treasure trove of options, but I was particularly drawn to their signature dishes. I started with the Chicken Fried Noodles, which was a delightful medley of flavors and textures. The noodles were perfectly cooked, and the chicken was tender and juicy. It was a dish that truly showcased the essence of comfort food.

Next up was the Buttermilk Chicken, a dish that has garnered rave reviews from fellow diners. One visitor exclaimed, “Best Chinese food in Bali. Very recommended, try their asam manis, OMG, tasty!” I couldn’t agree more. The buttermilk coating was rich and creamy, with just the right amount of seasoning that left me craving more.

For my final dish, I opted for the Chicken Fried Kway Teow. The flavors were bold and satisfying, and I could see why another guest mentioned, “The kwetiau is delicious.” It was a perfect blend of savory and slightly sweet, making it a standout dish on the menu.

As I savored each bite, I was reminded of the diverse culinary influences that shape the food here. The restaurant offers a variety of dishes, including Hainan Rice, Hong Kong Duck Noodles, and even Pork Knuckle, which have all received high praise from patrons. One enthusiastic diner noted, “They have an excellent taste of Malaysian or Singapore Chinese food. This is one of the best.”

To wash it all down, I couldn’t resist trying their Three Layer Coffee, which was a delightful end to my meal. The rich, layered flavors were a perfect complement to the savory dishes I had enjoyed.

In conclusion, Journey of Taste is a must-visit for anyone looking to dive deep into the culinary culture of Bali. With its excellent food, attentive service, and inviting atmosphere, it’s a place where you can truly appreciate the art of cooking.

Citra

If you’re ever in Bali and find yourself in the Sesetan area, you absolutely have to check out Journey of Taste. Seriously, this place is a gem! With a perfect score of 5.0 for food and service, you know you’re in for a treat. The atmosphere is cozy too, scoring a solid 4.7, making it a great spot for lunch or dinner.

Now, let’s talk about the food. The menu is packed with delicious options, but I’ve got to highlight a few standouts. The Chicken Fried Noodles (Mie Goreng Ayam) are a must-try – they’re packed with flavor and just the right amount of spice. Then there’s the Buttermilk Chicken (Ayam Mentega Susu), which is simply the best! It’s crispy, juicy, and oh-so-satisfying. And don’t sleep on the Chicken Fried Kway Teow (Kuetiau Goreng Ayam) – it’s a delightful twist on a classic dish that you won’t regret ordering.

One customer shared their experience, saying they were always satisfied with all the menu items. They had just moved to Denpasar and were craving a late-night meal. They spotted Journey of Taste on Gojek and were curious if it was the same as the one in Jimbaran. After ordering, they were immediately reassured by the presence of crackers and pickled cucumbers – it felt like home! They mentioned that the taste hasn’t changed since the food truck days, which is a huge plus. The kangkung (water spinach) was particularly praised, although they noted that the flavor varied slightly on different visits. But the Buttermilk Chicken? Absolute perfection!

Another customer chimed in about the good Chinese food and recommended it through Gojeg. They mentioned that the restaurant offers a mix of Malaysian and Singaporean flavors, with an ala carte menu featuring Hainan Rice, Hong Kong Duck Noodles, Pork Knuckle, Nasi Campur Babi, and seafood dishes. Sounds delicious, right? They said it’s definitely recommended!

One thing to keep in mind is that while the food is aromatic, it can be a bit ginger-heavy. So, if you’re not a fan of ginger, make sure to pair your meal with the sambal sauce they provide to kick up the flavor a notch.

Overall, Journey of Taste is a fantastic spot that I can’t wait to return to whenever I’m back in Bali. The food is amazing, the service is top-notch, and the vibe is just right. Don’t miss out on this culinary adventure!
