Culinary is a fashion that evolves to continue tempting gourmets’ taste buds all over the world. Chefs’ newly created dishes with harmoniously balanced blends of flavor and texture in the culinary world will always tickle someone’s palate and digestive system. Chef Nyoman Wijana at Tlaga Singha totally understands this constantly growing culinary trend. His pulse as a well-experienced chef in his specialty for decades, Indonesian food, has inspired his gastronomic intelligence to create “Chef Kendi.”
Kendi is a well-known, artfully shaped tube of clay in an earthy brown color that islanders use to serve special foods in traditional Balinese fashion at occasional events. Chef Kendi is the chef’s most recent special food creation at Tlaga Singha. On the menu, the chef intuitively selects the finest seafood ingredients, such as shrimp, crab, lobster, scallops, and squid, blends them with vegetables, and serves them with the rich flavors of homemade sauce: sweet, sour, spicy, and super yummy. This surely will whet the appetite of foodies visiting the site and make them drool.
The chef will enthusiastically carry the food himself from the kitchen, and servers will follow behind him. This unexpected parade may curiously surprise others in the dining area. The chef alone, as the creator, will serve the food at the table. Interestingly, he pours the food in an attentive manner from the kendi onto the set-up table, in a traditional Balinese family dining style called “Megibung.” It literally translates as “sharing food on one big plate together.” The presentation will unusually excite everyone in the circle, whet their palates, and surprise their digestive systems. They will almost certainly hold their breath while looking at a tempting dish and swallow their drool the sooner they smell the smoky, wafting aroma as the food emerges on the table.
This special food’s unique presentation will make your dining experience exceptionally memorable for the entire family. Chef Kendi is a set menu for family dining that serves an entire dish, from appetizers to desserts, ideally for a four-person family to celebrate dining out together and strengthen family bonds. It’s a must-try for a family or bestie gathering when a meal becomes an effective communication medium to stick everyone together. Always treasure your family and besties.
