Spring Rolls.

Who doesn’t love a perfectly crispy spring roll? Called lumpia in Bali. Spring rolls have been a popular snack in Asia for centuries.  They originated in China and were eaten at spring time. They started as a pancake filled with the new season’s spring vegetables.

Bebek Betutu – Balinese Duck.

Bebek Betutu – Balinese Duck – This is the only way you want your duck.  Bali’s most famous dish. The method of preparation is unique. To make the meat really tender, the outside and inside of the duck is rubbed and filled with Balinese spices. It is wrapped with the bark of the areca palm tree and buried with coconut fibres. It is cooked very slowly until it is so tender that the meat falls off the bone and melts in the mouth. It is served with vegetable lawar and yellow rice. The Balinese only eat this dish on special ceremonial occasions.

Iga Bakar – Pork Spare Ribs.

They are tender … you don’t need a knife … just a fork. Or better still … use your hands! The sauce is a Murni’s Warung invention, kind of like a BBQ sauce but not really. It has a natural sweetness, but not too sweet. It’s tangy and mouth watering. The ribs come with a choice of french fries or white rice.

Cheeseburger.

One of our original dishes from 1974. The Cheeseburger was invented in 1920 in Pasadena, California, an amazing 20 years after the hamburger. Lionel Sternberger (no pun intended), a cook at his father’s sandwich shop, ‘The Rite Spot’, decided to place a slab of cheese on top of a hamburger, inventing one of the world’s most loved dishes. 150 gram beef patty, mozzarella cheese, cheddar cheese, caramelized onions, lettuce, sliced tomatoes and pickles. Served with french fries.

Club Sandwich.

Several places claim to be the creator of this classic layered sandwich. The famous Saratoga Club House in Saratoga Springs, New York in 1894 as well as the Union Club of New York City, take credit for creating the club sandwich, short for clubhouse. The latest theory is that  ‘club’ is  an acronym for ‘chicken lettuce under bacon’. Chicken slices, bacon, lettuce, tomato, boiled egg, cheese and mayonnaise. Served with cassava chips.

Mary’s Grandmother’s Scrumptious Apple Pie.

Mary’s Grandmother’s Scrumptious Apple Pie  – home made goodness at its very best, made even better if you add ice cream!

We all know the expression ‘as American as apple pie’ but this tastiest of tasty desserts did not actually come from America nor did the apples. According to Pliny, the Romans cultivated 23 different varieties of apples  and brought some to England. The first mention of apple pie was in 1381 in England. Captain John Smith, and the other English settlers, brought apple seeds and cuttings from England’s best fruit trees to the English settlement in Jamestown, Virginia, the first permanent English settlement in America, in 1607.

The Dutch brought apples to Indonesia from Australia in the 1930s.

We use the best apples and make sure that the pie has a unique, flaky, buttery crust and texture, and we serve it warm to improve the flavour.
