Jimbaran Beach Sunset Dining

Looks like its a beach day! We headed to Jimbaran Beach for sunset dinner. We didn't get to select which restaurant to dine in because our driver "suggested" us to dine in one that he have 'business' with (I bet)

Since we have no idea which one to go either, we stick to his suggestion. Seriously, there is a whole row of restaurant and bar along the beach. You not need to go to the one "suggested" but you might risked getting cursed by the local.





BBQ corn as appetizer!



Okay, its time for food review and this time its gonna be a nasty one!

I always tried to avoid negative comment/review but this one seriously hits me! Not so much about the food nor the price. We were so readied to pay the tourist price to dine in a tourist area. This meal on the table cost roughly RM300 (2pax). Nothing really special about the seafood as most are grilled. The crab is kinda small but it's fresh.

What I was so unhappy with is the local's attitude! They (He to be precise) seems to 'look down' on us Asian!

I can totally felt it! His face was grumpy when he passed us the menu. He do not even bother to introduce us what to eat.

He NEVER greet nor smile at ALL time even when ushering us to our seat, taking order or delivering our food. When we ask for something, he may just walk off as if we are invisible.

What really made me felt MAD is that he transformed into one of those shoe-licking-cat in front of a caucasian (who's drinking beer only). He treated him the way a tourist should be treated like. He talk to him and smile politely all the way.

And I thought he does not speak English or most likely suffered from some rare-face-muscle-cramp-diseases or something. Oh, maybe constipation??!

I seriously do not understand why we were treated in such a dreadful way. They were few other Asians too in that restaurant. I kept an eye on him and they were treated the same way we were being treated.

Okay, maybe i was a bit more sensitive cos the others doesn't gave a d#@m about his services. I mean, what's wrong with him? Its not like we are sitting there for free. Hello, we are paying for our romantic sunset dinner and he just screwed up our afternoon.

Conclusion, if you do not wish to destroy your supposed-to-be romantic sunset dinner, please AVOID JIMBARAN!!!
