Have you ever heard about Bali strawberry? This place has a lot of secrets. You will find somethings that you didn't get it in the city. Fresh air, beautiful scenery, and the most important is the meaningful of foods.
This place is located in Bedugul, North Bali. It was near a hill. On the way to go I saw vegetables plantation in every side of road. In my opinion, the local people job in this area is farming. They cooked vegetables from their own plantation, and ate fruits from their own plantation too. It was very interesting for me to see the people routine. The rest of it, they sold it to the market. Market would distribute it to the city. That is why if we buy vegetables or fruits in the city, it will be no longer fresh. I understand now.
Let's back to our destination place :) . Bali strawberry has their own strawberry plantation too. You can see how strawberries grow there. This place sells everything contains with strawberry with very reasonable price. I am interested to try many kinds of food that listed on the menu. I ordered strawberry pizza, strawberry cap cay, strawberry fried rice, and strawberry pancake. Not only foods, it also sells strawberry beverages. It takes strawberry directly from their plantation. Very fresh and amazing! I really enjoyed the view and the tasted of the foods. It was very unique for me. The concept and the taste were unfamiliar. Usually people add sausage, egg, and vegetables in their fried rice or cap cay. In this place, they add strawberry in their fried rice and cap cay, so that the taste become very unique and unfamiliar.
I spent $3 for fried rice, $3,5 for cap cay, $4 for pancake. I couldn't remember the price for the beverages. I got many bonuses while there. Fresh air, beautiful view, knowledge about strawberry plantation, and the most important is an unique taste!
You wanna try too? :)
