Bali Culinary : Dirty Duck Diner


When I was in Bali, I had a great lunch at Dirty Duck Diner. It’s a very nice place to relax and enjoy your leisure time. It has garden with many sculptures and koi ponds. The back view is a paddy field.

As you may know, most of Balinese are Hindus, which means they don’t eat beef. Most of foods are made of pork, chicken, or duck. Me, I don’t eat red meat, including pork (some people said that pork isn’t red meat – it’s pink), shark, or whale. I prefer fish but chicken is great too.

So I ordered this Chicken Pelalah and Mixed Rice in Dirty Duck Style. Seems like Chicken Pelalah is very spicy with red sauce all over the chicken and I rate the spiciness with 7. And for the Mixed Rice, it was delicious too after I put sambal (chili sauce) on it. They serve with 3 kinds of sambals : raw, salty, and oily. All of those sambals are taste so good.

With those foods, I ordered two drinks. Lime juice which was so fresh and sour (didn’t put much sugar to it). And this ice lemon honey lemon grass soda tasted so perfect that day.

Where have I been last week...


Hello, I’m back. Sorry for not posting any story in the last week. I went on business trip to Bali. I know, Bali means vacation, but I really went there for business purpose.

But yeah, of course, I extended my stay and had a little not-business-trip. I went to Seminyak and Ubud in Bali to give my eyes some refreshment. FYI, Seminyak and Ubud are about 1 hour distance one to another but both are well known as art village in Bali.

Unfortunately, art market in Ubud are closed due to renovation but there are still other enticing places in Ubud to explore.

Old Pictures


     Found a flash drive I used in college. Instead of research scrap, pictures take most of the capacity. I played with those pictures and here are the results. These are how I looked few years ago. It's funny to see how much I've changed.



Peace. Early 2009.

Bitten by Alice Cullen. Late 2008.

Lost this sunnies at school. Early 2008.

Longest hair I had in the last six years. Late 2007.




And this is my pick today :
