French pastries and comfort food: Livingstone Bakery<\/h2>\n

This recently opened bakery and caf\u00e9 at 88 Jalan Petitenget is huge, with two light-flooded floors and a chilled outside space. From croissants to cookies, everything is baked in-house. The menu \u2013 from brunch staples and burgers to pasta, pies and steaks \u2013 has real comfort food appeal. Wooden fittings and pretty pot plants add to the casual atmosphere. It\u2019s only been open a few months, but already there are plans for pop-up music performances, a scone and sparkling wine afternoon tea menu, and upstairs exhibition space.<\/p>\n

Asian street food with a sophisticated twist: Mama San<\/h2>\n

The 1920s-colonial-Britain-in-Asia aesthetic gets a contemporary makeover at this two-storey warehouse on Jalan Raya Kerobokan. It\u2019s not just the striking mural of gentlemen\u2019s club madam Mama San or the pumping upstairs cocktail bar that sees this place regularly book out \u2013 it\u2019s the food. From an Indian lamb and chana dahl curry to a grilled Thai beef salad, roasted Peking duck and Vietnamese spring rolls, the menu confidently roams the continent giving classic dishes a modern twist.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
