Spice by Chris Salans offers an affordable experience of the culinary genius of Chris Salans, the founder of Mozaic restaurant, which applies French cooking techniques to Indonesian ingredients. This approach has become an influential movement, propelling Chef Salans to celebrity in Southeast Asia and beyond. Chris Salans is Bali’s acclaimed culinary ambassador having received multiple international awards and having brought the culinary spotlight to the island of Bali for 20 years now and going.

At Spice, all ingredients are locally sourced, with an emphasis on the surprising flavors and healing properties of Indonesia’s aromatic roots, herbs, and spices. The cuisine joyfully combines the humble and the precious, as in Slipper lobster with curry-leaf butter and tempé, or Snapper carpaccio with tamarind croutons and rujak.

Properly described as a gastro-bar, Spice by Chris Salans excels at innovative cocktails built around fresh ingredients, whole spices, and fine imported spirits. Here the chef and the mixologist collaborate closely and are happy to design bespoke cocktails that pair ingeniously with a particular dish. There is also a good selection of wines. All this, and the smart attentive service, makes Spice a favored hangout for hipsters and foodies.

"Spice exudes a decidedly relaxed atmosphere and has an affordable menu of locally inspired dishes. Given the modest prices, piling up plates is tempting, but be warned: Portions are hefty. My special Spice Salad was filled with so many flavorful elements —mango, lemongrass, avocado, fried tempeh, radish, fresh chile —I almost didn’t have room for my side of crispy cassava root fries with “basa gee espuma,” a kind of whipped-foam aioli. Almost." - The New York Times
