Just back from my gym workout, found that I have lost weight (maybe due to my recent situation...) Should I be happy about it?
Anyway, this post will be showing the ending of my Day 1 Bali trip. Since we enjoyed the view of the beautiful sunset at Pura Uluwatu, therefore we missed the chance to enjoy dinner with the sunset at Jimbaran beach.
Initially, I planned to eat dinner at Lia Cafe at Jimbaran Beach, but our driver persuaded me that he can bring me to another restaurant - New Matahari Cafe which is cheaper and the tax is waived. Therefore, we just gave it a try on his suggestion. We ordered the dinner set which consists of fish, prawns, crabs, lobsters, cuttlefish and other grilled seafood... I enjoyed the lobsters a lot because the taste was delicious and the meat was fresh! We spent IDR 175,000 per person (the most expensive meal of the trip). However, we couldn't finish the meal, so we packed it and continue to enjoy the meal in our hotel room!
Based on my colleague's recommendation, it is very romantic to enjoy the sunset on Jimbaran beach while having your dinner. However, although we couldn't see the sunset on the beach, we also love the candlelight dinner there (though it was a bit dark, and cannot really see our food). My mum complained that the chairs which we were sitting on the beach were sinking because the beach sand is too fine!! It would be a perfect place for the couples that come here for their honeymoon!

After we had a very full dinner, we checked in to the hotel we booked - Best Western Kuta Beach. I quite like this hotel as the hotel is just located 5 mins walk from Kuta Beach. And then the room seems new and they provided free WIFI service in your room and free internet service in the lobby area. I like the LCD TV in the room too, we can watch many different TV channels in different languages! The only thing to complain about is the bathroom, where the glass was a bit transparent which lacked privacy!
