Hotel’s Food:
Quality and Hygiene

In Hospitality industry good quality and service for the sake of consumer satisfaction is essential and cannot be negotiated. In providing food and beverage, for instance, the hotels seemingly compete against one another to render special serving to their guests. Most starred-hotels in Sanur, Nusa Dua and Kuta have more than two restaurants each and prepare different menus and serving styles.

Bali Hyatt along with its pizzeria restaurant, for instance, serves the original Italian food like pizza, pasta and salad. These foods are authentic and served by a Chef who comes direct from the pizza country, Italy. With the expertise of the chef, the food is traditionally made by using pizza oven and wood-fired so its flavor is more delicious and scrumptious. “Pizza menu with two choices of serving, namely Bianca and Vegetariana, becomes the mainstay of our hotel. They are greatly favored by Italian and other tourists,” said Meutia Mahardika, Public Relations Manager of Bali Hyatt.
In the meantime, by relying on the captivating splendor of Sanur Beach, Griya Santrian Hotel provides Exotic Flavors of Griya Santrian with the menu Fresh Seafood Charcoal Grill. This special menu is served for dinner in combination with the Balinese and European style sauce according to guests’ taste. “Having dinner at beachfront location plus live performance becomes an attraction of its own for our hotel,” revealed Wayan Tamiartha, Resident Manager of Griya Santrian.
Different from Griya Santrian serving its seafood specialty, Puri Santrian offers one of its favorite menus named Grouper Herbal. This Thai dish made from fish delivers hot flavor. “This food is strongly spicy but it becomes one of the most favored dinner menus by Dutch tourists. Apart from its hot and salty taste, this food also offers a unique kind of serving and surely will tempt the appetite,” promoted I Wayan Subrata, Executive Chef of Puri Santrian.
Meanwhile, Nusa Dua area, known as exclusive resort, also presents its own distinctive treasure of delicacy. Melia Bali Villas & Spa Resort introduces menu choices that are identical to Spanish fare. Gratin Lamb Loin with Black Olives and Pistachio Costre Dijon Potato Puree with Sweet Vine Sauce are two choices of leading menus best favored by adventurous diners at Melia Bali. These lamb-based menus are deliberately processed by a Chef from Spain so that the typicality of its flavor remains original. “These Spanish delicacies with unique and scrumptious tastes are frequently requested for several occasions such as weddings and other parties,” uttered Nova Terita, Public Relations Manager of Melia Bali Villas & Spa Resort.
As if the Inna Putri Bali did not want to ignore the exotic enchantment of Nusa Dua Beach, it also serves the fresh Seafood Barbeque. This delectable serving with Balinese sauce is non-cholesterol seafood. “We prefer to choose the grilling method for this food to make its flavor more scrumptious, its color more attractive and so that the nutritional value of the seafood will not be lost,” said the Sous-Chef of the Inna Putri Bali, I Ketut Suweji.
Similar but different to that of Inna Putri Bali combining the food menu with the splendor of its beach, the Discovery Kartika Plaza with its Teppan Noodle Restaurant provides special Asian menus, namely teppanyaki, sushi and sashimi with the background of Kuta beach view. The food made from several fresh vegetables, meats and seafood is served in Oriental style. Visitors enjoy the food while watching the attraction of the astute chef on processing the food reserved. “As soon as it’s cooked, the food is served directly and certainly ready to taste while waiting for the next menu. It’s a pleasant experience to enjoy such freshly prepared food, isn’t it?” asked Dewi Shintawati, Public Relations Manager of Discovery Kartika Plaza Bali.
Distinctiveness of the menus on offer at respective hotels would without doubt become an attraction of its own to draw their consumers both inside and outside the hotel. Price certainly does not matter for a pleasure with a guarantee of quality and hygiene becoming the leading products of each hotel. (BTN/008)
