As if Bali’s dining hub Jalan Petitenget wasn’t hot enough, it goes and adds to the line-up a fiery South American BBQ joint in the form of Barbacoa. Hope you’re hungry…
In a nabe with a rep for housing some of the best restaurants to be found on the Isle of the Gods, it’s really no mean feat to stand out from the crowd – but that’s precisely what Barbacoa does best. Whether you’re talking looks, taste or atmosphere, this is one original recipe.
Along with eye-catching, rustic-industrial warehouse digs (hellooo cavernous high ceilings, chic mosaic floors, rough stone walls and leather banquettes), the BBQ tavern comes complete with a tranquil back patio overlooking sprawling rice paddies. But the stars of the show are undoubtedly the wood-burning ovens, fire pits and smoky parrilla grills, which slow-cooked 8-hour asado of the day to perfection under the watchful eyes of Aussie chefs Adam and Sean. Burn, baby, burn!
