Keng's Cafe Culture | BALI
Bali is, next to Amsterdam, a place that I call home. I try and spend most of the year there and travel from there to explore more parts of Asia.
Bali is a place where cafe culture really came to be one of my greatest interests. It seems that with such ease, some of these cafes can pull off what other people can't. Maybe it is the power of the island, maybe it's just the good weather. Who will tell. All I know is that more and more great things pop up fast on Bali, but here you can find some of my favourites.
Expat Roasters
After leaving their location in Seminyak, @expatroasters reopened in Petitenget.
Being one of the only cafes, solely doing coffee, they can focus more on showcasing their own local produced coffees, wholesale and training.

The Slow
Technically not specifically a cafe. This beautiful hotel with only a few rooms has a truly beautiful restaurant with an amazing interior. Great food, amazing cocktails paired with nice music.

Hungry Bird
My absolute, all time favourite. This is where my fascination for cafe culture in Asia started for me. My first stop whenever I'm back in Bali. This understated cafe/roastery has set the bar when it comes to coffee quality in Indonesia. Showcasing great Indonesian and imported coffees, the awards and trophies on the shelves put a slightly serious note to the amazing relaxed and funny Canggu-ish kinda vibe.
These award winning professionals will make sure you'll have a great time. And I'm proud to call these amazing people my friends. When you visit this famous Canggu spot, tell them I've sent you.

Mad Pops Canggu
This amazing VEGAN ice cream has two locations. The first one that opened was in Seminyak. And now Mad Pops has made their mark in the populair Batu Bolong. Serving freshly made scoops and soft serves, all made from local ingredients. Topped of with sprinkles, home made dried fruits, chocolates and stroopwafels. Try the new taco cones with a soft serve mix.
Oh.. And don't forget to take you're mandatory inspirational quote photo.
