An area with green rice fields and a black sandy beach just north of popular Seminyak, Canggu has become a trendy choice for holidaymakers looking to spend their leisure time in Bali.

Long popular as one of the island’s best surfing destinations, Canggu has also developed into a culinary hub, with a wide variety of restaurant settings and styles.

From chilled and laidback surfer shacks to ultra luxurious restaurants, Canggu definitely offers many dining options for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Adding to Canggu’s map of eateries is Bistro. C at Canggu Club, which opened only two months ago. Overlooking the iconic Canggu Club lawn, Bistro. C offers an evolving seasonal menu in a warm and sophisticated atmosphere.

“Our idea is to have something for everyone. For families, young people, older people and all nationalities, we have designed the menu to cater to various tastes,” said Sally Bateman, sales and marketing manager of Semara Collection, which manages Canggu Club.

Utilizing the various skills and experiences of an enthusiastic team of international chefs hailing from the likes of France and India, Bistro. C has been able to draw on its broad repertoire to bring diners a comprehensive menu of street food-inspired dishes that will definitely leave patrons with only one dilemma: what do I choose?

With a focus on fresh, quality produce, the extensive menu caters for a multitude of dining and dietary preferences and requirements, from breakfast through to dinner.

For grazing, Rice Paper Summer Rolls (poached prawns, carrot, cucumber, bean sprouts, glass noodles, aromatic herbs, peanuts with sweet chili dipping sauce) is recommended.

For mains, there is a choice of soups, salads, burgers and sandwiches, as well as pastas and pizzas. Signature dishes include Lamb Shank Pot Pie and Cajun Fish Po’Boy Burgers. The Surf and Turf grilled Australian sirloin topped with skewered BBQ prawns is also a good option.

Those who love Asian food will definitely be satisfied with the offers in the Asian Corner, like the all-time favorites nasi goreng, mie goreng, as well as prawn and pumpkin Thai laksa. The Indian-style thali is a generous portion of dishes that includes butter chicken curry, Indian lentil curry and mixed vegetable curry, accompanied by steamed jasmine rice, wholemeal flour roti, pakora, papadum, mixed pickles and mango chutney, as well as sweet mango lassi.

Bistro. C also offers a comprehensive menu for the youngsters, including breakfasts and all-day dining options.

Patrons have the choice to enjoy al fresco dining around the newly revamped plantation-style bar with a view of the lush green lawns, or the option of cool air-conditioned and comfy banquette seating in the bistro area, which includes a private dining room that is perfect for meetings and special events.

The restaurant is open to the public from 5 p.m. However, members of Canggu Club and those who buy a day pass to the club are also welcome to dine here before 5 p.m. A day pass means patrons can enjoy all the facilities offered by Canggu Club.

For casual breakfasts, leisurely lunches, sunset cocktails and relaxed dinners, everyone can enjoy Bistro. C. Family friendly with a casual vibe, it is the perfect complement to Bali’s appealing island lifestyle.
