The Overview

Located within Hu'u Bar, Nutmegs recently received a facelift along with the introduction of chef Philip Mimbimi, an American who came to Bali by way of Montego Bay, Jamaica and Singapore's Four Seasons Hotel. Mimbimi combines his knowledge of faraway places with the local cuisine to create an internationally minded menu, embracing indigenous ingredients like red organic rice, shallots, lemongrass, cloves, honey and locally caught seafood. One dish he's especially proud of is bakar, lemongrass-laced tuna marinated in turmeric and served with Balinese purple potato and passion fruit sauce. Though it's a few years old, the open-air dining room still looks chic, with an open kitchen where local spices are displayed in jars. Ideally situated for post-dinner nightclubbing, Nutmegs draws a crowd "who like to indulge elegantly," says Mimbimi.
