Bali Kitchen

Just went to Bali Kitchen in the East Village for lunch.  I think it's a great addition to the neighborhood.  Everything was really tasty and fresh, and really well cooked - it's a fast casual type place with only a few seats - I think most of their business will be takeout.  It's run by two older Indonesian guys - both are really nice.  As we were enjoying our lunch there, they even brought us over a little basket of various crackers.

Crackers on the house... I think the white and colored ones were some kind of fish cracker - and the bubbly ones were barley/oat crackers... more shrimp crackers on the bottom.

 

The cost including tax/tip was $42 - which included the sate lilit, shrimp crackers, rendang and fish...  We thought everything was really well prepared - we felt like it was a good value.  We will definitely be going back.

Looks like a good value. I've passed by the place and picked up their takeout menu. It looks like they actually have several specifically Balinese dishes on their menu, which is unusual in New York. Too bad they have no babi guling, though. :-)
