I had ordered Nasi Goreng, which had come with some chicken satay covered in peanut sauce

Food was positively fantastic. It was by far the best food we had the entire trip. Flavors were fresh and vibrant and dishes were executed perfectly. We enjoy the homestyle cooking that was well-done, without trying too hard. Prices were reasonable by western standards (and the quality of food we were eating) but expensive by Bali standards, as expected. We were perfectly satiated with just a main each for dinner. The evening satay was fantastic. The meat perfect
how far in advance did you schedule pickup?

did you ask re peanut sauce?

how did food price compare to other upscale, and quality compare to local?
(a number of years ago some here reported aman was less than FS bali)
