First of all, we got up at ridiculous a clock....
So we decided all to have a moonbath and go on an early walk across the grounds and beach to catch some spooky athmosphere....
Our lads love Zak Bagans from TV's Ghost Adventures (notice generation gap interests)

Around 2.30 AM - the ghostly hour : i felt kinda stupid going out in the pitch dark but hey that's the TV-show ghost adventures in a nuttshell anyway and what the younger generation likes .....
We got back and went straight to the Taman Gita breakfast room at 6.30 AM.
At the entrance they check your room number, take your temperature and hand out a mask if you forgot yours.
A polite notice mentions to please wear a mask when delving into the buffet.
The place has been redecorated with more socially distanced tables, but you can also sit outside.
Every table has a jar full of table numbers sheets and you take one with you as you order at the cook to order live stations,
You give them the table number sheet and when your hot order is done, they deliver it at your table.
An refurbishment improvement noticed.....
To reach the outdoor patio, now much easier via an automated sliding door
The notice about the mask, but then again some masks are more obvious then others

Table number sheet to show at live cooking station
Staff were very friendly and the cooks at the live station were eager to explain the options and the ability to customise your order.
Food tasted fresh and there was a good choice between western, local, indian and healthy hipster flavours. Traditional herbal drink Jamu was also offered, a mix of spices and roots

Servers were very polite and prompt clearing empty plates and cups so the restaurant stayed clean and neat and did not have a messy impression. Excellent hospitality in the early morning.
+ excellent barrista made coffees !
good for the early caffeine kick
Traditional Jamu herbal drink is available - hipster LA would be proud!
