Journey Through the Archipelago

Everyday at Kaum Bali

Words By Radit Mahindro

From ancient rice terrace to untouched coastlines, Indonesia’s evocative landscapes are an endless source of inspiration for the Kaum kitchen. The archipelago is vast, and its diversity lends itself to a range of exotic tastes.

We invite you to indulge in our journey through the islands, where fragrant spices with aphrodisiac and curative properties are met by aromatic coconut oil and the ubiquitous black nut known as kluwek; where piquant chili peppers are paired with Balinese heritage rice; and where an assortment of fresh sambas will amuse your distinguished taste buds.
