Chocolate is Good For You
It has been almost four months since our family arrived on the island of Bali. I have to say that I'm already feeling like a local. I know where to go for the best cup of coffee, freshest grilled mahi mahi, shadiest spot on the beach, and even the best place to buy diapers in bulk.
There's no question that the hands down winner of our favorite restaurant; especially for the mind blowing chocolate desserts goes to the Casa Luna Restaurant located in the bustling mountain town of Ubud. Chocolate mousse, chocolate decadence, flourless chocolate cake – you name it, they make it and along with the ambiance, it's magical!
Built on a lush, steep ravine; Casa Luna is the successful dream child of powerhouse Bali expat, Janet De Neefe, who arrived on the island in 1974 and has built an iconic empire that includes two fabulous restaurants (Casa Luna & Indus), a world famous cooking school, and a charming hotel in downtown Ubud called the Honeymoon Guesthouses. She is the author of a delicious book called "Fragrant Rice" and also spearheaded the Ubud Writers and Readers Festival which is gaining tremendous momentum. Last October, the festival attracted internationally acclaimed guest writers including Fatima Bhutto and Wole Soyinka.
