Bali Cafe

109 NE 2nd Ave
Miami, FL 33132
305-358-5751
One can only marvel at how this humble little 30-seat eatery can so effortlessly create fresh, beautiful, authentic, delicious, steamy hot cuisine from between $8.95 - $14.95 per plate, when million-dollar restaurants overstaffed with pedigreed cooks charge three times as much and have difficulty just getting the "steamy hot" part down. Cubes of beef rendang get cooked for hours in coconut milk and spices, as do chicken legs, called opor ayam. Each dish can be savored individually, or together in nasi goreng. Bali's version is centered by a mound of sweet and oniony fried rice (which is what nasi goreng translates to), and also encompasses steamed broccoli, bean sprouts, fried egg, garlicky rice crackers, and a pickled mix of carrot and cucumber. Great stuff, as is lontong cap go meh, the same chicken and beef accompanied by steamed chayote in a sweet coconut broth yellowed with turmeric. Bali Café's rijsttafel for two ($17.95 per person) includes miso soup, salad, two appetizers, a few main course tastings, steamed rice, and a dessert of es sarang burung -- sweet gelatin with choice of lychee, longan, or rambutan.
