Melt-in-the-mouth tender and packed with flavours, dry-aged beef is exquisite. Over the past few years, the culinary world has seen rising interest in beef which has been dry-aged, particularly sought out by gourmets and foodies. At Boy‘N’Cow, a Steakhouse & Lounge in Seminyak, they offer several cuts of 28-day dry-aged beef, from the 280gr Striploin to the 1kg Tomahawk, all, grain-fed Black Angus, either from Australia or USA.

Knead, pull, bang… and again and again! Not often you’ll find authentic Chinese hand-pulled noodles in warung or restaurant in Bali. Well, now, in Ubud, you can have a taste of freshly made noodles in an exquisite Bakmi Karet at Fu Shou Noodle Club.
