Beef Ribs at Warisan

The four of us (Wid, his bro, bro's wife, and I) went to Warisan to check out their beef ribs after we heard good things about this dish. We ordered the three person portion of the dish which came with 1.75 kg Black Angus beef ribs, salad, and French fries. We also ordered the French onion soup, warm shredded duck salad, a bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon, dessert platter, and some sort of cold vegetarian lasagna with balsamic vinaigrette which turned out to be a salad layered with flat noodles (looked like wonton skin to me). The onion soup was all right (I had better, like the one from By the Docks in Maryland) but I think their garlic soup is still much better. Too bad the garlic soup isn't in their regular menu anymore.

The main even was the beef ribs and they were wonderful!! I have to say it's the best beef I had in Bali so far. The meat was tender, juicy, and very flavorful, both smoky and beefy. The raw material itself was high quality and the chef did an excellent job of cooking the meat. The red wine complemented the meat perfectly. I also thought they did an excellent job of cooking the French fries. The desserts were great as usual and it's always good to end a meal on a high note.

The meal for the four of us ended up costing around 2 million rp. Most of the cost came from the beef (990,000 rp) and the wine (440,000 rp), but it was well worth the price because we had an excellent time and the food was fantastic. This meal was definitely much better than my previous experience at Warisan (they ran out of duck confit and the duck dish I ended up ordering was so salty that I couldn't eat it). I still don't know what happened with the previous time because all the other times we've been to Warisan, we had really excellent food.

I told Wid's dad about our experience and now he wants to try the beef. Hehe.
