Mykonos

Having Greek meals in Bali for nevertheless experiencing the true ambience of its eye-catchy islands, it would definitely be bumping for “Mykonos” at your first priority. A Greek-specialized restaurant, situated in the city center of Seminyak, precisely at Laksamana Oberoi Street is a place where they please the visitors.

First impression of coming was that, I’d say the designation restaurant is intended for the visitors to feel the ambiance of casualty supporting by "open restaurant" atmosphere (there are seats facing road under its veranda); wherein the white-color-cement floor and typical colored wall of “Greek Blue” can be found inside the restaurant. Now the big question is, how its specialties arouse us?

Given credit to my first impression of the menu sightseeing, the prices appeared are seemingly within my expectation. Appetizers and main courses range at Rp20,000-Rp50,000 and Rp50,000-75,000, respectively, wherein neither too cheap nor expensive (in a flash I remember the massive Euros that spent for for-two Greek seafood platter in Napoli). Essentially, the tastes of provided meals were very close to the real Greek meals that I’ve ever been tasted of. The use of “Humus” (sort of mashed-peanut, mixed with herbs) is a must of every served appetizer. Baked eggplants and tomato are bound to be key materials of every specialty, wherein of course extra virgin olive oil is strongly appeared within it in both form and taste.

In my opinion, the Greek meals are mainly derived by the taste of sour (from the combination of strong use of olive oil cooked with tomato, eggplants, and humus as well). That is why the freshness of vegetables is so critical to the meals, and the punctuality of "time of cook" matters in the process.

Have a try!
