Eating Our Way Through Bali & Singapore

A Very Long Post Told In Many, Many Pictures.

Three weeks of Bali and Singapore food bliss filled our honeymoon.  We often cook Asian-inspired food, but we really did forget how much we actually love Southeast Asian cooking.  When I woke up in Bali to my healthy, free breakfast, I couldn't help but begin to map out my day - of food.  Most days were 100% plan-free, with the exception of: We want to fit in four meals, if possible.  When one meal was done, we were always thinking about what we'd have next.

Now - in Bali, I really ate almost the same thing for lunch every single day.  I took a few pictures of this same meal, but not all of them.  Nasi Goreng and Mie Goreng are two of the most popular and common dishes in Bali - and every restaurant, cafe, or shop makes it entirely different!  So - I thought I'd have to try out my fair share of Mie Goreng (fried noodles) to see what styles I liked best...

So here it is.  Some shots from our wonderful honeymoon.  Please note with all the bold this blog can show, these photos do showcase some food that are on my intolerance list.  I'm aware of it, but I took the photo any way.  You only live once and I wasn't about to miss any meal opportunity while on my honeymoon in Bali!! (Mind you - I did behave...most "cheats" were J's and I simply got to try it).
