Bali Indonesia Geneva

Escape to Ubud without a plane

Stefi from Geneva

About me “Where are you going again this time?” my friends always ask me. Yes, I admit it: I get restless if I don’t move. Travelling is a way of being, exploring the world is my greatest passion. I am a victim of wanderlust, and I just love it. Originally from Italy, I arrived in Geneva in 2003 to join the world of international organizations. Thanks to my job, I have traveled ...
""Bali Indonesia" in Geneva is like you're actually thrown to Bali. It's fast, cheap, popular, and just perfect. Come early to avoid the crowds for lunch!"

I couldn’t believe a place like Bali Indonesia existed, tucked away inside a lovely park in a neighbourhood known for international organizations and embassies. I’m in the heart of cosmopolitan Geneva, and then bam – I’ve landed in Bali.

There are five or six dishes each day: there is always Nasi Bali - rice mixed with meat and vegetables, in pure Indonesian style – as well as Laksa, the spicy noodle soup, and Gado-Gado, the vegetarian salad. The place is tiny, and always chock full of customers at lunchtime: it’s best to go before 1pm to avoid the crowd. I like their take-away, too: it’s fast, cheap, and just perfect.

The owners like to prepare their own noodles, and all ingredients are soooo fresh. Everything tastes amazing, even the ginger and apple drink they make in the winter to make me forget I live in a city where it rains too much. In warmer months, the sun-filled terrace right on the park is so peaceful.

I’ve been to Bali, I loved it, and I wished it were closer. At Bali Indonesia, it now is.

About me “Where are you going again this time?” my friends always ask me. Yes, I admit it: I get restless if I don’t move. Travelling is a way of being, exploring the world is my greatest passion. I am a victim of wanderlust, and I just love it. Originally from Italy, I arrived in Geneva in 2003 to join the world of international organizations. Thanks to my job, I have traveled to small African villages, hidden valleys in the Himalayas, South American mountain tops, and Middle Eastern deserts. I have met people from all over the world and found out I can only thrive when I a...
