Because of the above traditions, tourists will probably find the food at hotel dining rooms more to their liking. All the major hotels have excellent dining rooms and are competitively priced by international standards. Local restaurants catering to tourists are also springing up all over Bali. Your best bet is to check with your hotel concierge, telling him your food preferences so that he can point you in the right direction. Shopping Shopping is one of Bali's great delights.
Handicrafts are outstanding and make marvelous decorator items.
Paintings, woodcarvings, jewelry and silverware are great buys, but don't forget to declare all wooden items to quarantine on arrival back. Vibrantly colored textiles are also a pleasant surprise and, in many cases, at ridiculously low prices. If you take some of your favorite resort clothes and casuals to Bali, you can have them meticulously copied for an amazingly low cost. For very high quality Indonesian products, some of the best shops with the finest workmanship are at the Four Seasons Resort, the Grand Hyatt Resort and at Kupu Kupu Barong at Ubud. Take your camera with 3 times the amount of film you think you might need.
