Bali Palace Indonesia

Bali Palace Indonesia serves authentic Indonesian cuisine, offering dishes such as Soto Betawi, Nasi Bali, and Ayam Penyet. Conveniently located just a stone’s throw away from the Mandarin Oriental Geneva, the restaurant features a simple yet charming decor with Indonesian touches, including Batik tablecloths and rattan hats.

For my meal, I ordered the Nasi Padang, which came with rice, beef rendang, tofu, egg, and vegetables, along with a serving of cendol (a traditional Indonesian dessert made of tapioca jelly, coconut milk, brown sugar, and jackfruit) and Kue Lapis (layered cake).

Each dish tasted authentic, with a comforting homemade touch. The beef rendang was rich and tender, infused with deep, aromatic spices. The vegetables, tofu, and egg complemented the dish well, making for a well-balanced plate. The cendol was creamy with just the right amount of sweetness, and the tapioca jelly was soft yet slightly chewy, adding a delightful texture. As for the Kue Lapis, it was moist, buttery, and had a subtle hint of vanilla—an excellent way to end the meal.

I thoroughly enjoyed the food and would love to return to try other dishes if I find myself in Geneva again. Highly recommended for anyone craving an authentic Indonesian dining experience!
