It’s just Tapas 🤷♀️
It’s a very popular and lovely located restaurant just behind the Belmond Hotel in Jimabaron. It’s
basically a tapas bar in a restaurant setting. Food is very pricy but great quality. So don’t expect
alacarte menu it’s just tapas.

OurConcept
Expect a casual experience both in feel and pricing and totally focused on food: we save on
luxurious tableware and never compromise on quality. We offer small portions so you can try
more and a unique signature menu meant to be shared.

We start by getting the basics right: the most amazing ingredients carefully selected and sourced
exclusively from Indonesia to maximize freshness, support local farmers and growers and
showcase the uniqueness of delicious local products.

Chef Kevin studies each ingredient, finds out how it is traditionally used to understand its
potential and then prepares it applying western techniques developed through a painstaking
international career in some of the world best restaurants.

The vast range of great products available in Indonesia is truly inspirational and works
amazingly to create delicious new western dishes. Furthermore, saving on import costs helps us
to keep menu prices moderate by Bali standards. Prices start from Rp. 45,000.

Pop-Ups
Cuca has pulled-off some of the most unique and memorable dining events of the last few years,
wowing crowds of discerning patrons in iconic venues across Asia: in Bali at Mandapa – a Ritz
Carlton Reserve, in the Philippines at Shangri-La Hotel Makati, in Jakarta at Pullman Hotel,
Basque Restaurant and Cassis Kitchen, in Australia at Polperro Winery in Mornington
Peninsula and Voyager Estate in Margaret River, among many others.

Our Gastro Tour has been shaking-up and stirring conventional dining formats and canapé
receptions, with its ultra-contemporary, ‘think outside the box’ concept of magically crafted
canapés and signature bites inventively presented and paired with fine international wines.

We hand-pick jaw-dropping venues in exceptional locations so if you think yours should be next,
please let us know and we will include you in our bigger, bolder and more fabulous next gastro
tour. We will guide you through every single detail, nothing is left to chance. We only expect

insightful speech, Chef Kevin is a remarkable public speaker, having contributed as keynote
presenter in international gastronomic events such as Madrid Fusion (both in Madrid and
Manila), Australian Hotel Association Conference in Perth, FHA Singapore, Enterprise
Takeaway by BFM radio in Malaysia and Food & Travel Reader Awards in Mexico to name a
few.

Cuca Salts are meticulously handcrafted by our Chef to capture the soul of traditional Balinese
flavors. The perfect souvenir to take back home!

We start from a magical salt blessed by the unique nature of Bali and extracted by local farmers
following a thousand-year-old artisanal technique. We then infuse this salt with fresh essences
of deeply rooted Balinese ingredients to craft a delicious touch that you can definitely taste.
Cuca Salts are available in 5 touches, all vegetarian but each created especially to complement
different types of food: for pork, for poultry, for meat, for seafood and for veggies. Available in
Cuca or in selected shops around the island.
